My other great moment around this time was at Sacred Heart International School in Hiroo and it was a Sadie Hawkins dance (a US custom where the girls ask the boys to dance). The Rolling Stones song 'Angie' came on as the lights went low. A sweet, petite Japanese-American girl that I hardly knew asked me to dance. It was unexpected and most welcome. I remember smelling her skin and her long silky black hair and feeling her soft body. My first slow dance! I prayed it would never end. It was without a doubt one of the most incredible three minutes of my life until then. My hormones must have been going insane, rushing around like lunatics - my body had never felt so much, so intensely before. This was good stuff! Even now when I hear that song, I remember that dance.
