Yeah... somehow, the dance yesterday actually turned out really, really well, despite how much I had been worrying about it during the past week or so. The dance cards seemed like they'd be really weird at first, but once I actually got there and figured out how they worked it wasn't that bad (and it turns out that they didn't make everyone get theirs signed in the first few minutes or so--you got to keep them, and you could still get people to sign them all the way up until the dance with that number actually happened.) Mine actually ended up being completely full by the end (all ten slots), amazingly enough... half of those were girls who came up and asked me to dance, and the other half was me actually asking girls, both of which rarely ever happen. I even danced with a couple more girls when they were playing random songs in between the numbered dances, and though I did struggle a bit with the whole "actually dancing" thing at times I did manage to pull it off fairly well for the most part (and got to spin girls around, which is always fun. XD) But yeah... somehow, this dance turned out really well even though I didn't end up having a date for it and I was really unsure about it at first. I think I might actually try to continue learning how to dance so I don't just completely forget what I've managed to get so far; I know they have swing-dancing classes every week here, and at the ballroom classes earlier this week someone mentioned that they might try to set it up so that those can keep going throughout the semester too. That might even help out a bit with my "nothing to do after supper on most days" boredom problems.
And afterward, I was pretty worn out and sweaty... and kind of hungry, since I hadn't eaten much beforehand. So I went back up to my room and ordered a pizza (Domino's was doing this large-2-topping-pizza-for-$5.99 thing this week, so I got a lot of pizza... too much for me to eat in one meal, so I still have almost half of it left, heh.)
