<p>Today is prom day for my school, but I'm just planning to hang out with other friends not going. Who else isn't bothering with Prom?</p>
<p>i'm not going, even though it's my senior year. i consider it a waste of money. i can use the money for something better...like books!!! or clothes. idk. perhaps i'll donate money to a humanitarian organization</p>
<p>I shall not bother if I have no reason to go. I have plenty of booze myself in the basement and need no partygoers to accompany me.</p>
<p>Prom is just something you HAVE to do. I thought for 3.9 years in high school that I was not going to prom. My friends tried every day to convince me to go, I wasn't having it. Eventually I gave in and went. How many high school proms are you going to have in your life? THREE people ended up not going to prom from our class.</p>
<p>And you live in Maine...
There are some who take the partying at other locales the night of prom over the event itself.</p>
<p>I'd like to know what living in Maine has to do with going to a prom...oh and please insinuate that I went to High School in Maine too, that would make it even less relevant.</p>

while i intend on going to prom and having an awesome time, it is really just a dance. you will not be a failure if you don't go, the world won't end if you don't go, colleges won't rescind your admissions if you don't go...</p>
<p>...I wasn't speaking in a literal sense.</p>
<p>im not going.
too close to APs. i have fine arts banquet in 2.5 weeks which is supposed to be better...</p>

oh, i realize that. but a lot of people think that prom, especially senior prom, is the culmination of high school (after graduation). i used to think that, until i realized that it is just a dance...</p>
<p>For us, it was one of the last times our entire class was going to be together, with the exception of graduation. Prom was a week before graduation, a couple weeks after our last classes. Prom, for me, was a time to bury the hatchet with a lot of people. Have some fun with some girls who may not have been on good terms with me at other times. It was more than just another dance...</p>
<p>not going, going to disneyland instead.</p>
<p>Oh I heard Disneyland sucks, come to Disney World instead..it's a little better...at least the spaghetti is in that one little place and the place where you try the sodas from around the world.</p>
<p>i'd love to go to disneyworld if i could...but im stuck with disneyland which is at better than disney california adventure.</p>
<p>I can't stand either-they are both amusement parks. I will just go 50 miles west to Cedar Point if I must to get my fun.</p>
<p>hmm, hokegoalie, our prom is a week before we end classes and a lot of people don't go. so at my school it is just like a really expensive "homecoming" dance</p>
<p>my prom is today.
APs are this upcoming monday. i wonder what kind of idiot scheduled prom on this day. bastards.</p>
<p>My JProm was last night. I couldn't go because my Dad doesn't "believe in Proms."</p>
<p>I'm definitely going to Prom next year, though, regardless of what he says. I only conceded this year because of AP's.</p>
<p>What is there to not believe in??? They aren't like Santa Claus, they DO exist...</p>
<p>Not me.
I'm skipping school that day.</p>
