My Favorite Dances And The Songs I Like Them To

Personal Photo

It's about to be the anniversary of going on about 4 years line dancing with Mishnock Barn. Every time I go I'm reminded why I fell in love with going in the first place. The amount of dancing we do is crazy and some might think we're odd, but they enjoy watching and they try to dance along with us. For me, being a beginner didn't really last very long, mostly because I can't dance slow anymore (when they teach it).

The amount of dances I know continues to grow every time I go. With all the different events and places they go they are always bringing back at least one new dance for us to learn. Knowing which dance I actually know is hard, I usually wait until the song plays or until the dance actually starts. Dancing with my friends is my absolute favorite part, each and everyone of them have become family to me just like Mishnock has become my second home.

Although it was very hard for me to do, here are my favorite dances with the song(s) I like to dance them to…

1. "Footloose"

"Footloose" by Blake Shelton

2. "Mean"

Originally danced to "Mean" by Taylor Swift, but I love dancing it to "Shape of You" by Ed Sheeran.

3. "Central Standard Time"

Song's name, "11:59 (Central Standard Time)" by The Railers.

4. "Bring Down The House"

Song, "Bring Down the House" by Dean Brody

5. "Kerosene"

I enjoy dancing it to "Undress Rehearsal" by Timeflies as well as "Uptown Funk" by Bruno Mars.

6. "Wagon Wheel"

I love dancing it to "Backwood Bump" by Waterloo Revival. But it also goes to the song "Wagon Wheel" by Darius Rucker.

7. "Booze Cruise"

Song, "The Booze Cruise" by Blackjack Billy.

8. "We Are Tonight"

"Born to Love You" by LANCO. Or "We Are Tonight" by Billy Currington

9. "Moves Like Jagger"

"Going Out Like That" by Reba McEntire.

10. "Jozzie's Funk"

Song, "Bacco Perbacco" by Zucchero.

11. "One Foot"

Song, "One Foot" by Walk the Moon.

12. "Blood Sweat and Beer"

Song, "Blood Sweat and Beer" by Blackjack Billy.

13. "Ah Si"

"Can't Stop the Feeling" by Justin Timberlake and "Forget You" by Cee lo Green.

14. "Road Less Traveled"

"Road Less Traveled" by Lauren Alaina.

15. " Dancin' Around It"

I love it to the song, "Sugar.Honey.Ice.Tea" by Charlie WIlson.

16. "Country Walkin"

"Fake ID" by Big & Rich, Gretchen Wilson. As well as, "Came Here For Love" by Sigala, Ella Eyre.

17. "Dan's County Line"

"Meant to Be" by Florida Georgia LIne with Bebe Rexha.

18. "Vacation"

"Vacation" by Thomas Rhett, as well as, "Handclap" by Fix and the tantrums.

19. "Dem Jeans"

"Dem Jeans" by Chingy.

20. "U A Freak"

"U A Freak" by Chingy.

21. "Ghost Train"

22. "Mishnock Slide"

I love dancing it to, "Soldier" by High Valley and "Close to You" by Ryan Lafferty.

"Lonely Drum" by Aaron Goodvin.

Things I Am Actually Going To Do This Semester

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
