Snowball

Snowball is one of the annual elan cotillion dances.  There are two cotillions in Baton Rouge which are Elan and Baton Rouge.  You can only belong to one.  I belong to Baton Rouge, and most of my other friends belong to Elan.  I assume that most of you know what it is, so I'm not going to really bore you by going into detail on what it is.  My friends and I were so excited to go to this dance, had everything planned out.  Everyone had a ticket, we were going to wear tennis shoes with our dresses, and make sure to get there on time before they locked the doors.  

As we arrived at the party they asked us if we had our I.D's, and we all did.  We had our bags, phones, and everything we needed.  When we stepped out of the car this lady starts yelling at us, and telling us we couldnt wear tennis shoes.  None of us had any other shoes with us, and it wasn't possible for Sara Alice's dad to bring all of us 7 girls to each of our houses to get heels.  It was also 8:10 and we only had 20 minutes left till they locked the doors.  We jumped back into the car, and our only option was going back to Sara Alice's house to borrow her cousins shoes. Luckily Sara Alice's house wasn't too far away. When we got to the house, we all litterally flew out of the car and ran into the house.  Sara Alice just started throwing shoes at us, so we took them and got back in the car.  As we were putting them on in the car we realized that they were huge on us…oh well.  We got to the party at 8:28 (which I believe should go in the world record book).  The party was kind of a let down anyway, so it wouldn't have been that big of a deal if we would have no gotten there on time.  It was a very memorable experience, and looking back at it all we do is laugh.  It was probably the highlight of the night (between that and Trinity tripping and falling on her face).  Next time, we will read the rule book.  (maybe)
