On Friday my school had a Mini Dance Marathon from 9-12 pm
along with some kids from the University of Iowa and I have to say it was one
of the best dances I had ever been to.
There weren’t a whole lot of people there but there was
enough to make it worth staying all three hours. At around ten o’clock one of our French
teachers did Zumba with us. After that I think it’s fair to say, my feet are
bruised and my muscles are screaming!
But having fun with friends and Zumba wasn’t the best part
for me. What I loved was there was no grinding, inappropriate dancing, no one
got kicked out, and everyone was just going crazy, dancing, jumping up and down
and having a good time. In my opinion, that is what school dances should be
like. We are there to have a good time, and in this case, help raise money for
kids with cancer. Friday night was just three hours of a handful of students getting
together and having a good time. One of my friends actually said that he was
going to leave half way through but when I was talking to him later he said
that he was glad that he stayed the whole time. If more people could see how
fun Friday was, maybe Homecoming and other dances could be different.
At regular school dances the majority of the dance floor is
taken up by people grinding all over each other. That’s not what I like to see.
I like seeing people smiling, laughing, singing at the top of their lungs,
jumping up and down and showing off those ridiculous dance moves you probably wouldn’t
show anywhere else.
I’m going to ask you guys something. Next time you go to a
school dance, maybe try to just have fun and go wild for once and see the
difference it makes. If you don’t like it, that’s your opinion and I can’t
change that for you but is it too much to ask you to try?
I think you’ll be surprised at how much fun you’ll have.
