I have moves. Not so good out on a dance floor, but in the middle of a crowd at a hardcore concert, I have moves. Swinging fists, legs and elbows, I am a force to be reckoned with. Get too close and you may … no, you will be hurt.
My last hardcore dance session (besides those alone in my dorm) was roughly two weeks ago. When I returned to campus and entered my room, my roommate asked me if I was drunk. I laughed and said I was nowhere near intoxication.
“But, you look so happy,” he replied. I was.
As a somewhat typical college student, I deal with much more drama in my life than I would have expected upon my graduation from high school. I have angst built up inside of me and trust no one, disabling my ability to vent.
The way I see it, my problems are my problems and your problems are your problems, and it always will be this way.
Having been to plenty of hardcore concerts already in my short life, I notice things. I notice that many others enjoy going to shows and letting loose like myself. Quite frankly, I have seen practically all of it except for death. Big bruises, black eyes, broken noses, being knocked out cold; I have seen it.
There is a specific concept behind hardcore dancing, but few fully comprehend it. You have to go hard, you have to go long, and you have to go viciously. You have to go out sore, sweaty and relieved. There is no other way to do it.
The exact way you hardcore dance matters not, as long as what you are doing is worthy of people creating a circle with a radius of at least three feet around you. An easy way to create this space is through running into people and making people understand they are about to see something spectacular.
Once the circle is made, you do your thing; you let all hell loose. You know the exam you just failed? Think about it. You know the girl who just cheated on you? Think about her. And don’t forget about the parents who think you do nothing but get drunk. Think about them.
As long as you keep the drama in your life on your mind, you will conquer your emotions. You will never leave the venue without feeling feeling nothing short of excellent.
