Gimme Samoa Swing Music

For the welcome back dance, my friends and I dressed up as girl scouts. Our teal vests were decked-out with patches and we wrote "Troop 2012" on them with puff paint. After having a picture-taking pre-party out on the Whitney Oaks golf course, we played "big booty", snacked on cookies, and warmed up our dance skills. My troop then packed into three mom-driven SUVs and drove to the dance. Making a grand entrance, the sixteen of us filed one by one out of the three cars. We went into the gym and squeezed our way to the middle of the dance floor, where we got our groove on and had a blast for the remainder of the night. My favorite part was when Mr. Thompson said, "everybody, grab a friend's hand," and out of nowhere a swing song came on! Me and my friend Dani discovered that we had some awesome swing skills, and people even started making room around us. By the time the song ended, we were definitely ready for another swing song. Too bad they followed it up with the "Cha Cha Slide".
