@ff, it's a school dance that if you were in the right country you would take a date to, but beforehand you would have asked our advice on whether or not to wear a tux. And in this case it would have been appropriate. But Monopoly afterwords is not cool.

If its a pattern for a dress, this site could give you some ideas, and they make patterns. McCall. I would imagine, you will be the prettiest one there.

Good explanation sirS
Ya thats about what it is if you're a girl, you search for a date or hope somebody asks you
you get ideas for a dress
get someone to make that dress
search for a date
get someone to do your hair
get someone to do your makeup
if you found a date, tell him to wear a suit with a matching tie and/or shirt
get a nice car and chaffeur to take you
look pretty
and off you go
arrive at the hall where the matricfarewell/prom is see that(in this case this year) half of all the girl or actually more than half look annorexic
listen to speeches
eat
dance if you want to
take lots of photos
go home
show the guys on TLR what you looked like

oh ya before you go the the main hall there is a small function with the parents, dunno what you call it in english, but they take photos there as well

@ finalday thanx for the link, I don't know about being the prettiest, but I know I'n going to have the prettiest dress

Edit and I forgot to meantion the bad part, you spen all the money you have and dont have thats the ouch part :/

you left out one important step, The after party!

For some yea

@sw

Why don't you put together you're own posse and have a counter prom then? Or am I mistaken in thinking that you're doing this because there are no other choices?

Indy well I guess we could, but this is a function organised by the school The Gr11's organise it, I've been to one two years ago with a friend, its actually fun, and the food is sooo nice. But I think one of the biggest things of a prom is actually for the girls to show off, thats why its getting so expensive every girl wants to look better than the next, so they do more and more expensive stuff, I think last year there was a girl whose drees(actually a two piece) cost 6000bucks
So yea thats actually whats most expensive the dress
I still say I want to go in a jean and T-shirt, but I dont think that is allowed

Remember sw sometimes less is more, (actually most of the time less is more), an understated black number can outdo all the 6000 dollar slutty 2 pieces in the world. Just a small nugget of advice from a prententious git who despises the over dressed. Just ask Holly Golightly...

Mustang I know, but I refuse to go in black, too many ppl do it. I want sth simple but also someone never had, I believe both is possible
Thanx for the advice I guess most of the girls this year will look slutty its the new fashion

btw its not $6000 its R6000 about $1000

I'm not a fan of "proms". We had "socials" during my schooling (Australian proms), but they always seemed to be an excuse to get women liquored up, and try to take advantage of them. At least, that was how it appeared at the boys's school I went to. Ugh. Needless to say, I did not attend any of them.

"they always seemed to be an excuse to get women liquored up, and try to take advantage of them.."

And? Your problem is what, exactly?

Well there's no alcohol allowed, this is not exactly a prom, its called a matric farewell, it is the final function of you school career, so everybody wants to look nice

@Taw

Isn't it obvious? Esqy wants the women to get him ginger-beered up and try to take advantage of HIM.

ROFLMAO
