The dress issue

Add comment April 22nd, 2008

I wonder if anyone else is having as much trouble with their prom dress as I am. My mom called the place that I got my dress last night and the woman basically said they didn’t know where it was. Now she is on the phone with her and she’s saying that it won’t come in until next week. Thats two weeks before prom. There is no way I’m going to be able to get it fitted on time. I’m so angry with that place right now. But on a lighter note I’m excited that prom is only three weeks away!

Does size matter?

Big Group?  Or small group? Usually teens like to go with all of their friends to prom, but should there be a limit to the group size? I think that keeping the group smaller keeps everybody closer to have a better time than to have a large group and trying to make sure that everyone is happy and no one is getting the feeling of being left out. I thought about this after my date told me that we would be going with atleast 13 people. “Woah!” Maybe I’m wrong, but i think that groups should be of at most six or seven. Just my ideas though!
