<p>I don’t want to go because I’m bitter about not having a boyfriend anymore. :/</p>
<p>I’ll definitely be going. Senior prom is basically the last time you’re together as a whole class, and of course there’s parties afterward that are better than the actual event.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Wait…are you serious? Um…didn’t anyone make fun of you? People give you that look if you don’t go with a date…its really depressing and hurtful when they do that :[</p>
<p>^yeah, people are definitely judgmental 
Kinda the -are you really that lame/loserish you couldn’t even find someone decent to go with you?- thoughts that are really mean. :(</p>
<p>Who cares if its “conformist” if its fun? If you don’t find it fun that’s one thing, but don’t not do something because everyone else is going. On an unrelated note, our school might cancel Prom this year due to lack of interest (there’s this new rule that everyone hates).</p>
<p>“That means that those people are conforming to the group that isn’t conforming.”
exactly the point i was going to make :)</p>
<p>i really would rather not go to prom, but everyone makes SUCH a big deal about it. like, my mother would never let me live it down, ugh. sooo, i guess it looks like i’m going! -_- & all of the PRAMA [yes, our school’s official name for prom drama] started back in january & it’s all anyone can ever talk about. IT’S JUST A STUPID EFFING DANCE. & now i have to find a dress. & a date. awesomeeeee.</p>
<p>I don’t know if I’m going. I’ve never been to a school dance, but unless I have friends who really pressure me for this, I see no reason to. It seems boring, I’ll end up just laughing way too much at bad jokes.</p>
<p>Not planning on going this year. It’s like 130 bucks plus I’d have to buy a dress. None of the people I know are going and I doubt I’m going to be asked by anyone I’d want to go with.</p>
<p>Senior year I will though, regardless of whether I want to or not. It’s an experience I feel that I should go through.</p>
<p>A true nonconformist makes their own decisions regardless of what others decide. This is what others have said, just thought I’d sum it up.</p>
<p>How could you not go to prom?</p>
<p>EVERYBODY goes to prom…</p>
<p>The embittered antisocial loner in me doesn’t plan on going to prom. I’ve just never been good enough friends with people in my school to sincerely go to some formal event celebrating our times together.
I didn’t even like 8th grade semi-formal, the only dance I bothered to go to.
But since my mother didn’t go to her prom (it was a girls’ school bring your own boy prom), she will live voraciously through me and force me go anyway.
I’m now contemplating which will be harder to find - a perfect dress or a satisfactory date?</p>
<p>I can’t afford prom right now and I don’t feel like wasting my good money on a ticket. I would pay for the dress but not the ticket.</p>
<p>prom is expensive and ill only go if i can get the girl i like to go wit me. but its hard for an asian dawg in an all-white school. i just need to grow some balls and ask her…</p>
<p>2 months ago, I thought I wasn’t going, but then everything changed <3.</p>
<p>Prom at my school, surprisingly, is not a big deal.</p>
<p>I’ll probably go. The only issue is finding a date when you’re a black male looking for a date amidst predominately Asian friends. Yeah, <0% chance, anyone?</p>
<p>^^they wont go with you cause you’re black? Aren’t you friends?</p>
<p>I’m a sophomore, I’ll worry about it when it matters. Mk</p>
<p>^^I wouldn’t go to a prom with a black male either. You can call me racist, but I don’t care.</p>
<p>I mean if he’s black but he’s a cool nig (sorry if I offended you <_<), than it’s whatever. I know a white acting black kid that got into harvard because he was black but he’s amazingly smart in turn. He was one of those coveted URM’s who don’t act the part. Ahaha.</p>
