I was expected to keep the food filled, which included macaroni and cheese, green beans, BBQ sauce, rolls, and the drinks. The requirements were not terrible, but when my my friend Sarah, the one who got me into this mess, kept beginning me to join her on the dance floor made me want to drop every important thing and go bust a move. I had to remind myself continuously that the work had to be done before I could enjoy myself. The reception was finally over and I had not made it to the dance floor once.
