UNEXPECTED ENJOYMENT


Back when I was still a junior, I was so excited about our JS prom. I was looking forward to it and I prepared for it big time. But now that I’m a senior, prom is nothing but a simple occasion for me.

Before the promenade, we practice so hard for the cotillion and honestly, it’s only the reason why I have to prepare myself for the prom. I’ve planned before that I’ll just wear a simple dress for the prom but since I’m in the cotillion, I have to rent a gown and thanks to Mrs. Parel, we were discounted. Then, February 13 had finally come and well you can see a lot of gorgeous girls wearing their beautiful gowns around the campus. Actually, the promenade walk was finished when I arrived. I walk straight in our classroom because I feel embarrassed when people look at me especially when my guy saw me. I stayed with him for a moment and it is the happiest moment of the day for me before I went inside the dance hall. The program started and I started to feel uneasy because the gym was so crowded. We didn’t expect that the cotillion would start that early and it was quite unorganized because the music was different from the one we were practicing before but it still went well I guess. After that, the dancing started. Before the prom, I asked my best friend to be my first dance but unexpectedly a junior asked me to dance while Oliver was dancing with Jezreel. It would be rude for me if I reject the guy so I accepted the offer; anyway the guy is cute (harhar). At that time, I started to enjoy myself. In the middle of the occasion, brown out occurred twice because of the overload. At the first brown out, instead of panicking, we laugh and shout and we even take our picture using a camera with flash. The second one, I was in the dance floor and thank God, my partner is a gentleman and he escorted me back to my seat. Then the party continues. I was really having fun at the prom but I have some comments on it. First, it was a little bit unorganized. The gym was so crowded and it’s really hot and it caused our make up to be removed. We can’t move freely because the chairs were tied together. I also have a comment about our snacks. We were not given a drink and we were really thirsty after we ate our hamburgers. Well these are the comments I have for the prom this year. Then we watched the pageant for Mr. and Ms. JS Prom and we cheer for our senior candidates. I enjoyed it especially at the question and answer portion. After choosing who the Mr. and Ms. JS prom, the dancing continues until it came to the last five songs which end the promenade.

After that, we took a lot of pictures together with my classmates, friends and best friends. Well, I’ve never thought I would enjoy the prom this much.
