My sister though, she and her friends would make a whole day of it, right up until they graduated. they would like, go out in the afternoon, come home and all get ready together, and go to the dance, and talk about it like, all week. It was good for them. <br />Also, I can say now that I used to make fun of anyone who liked Luke Leishman. Even though he's alot younger than me haha. If I had hung out with either of you, you both would've been made fun of =)Vhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13771456475268000158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6437126884327729256.post-3336764686990658042013-09-06T12:28:15.701-07:002013-09-06T12:28:15.701-07:00Also, I failed to address the fact that YOU were t...Also, I failed to address the fact that YOU were the prettiest girl in the stake. I was the weirdo, haha.<br /><br />And, yes, we did quite well in the husband department. And that's the one that really matters, thank goodness.Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17145867151018295039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6437126884327729256.post-27658336556018238112013-09-06T11:49:26.875-07:002013-09-06T11:49:26.875-07:00Really??

But yeah, I didn't have the best track record either. (Not including Luke, he was probably second best guy I dated actually)Victoriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01147835172131545010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6437126884327729256.post-51398421057045945572013-09-06T11:07:17.119-07:002013-09-06T11:07:17.119-07:00Hahaha!

I didn't LIKE like Luke at all, I was just grabbing whoever was close to me so I wouldn't be standing on the sidelines for the last dance. So I asked Luke and he was all, "Uhhhh . . . ummmm . . . Sure?". It was obvious he was going to ask someone else to dance and I felt SO STUPID. I tried to assure him he didn't have to dance with me, but he felt bad, so he insisted. Then you cut in, and I was really relieved, because obviously he wanted to be with you and he wouldn't have to be stuck with me anymore. No hard feelings whatsoever, I felt terrible the whole time. You are too sweet!<br /><br /> And speaking of the New Years kisses, I briefly dated a guy who SNUCK OFF TO KISS SOMEONE ELSE at New Years. Turned out later he was dating four other girls at the same time as me, not even counting that chick. Dodged that bullet!Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17145867151018295039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6437126884327729256.post-41955261053383130862013-09-06T10:28:27.430-07:002013-09-06T10:28:27.430-07:00 haha this is so funny and so true.

Plus I remember them always playing a lot of slow songs because that's the only time a guy would ask you to dance ever.Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12213623119496267110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6437126884327729256.post-35574104090484681062013-09-06T09:32:22.653-07:002013-09-06T09:32:22.653-07:00Oh Mormon dances, good times.

I chaperoned one of those actually, it was gross, (they just seem so little!) but I didn't do anything. It was just awkward. So Rob and I just made fun of them to ourselves the whole night instead. <br /><br />It's funny you posted this, because the one really clear memory I have of you is when I was like 16ish and I liked Luke Leishman. You were dancing the last dance with him and, being the dramatic person I was at the time, I had one of those Back to the Future moments in which if I didn't cut in, my life would be altered forever. Soooo I cut in. I had never done something so bold in my life, and immediately felt really stupid about it. "I can't believe I just stole a dance from JULIA BEESLEY. She's like the prettiest girl in the stake. She must hate me."<br /><br />Turns out I didn't marry him after all. Sorry for stealing your dance. I'm sure you're still devastated.

I was outta there. Boys of course could keep going when they were older because the young girls pretty much worshiped them. Good memories. <br />Kimberlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06520199684836826209noreply@blogger.com
