NICOLE'S PROM
Right then. I just read over my prom post from last year, and it sucked. This one will probably suck too.. but in a more detailed and memorable way hopefully. OK then.
5:30 (ish)
Showed an hour late to Ari's.. because last minute hair and make up is the only way to role. Took a lot of pictures. Dan Sherer was mean to my mommy (rude, haughty, stuck up, insulting were the words she used.. and its my mom!!). Um.. everyone looked wonderful. Got into the limo then went to school around
6:30 ish
Walked around, shmoozed, saw how dressed up everyone else was. Most amusing thing was seeing Lynn try to get everyones attention by yelling as loud as she could, and no one listening. She got it eventually though.. and so the race (That I called we would win) BEGAN!
I thought our method of figuring out the first clue was pretty awesome (we had unscrambles ashby ave)
- Hey rebecca the old cross country coach lives around ashby
- ya I've been there a couple times.. I think Rob Duval lives around there too..
-ROD DUVAL??? THATS IT!!!!!
So we ventured to Rob's.. had to do a little dance make a little love.. then got our next clue which Ab got right away (damn theater/spanish speaking people) and we headed off to the theater which 'Hair' was in (Scavanger hunt a little biased perhaps?)
At the theater, we had to pass this cushioned ball around using only our necks. It was interesting. We just passed it around when the guy watching us wasn't looking. Pheobe said randomly that she had a feeling our prom was in Santa Monica. We told her to hush :).
The next clue led us to Starbucks where we played blackjack for the next clue. We won after like 2 seconds, it was kinda awesome (especially since I didn't do anything)
Then we got this reeeaalllyyy crazy math clue. But that's why smart people exist. Bill helped us out.. which was super awesome. And we figured out this phone number and listened to an answering machine which led us to Vidiots. These stupid juniors with Andrew Ebstein leading the way followed us there, but then got screwed because you had to ask for a certain movie. HAHAHA.
On the way to Santa Monica, we saw these signs at some random hotel called the Double Tree about another prom going on. We were all like haha thats funny. Isn't it ironic, don't ya think?
Next clue led us right there (9:00 ish??)
And that was prom. Made me think of Lewis and Clark and Connecticut College interviews. Yeeck.
Prom set up in one word: cheeseball. Kinda like you'd imagine in movies. Neon sign reading "WINDWARD PROM" and then these big ballons with Christmas lights spelling out 2004. Then a dance floor in the middle, surrounded by a bunch of tables. Didn;t sit with my limo, but it was awesoem cuz I got to sit next to some very cool a holes that I let hang out with me sometimes. :P
Dancing at Prom was fab.. food at prom was egh.. standing in line to take pictures at prom friggan SUCKED.. and there was some stupid drama that went down in the beginning to. It got cleared up though, and I decided I wasn't going to allow stupid people to piss me off. And that was that.
10:30
Thought I was left by my crew but didn't. Then together we all went back to Ari's. Thought I lost my bag, but then I didn't. Thought I was gonna miss Sareena, but then I didn't.
Hung out there for awhile, shmoozed and hung out and changed. Some interesting memories to be had, including skipping down the street and nothing being more awesome. Limo ride over there was fun. Got showered in some spittle, which was not so fun, although I was laughing too hard to really notice.
12 ish
Arrived at at after prom.
12:20 (??)
Left after prom
2 ish
Limo ride back to Ari's ??
3:30 (ish)??
Crashed hardcore on a wood floor with no sleeping bag. It was so comfortable I couldn't contain myself. Remember constant beeping sound throughout the night which I wanted to murder. I also could have sworn the floor was spinning around beneath my head. Which It was.
Woke up way too early sharing a sleeping bag with Charles :)
.. went home.. slept all the live long day. Mmmm.
Overall recap: Good times.
Things that make me sad:
- I didn't see Hannah at after prom
- We didn't win the damn scavenger hunt. I WANT MY PRIZE!
- That beanie wasn't there for enough of the night.
- I can't speak German.
- That my name is not Shaft.
- I'm still awake.
So with all that, I bid goodnight and farewell Windward Senior Prom of (insert big brightly illuminated balloons here)
