The Events of Prom: The Collected Works.

I was getting sick of pretty posed pictures so this happened.

• I acquired more selfies for my graduation frame that was given to me with the best intentions by my aunt and uncle, but who don't know me well enough to realize how unsentimental I am and how ill suiting a big picture frame with the numbers '2013' is for me.
• Rachel crashed prom for longer than most people stayed and no one cared. She had a better time than most people there, I think. She's the person I bring with me to random events because she gets along with almost everyone pretty effortlessly.
• A group of 15 people cha cha slid out the doors because they played it at exactly 9, when most people left.
• One of my friend's dates was a cute German boy in a top hat who was a blind date set up by her grandmother. 
• During this song, we stormed back into the dance, formed two lines and people danced through the middle. It felt like something that would be at the end of Footloose. It was followed by the Harlem Shake and it was a happy sequence of songs.
• I danced around outside the dance and yelled super obnoxiously to a Hedley song (hating Hedley is pretty much a patriotic duty) while waving around a fancy water glass and made Ms. Lutz, the scary as hell IB coordinator, laugh. I MADE MS LUTZ LAUGH.
• Maegan and I went to Starbucks to see Missy and Mike right after they locked the doors. I agreed to give 33 year old charming barista Mike a grad photo, and not one of the wimpy wallet sized ones. I'm sad that 33 year old charming barista Mike is getting a real adult job. Maegan and I are proud of him because he's growing up, even if we'll miss him.
• Noah casually changed his pants in the car on the ride with me, Maegan and Nick to the after party at Peter's.
• The 'after party' actually was going to a playground and then watched Atlantis after prom and am totally ok with how tame it was.
•  Accidentally fell asleep during Atlantis curled up with Alan. Definitely didn't help the situation that he may have or may not have been hitting on me lately. I actually can't tell.
• Noah left one dress shoe in my car. One. 
• Driving home at 3am and following a cop car for like 10 minutes while breaking curfew by three hours.

I set my expectations pretty low so prom was a pretty good time, as soon as the cameras were put away after like three hours of non stop pictures. I was surprised.
