Gehtto Dances
For four years I have been at this school and within those four years, I have yet to attend a dance that I could call anything but "ghetto." In fact, people from other schools are kind of petrified to attend Tilghman dances because they are so "ghetto." Teenagers dream of the perfect dances, but at Tilghman the dances are far from perfect. So why is it that the dances aren't always the dances of our dreams? One simple answer, we don't have the money to afford what is seen on those teen movies. You know, the ones with the big staircases and the ice sculptures. Homecoming is another dance that has never met up to my standards. I have never understood why this night is not made a bigger deal. We crown a king and queen, but after that, it's over.
