And my dad wouldn't let me go!!<BR/><BR/>My junior year I went with a guy who seemed cute but later turned out to be a psycho. As in followed people around school and took surreptitious photos of them and printed an angry manifesto which he put into everyone's mailbox at school.<BR/><BR/>My senior year I went with the star basketball player at school. Junior guy. Totally cool, but he got drunk and disappeared, and I went home with some friends and never even got to say good night.teahousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06222848511993932548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18879154.post-15742750510867482232008-05-15T16:17:00.000-04:002008-05-15T16:17:00.000-04:00Your sister is beautiful!

It really wasn't very fun at all. My senior prom date was- get this- my husband. We got married three years after I graduated high school. How lame am I? That one wasn't very fune either, but we weren't actually there for more than one dance.. I still remember the song though.Mrs. S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03761888051349398776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18879154.post-13844036157960098942008-05-14T12:05:00.000-04:002008-05-14T12:05:00.000-04:00Oh my,a great question.

I went my junior year (we only had senior year prom) with a friend and that was fun and cool.<BR/><BR/>My senior year I was dating, pretty seriously, a guy who went to a nearby school. We went to his prom and had a blast. My prom, at my school, was on the same day as his high school graduation. One of my best guy friends asked me to go with him to our prom. I told my then boyfriend about this and he FLIPPED OUT. He told me I couldn't go, blah blah, starting making all of these demands, which I promptly ignored. I told then boyfriend I was going to spend that night with my sister who was coming in town and I went to my prom with the guy friend. We had a great time.Stellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16195966767311524232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18879154.post-24173926489787404022008-05-13T18:06:00.000-04:002008-05-13T18:06:00.000-04:00I didn't go to my prom, just hung out with some fr...I didn't go to my prom, just hung out with some friends that night.

(rolls the eyes) As juniors, my class took a poll to see who would show up for prom if there was one. Less than five seniors were going to show and most of the ones that would attend were sophomores. We decided not to put on a prom for the sophomore class.<BR/><BR/>The following year, the former sophomore class was STILL pissed off at my class, so they refused to put on a prom for us. So, no proms in my past.<BR/><BR/>I'm not sure exactly HOW many years proms were not held in our school, but it was because of MY class that it went prom-less as long as it did. And that, people, is the story of the class of '72. We really were a bunch of shits! :)cmkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17984250869194585666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18879154.post-91605794056265424502008-05-13T16:35:00.000-04:002008-05-13T16:35:00.000-04:00Awww - your 'lil sis is pretty!!

I think that she resembles you in the face.<BR/><BR/>Jr. year the dress was coral red, satin, strapless, tea length with a bow on the lower back and fitted skirt line. Looked like the dress Madonna wore in the Material Girl video. I loved it. At the time I was bleaching my hair blonde and I felt very glamorous and Marilyn Monroe.<BR/><BR/>Sr. year the dress was cobalt blue with black polka dots, tea length, spaghetti straps, flairy skirt with crinoline. I loved that one too. I would still wear both of those dresses and I still have them. They are crammed in a closet along with several fraternity/sorority formals and the two dresses I wore in the weddings I was in last fall. Yeah-Got way to many dresses.kimmykins13https://www.blogger.com/profile/03975995189429999303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18879154.post-86478230306435251222008-05-13T16:02:00.000-04:002008-05-13T16:02:00.000-04:00I went to two Proms.When I was in Gr 10 (sophmore ...I went to two Proms.<BR/><BR/>When I was in Gr 10 (sophmore in the US I guess?) my boyfriend was in gr 12 at a different high school and I went to his prom. We went with all his friends who I knew fairly well and had a good time. I loved my dress (it was a long sheath and shimmery-red with rhinestone details on the spaghetti straps and on the criss-crosses of the back.)<BR/><BR/>In grade 12, my long-term boyfriend and I had broken up about 3 weeks (maybe) before and so one of my really good friends (galen) and I went together. We were the two in our group who weren't dating someone else in the group so we'd been lumped together many times before. We got along great and had a blast. I was pretty glad I just got to hang with my friends instead of dealing with my ex-(who was occasionally an ass). My dress then was long, and pale green.
