Title: B&W Ball Forum Frenzy~
Post by: ichigocorcor on April 28, 2010, 09:02:10 AM
so, i'm not incredibly shy when it comes to asking people for dances- but i think it would be really fun to have some forum members meet up at the dance and partner up! i suggest meeting outside the dance itself because it gets really loud in there, but i just think it would be a cool idea :]

plus i loved the B&W ball last year- i think it was such a great and innovative idea. go fanime :D

I love this idea. I actually am shy when it comes to asking people to dance. So know some people works really nicely.

I have the confidence (and dancing skills) of a possum (i.e. when push comes to shove, I may as well be dead. :P ) when it comes to these things, so I too can appreciate the value of such an idea. (This will also be my first B&W ball)

Yay!! :] so i just say we should all meet up about a half hour before the dance to introduce ourselves and make partners :]
or maybe we should play roulette and make partners on here.

guys dance? are you sure? :P

if im not to busy 'working' id think I'd like to learn a dance step or two... given my two left feet. >_<

if a girl doesnt mind a bumbling idiot when it comes to dancing, but good company that evening--- you know what to do.

Just say hi and we'll go from there... just wear steel toe heels.  LOL

Sounds like fun! Anyone going to attend any of the dance lessons before the ball?
Hopefully I'll be able to drag someone with me so I can go to these things... :P

I need to attend those lessons before the dance XD I probably will end up killing my poor dance partner's feet.

The only dance I would like to learn is the waltz. I'm not really into the other types of dance. I'll be going to the one on Friday.

I think I could use all the practice I could get. Although, I feel like i could do it without it and I don't even know what to expect from the B&W ball other than the color scheme. :P

Damn I still need a dancing partner! haha.
Well yeah I'm completely jealous when people go to the B&W ball wearing their cosplay in a B&W outfit.
Sadly I'll be attending as myself :/

I've never taken the dance lesson. I might take hem hough but beig a first timer I'm really shy so if anyone needs a partner let me know. But remember I'm not the type to dance with someone who's ten years older than me xD

If you go to the dance lessons, you switch partners so that you can feel more comfortable dancing with different people (who have different dancing styles). Maybe you will make a friend with some of your partners at the dance lessons and will be able to dance with them at the Ball.

The lessons are really fun! I attended a few and the same guys I danced with during the lessons asked me to dance at the ball. They actually remembered me! I was surprised (cos I have horrible memory... I didn't remember pretty much any of those guys... >.>;;;).

But I was really surprised that they asked me to dance cos I felt I stepped on their toes a lot, too. But the lessons are fun, and the ball is awesome. :3

I took dancing in 8th grade and I STILL suck at it, which is a testament to my ridiculously horrible balance and lack of dancing skills.

Last year I went to my first B&W Ball and danced with a very charming Death the Kid.
I think I must have stepped on his toes at least 2 times. :P
If you're reading this, Death the Kid cosplayer, I apologize.

So, if any of you can tolerate my bumbling idiocy on the dance floor, by all means.
