Valentines Bash

So, although I was not all too excited to go to the Valentine's bash put on by the Catholic Campus Ministry this past Saturday, I must admit.... it was fun.
I have never been a big fan of Valentine's. Ok, that is a lie. I loved it, in elementary school. I just couldn't wait to make my Valentine's box, and address all of my little cards to my friends. I just ate up Valentine's day when it was about making cupcakes and dressing up in red, pink, and purple. But then I grew up, and it became more about who was going to be your significant other on the 14th. Eck. I have never been one for mushy, gushy, lovey, dovey things, so when that is what Valentine's day became, around the age of 12, I vowed I would never be a fan... again.
I am a junior, and each year CCM puts on a Valentine's dance, and shindig. Well, the past two years, I have MADE SURE that I was gone on those weekends, so I wouldn't get wrangled into going. This year was different, since I had to be in town for other responsibilities. I got wrangled. It was fun though! I loved the movie that we watched. FIREPROOF. Although the actors are not going to win any Academy awards anytime soon-- it was an AWESOME story. I began the applause afterwards... it was that good! Then we had dinner. DELICIOUS! Chicken Parmesan. Oh, so tender! I really enjoyed the company at the table too! Father Rocco had a fun time stacking our water glasses, he balanced up to four before he was scared that they were going to tip over! He has many amazing talents! haha.
Then the music began! We had an good friend from the past come and DJ for us. He has excellent music taste! It was also a treat to see him, and his Fiance-- they will be getting married in May... I think. Another Catholic couple getting married! YEAH!
The dancing was fun. I like to think I can cut a rug, as my Grandma likes to say! Hahaha. I was wiped out, and slept like a baby that night. I even slept through my alarm, and was late for making breakfast burritos at St. Peter's the next morning at 6 am. Sorry, Padre Pio Pilgrims! :)
Well, that is the short run down of the weekend. thanks for making it a pleasant Valentine's bash CCM team!
