Entry: Who will you take? Friday, September 16, 2005



Derek's MSN nick recently intrigued my attention. I asked him if his school was having a prom soon, and he said yes. Apparently my cousin is not sure whether he should ask someone to go, since he's all shy and all*normal derek*. I told him to bring that girl to the prom or I'd smack him upside down the next time I came down to Malacca.

Wow, time sure does fly. It seems like only yesterday that he and I were no more than 5 years old and playing "Dogs", pretending to be imaginary canines, and going around barking. And in just a split second, we're about to reach adulthood, and have to face problems like this:

GETTING A PROM DATE

Some of you are now probably thinking of which girl or guy to ask to the prom as you read this, while a majority of you probably already have someone in mind. Despite being in only Form 4, I've already started worrying about attending the Prom dateless and sitting at a corner by myself while my friends have a partner each. Oh the sheer horror! T^T

I've had the thought of asking Amanda in mind since form 2, but somehow I know that she'd go with someone else, cutting my chances down 75%. And now that she's gone to America, my chances are 0%. She wont even be around for the next prom, though she'll be back for awhile during June next year. So... I guess I might as well find someone i'm fascinated with at the moment, and try to become close friends with that person if I want to ask them out to the prom next year. Who's that person? Well... I've already got someone in mind, but I'm not telling =p

*previous attempts*

LAI: Any chance you'd go to the prom with me if Adrian can't make it?
Cass: Darling, I wouldn't go to the prom with you if you were the last man in the world.

Okay, so she didn't say that.

Cass: Sorry...but I'm pretty sure Adrian will go *eyes flare up with passion*.

And since I just discovered the two of them have been together for 2 months now, I guess scratch that.



I've gotta start being super nice to my target now. But here's the question:

A prom is one of the last chances among your friends to attend a formal event, dress up in your best clothes, hold that person you admire by the hand and walk along other couples. Girls get to flaunt all their beauty that night without being called a slut, and guys won't be considered LOA for dressing up in a tuxedo. Who will YOU share that night with?

amelia: I've told people a billion times. I've no feelings for khe chun. she's just cute, that's it. I told her that before...zz the whole class thinks this way?

imran: I'd hate to go to a prom alone, and yes, you're right, not having a date basically makes it all just silly to attend.

xiao: Ah, i'll have to make sure of it then. *plots*

there really isnt a point in going to prom if youre not curious about that whole so called high school social ritual and/or are dateless...to me..if ure none of the above ..you might as well go to a damn mamak or a cafe or the nearest Starbucks joint..because thats what Prom will be like if youre none of the above..really now...its expensive

nabilah: haha! I asked aaron this question today, "If nab wants to go to the prom with you, will you offer to apy the tickets for her?"

he replied, "Nah. I'm not into that kinda stuff."

which imran and I said, "poor nab"

Oh God, you don't have to worry about this now man!! My sis went to the prom date-less... even if she had a bf at that time. Her 'dates' were her best friends... That was real cool.

I think I'd be heading to the prom in a similiar way too... Coz Aaron's SO not going to the prom. Ech. Useless bum.

haha... yeah, unlike how it is in the west, prom is somewhat like sumbangsih. it doesnt really matter whether you get a date or not. you just hang out among the many others who didnt get a date as well, but i get your point.


prom night..... *sighs deeply*

Being dateless is popular these days. It's better to go there dateless and meet all the fantastic, gorgeous, hot girls/guys than to bring a date and only spend your time with him/her, and not have a change to ogle at other *omg* hot people.

Then again, it's nicer to be with the person you like/love/fancy/admire ^^

Yeah, I'm rubbing it in.

Don't worry, if I'm somehow dateless I'll go with you *big goo-goo eyes*

*squeels like a 3-year-old-girl and ties up pony tails to next year's prom* xD
