Nah. I'm told I put the C in Caucasian when I dance, so I'm not spending $300 to look like an idiot. I don't fault you for going, though.

I'm not spending money to stand around near a punch bowl and look depressed/lonely for a few hours and jealously watch all the happy couples dancing. Not my idea of romantic.

Oohhhh, well I went to both of my balls (aka prom) and I enjoyed them. I found my year 11 one alot more fun though! I had a date to both although I spent the year 12 one trying to avoid him as much as possible.. :oops:
Your dress sounds awesome! I went with very simple ones and they were both turquoise, one light and long, one short and dark. :) at least you're prepared to go and have alot of fun!

I'm going with my girlfriend. No pressure, since we both don't really care too much. Keeping it simple. :)

I was going to go until my boyfriend broke up with me a couple of days ago. We had plans and everything, but then he broke up with me. I don't know if I'll be invited to go with anyone else, and if I did go it would probably be with a couple of friends of mine and not a date with a boyfriend.

I am not going. UIL Regional for academics is around the same time and UIL Regional is much cheaper than prom(UIL is free). Also, I don't really like any girls at my school and would not want to go to prom by myself. I learned going alone was bad at the Homecoming dance.

I don't think I'll be going; it just doesn't seem worth it. I'll probably save up money and attend grad night instead, which seems to be a lot more fun. Prom's in a month and I haven't heard anyone talk about it yet.

I went last year and it was OK but not the best experience of my life. I won't have a date if I go this year (I didn't last year either) but then neither will my two closest friends, so that's all right. It's just that I don't like dressing up and I feel stupid not dancing but even stupider if I do dance. If there will be strobe lights there I have a perfect excuse not to go, because the last time I was exposed to strobe lights I had a seizure.

Some guy asked me if I was going to prom, and I rolled my eyes. I hate those subtle insults. :x
