Replying to My Prom Story
So my senior prom was over the weekend, and I had a blast. Dinner was good (prime rib with mashed potatoes and green beans) and beautiful weather allowed us to hang out on the balcony over looking a golf course at sunset.
We finally got to dance at around 8 PM. They played the usual dance songs ("Say Yeah" by Wiz Khalifa, anyone?) and the Titanic song. After about an hour, the DJ announced that they were taking requests. I knew that I wanted to make my prom special, and memorable, so I went up and requested a song.
After about 15 minutes, the sweet sound of a keyboard and electronic drums came over the speakers - Rick Astley, NS icon.
I started to dance, my strength was rejuvenated. I lost myself in Rick's amazingly low voice, and before I knew it half of my class was off of the dance floor. I didn't understand it - how could you not enjoy the timeless classic that was playing?
I shrugged it off and continued to dance, while more and more people left the dance floor. I guess they just didn't appreciate the song as much as me. Thanks NS!
And the new NS trend, for you lazies: Sparknotes - I Rick Roll'd my prom, causing half of my classmates to leave the dancefloor.
