prom talk

Last period I had calculus, and because we did some review and some chilling, I was able to partially engage in a conversation about prom - since it’s the first day which prom tickets are on sale.Two guys sitting behind me were talking about who to ask to go to prom, and one of them was planning to ask a girl after school and was feeling butterflies in his stomach. I hope the asking part went well for him. The other one, on the other hand, was shocked hearing many girls already have a ‘date’ of some sort, for he was planning to ask the week before prom. “Oh hey.. um, do you wanna go to the prom with me? You know, the thing next Thursday?” While guys are anxiously worrying their heads off about asking girls to go to prom, girl are worrying their heads off getting their dream dresses. So don’t you think being a girl is so much easier because they get to sit there and wait for guys nervously ask them on a date, if you were a girl you would understand how much stress we go through about the shoes, dresses, jewellery, etc etc. =P

A kind advice for guys: if you wanna ask someone, ask quick; otherwise they’ll all be taken before you know. And speaking of asking a girl, please don’t be picky; every girl is beautiful in their own ways. Some information for girls: Mac has this free make-up service I think, if you are thinking about getting pro make-up done you can go there; but then again, go there and sign up quick before everybody crams in there.

Oh man, less than 2 months. And I think the music banquet is just a week before prom. Crazy.

I’m thinking about sketching my own dress and get somebody to make it for me.. if it’s not more expensive than the dresses on sale in the malls.

Whee, UofT entrance test tomorrow. After everything’s finished (ie. after the May concert), take me out?

  3. the place where i saw my “dream dress” is doing them for 300, pretty much any design you want. and they’ll help you figure out the fabric, etc. and if the design will look good on you. it’s run by a japanese designer, so pretty high-end, but for 300 i think it’s worth it.

    i’m still going to try to be a cheapass though.

    prom = not a big deal for me, as long as i have a good time with my friends.

  4. my mom said she saw some dresses at PMall and suggested that I should go check them out. perhaps I should. my plan is if I don’t get a decent dress I’ll just go to Chinatown buy a cheap Qi Pao for like 30 bucks. heh.

  5. I think my grandmother is coming from HK in May, and she’s a seamstress. She did my grade 8 grad dress, and I hope she can do my formal dress. Try finding friends and family to do it; then you can really splurge on fabric or makeup/accesories or both!

  7. We go through stress too.

    Finding a good suit for not-exhorbitant amounts is hard.
