Strike a Pose

Tyra has got to watch out, because aside from making science/math educated girls, my school is also producing wannabe models.
For Real.
On Saturday night there was an 'event' at my school. I had thought that it was a dance to welcome Senior 1 and Senior 4 girls to the school since they had arrived the previous week.Well I was wrong.
I showed up at 8, since thats when they told me to. Mistake. Nothing happened till 9.30. For the entire time all the girls(around 700) were seated on benches on either side of the dining hall facing in, and there was about a 15 yard gap between the two sides. Being a teacher I got a front row seat.. there were a few other teachers who stopped by.
So it was time to start. A group of senior 6 girls were in charge of the music. The first song they played was a remix version of Toto's Africa(not kidding). I thought I was in heaven. And then it started. A handful of girls from S1 and S4 had been picked to be models. They were wearing traditional outfits. They had to walk up and down between the rows of girls(who were now all standing).
Essentially CRAZYNESS.
The walks were so fierce. This was taken very seriously.very seriously. Now let me tell you, if the crowd did not like the outift or the walk, they let the girl know. At times it was brutal.
Inbetween the outfit changes the 2 MCs of the event would call people out of the crowd and make them dance by themselves in front of everyone. More crazyness. I eventually got called up, and of course I went(we all know I love a good dance party).
The place went wild. The more I got into the music, the more they screamed and laughed. There were times I could not even hear the music. And of course I must mention the song I had to dance to: single ladies(put a ring on it) by Beyonce.. HAHAHA... to funny,let me tell you. I even had two students come up and dance with me... which made the place go more wild. I wasn't even sure which part they 'liked' more, the fact that a teacher was dancing, or that the white teacher was dancing....either way it was a good time.
I left before they announced the model winner..but they raged on till midnight..haha.. me being the 'old' person that I am had trouble staying up till 11.
