Dances

I wanna say this should be talked about in the Prom topic but seeing as how not every school dance is prom I suppose it's a bit different.

Anyway, school dances are stupid... waste of money, waste of time. I went to 3 dances in my school career... 2 in middle school, 1 in Highschool... I was incredibly bored with it.

I've gone to about 10 dances....most were free to me...heres the run down:
1 in Middle School (Social)

6 Military Balls (3 at Plano East, 3 at Plano(2 a year for the past two years))

2 Homecomings (Sophomore and Junior year)

1 Prom (last Month)


Homecoming my Sophomore year was more expensive, b/c I actually cared AND I didn't have a date to Prom...costed me all of 60 dollars and altogether about 180, but the tux was on my parents.

Overall....a good thing if youre socialable, like me, but a waste of money otherwise

Yes. Yes! And people get all pissed when I tell them dances aren't something I enjoy doing. I'm not going to waste $130 on prom tickets when I'm not even a junior.

[FONT=arial]I don't like them much usually, since I can only slow dance (then again, anybody can :cross: ), so I don't really do much there. but this one time that a couple of my friends came, we basically goofed off and did stupid stuff during the fast songs, so we weren't standing around like wallflowers the whole time. people we didn't know actually joined in, lol. so dances can be okay I guess...[/FONT]

I think, as Transtic Nerve said, that they are such a waste of time. Im going into the 9th grade next year and so far all the dances Ive been to, sucked. They wouldnt even let us slow dance. Gay A$S principles.

They're alright if you ask me.. You get to meet up with your friends, listen to music -very loud, dance, eat, drink, smoke, etc.. and all the other crap that "supposedly" happens out the back or in the bathrooms and whatever.

The atmosphere at the last school dance I went to was great.

It really depends on whos there... if there are those crazy people, then its usually good and amusing... but if there are no crazy people, then it basically becomes just standing around, gossiping, eating, drinking, and basically boredom.

I hear ya will, .

2 Middle School
3 Mil Balls
1 Home comming
1 Valentines dance(vines high school)

Homecomming cost me......the ticket. cause i got dumped the week of, and said " f*ck it!!" and whent by myself, dressed more casual then averybody else, and stole 2 dates form ppl. :smirk:

Whent by myself to the valentines day dance, cause i ahd no date, and i'm not letting anythign spoil my dancing fun.

I had dates for each mil ball, and for my middle school dances(like they matter)

Pics from my Mil Ball dance can be seen in LP's thread in the picture forum, under the topic, "pictures of vegitto4 and Lost Prophet form last saturday" (which was actually feb. 17th)


All in all, there fun to go to, sometimes. But other times, to much drama is involved, and not enough fun. Way to expensive, but, sometimes it's worth it on the girls part. :naughty:

Hmm personally I was never a big fan of school dances, when I was in HS I was on the student congress (council). From Freshman to Junior Year I was one of the people responsible for setting up for the dances so I use to get in for free.

However I never really enjoyed myself at them always felt out of place, even though I can actually dance pretty well. In fact some of my worst experiences occured in the La Salle School dances. -__- Though that's something that should go into a Kevin's Most embrassing moments thread instead of here. I'll spare everyone the details.

Such strong opinions on school dances.Me i have been to all of the middle school dances and they were all right but i hate being told no on the slow dances.Otherwise they are alright you get to hang out with your friends and all so they arent that bad for me.

I just go along to have fun with my friends and make a complete *** of myself. I have not been to one social where I have not achieved either of those two goals, I'm sure of it.
Don't go to a social\dance\whatever expecting good music, thats just stupid, they only play poppy crap at ours, and I'm sure its the same everywhere, but the music fits the atmosphere, so make the most of it.

[color=009966]I went to a church dance on Friday. I wouldn't have gone if I had a choice, but my mom made me. She said that I had to go to at least one of the dances.... >.>;; Now, anyone who knows me knows that I HATE dancing and can't even dance if I tried. So I sat in the gym....until Ste and her friends tried to get me involved. They grabbed me by the arms and dragged me to the dancefloor. Luckily some friends of mine (who know how much I don't like dancing) saved me from my EVIL sister *glares at Ste* and we ran like heck. Oi.... That's going to be the last dance I go to for a looooong time....>.>;;[/color]

[FONT=arial]:therock:.....don't you mean Saturday?

actually, I only made a half-hearted [i]attempt[/i] to make you get up. Peggy and Frankie were the ones who actually got you out there. anyways, it's your own fault you had an awful time. what's the point of a dance if you don't do any dancing? *knock upside the head* [i]trying[/i] to separate yourself isn't gonna make things any better.[/FONT]

Never been to a dance in my life, other than one where I slow danced with some girl.

Most of the time they are horrible dances that play nothing but mixes (Bobby D is one of the guys here, God he sucks). I won't even listen to that for free, I'm certainly not going to pay a cover charge to listen to it.
