So guys, Prom was just incredible! I can't believe that nothing went wrong. I know that's that sounds really pessimistic, but for months before, things kept going wroung or screwing up. I was expecting something horrible to happen and to be pissed off or upset all night because of it and then not to get over it. But that did happen and I'm elated. Everything was perfect.
I spent the whole day gettting ready. I got up a million times from like 7 to 11 because I couldn't fall back asleep. Then I got online and finilized arrangements (aka ordered people around like Hitler-- However, I do have to say that even Steven, my biggest complainer, said that I did good, so =) ) Then after all that, I finally got into the shower to shave around 12:15. Threw on some clothes, sans makeup and went to my hair appointment.
I got to my hair appointment like 5 minutes late (because of my mom of course) and someone else was in the chair and she made me wait, which I was kindda annoyed and even more so later (you'll see). So I waited a bit and thenshe took me and gotto work. Her hands turned ed. Ithrt like hell. Icouldn't reaht, hink or se She ad to loosen it a bit. A the endof he day, though, it looked gorgeous.
Went to my makeup appointment. The first thing anyone said to me was "You're 10 minutes late, which means that you only have 20 minutes for makeup." I wanted to cry. I had no idea that it was only 1/2 hour because they normalyl do my makeup forlike 45 minutes to an hour. I was so upset. But the girl who took me said she didn't care and wouldn't rush me. I showed her my pictures and explained what I wanted and she gotto work. They even put false lashes on me. Those were annoying and felt funny bt they looked so god it was totally woth it. So as I was finishing and picking out stuff to buy, Coley and Sharri came up behind me. That was nice to see them. My mom showed up (finally) and we paid and ran out.
Went home. Got dressed. Put om accessories. My grandma and aunt showed up. They took pictures. My dad got hom from droppnig off Jon and Jesse (finally). Then he took a whole roll of film of me. Got in the car. Went to Chuck's. He looked gorgeous. My dad took a whole roll of film of us together. Other people started showing up. More pictures. Erika and Jon were insanely late. (but I <3 them anyway) Then when they showed we took group shots. May I jsut say how our parents are retarted, disobediant, and selfish. I just don't understand why none of them could TAKE FREAKING TURNS1 I know we're all going to have a million pictures with us all looking in a million different directions. le sigh. IT's ok though b/c hopefully each of us will have a few good ones and we can share.
Got in limo. Everyone made fun of my dad and the weird getting into the limo pictures, but they came out so so good. <3 When we got to prom it was windy as hell. Hair + lipgloss = HORRIBLE COMBINATION!! The place was beautiful. I was really happy. Chuck and I got professional pictures done. That was fun. Then we went in, mingled, danced, talked, wandered. We saw so many people, everyone looked amazing. Dancing with Chuck much more than I expected too. He never likes to dance, but I'm glad he did anyway. <3 IT was fun. Danced with Rachel once too. That was crazy, as usual, but fun. The only way it could have been better if it wasnt't so freaking hot!
When we started to get bored we all pild back in the limo (after taking our token glasses, which were beautiful). We all get back to the hotel. Kaylyn & Co. got out with us but were bored after like 5 mintures so they left rather quickly. We all gushed over the roses. The girlies took pictures on the bed with them. We all stripped. Erika and Jon madea snack run. We played PiNCTionary, which was crazy fun. Corn x 100! hehe. Steven made werid calls. We stayed up forever and concked out around 3:45! (mind you I was setting my alarm for 6:45!!)
I got up, got dressed, went to to STUPID thing, almost died. Met up with the gang at Denney's. Pigged out. Got full. Went home. Slept/wandered. Hung out w/ Em and Erika that night. I was dead tired and apparently fell asleep. lol. But it was so fun anyway. I missed my girlies. Oh! And Saturday night I got my pictures developed! Wanna see? (and I apologize for there being so many of me & chuck, but I'm sending family here to see them too so deal with it!)

This one Emily said that she could decide if I looked intense or pissed off. Chuck said, "Intense--I KNOW your pissed off face." I thought that was funny.
