Prom 2K14

     Goodness do I love the smell of hairspray and makeup. However, I did not go to a prom this year. I still loved seeing all the pictures of everyone dressed up, looking their best, with huge smiles across their face! You can just tell how happy all of them are and I love it! I had a few friends that went to prom so I got to see the process of getting ready as well. They all looked absolutely gorgeous!

     Generally, there is a drill everyone follows when it comes to school dances. Prom being one of them with a special drill. It tends to start with pictures as someone's house so the parents can capture the moment of their daughters and sons getting flowers put on their wrist or tux. Then the kids finally get a chance at freedom! They get to venture off to dinner before the dance. That's when things start to unwind. Then there is the big part. The actual dance. This is where formal and nasty combine. After that, they get to go to post prom if they so desire. This tends to be where the fun and games begin. But what kind?

     Well, recently it seems that more and more kids are trying to get someone of the legal age to buy them alcohol. Apparently it just makes everything so much more fun. That's just the start. Some kids also get into drugs. With all the entertaining things there, you wouldn't think that kids would need the extra stuff to get them to have fun. Yet it still happens. Keep in mind that this isn't all kids. Some are perfectly happy with what they are provided with.

     When you are in a younger grade and you get asked to prom, there is another thing you have to worry about. What is the other person expecting? I know this sounds cliche and judgmental, but prom night tends to be known for one key thing in high school boys' minds. Sex. You need to keep this in mind when you think about going. It is not something you can just blow off. Yet again, this is just another possibility, it could never happen to you.
