Insight Prom 08
Today was pretty hectic;
I gave myself a lot of stuff to do before I got ready for Prom. It didn’t take
me that long to get ready, maybe just an hour or two. I painted my nails pink
to match my dress. The dress I decided to go with was my goddess flowing one.
It is mocha colored and peach, it’s so cute. I wore it to homecoming last year
but I didn’t have many pictures from that event so technically I haven’t worn it before. I showed and
straightened my hair and whatnot. Cathy was supposed to come over but I had
everything pretty much under control anyways, so I didn’t mind.We left at around
2:30 and arrived in Sammamish at around 4:00 which was really early! I brought
a huge duffle bag with some extra clothes and things I’d need for emergencies,
like now. I got changed in the car into sweats and decided to go walking around
the park area. My family took pictures by the lake and I came across a couple
of totem poles and took pictures of those too. The park was massive! I didn’t
walk on all the trails and I really wanted to go running but I only brought my
flip flops.When we got back from
the lake and went to the rest rooms near the parking lot, when I was done I
noticed that there was a guy in a white car that kept starring at me. I wasn’t
sure if he was my friend or not but after a while he got out and said J-Anne? That’s
when I recognized him, it was my buddy Calvin! Since we both arrived early we
just talked pretty much for two or more hours about random stuff. I was really surprised
to see him because he moved to California. He came up here to visit his
girlfriend and visit all his old friends.Alex was caught up in
traffic so it took him a while to show up but it was alright because I was
talking to Calvin the whole time. When he showed up it was kind of awkward
because instead getting white roses that we both agreed on he got me a white
daisy. The corsage had a stretchy band instead of a ribbon and it didn’t fit my
very skinny wrist so I pulled it up to my arm right above my elbow.After eating some of
the finger foods we danced. It was kind of awkward the way his danced but he
said I was the one that was off beat which is so not true! He also has some
strange taste in music, really strange and he was serious and tried to request
Octopus Garden by the Beatles, which isn’t a song you can’t really dance to.
The music selection at the dance was alright, it was mostly bad the most time
but they did play some good songs. My favorite song they played was Shake it by Metro Station!On the slow dances we
danced really close but that was because he was tall pretty much, but he was
also pulling me closer to him. Then he pulled away because I am currently with
Jerry dear so he pulled away a couple of times.Kristen came at last second;
we took pictures, talked and messed around. I had a staring contest with Alex,
Kristen and Calvin. It was pretty spontaneous and fun, over all a wonderful
night.
