Our college years are full of dramatic “I’m not a grown up!” moments- mostly unexpected, and typically unwanted. Anonymous Valley writers discuss it all, from avoiding basic responsibilities to dealing with the big, bad future. Let’s talk about it.

I absolutely love to dance. It’s not good dancing, but whenever I hear one of my favorite songs playing I am the first one to bust a move. You’ll see me trying to doing any type of dance move from “screwing the light bulb,” to “moving the lawn,” to Shakira’s “Hips Don’t Lie” or Beyoncé’s ‘Single Ladies.”
But the one type of dancing I simply cannot deal with happens to be the most popular type in college: grinding.
Even the word itself gives me the chills. Grinding is basically like, “Hey! I don’t know you and I probably never will get to know you, but let’s intimately rub our body parts together while listening to House Music.”
My fear of grinding goes back to 8th grade, when the high school I was going to attend hosted a dance for the incoming freshman. During the dance, the boy who I had a crush on during middle school (who was obviously the main topic of my diary) asked me to dance. What I didn’t know is that boys in my grade were experimenting with this dance move called “Grinding.”
Little innocent me, who never even had her first kiss and still got excited about being hugged by the opposite sex, was told to face the opposite way of my crush and lean my body downwards while he pushed all his weight against my behind. HECK NO!
It was just so weird and uncomfortable. I had never been touched like that before in such a casual way. You would think that I would be scared of boys or dancing, but no, I’ve matured since then.
Actually in college, I’m a total Frat Star. I have my endless supply of frackets and my going out wardrobe doesn’t change from summer to winter. And I love boys, but this odd fear of mine comes up a lot when I go out to frats because the first thing a guy asks a girl when he is interested in her is, “Hey you want to dance?”
And I don’t think he means slow dancing to Avici. He obviously means grinding. So I always have to come up with some weird response to get out of it and this allows him to think that I’m not interested in him.
I don’t feel comfortable getting so close with someone who I know nothing about. Grinding is basically a sexual act with someone with your clothes on. I mean come on, we all know what it really looks like. Strangers are literally bumping and rubbing their “areas” into each other, and if that’s the way I am supposed to find a cute guy around here to date, then no thank you. Boys have to work to get that close to my body, it’s not as easy as putting on my favorite song.
If you like grinding, have at it! Grind away! Maybe I’m just weird and there aren’t any other people like me out there who feel uncomfortable doing it. But if you do agree with me, don’t be afraid to tell the other person you don’t feel comfortable and continue on with your cheesy dance moves.
Even though this fear that I have makes it a little harder to have a guy pursue me since it requires more effort, I think it helps me too. Because one day I’ll find that guy who will love to do ‘The Sprinkler” with me, and all that touching and intimacy will come in good time.

Klikam tu od dobrych paru miesiecy, wiec chyba moge cos dorzucic od siebie. Trafilem tam przez znajomego z innego watku, z prostego powodu — mialem dosc tego cyrku z dokumentami gdzie indziej. To co FieryPlay ma w lobby wyglada solidnie — jakies 2800 tytulow, przede wszystkim Pragmatic Play, Play’n GO, NetEnt i troche Yggdrasil i paroma rzeczami od Big Time Gaming.
Sam siedze najczesciej na Sweet Bonanza i Book of Dead, nic odkrywczego. Plus za to ze wersje demo sa dostepne od reki, sprawdzilem tak ze cztery nowe sloty zanim wrzucilem prawdziwa kase. Sortowanie gier natomiast jest przecietne — brakuje mi filtra po zmiennosci.
Dzial z krupierami oparte na Evolution co akurat jest zaleta. Klasyka: ruletka, blackjack, i oczywiscie game shows typu Crazy Time — siedze tam czasem godzine zamiast dziesieciu minut. Krupierzy to zywe osoby, w wiekszosci anglojezyczni, polskojezycznego dealera brak — dla czesci osob to minus.
Bonus powitalny w FieryPlay to 100% do 2000 zl plus 100 FS, rozbite na kilka dni. Wager x35 — da sie przerobic, choc trzeba pilnowac. Zdarzaly sie drobne no deposit spiny po potwierdzeniu telefonu, nie liczylbym na to na stale. Zerknij na warunki zanim klikniesz — promocje rotuja dosc szybko, biezace promo znajdziesz na [url=https://swizzpools.com/]fieryplay casino[/url] jesli chcesz sprawdzic przed rejestracja.
Konto zrobilem w dwie minuty, min. depozyt to 20 zl. Wrzucam kase Mastercardem, dostepne sa rowniez Skrill, Neteller i platnosci w BTC. Wyplaty ida szybko na portfele, karta to juz dwa-trzy dni. Weryfikacja na start — standard, poszlo gladko.
Z komorki lece przez przegladarke, nie ma appki, strona radzi sobie dobrze. Czat z supportem na FieryPlay odpisal mi po polsku bez dluzszego czekania, chociaz raz dostalem odpowiedz zywcem z FAQ. Licencja Curacao — nie MGA, wiec swiadomosc ryzyka po twojej stronie. Limitow na siebie nie ustawialem, ale opcja jest w profilu.
Gram tu od dobrych paru miesiecy, wiec juz chyba wypada cos napisac. Znalazlem to z polecenia kolegi, z prostego powodu — mialem dosc czekania po tydzien na kase gdzie indziej. Lobby w FieryPlay wyglada solidnie — jakies 2500 tytulow, przede wszystkim Pragmatic Play, Play’n GO, NetEnt z dorzuconym Yggdrasil i paroma rzeczami od Big Time Gaming.
Ja osobiscie siedze najczesciej na Gates of Olympus i Sweet Bonanza, banal, wiem. Plus za to ze wersje demo sa dostepne od reki, przetestowalem pare nowosci zanim zaczalem grac na realne. Sortowanie gier za to kuleje — szukanie po nazwie dziala, reszta srednio.
Sekcja live oparte na Evolution i to widac. Ruletka, blackjack, plus te ich show typu Crazy Time — potrafi wciagnac na dluzej niz zakladalem. Krupierzy realni, glownie po angielsku, polskojezycznego dealera brak — komus moze to przeszkadzac.
Pakiet na start u nich w FieryPlay to 100% do 1500 zl plus spiny plus 100 FS, wydawane po 20 dziennie. Obrot x35 — ani rewelacja, ani dramat. Byly tez drobne no deposit spiny po potwierdzeniu telefonu, ale to raczej okazjonalnie. Zerknij na warunki zanim klikniesz — promocje rotuja dosc szybko, biezace promo znajdziesz na [url=https://swizzpools.com/]fieryplay casino[/url] jesli chcesz sprawdzic przed rejestracja.
Zakladanie konta to jakies minute, moze dwie, od 20 zl mozna zaczac. Place karta, ale sa tez Skrill, Neteller i platnosci w BTC. Wyplaty w FieryPlay na Skrilla przyszly mi tego samego dnia, karta to juz dwa-trzy dni. Weryfikacja za pierwszym razem — typowe papiery, przeszlo w jedna dobe.
Z komorki gram bez aplikacji, nie ma appki, strona radzi sobie dobrze. Support w FieryPlay odpowiada po polsku w kilka minut, raz musialem powtorzyc pytanie dwa razy. Dzialaja na licencji Curacao — dla mnie ok, ale kazdy niech oceni sam. Limity depozytu da sie ustawic w ustawieniach konta.
