Dear Diary,

So back to my story. It was about that time that we, ("We" being my date Damian, my friend Jay, Jay's friend Katherine and myself), started towards the cafeteria where the dance its self was being held. When we first walked up, and I saw the few people that were in there in general, and the maybe 5 people in the middle trying to dance, I have to say, I was very disappointed. But I thought about it and decided that this dance was not going to be a complete waste of my $15 and that it had just started and that it would get better because no one really ever starts dancing when the dance first starts.

So Katherine had ditched Jay and disappeared to God-knows-where. So he just kind of stuck to my date and I. I was kind of relieved because Damian still likes me so it was kind of awkward, but Jays presence dimmed that awkward feeling by a-fucking-lot. Believe me I was very thankful I had run into him.

After a few more people went onto the dance floor I wanted to go dance also, so I told Jay and Damian, "Let's go dance. I'm tired of just standing here."

So they did as they were told and I led them to the dance floor. Only to run into Amanda, Angie and Steven. Some of my friends from debate. To me it was just more relief that there were so many of my friends around. Because I used that knowledge to comfort myself by telling myself that with a bunch of my friends around he, ("he being Damian"), couldn't try anything on me.

So Damian and I danced together to a couple of songs but I decided it was a bit awkward so we ditched each other. Well that's what I tell everyone. I tell everyone that we ditched each other but in reality I'm pretty sure its me who ditched him. But oh well, I saw him dancing with other girls so he sure bounced back pretty quickly.

Anyways back to Homecoming…it was about that time I ran off and was dancing with my dear friend Angie. Who evidently has the same name as me so she has everyone call her Angie. We were at the end of a song when I noticed that R.O.T.C. was in a nice line in a hallway leading to the cafeteria and so I told her and she was like "Hmm…I wonder what they're here for…"

We soon found out they were there to be…basically the wall for the nominees for the kings and queens of Homecoming. It was when Andrew walked down that isle that I pointed him out to Angie and told her about my huge crush on him. So after they announced the king and queen of Homecoming everyone went back to dancing. And Angie encouraged me to go ask him to dance. I, of course told her I was way to scared to and that I would freak out and probably make a fool of myself. We had a very long discussion…well actually it was more like she was giving me a pep-talk. Needless to say it didn't work…

Well I'm exhausted yet again so I'm going to bed and will write to you tomorrow.
