<p>Dances at my school tend to be incredibly awkward occasions.
Everyone’s sweaty. Tends to be a lot of grinding and many teachers who so desperately do not want to be there. </p>
<p>We actually have two proms, senior and junior. I remember last year, the seniors ended up $5000 in debt because they spent way too much on their senior prom. Yay.
Not sure how they managed to scrounge all of them up, but I believe it involved a lot of desperate donut sales.</p>
<p>our seniors are striving to make their prom outsida school… school suxs </p>
<p>and no junior prom… sadly enough :P</p>
<p>Juniors and seniors go to the same prom. I probably won’t go, I’ve never been one for dances. It’s sort of the last frontier of my awkwardness, so to speak.</p>
<p>same here… hahahaha… dances suck… but random partying is cool…</p>
<p>We just have one Prom for both classes. I have a date and I’m going. Prom is what you make it here, if you go to have fun and do your thing then its fun. If you go to sit in the corner and complain its not so fun.</p>
<p>^that’s how everything is… what you make it…
Guys. no one cares about the way you look/dance or what’s not… I’d say go. have fun. and don’t give a damn about what anyone thinks…
we all need the break… srsly
And look around ya. there has to be ONE GOOD not taken data out there! :D</p>
<p>“no one cares about the way you look/dance or what’s not…”</p>
<p>Shy people are aware that it’s an irrational fear. That knowledge doesn’t make it go away.</p>
<p>y are you?! :P</p>
<p>But they also feel better when it’s irrationality is said out loud (or this time “written”)… It makes the fear a lil better for a moment there… I was SO SHY at some point… Believe me, I know.
I ain’t 100% non-shy right now anyway… :P</p>
<p>My school only has one senior prom, but my bf’s a senior so life’s good 
I’m just kind of worried because I don’t have a group of close girlfriends who will go shopping and do make up together… and like you all, I don’t know how to dance :’(
Moreover, what sucks is that the prom is always on National Sci Oly day, and I’d choose SciOly over prom any day #Science4lyfe</p>
<p>lol… I actually got invited to Senior Prom too… by two close friends… </p>
<p>But the ticket is so DAMN EXPENSIVE… That’s my only prob. Plus… It’s more of a graduation. So I’ll be left with the teary moms and teachers (uugh…) alone… not exactly worth the money… :P</p>
<p>“Shy people are always aware it’s an irrational fear.”</p>
<p>So true. I’ve been trying to ‘cure’ myself for a while now, and have made some considerable strides in some ways. I still have some work cut out for me though. Recently I have been trying to go by the motto “DGAF”. Don’t give a ****. It works I guess, but sometimes I forget to tell myself it.</p>
<p>^^ Were I you, I wouldn’t go unless my friends pay for the money. You guys can plan an anti-prom dinner + sleepover, which is much less expensive and more effective in strengthening your friendship :P</p>
<p>lol… was planning a day out and stuff… we’ll see how it goes…
and yeah i told them they should pay
One said “you’re lucky enough you are going for 2 ppl… pay half for me, half for her!” -_-’’</p>
<p>@000Chet, I hear ya buddy. But you know… having someone encourage you, or you encouraging urself is so cool! it helps!
You’ll be the outgoing guy someday…
and know that even the most outgoing ppl are really shy at times… they just don’t show it! :P</p>
<p>Interesting day 
now to do all that HW…</p>
<p>Interesting day it is, I’m actually considering dropping my career goal of becoming a veterinarian because AP chemistry is giving me depression current grade: D, pre-calculus makes me want to burn my textbook, current grade: D and AP biology is preventing me from sleeping, current grade: B. Maybe I should become a teacher of some subject or go into special education.</p>
<p>I had a nightmare that I got a 2348 on the SAT. >_>; The score’s not even possible but it was so horrifying in the dream. I think I’ll be a lot happier after the results come out.</p>
<p>^having a 2300+ SAT is a nightmare… only on CC</p>
<p>@global
Dude, are you serious?</p>
<p>Haha, the topic has changed once more… maybe I should just slip quietly away until everyone forgets about my earlier comment >.<</p>
<p>Ain’t gonna happen quidditchcat. Fess up.</p>
