Yesterday was Southview's homecoming dance. It was really good. I had a lot of fun. I kind of wish that I had at least gone more than once while in high school, but none the less I enjoyed the dance.
It was a "Red Carpet Night" and they did an awesome job in making you feel like you really were a celebrity of worth. The entrance to the dance consisted of a red carpet, spot lights, "V.I.P. Entrance", and they even announced your name as you walked into the dance. The commons barely even looked like the commons. The light, decorations, and people seemed to make it more than just a school cafeteria. About 580 were in attendance and everyone was having fun.
I'd have to say that I was deeply saddened to see so many immodest dresses there. Some dresses had potential, but others had no hope of ever being modest. Halters, neck lines cut way down there, very short in length, spaghetti straps. So not worth looking "slutty", "sexy", and so not worth giving out the wrong message. If only they knew what they were doing and saying when they dress so immodestly. I just don't get it.
Ignoring all of that, it was still a good dance. I got to hang out with friends and have fun. I didn't need a date, or to dance every dance, to have fun. If fact it took a lot of courage for me to walk in that dance by myself. It was totally worth it! Gosh, I'm gonna miss high school, but there's always other opportunities to have fun. A big shout out to the Class of 2009! Let's make it the best year yet! Hooah!

Good for you girl! You are an example of modest dressing and always have been. Maybe someone took note and will dress better next time? You never know the effect we have on others.
