Prom:
OH MY GOD PROM WAS AMAZING!!! The only bad part about prom was the fact that my dress had a train thing on it and I had to keep holding that up so that people wouldn't step on it! AND the fact that my shoes made the top of my feet swollen... Otherwise, I had a blast. Adam was my date, and he was awsome! Thanks so much for coming with me Adam and I hope you had as much fun as I did!! Prom this year was at Newport Aquarium... that was AMAZING!!! We got to go walk through a lot of the exhibits, which made it all the more magical. We went in, and I saw Mrs. Vernon again! I didn't get to see her the last day of school because my stupid english class were awful to her the day before, and she was still really sad from her dad's death that she ended up leaving the room and crying... but I was happy to see her! And I managed to get a picture with her too! ... I just realized I could have gotten a picture with Mr. Zaya too... oh well. I got a lot of pictures too! Well, anyways, so we walked in, and found our tables, and then walked around a bit. Then everyone sat down, and they released people to get food a table at a time. After everyone was done, there was time to wander around and look at the exhibits, and that was fun. Ryan and I went to find ketika's table, but they had left, so we walked around and took some pictures of the exhibits... (there was this really cute bird that I saw... It was like cute, but it looked mean, so I wanted to squeeze it, but I was afraid to... but then I lost my date! But we found him, and caitlin. And they had grabbed our stuff for us, which is good. Oh, and I also saw my summer diving coach Jenny there! She works at Newport, so that was awsome! The dancing was fun, except we couldn't leave the area... that kinda sucked, because there wasn't much room. But it was in the cafeteria, so we were right next to the shark petting exhibit. I saw Mr. Zaya there. He said he definatly had to try that, and he did. He said the shark felt like sand paper... I wasn't about to try, haha. Anyways, they had dessert there too, and they played a lot of fun songs! I was excited about that. I saw Mr. Zaya and Mrs. Vernon dance too! I didn't know Mr. Zaya could breakdance, haha. But that was fun. Adam and I got some pictures of Downtown Cincy too, so that was fun. We were also going to see some of his friends that were at newport to see a movie, but their movie started sooner than they thought, so we never saw them. So we left and went to caitlins to get ready for afterprom. But I was really tired, and my feet hurt, so I had no idea how I was going to make it through afterprom...

After Prom:
AHH!!! IT WAS SOOOOO COOL!!!! Afterprom is always held at our high school, and the parents (mom's) are in charge of it. They basically decorate the place and it really doesn't even look like the school! The main theme this year was Disney, so they had a lot of Disney theme's all over the place. When you first walk in, you see a painting of the Cinderella castle behind the checkin desk, and if you walk straight forwards, they had a Pocahontas set up, with life size cut paintings of the characters! Then, The Hallway had a 101 Dalmations theme, where they had the senior's school pictures posted on dog bone things on the wall. The bathrooms were AWSOME!!! I think the boys bathroom had a tarzan theme or something, and the urinals were gorilla's, so you were peeing in the gorillas... it was pretty akward, according to Adam and Ryan. The girls bathroom had a Cinderella theme, and around the mirrors, were pictures of the senior girls, but they were their junior year pictures this time. The massage thing was booked up really fast, so I didn't get one this year. Oh well. THEY HAD A CHOCOLATE FOUNTAIN!!! That was sooooo awsome! AHH!!! They also did yoga and lip treatments.. whatever that was. The cafeteria had a casino again, which was awsome, and the prizes posted and stuff, and it also had free food! I love that part. Anyways, there was also video game rooms set up, one theme being Alice in Wonderland and the other being Toy Story/Winny the Pooh. They played that Herbie movie with Lindsey Lohan and Pirates of the Carribean in two different rooms, I didn't watch either. They also had a palm reader and a tarrot card reader... that was cool. I got my palm read but I didn't get to do the cards. Anyways, walking down further, there was karaoke, and that was kinda funny. They also played the movie Fantaisia. I still can't believe Ryan and Adam haven't seen that movie!!! But the hallway was split into sections, and once section had a whole Narnia set up, complete with fake snow and all! It was amazing! At the end of the hall was the tattoo station, where you could put on fake tattoos... that was pretty popular. And then in the gym, it was... wow. You know those blown up things at fairs, that little kids can jump it? Well, they had a lot of those types of things: obsticle course, a mountain thing you can climb, a slide, a boxing arena thing, and this thing where you are attached to a bungee cord, and you run as far as you can, then get thrown back, but you try to stick this ball with velcrow on it to the middle, then they move it back like three feet, and you have to try and get it. It's hard to explain but it's a lot of fun... well, except for the fact that Kate broke a nail and it was bleeding... eww... it reminded me of the time when half of my nail got ripped off by a weight machine... but that was a long time ago... ANYWAYS... There was also a lazer tag thing and one of those basketball games, the kind you would find at like Chucky Cheezes... where you shoot as many baskets as you can in a limited time... anyways. I did the obsticle course a lot, the slide once, and the bungee cord thing once. Kate and I WERE going to beat each other up, but then she broke that nail... so she couldn't. I did the mountain climbing thing last year, and I barely made it to the top. It's A LOT harder than it looks. Everyone stays because we win awsome prizes at the end. I ended up winning 4 tickets to a reds game!!!!

Now, the best part about this entire night, was that (this really is only funny if you know me in person) I forgot to take my medicine... So that was my night! If you've actually read this far, I'm VERY surprised, but I thank you for reading through my ramblings... lol.
