<p>i went last year and had a wicked good time. i dont like to dance but its great to just hang out with all your friends, take pics, and ooo the after parties :)
this year im going with one of my best friends (yes, a girl. im a guy). i bought both our tickets (140), my tux (100), corsage (25). im getting driven by my best friend (this time its a guy). im expecting it to be pretty fun. probably less date-like than last year since we are seniors and wanna hang out with all of our friends. the after party is getting confusing cuz so many friends dislike friends of their friends, etc. should be easy for me bc my dates having one. i just have to control who she is letting come to it though.</p>
<p>Prom sucked. I went and wanted to kill myself. If I want to watch soft core porn, I have Girls Gone Wild...</p>
<p>Dinner and the after party are always ace, however.</p>
<p>The thing is, I are talking about models like AMGs (I'm envious; "just" an S430). No kidding. </p>
<p>But yeah, prom sounds like a lot of fun, but I have no idea what we're doing afterwards. In fact, I need to be in CT the next day (Saturday).</p>
<p>I'm actually looking forward to prom, even though it's a complete rip-off ($77 a ticket plus everything else), and it's uber-fancy at our school. But I'm just going with my best friends and I'm really excited.</p>
<p>loving your dress camelia! betsey johnson along w/ bcbg and laundry dresses are some of my faaavs!! i have yet to find a dress....</p>
<p>I'm going to my prom, but I'm not going to the school i'm going to NOW. I'm going to the school i left behind 7 months ago. It's in England, and I'm pretty excited. I'm just gonna hang out with my friends for 3 weeks and enjoy prom/graduation with them. Our last big bang in high school. bittersweet.</p>
<p>I opted not to go for financial reasons. Instead, I'm working at a deli from 4 to 11 that night.</p>
<p>I went last year with this girl who asked me and it completely wiped out any spare cash I had. Tickets (she expected me to pay for hers even though she asked me), limo, extremely fancy restaurant (she bought the most expensive thing on the menu bringing the bill to $150+tip - I, yet again, had to pay)).</p>
<p>I know I won't regret it.</p>
<p>Well, to simply answer the question, I'm going with my friend from my IB Biology class who's...just about as crazy as me, she also happens to be one of the best trumpet players in the school. With her craziness and my craziness, it's going to be officially kick-ass.</p>
<p>And since I'm a guy, I don't have to worry about dress shopping, for...well...obvious reasons.</p>
<p>eh i dont know if i should go either</p>
<p>Here's my problemo: All my guy friends are dating sophomores (aka craddle robbing) since they're all 18. Sooooo... I got screwed over and wasn't asked by some of my best guy friends who I thought would go with me. So now, I'm waiting for my friend to call me to tell me whether or not a friend's guy friend who's OK looking (w/e I already knew all the good looking ones would be gone... hahaha) wants to go with me. Its soooo complicated. And it sucks because we have to buy tickets by Friday, so I pretty much have to know like NOW. Luckily, I put a dress on hold a month and a half ago and made my hair and makeup appointment back in January. Now, all my friends w/ dates are scrambling for hair appointments. How ironic. lol</p>
<p>Aw, that stinks, cowtipper.</p>
<p>Prom seems to create a lot of problems. I'm dreading it (it's in two days... ew.)</p>
<p>And, I have strep, which makes everything SO much better....</p>
<p>Bananagirl, go, don't be lame! :P</p>
<p>banana girl ur gonna be lame and not cool and noone will ever talk to you ever again if you dont go.</p>
<p>Exactly!!! ^</p>
<p>Okay, this is my current problem:</p>
<p>I asked this girl out, and though we are close, we really don't have any friends in common. So my friends are going in one limo, and so are hers. Does proper etiquette dicate me going with my date's group, or should I bring her with my friends? I don't know what to do. I really want to go in my friend's limo, and she wants to go with hers. And don't even get me started with after-prom...</p>
<p>each of you go with your friends. it will be magical to see her come out of the limo all dressed up, and you guys will be truly surprised by each others sexiness and completely satisfied with their choice of limo, and you will never want to see your friends again because you will fall in love and spend all of after-prom making out in a hot air balloon on its way to france to get married and have 3 babies and die of old age happily together. that got out of hand.... ok just each go with your friends. there.</p>
<p>I'm going to mine (junior-senior) and went to mine and my former bf's (seniors only) last year. I considered not going this year, but have a couple friends who will kill me if I don't show up, so I'm going. Peer pressure is a terrible thing :-).</p>
<p>I'd actually say, if you're having qualms, don't go if it's a junior-senior or you have a really small prom. When there's less than 200 people at prom, you feel VERY awkward dancing.</p>
<p>However, if your school does a big prom celebration (like my former bf's) go. It's awesome and a very comfortable experience as long as you go with someone/a group that you're friendly with.</p>
<p>missybear, you mean i go with my friends' group, and she goes with hers? are you sure that's considered "proper"? because though i'd like that, i've never heard of anyone doing that before.</p>
<p>and besides, there's pre-prom with pictures and stuff. wouldn't that be really ackward?</p>
<p>i just don't know her friends that well, and she doesn't know any of mine. i get the feeling i'd be ackward with them, and vice versa. PROM is SO FRUSTRATING ADKSJFADJFDKASFKALDSF</p>
<p>if i were you, i'd just go with her friends. stops a fight that could happen.
we had plenty of people on party-bus that weren't with "their" group of friends, and even people how didn't go to out school. pre-prom taking pictures flys by.</p>
