Having missed my junior prom last year, I'm even more psyched for my upcoming senior prom (the enthusiasm just rolls over...like unused minutes!). One thing to note is that within my group of friends, the guys are either super wimpy or plain don't care, so the girls did all the asking. For a little week-long period, it was a struggle to narrow down my list of potential prom dates, but fate seemed to narrow it down pretty well for me! By the end, the number of single, nice guys was as low as a rap star's pants and I had to jump on it or die.
Lucky for me, I rushed to it and asked my best guy friend who quickly agreed and said not only had he been planning on asking me too, he had even turned down some of the other girls that had asked him. -_- Yeah, so basically, all of the jumping on it was completely useless because I had a prom date the whole time and didn't know it. Regardless, I'm excited that he's taking me. He's the one guy friend that I truly trust and we always have a blast when we're together. He's pretty much the male version of me.
Last weekend, I went out and got my prom dress, which I am totally in love with. Once in a while, I start to take off the plastic bag over it to marvel in its beauty some more, but then quickly put the cover back on so as not to get it dirty before the big night. Here's a few pics of the purple version of it. I actually bought the fuchsia one because that's all they had in the store.
Reasons Why I Bought This Dress
- It's freaking gorgeous!
- I actually look SKINNY in it.
- Fuchsia is a flattering color for my skin tone.
- Spandex = Can hide some extra poundage
- The beading is incredible. You totally have to see it in person.
- The back of it is stunning and hot.
- As far as prom dresses go, it was relatively cheap.
Can you see now why I am EXCITED?!? I've discovered that I'm incapable of talking about anything other than prom right now. I pity my friends, those poor poor people. They never stood a chance.
