Prom is one of the most anticipated events in high school. Everyone is looking forward to that night as if it is the most exciting thing on earth. I remember a few days before our Junior/Senior Night, all my friends were chatting non-stop about what they’re going to wear and who’s going to be their date. I was hesitant to go but my dad, of all people, convinced me to attend 
During that time, my mom was not around so it was my dad who accompanied me to shop for a dress and a pair of high heels. He even hired someone to fix my hair and to put make-up on my face. Memories of my high school prom include young girls in nice dresses and boys in mens suits, boys and girls dancing to the tune of King and Queen of Hearts, and my dad picking me up before 12AM. I think the reason why everyone’s excited about prom is because it’s our only chance to dress up and look really gorgeous. I miss my dad. My personality is really boring. I was never interested in parties or social gatherings. But what if I didn’t attend our high school prom? What if dad didn’t convince me? Wouldn’t that be sad?

wow. I like it! You’re Dad convincing you, shopping with you and driving you to the prom and all! that’s just so sweet of him.^^
unfortunately I never experienced a prom night. I was enrolled in a Catholic school administered by Brothers and our brother director thought that having a prom is just some way of showing off and that we’d rather have our money spend over some worthy things like donating it or something. I do get the his good intentions but I just hope we/I get to experience something like that. it’s just after all once in your lifetime right?
sorry, I think I just ranted here. haha. So be thankful that you were able to experience a night like that. I’m sure you had a blast.
