Prom 2009: Make It Flawless



The school year is coming to an end and the senior activities are quickly approaching. These include the Senior Barbeque, Grad Bash, graduation and the most mystical night ever, Prom. For some, Prom is a “Cinderella Story” to be shared with your sweetheart. For others, it’s one grand farewell party to celebrate with your closest friends. Whatever the reason may be, just know it will be a night you will never forget.

To make your night flawless, you should definitely plan in advance. Figure out who you’re going with, what time you should leave, and how you are going to get there. If you’re taking a date, start looking around for tuxedos and gowns. Sometimes department stores may have pre-prom sales or discounts on the latest dresses. A majority of girls want to be able to match with their dates. “After all, it is tradition,” said senior Kelly Budhu. So, it is best to get out there and snag all the good colors before they are gone.

Some may feel that Prom is a “couples only” event and may be discouraged to attend. “It is true that everyone may not have a date for that special night, but that shouldn’t stop anyone from going,” said senior Alliea Bacchus. Instead, gather up a group of your friends and make it a “BNO” (Besties Night Out). To add some extra fun, everyone should chip in for a limo or even a party bus.

On Prom night, make sure you give yourself plenty of time to get ready. The only result of being unprepared is running out the house with messy hair or scuffed shoes. If you’re going out afterwards, make sure you play it safe and stick to your curfew. Don’t try to be “cool” and try things you shouldn’t. What you do in one night, can affect you or your family for a lifetime. After all, a ceremonious gathering of your academics is better than a ceremony of your life.
