Roaring 20's Party

Attending the Jitterbugs 1920's party seems like it was so long ago, though it felt like an ageless time in history. This is a flash back of a photo of me home after getting dressed to go to a party. Prior to the party, i researched the clothing i should have worn for the party. Once i picked out my outfit took a snap shot of myself in my nineteen twenties apparel. Then i went to the jazziest parties i have ever been to.

Before the party started dance lessons were available for people who wanted to learn. I invited a good friend of mine to the take dance lessons with me and I experienced the amazing feel of the roaring twenties party. Everyone danced with one another. Every time the song would change everyone would switch partners. I was so excited with it being my first time in the Flapper Era, besides just using my imagination in my bedroom. The next photo that night shows my soul fit into that era. As you can see the excitement crossing my legs before i intended swinging them. After posing with my legs crossed, my friend and i right walking in the doors to begin swing dancing lessons.

As i crossed my legs in my soul i felt the music of Sophie Tucker. My spirit was live entering the party. Dancing on the dance floor i knew i would not be able to cool down, well before the party was over. In the moment i felt as i was one of the "Red Hot Mamma's", that night in era of the nineteen twenties.

I wondered how the Jitterbugs group got its name. I discovered with the music being the popular fast paced music in that area is where the name came from. In excitement i got jittery dancing on the dance floor, while swinging my legs to the sound of the jazzy up-beat music.

Everyone at the party was having a grand time roaring the nineteen twenties in the excitement of the crowd. My soul resonated with the free will popular culture of the decade of the nineteen twenties. Being free spirited in nature, i was able to understand how the culture of that decade rejected traditional moral standards.

There was a man who was a regular who came in and was a really good dancer. Being impressed by moves he said I was a good dancer. He said i was doing very well with it being my first time swing dancing at a nineteen twenties event. The crowd looked at me in amazement watching my moves on the dance floor.

Many of the dancers saw me picking up on the moves, rather quickly and wanted to see me in action again. One of the dancers gave me free tickets to the next party. When i received two free tickets to return to their next party i was thrilled about the idea of coming back. I was sure i would be back as it was for certain that my soul was a part of that jazz age.

However, every club in my city was shut on down due to the global epidemic. There was no other club that did nine-teen twenties swing dancing, and that was closed too. In my room from time to time during the epidemic i found myself glancing at the tickets i got from my jitterbug friends that night. I began reminiscing on the moment when i would soon be able to return to back jitterbugs swing dancing.

I missed the splendid times I had in the company of others at the party as well as being around people in society, i wanted more then ever for the Corona Virus epidemic to be over. When i think about my photos of the roaring twenties party I think about going back to their swing lessons and dancing at their parties. I know time has passed and since the global epidemic. Meanwhile, i created some moves of my own in my bedroom, that i am eagerly waiting to show my jitterbug friends when they open back up.
