Prom April 25, 2008

So most likely everyone is writing about prom because it is only a week away. Everyone was really into talking about prom and everything before the new year. Everyone was already thinking about their dress and making limo arrangements. I don’t really see what the big deal is, I mean its just another dance where the girls are paying anywhere between $90-$600 for a dress, not to mention the hundreds of dollars that are being spent on the limo. The guys aren’t spending nearly as much because the only thing that they really have to worry about is making sure that their tux matches the girl’s dress and that costs some money but not nearly as much as the dress, and then maybe they are lucky and are paying for both the girl’s and their own ticket as well as the limo payment as well, that is if they are even getting a limo. I’m sorry but paying a whole bunch of money on a dance that really isn’t even worth it is stupid. Everyone in my family that has gone to prom says that it was a waste of time and money. You aren’t allowed to leave prom until 11:30 and then from there you have the option of going to the afterprom party but apparently that sucks and is a waste of time, oh you aren’t allowed to leave from there until 4:30 in the morning either and most people, like my sister, sleep through the whole afterprom party anyway. What a waste of time and money. Think of the many many hours that people spend on getting their dresses fitted and then the alterations and then the hair, the nails, the shoes, and all of the other shopping that goes along with it. After all that is done you have wasted well over 24hours of your like on a dance that you are going to regret ever going to for the rest of your life.
