Let's discuss that I want to go back to prom. My brother's prom is coming up, and it's that time of year again, when facebook is perpetually bombarding me with photos of high-school girls donning fake tans, curly up-dos, and dresses that are far too slutty for anyone but cheap strippers. And I am sick...because I want to go back to prom, as it was SUPER fun. Honestly, I thought the pre-prom pictures were always the best. It was like being a princess, where you really couldn't look unphotogenic because you were dressed to the nines! And if your dress didn't come off the "little hookers" line, it was very elegant. Soon, I'm going to take pictures of my brother and his date, and be rather jealous of all the fun they're going to have.
I think it really goes back to me feeling old. Let's discuss that I'm not old, but I feel it when I see high school-ers going to prom. Having gone to two myself, I loved wearing the dress and getting all dolled up! Sadly, those prom days are probably the only two days I'll ever wear such a fancy dress that I chose myself (unless I get married, but even then the color of the dress is pretty standard). So let's celebrate the magic of prom!!
Here are some awkward prom pics from the 90s!
