yep..
this post is too late because this is about the prom.
i know, i know...but can you blame me? my modem broke down and i can't surf the net for 5 days!
anyway...
the prom was fantastic...it was not what I expected at all.
the atmosphere was great in Gazebo Royale. I really loved the big stars and the christmas lights that hung from the ceiling...it gave a really nice effect on the place (especially to me...i really love stars!). The hall was quite roomy..and it was enough to accomodate the junior and the senior population. everyone was at their best...and everyone changed their appearance. it wasn't your typical gathering.
actually, I'm laughing now because i just thought of the gown I wore. my sister told me that i look like a dancer in it..and all i needed was a bard (to a ragnarok addict, this statement would not be a mystery.) to complete my look. my dad laughed at me because i was wobbling on my high heels. plus the make up that made me look like a japanese kabuki mask and a geisha according to my younger brother. great family support.
anyway...the top of my gown was green..and the skirt was maroon..but turned green when I moved. They called it "two-toned" fabric. Mr. Lorenzo even said that my gown was scandalous (why? hehehe..secret...) but nice...and i took that as a complement. thanks, sir! :)
the dinner was great...the food was good..unfortunately..my stomach wasn't that conditioned that night to take in food to its content. I don't know...i just didn't eat much even though the food was good. what i didn't like was the sauce for the fish fillet. i think that was lemon butter sauce...but it didn't taste like it. I think they exaggerated the lemon part ...you get the idea. even though mrs. arrieta told us to finish everything we got on our plates...I disobeyed her. I'd rather not finish the food than throw up while I danced.
the dance?..
it was the most anticipated part of the prom...
and to be quite honest..I was really excited about it...though I was a bit nervous. It was the first time ever in my life that i will dance in a gathering...because in other gatherings I attended, I ate while everybody else was dancing (glutton! hehehe...). some of my former classmates danced with me and some curie 3 people too..and some others. some people who promised to dance with me didn't....some didn't find me because the crowd was too thick..and some...well...i think thay forgot that they promised in the first place. anyway..no harm done! :P
the prom was supposed to end at 12 in the morning, but they extended it to 1 am. but unfortunately, some parents disagreed, so they stuck to the original plan. After some pictures were taken with me and my former class (curie 2), we got our souvenirs (pink pillows for girls and blue pillows for boys which says "QCSHS JS promenade 2005") and headed towards the exit. my dad and uncle picked grace, erica, bricci and kuya patrick up and brought us home about 12:30 in the morning. erica, grace, bricci and I were screaming and complaining of feet pains because of our heels...and my dad actually predicted this. well..it was my first time wearing high and thin heels for almost 7 hours...can you blame me?
I was really tired when I got home. I washed my face, brushed my teeth and immediately went upstairs to my bedroom. after i changed my clothes, I crashed into my bed. my eyes and my feet were screaming for rest....and I gave in.
the next morning...when I opened my eyes..i thought everything was just a dream. but my prom dress draped on the dresser told me otherwise. weird huh? really...
honestly..
i really thought the whole prom was just a dream.
