I recently was asked to be a date for the upcoming prom to a lovely gal. It just took me to the past lane of my prom. I remember that day because that was the day when I learned that you can be lucky and unlucky on the same day.
I still remember my beautiful date "Gloria Winston" all dressed up and looking awesome. How all the other guys were just jealous to see us dance on the floor and my friends poking me for my luck. And when time was right I leaned in and kissed her, it was magical and everything was perfect until she started puking all over me because her friends had spiked her drinks. My suite and night was all ruined, the whole night I was just consoling her and holding her hair as she puked. Good old memories  |

It is nice to be asked again and time to buy new tux.

My own prom was more or less unmemorable for me. I remember the girl, the corsage, and that I was very uncomfortable about it all, mostly. The fact that I graduated High School at sixteen might have played a part. Overall lack of experience with the opposite sex was a problem, which was brought on by shyness, and by only having gained the privilege of driving the year before, was a partial cause of that.
I'm actually glad I didn't grow up in the world of today. My children had less than fun times, because the movies they saw growing up, all made out that High School proms were incredibly dramatic and important. Most were made about the children of the wealthy upper classes, who lived in large metropolises which spent thousands of dollars to host the proms. The real thing was quite a let down for them. |

Never been to a prom for the following reasons:
Never been asked. Always got shot down. Even if I did have a date not only could I not afford to rent the clothes but the ride I had looked like something out of Mad Max. My truck was so bad that My younger sister would rather walk to school and be late then have me drop her off on the way. |

I remember I met him through being friends with his sister. He always followed me home [damn stalker. Just kidding]. He went to the same school as me. We aren't together, anymore, but we have each others phone number. We reminisce about what we used to do. We're more like best friends. I don't even think I could ever be attracted to him anymore, because once I met Stephen, I was hooked for life :)

My Senior Prom was memorable because the starter on my car acted up and I had to work on it....tux and all. We had met friends of ours for dinner and then as we were leaving my car wouldn't start. Thankfully my dad had taught me tricks when working on a car. It took me about ten minutes to get the car going, and I somehow managed not to get dirty. My date and I had a great laugh about it while we drove to the dance hall where our prom was being held. We danced for an hour, made the rounds, then went to the hotel for some Prom Night fun!

Dang goof
 I also graduated from school very early not quite 16. So I actually went the prom at 15. I couldn't find a dress I liked so I made it. Lord that was a pain.. The one and only formal have I made. My date was the love of my life..Til he found out I wanted more from life than to live in my home town the rest of my life. Boy I wish I knew then what I know now... sigh It was a memorable night in so many ways.. In a very sweet innocent way. The good ole days. sigh dang Beach beat me to the punch there.. |

Aren't you too old to be at a prom? Won't you be bored hanging around with kids? "I keep getting older....they stay the same age....yes they do." -Dazed and Confused |

Well that is true, people just want to live like in movies. Prom is a very important part of a teenager's life and a memory which is always cherished in every reunion. |

It was cheesy and ridiculous but always worked..it was really fun |
