Double Date
Thursday was a great day. I had a good time in art, though realistic drawing is starting to get on my nerves. Things really kicked off at five o'clock. I joined the international club in LAC for international dancing. A woman from Fermi Lab came out to teach us. We had a good turnout, though predictably a lot more girls than guys. We wound up dancing for nearly two hours. My favorite was the Serbian (I think it was Serbian anyway) one we did right away. Since then I've forced about ten different people to do that one with me. There was a really cool Hungarian wedding dance too. Most of the dances were in circles, though some were in lines or individual. The Japanese one came as a pleasant surprise, as it had one of the same motions in it that I'd learned in a Nagaoka folk dance two years ago. At 6:45, I walked to the station and picked up MIke.
Mike, Johnny, Bobby, and I had planned a double date. We'd been talking about having one for a while, so everyone was pretty excited about it. We'd planned on eating at Bennigans between seven and eight, then seeing Pan's Labyrinth at 8:05. For some reason, though Bobby's mom wound up working late, so we had less time than we'd planned. Mike and I spent the extra time waiting for Bobby to arrive going to Walgreens, going to Burger King, and getting food at The Cage. Bobby picked us up from The Cage. We then drove to the AMC. We had some trouble getting in, as I thought we could make a left at one point where we couldn't. So we wound up illegally u-turning in an intersection, but whatever. We made it for the movie in time. I hadn't cuddled during a movie since Joel last spring, so it was nice. It seems funny to think how nervous I was about it the first time, but now with Bobby it feels so natural. I liked Pan's Labyrinth. Like Emily said, there was a lot more in it about the civil war in Spain and less about fantasy or the labyrinth, but I didn't mind. It was an enthralling story. I definitely recommend it. It was a very unique movie.
We drove back to my dorm afterward. It was ten something by then, so we had about an hour to hang out. We chatted in my dorm and hung out. We wound up making out a little with our bf's and with each other a little too. Johnny proposed the idea of us mixing partners to figure out who was the best at it, but Bobby wouldn't participate. So, I had to be the judge, and decided that Bobby was the best (really, what else was I going to say). Eventually we drove Mike to the station and said goodbye. Bobby then drove back to my dorm, where we said goodbye at the door. And I guess, according to Johnny some people were looking down at us "saying goodbye" from the windows above. Gah. Bobby and Johnny left, and I went jogging with Jill.
All in all it was a great day. We didn't have as much time as we'd wanted for the date, but everyone had a great time.
