| Me, sophomore prom, tragic. The woman who did my hair told me that she'd "never curled hair" before which pretty much explains this I'd say. |
HOOOOLD UP.
... Did you have ANY fun at prom? Any? No. Nope. Nada. You didn't. Definitely not.
Reasons why prom is not fun at all:
1) You're in high school. In high school, you're in limbo. You're not as pitiful as you were middle school, but you also definitely do not have the street cred of the college kids which makes it okay for you to crack a beer with Dad. So you're stuck stealing water bottles of gin mixed with liquer because you think hey, it's better than cooking wine. Or, if you're like me, you go to a dance completely sober with your teachers. So next ...
2) You're at a dance, with your teachers. Don't get me wrong, I loved my teachers in high school. We were straight homies. That said, definitely didn't care to spend a 3 hour long evening in Boston with them wearing a floor length dress that I paid way too much money to have. Which brings me to ...
3) You paid way too much money for everything. You buy a dress that the freshman 15 instantly scoffs into a hand-me-down before you can wear it again; you pay for limos and not a single person fits or is comfortable or knows what to say to their date unless you're actually dating (rare); you pay for your ticket. (I don't know if this is true in all high schools, but our tickets cost upwards of one hundred dollars. I could write probably one hundred posts about all of the things I could have bought with that one hundred dollars.*)
And finally ..
4) YOU'RE AT PROM. And prom is just never fun. Before prom, fun. After prom, wicked fun! Prom? ...
In conclusion. Prom is the bad deli meat in the middle of killer bread. Like challah or crusty sourdough.
*And by that I mean what my lovely dates could have bought with that one hundred dollars. Thx guyz.
