Besides… “To who is she talking” or “What is she doing that for” or “Me and him went to the dance?” does not bother me at. All. I might as well say then - since it doesn”t bother I; - “Good, my day was well,” or “That effected me so great” because I don”t care and by the way like I said it doesn”t matter. However; won day me did speak with a English teacher and, good, him said that grammar “is the key to unlock any language.” Him said, “It is important to study so that our language is standardized and proper.” Him also said, “It sounds good to the ear, too,” Witch obviously isn”t true because if won speaks grammar good then you again just sound meen.

What It Means To Dance – Erin Sullenberger

At any given celebratory event that promotes dancing, such as high school proms, sweet sixteens or banquets, there are always three distinct groups of people: those who sit and admire the scenery, those who awkwardly stand beside others who are dancing, and those who leave everything out on the dance floor. Ever since I was old enough to really enjoy myself at such events, I was always a part of the former third of party-goers. Last year, however, I ventured into the latter half of dancers, not caring what anyone thought of my horrendous dance moves that I will soon describe.

I was sitting around a table at my good friend's birthday party while the DJ was hopelessly attempting to garner some excitement on the dance floor. I cannot even recall exactly what feeling came over me, but I up, requested the DJ to play Billy Idol's Dancing with Myself, and I spent the next four minutes or so prancing about in such a horrible manner that it was almost embarrassing, except for the fact that I did not care. I distinctly recall doing this move where I would hop from foot to foot with synchronized arm movement. I danced alone on the dance floor in front of about one hundred people for the remainder of the evening because there was such a grand feeling of pleasure that overwhelmed me that I did not want to stop. I persuaded my friend to join me in a performance of Dancing Queen, and by the end of the song, he was smiling, wishing that the DJ would replay this Abba classic. Eventually, there were spots of all three of my aforementioned types of party-goers covering the hall, and to no surprise, I was in the center of all the excitement. By the end of the night, I was filled with such a large surge of adrenaline and happiness that I could not wait for homecoming, half a year later, to dance again. There is such an amazing aspect of dancing, I think, that goes completely unnoticed. First and foremost, dancing brings about such a great sense of confidence. Now, at every event I attend, I am the first and last person on the dance floor. Also, I think that dancing is a way to express who you really are. By no means am I a decent dancer, but by putting myself out there, moving the way I do, I show that appearance doesn't much matter: being who you are without caring what other people think does. And even more so, I think that dancing by myself really allows me to express who I am. When you're engaged with a partner or one among a crowd of dancers, then your individuality doesn't shine. I love being able to convey how fun and exciting dancing is for me when I'm in my own circle, leaving everything I have on the floor. Furthermore, when I start to dance by myself, then my friends like to join me, and then my fun only increases.

And lastly, dancing is a way to help me relax and return to my raw, normal self. While studying for midterms and finals, I take a break every hour to dance in my room. Before I took my online 2020 AP

exams, I danced. In either occasion, it didn't matter what song came on. All that mattered was that I was being myself, building my confidence, and enjoying something that was, ironically, supposed to be stressful.

Although this year's prom was cancelled, I'm looking forward to being able to dance next year. Hopefully the DJ will take my request and play Dancing with Myself!
