The Pink Glove Video

There happened to be a trend that hit the hospitals across the USA...I'm talking about the Pink Glove Dance Videos. Its all in YouTube...the videos of other hospitals. Pink Glove I think was started for Breast Cancer Awareness but that ribbon no matter what color has represented all kinds of Cancer.
SO of course my hospital also did one...it started out as a contest. Each participating unit was given less than a minute to perform. And we all had to incorporate the Pink Glove in it somewhere.
My unit (4000) got some volunteers and lucky for us one of us knew some dance moves. After the hours of practicing in my garage and the nightly practices at the Hospital Lobby we final got to tape our dance.
August 13 was the day all the videos were to be shown and the final cut of the Hospital Pink Glove video too. The winners of the contest were to be announced at noon. I made sure I was there and that I wasn't going to be alone. As the three categories were to be announced (Best Choreography, Best use of Costumes/Props & Best Over All Performance) my heart started to skip a beat. Deep inside I wanted to win but all the other videos looked so good too. As the Nominees and winners for the first 2 categories came and went my heart started to sink because I didn't think we could get any nomination. The last category nominees were announced and lo and behold we were nominated and my heart stopped. I was thinking " Well it was an honor just to be nominated."
But they said "Unit 4000 is the winner of the best overall performance!"
and I said... "YEA!!!!" (deep inside: Holy Poop we won)
hehehehehe
