Military Ball -- 2014

So, April 12, or, Saturday was the day of the Military Ball, which I thought was a great experience [that I would like to do once again] and overall was enjoyable. The only problem was simply that I do wish that the night would have felt longer, as those four-and-a-half hours flew by quite quickly!

As I had put in this post, I had asked [technically someone helped me ask him--I was too anxious] Mr. Aquarius if he would like to go with me, and he had replied with a yes, and I completely lost it and "tackle-hugged" my friend whom did the asking for me. Then she brought him to me. And then I lost whatever vocal and social abilities I had simply dissapated.

Anyway, back to the topic. I ended up being about ten minutes late [surprisingly enough], though Mr. Aquarius greeted me [and my sister; she was our chaparone] kindly. We arrived around 5:40 p.m., thus leading to an approximately twenty-minute wait before the recieving line was to begin. After the Reciving line, we stood at a table with some friends [mostly from Rifle Team, most of which I know/am well-aquainted with], and continued to wait until everyone attending was situated.

Speaking Of Mr. Aquarius...

And now that I have finally remembered what I was going to post about, here it is..

So you know this Aquarius guy I keep bringing up? Well, I forgot to mention something. Sometime around the end of February, I had mustered up enough courage to ask him to the Military Ball [we are both in JROTC and he is, in fact, my squad leader who is two years my senior]. You should have seen me when he said yes.
I didn't believe it at first, though when I realized it was "for real", I literally wanted to jump up and hug him. So, now it is 23 March, and the Military Ball is coming up on the 12th of April. I'm pretty excited, actually.

Going off topic for a bit, I really need to finish cleaning my room. It's already clean, according to my parents, but it just doesn't seem clean enough...

I really can't wait for the ball...I already have a dress, shoes, and [since he can't drive yet...over here, you have to get driving classes then wait a year until you are able to drive without an instructor/supervisor] we will meet there. I'm sort of hoping that I could get enough courage [not to mention my parents' approval] to meet for lunch with him [I know that he would say yes, but I just am not quite ready mentally...aka still paranoid].
But really. I think that this should have been mentioned a while ago...who said that Aquarians and Virgoans aren't compatible? Not me!
