My Senior Prom
So this year is my senior year. My whole life I anticipated going to my senior prom. Back freshman year I thought I would go with the boyfriend I would hope to have, a stunning red dress, and go to the shore after with him and some friends to drink. But this past weekend was prom night and none of that happened. When tickets for this year’s prom were on sale I didn’t have a boyfriend, money for a beach house, and I couldn’t find a red dress to save my life. Even thou I didn’t have anything I expected I got everything I wanted out of a perfect night. I ended up spending the day with my girlfriend, who was determined to make it the most memorable night of my high school life. Our prom night started with a car ride to friendly’s. On our way there I kept receiving texts from my friends that were going to prom. Getting these messages reminded me of much I really wanted to go to prom. So to keep my mind off of it I told her to play music I didn’t know so that way the lyrics wouldn’t make me cry. She knew something was bothering me but every time she asked me if I was ok it would only make the tears build up. When she put the car in park is when things really went downhill for me. I stepped out of the car without saying a word, when I turned around she looked right in my eyes and asked me what was wrong. At this point I couldn’t hold it in any longer, I began to cry and explain how I felt. I could tell this made her feel bad because she kept blaming herself for why I didn’t go. I quickly pulled myself to together so we could go inside. After I wonderful meal consisting of chicken strips and honey mustard we went back out to her jeep to think of what to do next. We figured mini golfing would be a good time, and we were right. Right as we walked in we were greeted by a border collie puppy and his owner. After we got what we needed we went out on the course. She was so bad at mini golf that we had to run to the bathroom by hole 10 because we were laughing so hard. It took us longer than we expected to finish the game because it seemed like we got worse and worse as we played. After we gave up trying to get a hole in one on the 18th hole we went inside to return our clubs and play with the dog. The man was nice enough to let the dog out from behind the fence so we could really get to play with it. For some reason the dog fell in love with my girlfriend and started showering her love. The dog was so ecstatic that it managed to push her to the floor. This is when I lost it, the dog peed. All. Over. Her. Stomach. Now when I tell you I lost it, I lost it. I was laughing so hard I couldn’t even tell the man what had happed. She thought it was so funny she couldn’t even be mad. I feel kinda bad for the guy thou because he felt bad. Luckily she always keeps extra clothes in her truck. After she changed we decided we wanted to watch The Raven but it was 8:30 and the movie didn’t start til 9:30. So what were we to do with an hour? Well we decided to waste our money on loafs of bread to feed geese. Now every other time we fed the geese we only had to run for our lives once or twice, but for some reason this time we found ourselves dodging cars to get away from these evil creatures. To defend ourselves we started throwing whole pieces of bred at the goose’s face so it would stop hissing. That’s right, the goose was HISSING at us. We ended up making it to the movies without being attacked by and rabid geese and the movie wasn’t as good as we hoped it would be. After that eventful evening we got back to my house for a sleepover. I ended up surprising her with a bottle of Jack Daniels (her favorite drink*) and a bottle of coke. At first she was mad because I spent my money on her but she quickly got over it when she realized I didn’t actually spend a fortune on it. We spent the rest of our night watching The Runaways and sipping on some jack and coke before finally falling asleep in each other’s arms.
