college person here.
high school proms/formals.......whatever the heck you call them, are boring.
my college proms thus far have been fun. I'm not a big dancer type person, though the group that I went with does a few dance training a couple of days beforehand. they're all tango people or waltz people, so I've been learning with them when they have the get togethers on how to waltz and tango. I'm okay. just basic steps. the others are slightly more out there.
this past spring prom, I asked the girl who everyone in our close group of friends knew that I liked, she said yes, though it ended up being us all going together as a group (16 or so people) and it was fun. I spent most of the night taking pictures, until she (the girl who I had asked) came over to me, glared at me and told me I would at least have one dance with her. It was fun.
16 people that close, is a fun way to spend a dance. most of us all left after school got out, though a few of us are still there, I have about two or so weeks til I'm back with the group, and I think by the time school starts, it's pretty much going to be known by mid year who will end up dating.....she and I won't be. we're too good and close of friends to do that, the girl that i like I won't be dating til my senior year, seeing as how she won't be at my school til my senior year.
