Oh yeah, I forgot...
Apr. 25th, 2007 03:46 pmThe fact that I still owe you lot an explanation as to why I totally wasn't around last weekend, namely, a prom-report!
So yeah. Prom was hella fun. I went with Nathen, which was extremely shrewd on my part as A) he is recockulously awesome and B) he knows how to swing dance, and even knows the same form of swing that I do. Which ROCKS!
Martins West was its usual loverly stuff, and full of delicacies like chocolate fondue fountains and smoothies and whatnot. And awesome chandeliers. Unfortunately, the DJ sucked large dead donkey balls, what with some sort of mental inability to finish a song, a clear lack of being able to tell the tempo of a song, and therefore having every song played having the exact same beat, and, of course, the complete and utter inability to play anything other then rap, even when requested several times.
Last year, they at least managed to play a half dozen or so rock and a few more techno songs. This time, he managed to play some techno...with a rap backbeat, and maybe six seconds of "Sweet Dreams are Made of This".
But, at least rap music is danceable, what with the whole "Having a strong beat" thing. And becaue Nathen rocks at dancing, I got to dance a bunch, and look fucking FABULOUS while doing so. I managed to dance with a whole bunch of people ("Okay, do you know how to keep beat? Just fake it in time to the beat. That's how you dance.")
So yeah. It was fun. Afterwards, a bunch of people crashed at my house and we watched movies all evening. I wound up staying awake for about 38 and a half hours straight, minus about an hour and a half spent dozing in the middle of "The Breakfast Club" (But I woke up in time for the dancing, so it was all good) and some time spent napping with Ksatyr before running off to the annual Stoneridge Book Sale.
( Pictures behind the cut! )
That is all.
