Once Upon A Time, "Prom Night" Met "Friday the 13th" and this is their Baby

Dearest Darling Readers,
Am I one of the only ones who managed to find decently sized heels that didn't permanently maim my feet? I am also the only girl who was able to pin on a bouttonniere without 5 tries/stabbing my boyfriend/help from half a village! Success! SO PROUD!

So, Bimbo basically gave you a basic overview of last night's itinerary, so I won't bother going through that again since it was probably pretty boring for most of you the first time.

Well, I'll tell you about my getting ready process. Woke up at 6am for school. Showered...shampooed and conditioned. Came home from school. Talked to Mickey until 5:15. Brushed hair. Pinned bangs on top of head. Put on dress. Put on chapstick. Out the door. I even showed up at Tea's house wearing my All Stars instead of my heels. But everyone else made me change my shoes. Damn.
It's not like I don't like looking nice, I just don't think that I need to put on lots of make up or spend hours on my hair to look nice. I mean, I'm not really naturally pretty like a lot of my friends are, but I like to look like me. I don't like to change things about how I look just so that I look prettier to someone else. I dunno, maybe my head's not screwed on straight. After all, all of the other girls looked absolutely GORGEOUS!

Anyway, here are my top 10 things that happened on prom night:

10. Mickey saw my dad for the first time after a very awkward incident in which my dad caught me hanging out with Mickey when I wasn't exactly supposed to be...

9. One of our friends, Jane, literally looked AMAZING. Now she's usually really pretty, but last night, I think she was the most beautiful out of all of us (no offense to the other girls--we all looked goooooood, but come on, Jane was gorgeous). Her dress made me so jealous and she just looked so pretty!

8. Bimbo stabbed her boyfriend, Kurt Vonnegut, whilst attempting to pin on his bouttonniere...and then Kurt's dad had to pin it on :-P

7. Dancing with Freak. I mean, DAYUM. Haha I don't even remember why we were doing this, but I think we were trying to show all of the [awkward] guys in our group how you're supposed to dance with a girl, and, well, it was interesting. Haha love you, Freak!

6. Talking to the teachers. Okay, I know, this sounds lame--chatting it up with the teacher chaperones at prom? Lame? No, fun fun fun! Haha Mickey and I encountered his math teacher, who I had last year, who I think we mildly surprised to see us together. We also ran into his history teacher who had, earlier that day, given him a lesson on how to act towards his date during prom, and what to say to his date's father. Let's just say that Mickey didn't take very much of his teacher's advice...

5. Mickey attempting to be chivalrous. Yelled at me for pulling out my own chair and not letting him do it. Does that cancel out or something?

4. Dancing...in general. Not only was dancing with Mickey just awesome, but Alexa and Cunningham were SO cute! And so were Freak and [insert name here] aka THE TWIN. Although, THE TWIN could use some work on his moves :-P

3. Freak and THE TWIN kissing on the dance floor! Haha for basically the last week or so, after I finally got THE TWIN to admit that he likes Freak, I have been telling him to kiss her like every time they are together. And he finally did it! Ah! I don't know if I've ever been so proud in my life! I am so happy for them! I love them both so much! (Oh and by the way, THE TWIN was originally Geek's date--just as friends, of course--but pretty much EVERYONE ON THE FACE OF THE EARTH knew that Freak and THE TWIN liked each other, so Geek graciously gave up her date...though, then Geek got Jane as her date in this trade off, and like I said, Jane was GORGEOUS, so I think Geek got the better end of the deal!)

2. Being with Mickey all night! Haha there were a few times where I just forgot that there were 500 other people there and just started kissing him...at which point I would then be pelted with lemon heads by Bimbo :-P

1. Oh, number one. Well, this is a pretty easy one for me. At the end of the night, after the guys had left Tea's house, I sent Mickey a text message telling him that I "kinda love him" and then 20 anxiety-stricken minutes later, I got the best phone call of my life! I love you, Mickey. You're the best!

So, that was my prom night. I hope all of you who had proms had nights as wonderful as I did!
