Prom was awesome!


But of course, Class of 2010 was there, and we always know how to throw a good party. If you were born in late 1991-early 1992, you were born with party genes.
But let me start from the beginning of my promtastic tale. About a month ago, my bff Kat invited me to go to prom with her, since, as a graduate, I couldn't go without being invited by a current student. Then the month of shopping and working out ensued, with a lot of good times and great sales being discovered. I found a great dress, cute (not to mention comfy) shoes, and a gorgeous mask. I might start collecting masquerade masks after this.
Then we (Kat, 4 other friends, and I) had to find a place to take prom pictures. We looked at a local tree place, thingy magig, but that was being rented out for a wedding on the same day. We wound up picking a hospital with gorgeous fountains.
Prom day arrives. Kat stayed the night before, so we got up early and went to work. My grandmother did my hair and Kat did my nails before I took her home so she could get ready herself. When I came back, my aunt did a gorgeous job on my makeup and finally, finally, I could put on my beautiful black dress. Now fully dressed, I went to pick Kat up, who still wasn't ready. By the time she was dressed, we were late to meet the others for pictures. Oh well, we looked hot. My grandma came along to help us take pics and we had a good time looking around the hospital's beautiful scenery.
After our photoshoot, we picked up another friend and went to Summer Palace to eat. I tried some eel, which actually wasn't too bad, but it did look like Petrie from Land Before Time. Needless to say, we ate well before prom lol.
Then, finally, we went to prom. I thought that my hair loose, a mask on, and in a dress, no one would recognize me. The first seven people we saw who greeted "Hey, Kayla" kind of ruined that plan for me. Prom was a blast; we danced, yelled, and had a great time with people we never expected to hang out with. I couldn't have asked for a better night. I was dancing with some of my best friends in the world, I was making eye contact with a hot dj, and then the girls came over to stay at my house again. I can't wait to do this all over again sometime.
