Homecoming?

So is anyone else super excited for Homecoming?

I just realized that it is less than a month away. It's weird to think that this will be the last one I go to. I can't wait, but at the same time I don't want it to come. The quicker it comes, the quicker it goes.

Sorry, guys, but I will not be dancing at Homecoming. Who goes to a dance to dance? I'm way too cool for that, right? Actually, to be quite honest, dancing makes me feel like a fool. I mean, I look in on the crowd of people "dancing" and cringe. I wish dancing was like it used to be in the old days. Good clean fun. Standing outside of the group all I see is a lot of inappropriate grinding and.. bouncing I guess. This seems to be what our generation views as dancing. Why couldn't I have been born in the '20s? Dances then would have been fun. I could do that. I'm no good at the so-called dancing of today. This is not because I am not capable of dancing. I have really good rhythm and coordination. Unfortunately, today's dancing doesn't really require these. I think to dance at one of our dances you kind of have to have no shame; to not care at all that what you're doing in public would make your grandmother faint.

Sometimes I don't think I was meant to be born in this generation. I really want to enjoy dances and have fun. For me the time before the dance is the most fun. I love dress and shoe shopping. I love getting my hair done and doing my face up. Dressing up is the bomb. I swear I came out of the womb in a dress and high heels.

Welp, just to make this relevant.....

sorry.
