<p>Haha how are the proms like in India?!
Do the guys and girls just stand on opposite sides of the room?!
And do you guys wear salwars/saris/sherwanis?! What music do you play?! Do you play like those love songs from Dilwani Dulhenia Le Jayenge?</p>
<p>Lol that happens at some proms here. It’s sort of awkward.</p>
<p>Um. It’s not like a prom at all. I just mentioned prom to give you an idea of what I meant.
The school farewell is thrown by the eleventh standard students for the 12th standard batch sometime in January after the last pre- boards after something most school call ‘scribble day’ (we take each others school shirts and scribble[nice stuff ofcourse]).</p>
<p>The school farewell is this really formal ocassion, atleast in our school where every 12th grader is greeted with roses and we have to follow a proper dress code which is sherwani and suit for boys and girls in 11th respectively and suit(tux?) and sari for boys and girls in 12th respectively. There is a DJ and everything, we have it in the assembly ground but its in the morning around 11:00 onwards to 4:00.
Songs? All kinds from the corny old ones to the new ones out.</p>
<p>Haha, no there’s no room to stand on opposite sides of, guys and girls can dance with each other if they wish without any problem, lol. It’s a really nice atmosphere so one can dance with anyone they wish to without getting whistled at.</p>
<p>I’m just dreading the sari part. Can you imagine dancing in a sari? I cant even imagine walking without falling in one ;)</p>
<p>Tbh, I like the idea of the american prom better simply because you have it more than twice in your school career.</p>
<p>Guys. GUYS.
TiT #18. is . gone.</p>
<p>Yeah, my winter formal’s coming up and it’s pretty crazy. Haha it’s in my school ballroom. The juniors are hosting it.</p>
<p>But oh goodness, no. I hate wearing saris! They’re so pretty, but really hard to put on and kind of uncomfortable. </p>
<p>I might wear one for my favorite aunt’s wedding this summer.</p>

<p>^ Enjoy the ‘tech malfunction’ while you can. Here we all are, suffering with a huge posting history comprising of nothing but spam.</p>
<p>EDIT- I just noticed! My posting history also got wiped out! I was nearing a 1000. Isn’t this disappointing in the way when you suddenly can’t build properly in tetris?</p>
<p>techfreak99, cafe is a post count freeze zone.</p>
<p>i see…where are you from tippu?</p>
<p>So, we wait another two weeks before ans/blue/funnypunjabi build another TiT, huh?</p>
<p>Oh, darn. I don’t feel like sleeping at all. Half my day went into festive activity and all I feel like doing is alternating b/w sparknotes and cc atm.
I know I’m going to be cursing myself tomorrow. I even forgot to get my customary chocolate for the test tomorrow.</p>
<p>pixie, we can start a new one immediately and call it The Indian Thread XIX why don’t you do the honors?</p>
<p>techfreak, I am just a pretender from the US and I am here to learn about Indians applying to US universities.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>There’s no way I’m starting one when the mods just deleted it.</p>
<p>Why do you call yourself a pretender, Tippu?</p>
