Dances at EFY
I think Kirri expects to much out of EFY dances. Like everything is suddenly gonna change b/c it has the three letters "EFY" in front of it. Teehee...she's cute. "I thought the boys would be nicer at EFY Dances.."
We had classes all day today. The classrooms get soo full you have to be quick to get where you want. You get to choose from three speakers each hour. I mostly went from Sister Jones to Brother Condie. They were cool classes I must admitt. I stayed awake. For lunch we had potatoes and rolls from the Copper Mill. Scrumcious.... After lunch, more classes....then laying around. I had a headache and toothache...then we had dinner which was like a chicken pattie (some type of meat?) with ham and cheese on it with rice. Wasn't bad, but I got a lil' sick after drinkin some pop. Stupid disgestive system. Curse you! Then soon after we went to the dance...dun dun dun....
So the counselors are going around pushing all these boys around to lonely girls making them dance together, it was funny. I leaned against the wall and Natalie came up and talked to me, and a couple more ppl did...but then they noticed that a boy was being pushed toward us by a counselor...after that everyone split leaving me alone there leaning against the wall. haha...poor kid..he was stuck with me and definately noticed everyone else had hurried away. So I danced with this boy. A 14 year old none the less. *shrugs* woo woo...
Then a Girls Choice came up...and a counselor tried to get this kid to dance with someone but he juss kinda walked away so the counselor found me and told me to go ask that boy basically in a "go sick him!" voice. So I did he was 16...*shrugs* woo woo...I don't even remember faces let alone names if I even got their names...
After doing a lil' line dance this nice sweaty kid noticed I was there alone and asked me to dance. That was awkward....he was going to escort me out on the floor...yeah, slow Sara didn't get that part...but he eventually got me to catch on and we went out and danced. Woowooo...He always seemed interesting from the start b/c he's in my Star group....He's 17 also from Garland. *shrugs*
Phil came up to me and grabbed both my hands at one point in time and asked if I knew how to swing dance. Oh gosh that boy reminds me soo soo much of his brother. The way they talk, having conversation is juss the same. Anyways....he did the same type of swing dance moments with me over and over....apparently he doesn't know anymore than that.... Yeah...holding both his hands and juss moving in the same way over and over...interesting...
Then after a couple more slow songs I sought out Cameron juss b/c I wanted to see his reaction when I asked him to dance b/c he's a funny, nervous and obviously in love with me kinda kid. I said hi to him earlier today and he did like a huge swallow. haha I found him after he got a drink and I grabbed him by the arm and told him he was dancing with me....I pulled him all the way across the floor, I even ran a lil' bit of the way.. hahaha...Then we danced.. His arms were stiff the whole time and like seemed to like squeeze me so I moved around loosely and tried to get him to loosen up. I did my own thing b/c he obviously didn't wanna talk...I sang and rocked back and forth like I was saying Hallaluha!...Anyways...great fun...He's a funny nervous lil' boy....
But But but......the highlight but also kinda creepy part of the night....once again I was leaning up against the wall when a slow song came on and they announced it was the last song....this lil' scrawny kid kinda like followed the wall and came up and asked me to dance. We went out and danced....asking each other questions. I asked how old he was he said 14....and he asked me ...and I said 17...and his jaw juss dropped open, "Are you serious?!" He asked where I lived....if I had my license...blah blah...He was in shock...
That was what the 14 yr olds usual reaction is when they find out how old I am. The impression I got from him was he was a 14 yr old that wanted to be an adult and now. He wanted a car of his own, to go to college, or at least be old enuff to drive. He kinda looked at my shirt and up and then told me I was pretty and he liked my hair all 'wavy' like that (I crimped it...). Afterwards he thanked me for dancing with him and rushed to his friends.
He had like four friends the came to the same spot at the same time apparently to hear how that last dance went....They were all huddled there and I saw him mouth the words in total shock "She's 17!" Everyone in the group turned and stared at me while I walked across the gym. Literally, it was obvious they were gaking and talking about me. Oy vay...
Then while I was walking the other way across the gym, he had found like two more friends and basically pointed me out to them and said things like, "You know that girl I danced with...that one..*point* yeah, she's 17!" And this time it was even more obvious they were talking about me b/c he was pointing and the boys were moving their eyes/heads around trying to find me. Oy vay....Their eyes go wide...honestly...grow up...
So I basically was saying goodbye to the kid..I think his name is Jed? And he once again thanked me for dancing with him but the creepy thing was...he definately had the X-Ray eyes (seeing like right through me or my clothes) and said, "You look very pretty" while his eyes were going up and down my body! You could tell they definately like paused at my face and down to my butt and back up! It was kinda sick! The kids 14! Was Joseph Smith ever like that? I shure hope not. He's 14, there's no way anything is going to happen there hun. It was funny, flattering, disgusting and amusing at the same time.
But most of all the BEST part of the day by FAR...was sneaking over to Dereks house at like 8:15 this morning...sneaking into his basement thru his door....opening his creakin' door, taking off my shoes and slowly crawling onto the other side of the bed next to him. He's a long skinny string bean so I juss laid next to him and he opened his eyes and saw me. I was getting to the kiss to wake up I promise..but it was kinda hard...besides he woke up early anyway...I juss sat there and smiled at him. He said hi. Then he woke up a lil' more and we talked a wee bit about my surprise visits and I told him when I had to leave, he wouldnt really let me look at the clock after that..... anyways...I randomly kissed him on the cheek and juss smiled. Hopefully that would tide him over for the next 24 hours he goes w/o seeing me.
teehee...Then I snuck out and zoomed home to get there before Natalie came to pick me up.
Weeee....that was fun I think I'll do it again morrow morning....but that means I hafta wake up even earlier...*shrugs* I dont hafta actually be pretty until Thursday and Friday...teehee....
