Prom....

So the day till prom seems to be getting closer and closer as I know it. And it’s pretty exciting and at the same time some what of a sad moment because prom is the ending dance to all the high school dances and it’s one of the biggest…for seniors at least for the fact that it is the last dance of our high school careers. So last weekend my mom and I finally had the time to get to go shopping for prom dresses, and I know im thinking what the heck am I doing shopping for a prom dress with probably a little less than a month till prom and I don’t have a dress…I was freaking out being like what if there aren’t any dresses left and what if they don’t have what I want and what I thought that I was going to get. So my mom and I, last Saturday went on a prom dress road trip. Our road trip and search started in the town of Boone. And why Boone, well there was a store or shop or whatever you want to call it there that carried the brand of dresses that I wanted to get. But just my luck the store was crappy compared what the website that I looked at, it seemed to be better, or I thought that I would find the dress that I would wear to prom there, but I was so wrong. We got there and the people that were working there just looked at us like what the heck are you doing here and why are you here, it was the most awkward moment of my like I thought. So I tried on some dresses but just has my luck would have it nothing. Then as we were leaving, it was that same awkward moment of the what the heck are you doing here. So after that disaster my mom thought that since we were so close to Des Moines, where I originally started my search for my prom dress and found nothing, we went back to that same store. I searched through the same dresses that I had gone through the week of spring break. As I was looking I found the same dress that I had tried on that same week and was excited because I really wanted that dress. But as I found that dress and found others that I could try on, one of the people that were working gave me a dress that I thought was the ugliest thing that I had ever seen in my life. It was a dress that I thought I would never ever in my life get…I tried it on and thank goodness I didn’t like it. But then she gives me another dress and of course I think it’s the ugliest dress ever, but then when I tried it on and look at through a mirror I thought oh my god I think I have found my dress….the person that was helping me forced me to try on this dress that I thought are you serious this thing is ugly, something that I would never try on or even were for that matter. But when I tried it on and looked at through a mirror I loved it. And after my mom had paid for I thought oh my god I just got a dress that I thought I would have never had gotten if this lady didn’t tell me to try it on. It was a poofy dress and it was also pink, two things that I thought I would never put together. A poofy dress which thought I would never get because I didn’t at all no exceptions would get a poofy dress because of the fact I didn’t want to look like Barbie. And the fact that it was pink was fine with me because the original dress that I tried on was pink and that was fine with me….but the fact that I had just gotten a poofy dress…I was in shock because that was one of the things that I didn’t want, but with the dress that I got it changed my mind.
