This weekend was the PSHS prom.
On Friday, we wore our prom shirts, that had like stick figure caricatures of everyone in our group. We got a lot of compliments about them. The design was great, but the shirts fit horridly though. =/ When I got off from school, I went to the tux place to pick up my stuff. Well, they couldn't get a hold of the stuff I ordered, so I had to change my order and I'd hafta pick up the tux the next day.
After that, we went over to Emily's place to eat, and the girls had made us these customized placemats- very cool. =) After dinner, we went to Nickelrama and played arcades for a couple hours. Ruth hit the jackpot with the tickets, and got me some fuzzy pink dice, hahaha. Then we all went to Debbie's dad's house to chill. We ate brownies and icecream and stuff. They wanted to play twister, but that lasted all of about 5 seconds before we decided that was stupid. Then we played guys vs. girls charades. It was really fun, and we are all thoroughly amazed by Ruth's ability to guess impossibly difficult puzzles. Went home around midnight, and fell asleep almost immediately. Man, I've just been feeling really un-energetic recently.
On Saturday, we started practicing dragon dance again in performance training, and that gave me blisters all over my hands. =( I picked up the tux and corsage on my way back from kung fu. I tried to take a nap between kung fu and meeting for prom, but that didn't work out so well. We met up at Pasty's place around 6:00 and took pictures and stuff. Man, it was so unbelieveably hot out, we were all sweating like crazy. I used a Kleenex to wipe off the sweat, but didn't realize for the longest time that it was leaving little tissue specks all over my face, D'OH! Anyways, we ate dinner at Cafe Capri, I think cuz Navid had the hookup; dinner was great- Navid & George are hilarious!
The guys had decided not to take a limo, so instead, we got 2 suburbans, and the girls decorated them with Christmas lights. From dinner, we went to South Fork Ranch, where the dance was being held. Ruth was adamant about not getting our picture taken, despite me practically begging & pleading, so no official pic. =/ I saw a lot of old friends and acquaintances at the dance, which was cool. But man... I guess I've just got a bad history with school dances, they always tend to disappoint me. They make me realize I'm not nearly as close to my date as I previously thought. I was pretty upset that I was having such a hard time [connecting] with Ruth since we're really good friends online. The whole occasion seemed highly... [impersonal]. I got the vibe that she just didn't particularly want to be there with me. =( Well, I dunno, I better not go into that...
Anyways, Ruth & I didn't end up dancing together very many times. How ironic... now that I've finally gotten over my dread of dancing, there is no dancing to be done. =/ So to amuse myself elsewhere, I got together with Kevin & Edward and we started goofing off, doing a bunch of silly stuff. Heh, that was probably the highlight of my evening- just going crazy with those two.
We left prom a little early and went back to Pasty's house to change for afterprom. At this point, everyone was feeling dead (tired); I'd actually had that dead feeling all week, but now I was physically tired as well. Afterprom was something of a disappointment. The food was better than West's but there was less to do. After losing several hands of blackjack and saying hi to a couple people, I was basically just wandering around aimlessly. I took Ruth home around 4:00, came home, and plopped to sleep.
*Oh yea, and my brother was home from college this weekend. I saw him a total of maybe 5 minutes.
