<p>lolololololololol</p>
<p>Not too well. I was rejected by the homecoming queen, the student council president, three members of the girls lacrosse team, the entire volleyball team, and two girls in the band, and was wait-listed by three girls in my Spanish class, two in my science class, and four on the tennis team. Luckily, I have some safeties in the math league, so I should at least be able to find someone to go with me, but even they might be reaches as well.</p>
<p>You act like you’re applying to a school… Have fun with it dude! Worst case scenario is you go with one of your “safeties” and have fun! Live a little!</p>
<p>“You act like you’re applying to a school”</p>
<p>I think that’s the joke.</p>
<p>As for me, no one was desperate enough to ask this year. (It’s probably just because they don’t know about my SAT scores. Yeah, that’s it.) It actually seems like most people in my school are skipping prom anyway.</p>
<p>Decision: accepted
SAT: 2390 (800 writing (essay: 11) 790 math, 800 c&r)
How did you ask?: I distributed applications and then picked the girl with the highest SAT score
General comments: Good thing her sat score’s still lower than my 2400</p>
<p>Proms are a scam. They’re an investment of time and money with no notable reward other than bragging rights to say “I went to prom with _____.” All people really do at them is party and you don’t learn any skills that will help you later in life. When you’re out in the real world looking for a real significant other, the fact that you went to prom won’t make you special or entitled to the person of your dreams.</p>
<p>It’s beginning to make more sense these days to date people online.</p>

<p>On a serious note, this guy on the tennis team asked a girl on the tennis team to prom by writing, “Will you go to prom with me?” on a tennis ball and hitting it to her.</p>
<p>^LOL</p>
<p>Honestly, I think elite Prom dates are an utter and complete waste of money. Why blow cash and time to buy a pricey tux and propose daringly when you can get the same experience, at far less a cost with your girl (or guy) next door? Future marriage prospects post-Prom are not at all affected and I can cite lots of studies that demonstrate this. Furthermore, why would you want to go to Prom with an exclusive, snobby date when you can go with a pal and learn to work in the real world? Besides, people like you who’ve worked hard, burnishing your date credentials for years, just to make yourself a viable candidate for the date of your dreams are grinders, try hards, provincial and have an obvious sense of entitlement. My [insert relative here] is going with his neighbour and she’s really just the best FIT for him. No need for excessive spending and elitism in this [insert place].</p>
<p>Also, a lot of people who only go to prom for two hours with their neighbor’s kid end up getting more out of it than people who go for the whole four hours with the popular kid (some people even stay an extra hour or two).</p>
<p>I already posted it on 2015 thread. Last week during 2nd period I impulsively decided to ask my friend to prom. We’re that one pair that the whole school is constantly waiting to see us get together. I asked her two hours later (4th period)…someone else had asked her 3rd period.</p>

Weaknesses? She uses an iPhone
General comments? She solved it a lot faster than I expected. Also probably the most creative/best proposal I’ve seen out of all the people I know</p>
<p>Everyone bashes these events, but I seriously was benefited a ton by asking a girl to my school’s Junior/Senior formal last year in a ton of ways (my school’s prom-ish event, with no dancing and everything being appropriate). I’ve been with this and last year’s homecoming queens to a school formal and think it was best that way, though at my school the most popular kids are almost always the most loving, serving and caring of others, since it is a Christian school : ).</p>
<p>Haha I even made my college application essays the story last spring’s event, which I think worked out. Anyways, onto this year’s (which couldn’t compare overall, but was a great time and better in some areas). </p>
<p>Decision: Accepted
SAT: Hers was like 150 or so above mine, she’s pretty smart and has never had a B (though my rank is like 6 ahead of her out of a class of 32 : P).</p>
<p>How did I ask: I wrote a poem and adapted it into song lyrics (I’m not musical at all), then had a friend write an acoustic guitar piece for it. We recorded the song with me singing (I’m am NOT good at singing, but it sounded alright enough), then I downloaded it to an ipod, wrote a page-length encouraging note and sealed the two into an envelope with her name on it. I had a friend ask her for coffee at Starbucks on a Tuesday morning and while she was inside I put the envelope and flowers on the hood of her car, while I was off in my car at a good distance. Cruised around and verbally asked the second she finished the song and it was pretty epic. Ah, I’ll miss these times!</p>
