A theme is a good idea. Last year it was "hijacked" into the 80's Dance Zone sometime Thursday afternoon, and I'd like to do that in 2011 with slightly more planning. Probably not 80s again, but it'll be something fun.

A steam punk ball? What if the fa dies by then? A man can hope.

I nominate a reunion theme. 10 years and all that.

If you want a steam punk ball, attend the gala in November.

The dance lessons panel things weren't very good, to be honest... I mean, I only went to the 09 one, but it felt like at first, it would be ok, but then it turned into like:

Some Guy "Hey, I can do this!" *shows off*
Dance Instructor "Cool! Let's all do it!"
Me "Wait, what!? D:"

Plus it seemed like it was too short, not enough people showed up for it, and I didn't really learn anything at all... -_-;; The lack of decent music didn't help, either (no offense).

I wanted to go to the PortProm this year, but I was staying with friends who live an hour away from Portland and I didn't want to make them drive that late. Now I'm sad I missed the 80s Dance Zone thing... I love 80s music more than... almost everything! T_T
