   Cabaret
I went to Cabaret last night. It’s the last dance of the block. My boyfriend asked me Monday by making a power point. ^^ He showed a picture of the globe, then another that had North America on it. Then it was just North America. Then there was an Aerial view of the city we're in showing mostly the college. Then a picture of the main building on campus. Then there was a picture of the west ballroom where he put in a picture of me he had taken a while ago with a question mark above my head. Then there was this silly, cute picture of him with words around it saying something like: I came all this way to ask you to Cabaret. I was surprised by it I have to admit. When he said he wanted to show me a power point, I thought it was some sort of school project he was working on. It made me really happy though! ^^

We had a lot of fun at the dance! There were three parts to it: Dinner, live entertainment, and the dance. You could purchase a ticket to all three, just the last two, or just the dance. We went to all three. The dinner sitting was kind of like at a cruise where a bunch of couples sit at one table. We were the first at our table and were sitting across from each other at first, but then the last couple to our table came late and wanted to be next to each other so we moved things around so that he and I were together and they were together too.
After dinner was the live entertainment. Basically a bunch of different people would go onto the stage and sing for us. It was all preset and really good. They’re all great singers.
Then we helped put the chairs away because the dance was going to be in the same room. Once the chairs were gone, we went to get our picture done before the line got long from those just going to the dance. There were two ways to do it: by a Christmas tree or by a piano. I picked the piano because he can play it so well and I like the idea of it better. I sat on the bench while he put his hands on my shoulders and I held them. I’ll post a copy when I get it. ^^
We had a lot of fun at the dance. There were carriage rides outside so we went and did that. We actually didn’t dance a whole lot. Towards the end my feet were sore so we sat out in the area next to the ballroom and talked about all kinds of things. He’s trying to figure out what to get different people for Christmas. He says he has an idea for me and that he won’t be able to find it here, but he won’t tell me what it is. ^^ The dance ended before we knew it and we were both a little upset because he wanted to dip me during the last song, but we didn’t know it was the last song so after the prayer he dipped me. ^^ He did it because he overheard me talking to anther friend and telling her how I had never been dipped, but always wanted to be, so he dipped me! ^^
After the dance we came back to my lounge with another friend and her date and we took pictures with his camera. When I get a copy of those, I’ll post them to you too. ^^

I had a LOT of fun! I feel really sad that he’s leaving on his mission and everything and we only got to be together for a little over a month, but I know that it’s the right thing. I care for him a lot and only want him to have the best and to get that, he needs to go on his mission and serve the Lord like he’s been chosen to do.

Talk to you all later! ^^
