    My 6th form ball was one of the best nights of my life. It was truly great. The 7th form ball was almost as good too, and it was on the night of my birthday.

    I didn't go to my GCSE prom, but I intend to go to my A-Level prom.

    So i have nooooooooooooo *checks* no memories of my prom. I really don't get the big deal about it in America.

    My GCSE Prom was great. I went with a guy I'd had a crush on since Year 8, he knew how I felt but had always wanted to be just friends, which was cool with me. He was a great laugh to go with and I shared a limo with him and 6 of our other friends. We also danced alot at the prom.

    Also, we had a 'vote for the top 5 best dress's' competition...I got 4th! Out of 80! Go me *does a little dance* ooooh my dress was gorgeous Shame I don't have a picture of it

    So yes I really enjoyed my prom, but best was the after-prom party that one of the nicer 'popular' girls had at (literally, I'm not joking) her parents mansion. She invited the entire year, anyone could come and basically everyone did come! Great times...

    I can't remember what it was that I was doing when my prom happened. I think I was off somewhere, having an adventure... at least, I'd like to think so. Most likely, I really was, but I'm not sure. I wasn't in school most of the time my final semester of high school since I only had one class.
    I believe in the power of humanity.

    At our school, we don't get to pick our dates ourselves, so we have a lottery. So I've always ended up with a person I didn't know. It wasn't exactly the best nights of my life, but I got to meet and talk to some new people. And girls are incredibly sexy at proms.

    That sounds really interesting. I wish more schools did that.

    I didn't go to prom last year. Or this year. But I'll go next year!

    It's just scary, the thought of wearing a dress!!! I feel like I'm way too little/young to wear a dress!
    This subliminal message could be meant for YOU. But it's probably not. Move along ;D

    Prom is next year for me and I'm not too terribly interested. I've never gone to a dance that wasn't mandatory (what's up with having a mandatory graduation dance at the end of 8th grade?) I've only ever worn a tux once it my life for a wedding in which I was a jr. groom's man or something like that and it was horribly uncomfortable, but that might have been because it was in a building with no air-conditioning, it was 80-some degrees, and there were loads of candles right behind me.

    Honestly, though, I don't see why prom is supposed to be so magnificent. Unless I have a girlfriend at the time (knowing me that's unlikely) I don't think I'll be going. This year prom costs $75 and that's without the cost of the rented tux and the whole shabang and I really don't feel like blowing so much money to just go and sit around doing nothing.

    I have promised myself that if I do end up going I'm having my sister teach me to dance first.

    I went to my senior prom with a group of friends, mostly because they made it seem like a ton of fun. (My mom also reallyreally wanted me to go. ^^;)

    I was going to go to my senior prom mostly out of obligation, as I skipped my junior prom. What had me actually looking forward to prom was when the theme was announced as Asian/Oriental for that year.

    I found the dress the summer before, almost a year in advance, for a bargain. Picked up shoes and a bag along the way, and the day of prom, I went to my friend Jeni's house, where we did each other's hair and make-up and stuff. I think the most expensive part of prom for me was the ticket, at $35. (I think I spent under $100 total for my senior prom.)

    I don't really like to dance, and I personally think prom is really overrated, but my friends and I had a good time. My mom's planning the prom at my old high school this year, and I might drop in for a few hours if I make the trip back from university in time. Most of the friends I went with last year are seniors this year, so it'll be good to see them again.
    Smile. ^_^

    this will be my first prom coming up. to sy the least my homecoming memories haven't been the best(as a topic of conversation). my first two i went to were awful. a girl i was hoping to have a future with crushed me in front of a bunch of other people..... i was at that homecoming for approximatly 20 minutes. the other one wasn't exactly memorable as a different girl i "went" with kinda ignored me. thankfully i finally found a woman who cares for me. hopefully this prom will be the best damce that i've ever been to.

    Being wise comes in two parts: 1) having a lot to say and 2) not saying it.

    I am definately not going to my schools prom... not point, those dance things get loud.... I get a headache, become snappish, and will regret each snip I made. *shrug*

    Mom doesn't like my attitude though.. she likes all the pompous stuff that happens like that.. personally all those "traditions" and "pomp" is a bunch of crap.(Now if I had a girlfreind I may go to prom... afterall I do lvoe to dress up.. and we can have fun there or anywhere else.. so why not there where we have an excuse to drain our parents pockets, but I dont' got a GF(either kind)).


    STILL Updating the anime list. . . I didn't think I was that much of an anime freak! I don't even want to consider updating the manga list!

    Mine was pretty fun. I took a girl who was the daughter of a Hewlett-Packard executive. She was Indian and prettier than the posh La Jolla restuarant's dishes we had that night. Needless to say, I was very poor afterwards.
