One Night Extravaganza

Just this past Saturday was Function at the usual place. Although it was just a night that lasted about five hours of waiting for photos, dinner, and dancing, function started a month ago for me. First finding a date to go with before everyone was taken, because I did not want to resort to outsourcing to friends out of school if necessary. That was something that required me to be at the right place at the right time. Where I just happened to be at on the night before carnival at the variety show junior and senior carnival dance at school. Second was finding the clothes. Going to Ala Moana multiple times trying to decide upon what looked good and what looked good that matched me with my date. Thirdly dealing with all the unnecessary drama that people create and the annoying question of, “Wesley, who are you going to Function with?” I reply, “I don’t know.” or “ You don’t have to know.” or “Wait till Function.” Either those or something similar, because too many people asked and I had too many ways for saying those three responses. Fourth were helping some of my unprepared and no initiative friends in finding a date because they waited till the week of ticket selling to find a date. Fifth was acquainting the guys with the girls so that function wouldn’t be so awkward as a first time acquaintance. Sixthly were waiting for a week and thinking and planning about what a wonderful time I was going to have. Seventh was waking up to function and getting ready to meet my date. Eighth was getting to school and making all the preparations before boarding the bus. Ninth is the long bus ride that nearly took an hour from getting to school to the hotel due to getting on the fourth bus. Lastly was Function with all it’s fun memories that I hope to relive again next year.
