Word Association: Week 68
From Luna Nina
Now, I know that I cheated on Prom and Diploma, cause those are two words--but it's honestly what popped into my mind: I didn't go to prom, and I didn't go to my college graduation.
In the former case, I just thought that I was too cool to go and dance in a room decorated with toilet paper, for godsake, so my date and I stayed home and watched movies and then crashed the after-prom, a much swankier event--(a) held at a country club, with the toilet paper in the bathrooms rather than hanging from the ceiling, and (b) no prom dress required. I wore a pair of khaki linen capris and a cream and olive striped sleeveless sweater.
Re: graduation, there were just too. many. people. I went to a big school--I would have been graduating with literally thousands of people. It didn't seem like I wanted to end my education feeling like a piece of cattle. So I went and saw some of my friends graduate at a small local school (the one that I attended for a year and a half, actually, before I left for the BIG SCHOOL), and then I drove over to my school (only 20 minutes away) and hung out till they were ready to hand out the diplomas. They don't do that at the ceremony, see, making the ceremony further useless. I was first in line for the diploma, though.
I don't remember what I wore that day, but I do remember that my car blew a headgasket on the way home and had to call my ex- to come rescue me. Talk about an uncomfortable car ride!
