So recently I done a collab with Caroline Reinhart and we both talked about Prom, you can check out my post here:
Yeah.. my prom is in 8 months.
8
Months
You may be wondering, prom is fun, what's bad about that?
Back in primary school it would've been fun but not now, definitely not.
I'm not sure why I feel this way but I just really don't want a prom, the stress of trying to look good with probably land me in hospital and my school severely lacks the 'Troy And Gabriella Romance' it so desperately needs.
I mean seriously there's more romance between me and my phone than there is in the school, and that's saying something.
I'm probably just going to buy a cheap dress from Primark, literally no one cares what you look like and I refuse to spent over £100 on a dress for 1 day.
I'm not even sure I want to go, I'd much rather go to mcdonalds (no joke)
I've been to a prom before and it wasn't 'magical' or anything, I just sat in the corner next to the rusty gym equipment with the 'cool cats' and although I did dance with a load of people (in painful kitten heels) there was only one person I really wanted to dance with and when he finally told my friend he wanted to dance with me (because face it, no one in my school could ask something upfront) what happens?
"PROMS OVER EVERYONE"
Literally I'm not even making this up, I wish I was.
The minute my crush wants to dance with me, the prom finishes..
Oops I just spoiled part 2 of my post I left on Caroline's blog..
Oh well..
Maybe that's why I don't want prom, maybe that lingering bad memory I have of prom has permanently scarred my future prom experiences..
Think I just fell down a worm hole of my own thoughts..again.
Here's the part where I reflect on what my actual point is with this post.
Erm.. I'll add a moral.
I guess the moral is: If you ever have a prom and there's that one person you want to dance with but your both to afraid to say anything (or if there's just someone you want to dance with in general)
YOU
(Imagine me pointing at you)
Grab them and drag them onto the dance floor.

Who cares about the conversation they're probably in?
You tell them "WE ARE DANCING RIGHT NOW, SO LOOK LIKE YOUR HAVING THE TIME OF YOUR LIFE"
Oh how, I wish I was that assertive..
But seriously, even though I probably wont be going to my prom, enjoy yours.
If I do decide to go, I'll be sure to look..
mildly awesome?

Aww, don't stress about prom!! I had mine this year, and I was really dreading it, but it turned out to be lovely!! No one was bitchy and everyone got on really well for once.. Just enjoy it!! (and if you go dress shopping now, no one will have the same dress as you AND you'll get it in the sale!!)
ReplyDeleteBut I totally understand why you don't want to go - it's all so much fuss just for one night.. Pointless, really..
I'm glad to hear you had such a great time! I have a little bit of hope that everyone can forget any grudges they have against people and just have a good time, maybe that'll convince me to go. I'm currently looking at some dresses at the moment, I would buy one now but I feel like I weigh something different every week! Luckily there's so many different dresses to choose from some so I'm not limited!
DeleteHahahahaah, I like the way that you encourage people to be assertive, especially after such a horrible experience! It's really funny, I love this post! Also, thanks for the advice, because I need to prepare!
ReplyDeleteThe world needs more assertive people! It'd make the world a little more interesting (or violent!)
DeleteI'm happy to hear you liked the post, have a good prom!
