I really love the idea of prom but it always ends up being super weird. I wish that school dances weren’t so awkward. I think it is us that make it awkward because if we all just decided that we were going to have fun and do things together then it wouldn’t be. Unfortunately because we don’t have the social skills to get along with each other, getting ready is my favorite part. That’s why I like dress dinner so much. I like it because it’s an excuse to get ready and put work into myself.  I like to have something to look forward to and talk about leading up to it, but things like that are just never worth the hype.  Although I have that mindset I get my hopes up every time that it’s going to be different and try to make the most of it. So maybe this year will be different.
