Taking someone to the ball is a dream for many; however asking someone to go with them is a nightmare for all. Social pressure causes no one to risk the embarrassment of rejection anymore, thus very few girls are asked every year. Unless you want a guaranteed yes, you must go through the painstaking effort of occasionally foolishly flirting with your crush in Café Ljubo, until you are at the point of comfort to begin after class snap chatting and then surely losing sleep whilst late night texting. No one wants to do that either. Between risking embarrassment and requiring an unnecessary amount of flirtatious effort, just does not seem to appeal to anyone anymore.
There’s got to be a better way!
Wouldn’t it be easier to do as a people do in the Wonip village in the Toll Island and show affection by poking one’s love stick through the wall of their dream dates’ bedroom at midnight? Yes that’s right, there’s an actual tribe that does that. Now imagine a boy called Jimmy and his crush called Sarah. Just empathize with the embarrassment that Jimmy would experience if his little love stick is not accepted as it dangles in Sarah’s bedroom (note that love stick is a smooth wood carved ritual pole). Not to mention that Jimmy is loosing sleep over the thoughts of his crush. So do not think that you have it hard, put yourself in Jimmy’s shoes and go hang your love pole in your crush’s bamboo thatched covered hut. Man-up and ask someone to the ball with roses or else the committee will carefully select whom you sit next to, and as president of the committee, Varun, states: « we will have fun with that. » Trust me it is not something you want.
