Obsessions of a Teenage Drama Queen
Sep. 29, 2007
*sigh...*
| Last night there was another dance...it was TORTURE.
Okay, so, Sam called me up and said that there was going to be a dance, her mom was making her go and Andrea said she wouldn't go if i didn't. So, after a whole morning of playing phone-tag to see if homeschoolers were allowed to go to the dance, I finally got an answer...yes. BUT, one of my parents had to escort me in. Which meant I couldn't ride with Sam, like I planned. So I made plans with Sam's mom to pick up her and Andrea. Funny thing is, she never told Sam the plans. But the ride thing all worked out in the end.
1 hour before the dance, I find out you need a permission slip. Luckily I was able to print one off the website. HOWEVER...Sam lost hers and Andrea forgot to get her mom to sign hers. And when she realized that, her was was 2 hours away picking her sister up at the airport. Luckily, I didn't have to go to the dance alone. Since Sam's dad was driving her, he was able to fill out a permission slip at the door, and we just handed Andrea's in without a signature. I didn't think it would work! the woman took the slip, stared at it for like, 10 minutes, set it down and said "allright, you can go in."
YES!
So, once in, first thing I saw was Jax.
You remember Jax?
Of course you remember Jax.
At the beginning of the summer I spent THREE HOURS chasing him all around the town in BLACK JEANS and BLACK BOOTS in NINETY DEGREE WEATHER because Sam would DIE if she didn't get his number.
So, Jax is standing there, slowely revolving around the dance floor with a blue-eyed blonde in his arms. I look at Sam. She shruggs. I guess she got over him...
Then Cydney comes up. Have I introduced Cydney? nope, I guess not. Well, she's okay. She's gossips alot, though. So, she pointed to blondie leaning against Jax and says "That's Nicole...I hate her!" then skips off to join Cristina (oh yeah, last weekend Sam was ditching me for Cristina and we weren't talking for like, 3 days cause of it).
Then Amanda walks up to us. Have I told you about Amanda and Cody? no? okay, well, to make a long story short...Met Cody. Got Cody's e-mail. E-mailed Cody every night. Told Amanda I like Cody. Amanda told entire school. Cody stops talking to me. Mom finds out. Mom grounds me from e-mail. Mandy embarasses her a.ss off infront of every STINKIN' MIDDLE SCHOOLER IN VISTA LINDA!!!
So, anyways, Amanda walks up to our group, and starts asking annoying questions. (Whhyyy did yyyooouuu come to the daaancccee...? Are hooomeschoooolerrrs alloooweddd to cooommme...? I don't know why she drags out her letters like that, but she does.)
Finally, I got rid of Amanda.
about an hour later, things finally start to get better. Hannah shows up, and introduces me to some guys, I requested a song, everything was going good.
Then a slow song came on. Sammie comes running up to me yelling "GO! you're going to dance with Jacob!"
What?
Okay, honestly, Jacob is not that bad. Even though he has braces, and is growing a mustache, you can't help but like him when you see those adorable brown puppy eyes of his, and his black spiked hair. Plus, he's one of the nicest guys I know.
So Sam pushes me over to where Jacob was standing. "Dance!" she shouts, "okay I'll leave you guys alone, I'll be over there." She ran off.
Jacob was a rock. I had to literally, grab his wrists and put his hands on my waist and start dancing. He wouldn't say anything, and wouldn't even make eye contact with me. And it didn't help at all that Sammie, Andrea, Hannah, Crystal, Cydney, Cristina, and I dunno who else was standing over at the side, giggling and pointing.
The song ended, Jacob ran off as quick as he could and I was left standing all alone at the edge of the dance floor. Not for long. Sammie and Andrea came up, and bombarded me with the usual comments after dancing with a guy ("oh! you would make such a cute couple!" "aw, how long till the wedding?")
So, I get over Jacob leaving me, and start dancing with me friends. Then I turn around and guess who's dancing with Jacob? Nicole.
Oh well, there are plenty of other cute guys at the dance. Such as the one I danced with at the six-sevvie. No...he's gone. Never mind.
After awhile, Sam decided I had to dance with another guy. So she went and got Gary. Gary is a super-popular 7th grader, who unlike most super-popular 7th graders, has actually talked to me! like, talked. Like, knows my name. I knew him in 5th grade, when he was a dork. But now he's not a dork. and he remembers me from 5th grade. So, anyways, Sam walked up to ask Gary to dance with me. Oh no. He's talking to Nicole. I stop. Sam keeps going. "Sam!" I hiss, as she walkes towards him. Didn't work. So, Sam asks him to dance with me infront of Nicole! I turned around, I couldn't watch. I was going to die from humilation. Then I felt something. I opened my eyes. Gary was standing infront of me, his arms around my waist. "Hey, Mandie." He said smiling. O.M.G.
He has braces too.
What is it with me and guys who have braces?
So, I was surprised, but I put my arms around his neck anyways. I felt like I was about to pass out. I was shaking. He just kept smiling at me. The song ended, and he smiled (how cute!) and walked away. I walked back to my group. It didn't look good. Crystal and Andrea were enthusiastically trying to get Hannah to dance. Hannah looked like she was about to be sick.
"What's the matter?" I asked.
Hannah: *Death glare*
Sam took me aside. "What's up with Hannah?" I asked. "She likes Gary." Sam said (BTW, Gary, you better not be reading this!)
Now I was the one who felt like I was going to puke. All thoughts of the dance I had had with Gary left my mind. I looked to my left, at Hannah. She still looked sick. I couldn't stand watching her, so I turned my head to the right. Great. Guess who I see now. Gary. Well, at least he's not talking to Nicole. She's over with Jacob again...
"I'm so sorry." I stammered.
"I'll tell Hannah you said that." Sam muttered walking away.
I walked into the crowd of dancers, to my friend Sean. Sean is nice, and funny, and just overall a cool guy. I was going to go vent to him about Hannah and Gary, but he was dancing with his friend. and his friend is a hispanic, black haired, GUY. What's wrong with this picture? I turned around to go back. I came to the place where we had all been hanging out. But now it was just Hannah and Gary. Dancing. Hannah had this blissfull expression on. Gary didn't look too bad either. Hannah saw me, smiled and gave me the thumbs up. So things were good with Hannah.
So then, pretty much, the dance was over. We went to drop people off, and guess what. I lost my earring. The only one that will fit in my cartilidge piercing (did I spell that right?). That's allright. I can get another one.
So, that's all. I guess it turned out okay, but for the most part I was pretty miserable. |
