Homecoming Dance | Town Hall | Saturday Evening | Post I

Glitter encrusted moosen stood guard in the entry to the transformed Town Hall, reminding all those in attendance that the night was about all things Canadian. Or things the Student Council had deemed Canadian - plus a whole lot of glitter.

Sparkly red maple leaves and paper geese hung from irridescent streamers, setting off the food tables as very much separate from the raised dance floor in case the terrifying papier-mâché beaver didn't make it obvious that the timbits were for eating. Or for dunking in the maple syrup fountain. Beyond pure sugar, there were plenty of bite-size portioned food and nonalcoholic beverages to push the theme into the bellies of all, no matter how tight the dresses!

Beyond the dance floor, the shadowy corners glowed with the twinkle of glittery maple leaf garland and a Joni Mitchell inspired moose that had been strategically positioned to look rather tragic in its lyric-covered glory. Yes, glory. For the evening was to be glorious. Or at the very least entertaining.

Welcome to your 2011 Homecoming Dance!

"The underlying scent of maple is a little strong," Isabel laughed, tipping her bottle of water in salute at the other girl. "But it's not a bad thing. I'm Isabel by the way. I graduated a three years ago but I still keep coming back for some insane reason."

"Now that would be telling wouldn't it?" Just because she couldn't be on island anymore to brain break newbies didn't mean Isabel had to miss out on all the fun. "But let's just say that keeping a spare set of guys clothes around wouldn't be the worst idea ever."

"I'm an alien from Roswell. At this point my family is used to weird. But yeah, it does have the potential to make things awkward with any college roommates." Which was why Isabel was out of the dorms as soon as she was able to pull it off.

"So far my boyfriend and I have swapped genders. We've regressed to being six years old. And there was one lovely morning my boyfriend turned into a vampire with the not so terrifying name of Fork but with an absolutely horrifying dye job."

"If it's at all possible, singles are definitely the way to go," Isabel agreed. "It least out there in the real world. Here? Embrace the wackiness. It's fun."

Well at least if you don't turn into your shanky ho of a dupe for the weekend. Fortunately, after four long years, Isabel had pretty much repressed that weekend. And the Soap Opera weekend where she'd slept with her boyfriend's brother. And the weekend where she's been knocked up by a unkempt slacker...Okay, there was a lot of repression involved.
