What exactly is a "prom"? I know it's another American thing, like spelling bees, and being too lazy to carry all of your books at one time.

No we have them in England too Aceedwin. You'll more than likely have one. It's just a dance like ontels said. We had a buffet (although the food was awful) and a disco. big_smile It was so fun, I loved it!

Aceedwin · Jun 25, 2009 5:03 PM

There's a sixth form ball where I am. I suppose that's the same. It has food, dancing, short skirts, flowery hats, and general weariness for the rest of the school.
That said, it's better than what happens when the fifth form leave. They're let loose without rules, so there's egging, water balloons, stink bombs (that doesn't feel nice on the tongue), and, this year, we had raw fish. Who knows what they were going to do with it...

Heh. One guy showed up completely plastered. He didn't half look stupid. I didn't see the point - it would just ruin the evening. Plus he wouldn't have remembered it anyway, so what a waste of time showing up. :-|

Spyro Master · Jun 25, 2009 9:01 PM

lol what an idiot, i wont do that though then

Nightfall · Jun 25, 2009 9:36 PM

Good for you! wink We had champaign in the limo but I didn't like the taste. I had some to be polite though. It gave me a headache and stomach pains. sad I only had half a glass! big_smile

It's never really proms themselves that are the problem in America. It's the after-prom... when people head out to beach houses and drink themselves into drunken stupors. I literally watched some of my friends pass out from drinking. =_="

bmah · Jun 26, 2009 5:40 AM

Hehe, my family and I are going to my sister's grad dinner tomorrow, and after that she's off to her friend's house to do exactly what Crump here has already said. She'll be in bed for a long time on Saturday, hoho...

Spyro Master · Jun 26, 2009 10:01 AM

I forgot about the after prom party, that should be a laugh then, ive just asked around and there is one, although its tipping it down at the moment hmm

Nightfall · Jun 26, 2009 11:12 AM

Many of my friends had prom parties afterwards that went into all hours of the night. They didn't interest me because;

1. I don't like alcohol.
2. It was 11pm and I'd been to school that day and was already shattered after the disco. :-P

Just the prom was enough for me and it was nice. smile

Phoenix_Flyer · Jun 26, 2009 11:57 AM

My prom was ages ago now, it didn't actually rain for me, though it wasn't exactly all sunshine and flowers....
I had a really nice dress that was royal blue and gradually changed to ocean blue before going back again; I loved it! big_smile
We weren't allowed alcohol at ours, full stop. Though, as with you Saphira, there was champagne in our limo. I didn't go to any parties afterwards, the prom didn't finished until gone midnight.... But it was fun though! Well worth it in my opinion and I hate parties and things like that! XD

Nightfall · Jun 26, 2009 12:07 PM

We weren't allowed alcohol at the actual prom, but my friend who organised the limo ordered the champaign for us to drink on the way. Sadly we couldn't take a long limo journey because one of my friends was VERY late, so we were running late too and we had to go straight there. So we only had about 10 minutes in the limo. sad

@ Phoenix_Flyer: Your dress sounds amazing! big_smile Mine was black and up to my knees. I got it from Asos.

Phoenix_Flyer · Jun 26, 2009 12:28 PM

Lol, thanks. Mine was right down to the floor. If its any consolation though, I didn't get much more time in my limo than you either.

Spyro Master · Jun 27, 2009 9:19 AM

I got about 30mins in the limo LD it was brilliant with being in it with my mates, just mucking about inside like pushing into each other when it stopped, and also me and my friend shouting joking insults to one another form across the limo, she started it anyway tongue lol but the other cars were brillaint, the one i was in was a stretched landrover, there were those mobilkity scooters, a big rig truck, Porche 911, Rolls rocye phantom, double decker bus, camper van, there were loads of vehicles big_smile I didnt dance much however as i caught a stomach bug 2 days ago so i wasnt feeling at my best, but i was still dancing a bit sometimes, but it was mostly talking to my friends about memories and other stuff great night.

Nightfall · Jun 27, 2009 12:35 PM

Oh I'm glad you had a nice time! big_smile You'll always remember it and that's the best part.

Spyro Master · Jun 27, 2009 4:13 PM

yep big_smile , ive got another party to go to in the year with 3 of my friends who were at the prom so i wont loose contact with them just yet

Zekira Drake · Jun 28, 2009 1:59 AM

Hello SpyroForum. Just came to check out what's happening on this side of my fandom.

It's been a while -- don't see much familiar names from this favorite topic of mine, heh...

Well, kind of more inactive now that college is up lol. But whatever, at least it's good to know this site's still not giving up in its glory, ahahaha.

She came back yesterday night at 2:00am (next morning really), went to the bathroom and had a nice vomit...
