Prom...

---

So yeah... apparently I have to go to this sick ritual of high school called "prom". I'm not looking forward to it... at all.. And I guess I kind of pissed off my friends when I gave them all the negatives about prom basically killing their joy . I didn't mean to I just really don't want to go but they're giving me the guilt trip. This weekend they dragged me to go look for a dress which was almost a failure because these dresses are made for females with like... no butts and huge boobs and thin stick bodies so everything looked awkward on me. I did find one that's almost right but still kind of hugs the body too much.... I really dislike dresses and exposing too much. If it were up to me I'd go in some jeans and a nice tee. But no... And they bought me these pretty nice shoes but I can't walk in heels for the life of me. They're trying to teach me but it's nothing but false hope. And I still have the bruises from tripping this Saturday. So I'm wondering did you guys feel the same way about your prom or do I have HS issues?

If you don't want to go... then don't go?

lol true. LTTA, I decided I wasn't going since last year... evidently what I say doesn't matter. But that's kind of the reason I'm going is because my boyfriend is going and it would be another step closer guaranteeing my trip to New Zealand next year. It just sounds like foolery but whatever.You wore a Renaissance dress? Wow. what did that look like. See, I'm a big dork. I've always wanted to wear a Eowyn or Arwen dress (Lord of the Rings ) and ride a horse lol. But my dress is long and....yeah...

evidently what I say doesn't matter. I don't get it. Who is going to force you to go if you don't want to go? And why does it not matter what you say about where you go on a certain day?

I didn't go.. Can't say I regret it.

oh yea cause you were too "cool" for it? :grin:

at least that's what my step father said. then again he was a rebel and stole cars when he was in high school soo........

I always figured high school was better in the earlier years like the 90s, 80s, and 70s specifically because of the generation. this generation is kind of suckish and I guarantee they had more fun doing even the most simplest of things than we do now.

High school may have been better in the 70's, 80's and 90's but the prom dresses are sooo much better now lol.I Personally loved high school. I was happy to go when I left but I had a great time. It's only your junior year so its not a huge deal if you skip it, but I think you should go atleast once. I never went to mine and I regretted it, and so did all my friends that didn't go.

I thought the 90s weren't nearly as good as the 70s. That was the time to be young, when the baby boomers were young.

aww hun you look so gorgeous! and I love your dress. you really fit the renaissance lookI'm choosing to go on a junior prom rather than a senior prom because in my senior year I'm traveling somewhere else.

I didn't go and I don't regret it.Prom is fun apparently. I didn't go because the guy I was dating was a huge douche.
