I figure I graduated with a pretty good GPA, I made amazing friends, I made lots of memories and most importantly, I went to dances. So those three years of my life were successful, in my opinion.
Lately, I've been taking numerous walks down memory lane. I always go back to my high school days. My favorite hs days were the dances. You know what? I miss dances. A lot. I miss the stress of wondering if you're going to get asked, I miss the stress of wondering what boy to ask...and of course I miss that added stress of trying to come up with a clever and original way to ask/answer your date... Ah, love it.
So, just because I want to, I am going to post my dance pictures.
::note:: My biggest high school regret is not taking pictures at every dance. For whatever reason, I thought it wouldn't be a big deal. Well, I was stupid. It is a big deal. Pictures are better than the dances most the time. So, yes, its true, I don't have pictures of every dance that I went to :(
Kids, learn from my mistakes. ALWAYS take the pictures even if the line is long...you'll thank me later.
& since I was in high school whilst attending these dances, how about with each picture I add one thing I learned. Just for kicks and giggles.

 |
| prom learned: my dates hand is in a funny place & we should have listened to the memo that we weren't smiling. |

Keep smiling!
And remember kids! TAKE DANCE PICTURES, ALWAYS!
