That's loser talk. Dances are fun

Those dances are like the ones where people jump, dance to mainstream, etc.
Prom is partner dances like throughout it all

Yeah, prom is about 50% slow dance. The other dances are 90% shit-you'd-hear-in-a-club-if-the-club-were-PG-13-appropriate.
#7
Ahahaha.
(:
Considering my old schools hosting it, it'll probably be messed up.
There's like barely any food too.

My proms(junior and senior) had three slow songs total. The rest was almost all club rap shit with a few songs I picked because I would go up to the DJ and berate him about how terrible he was which got me the 80s hit "Jump Around" and some Michel Jackson stuff.
Any way semi-formal dance equals same as every other dance with girls in dresses and in heels they will take off after ten minutes of bitching about having to wear; guys wear slacks, collar shirts, and jackets they ditch as soon as they get in. Some will wear ties, all that do will eventually loosen them and unbutton their top few buttons and roll up their sleeves.

Just wear like...a nice shirt and a skirt/medium length dress and some nice shoes. :p nothing too fancy. Just things that look nice.
#10

Then wear a prom dress. @.@ Last year my date wore a black dress (no shoulder straps) and she had a white rose on the waist. What are you looking for exactly? or is that what you're unsure about?

People care less than you think. I went to prom in a leather jacket. No once care very much when i came in and ceased to care after like five minutes. They only stare when you do something weird...like tango with a dude while holding a rose in your mouth cause your bitch date won't stop texting some 25 year old in Tennessee she decided she loves last night. Yay high school.

Any way yeah...wear something nice and just have fun, nothing else really matters. People is people, don't worry about how you look or what they think, just relax and have fun with your friends.
#13
Noo.:p
I have a dress and stuff.
I'm saying, what's the dance like?

It's in like...a room. have you ever been to a wedding reception? Just picture that except instead of families it's friends and dates that are there. and it usually has a theme. (Last year mine was under the sea)

First 30 minutes all the guys are over there and all the girls are over there, save for the few groups of friends that stick together. Music is playing(generally club/rap crap). Eventually kids go out on the dance for and do whatever they think is dancing, lots stand and talk.

Add that with other synopsis I gave.

I don't really give a shit about what people say, I don't go to school with them.
I'm just going because my friend asked me.

Then you're good. Just go and have fun. Its not a formal thing really. Semi-formal really is just a "we're all dressing formal-ish and then nothing else will be formal". There should be food...semiformal usually means food.

Lol. Everyone wants to take pictures with mee./:
It's like, everyone misses me blahblahblah.

I miss noone.
My best friend fucked me over and shit.
So screw them...

Kays.
Coffincase!(to lazy to fix it)
your an official expert on dances.
You are god.(:
so why in the hell am I preaching to some "god" who isn't as good as you?
#20
It's basically like C0FFIN said. People stand around, some people dance, and a lot of people leave early to go out to eat before they go home or go to a hotel or something.

I'm poor, so I didn't have a tux, but instead I went in a black jacket buttoned up halfway, my dads black tie, a plain white shirt underneath it, unripped jeans, and plain black sneakers.

Dude my friend made a duck tape suit for senior prom it was awesome.
My other friend went to goodwill and bought a tux like suit for $5.
#23
Ugh yeah.
My dates mom told my mom"I don't want the kids going to a hotel or some after party"
I was so offended.
You just don't go around saying that.

Yeah, not cool.
One: No one actually gets laid after a high school dance unless they are a complete loser.
Two: Only idiots who think "school is so lame and I'm so cool" have or go to a party after being at one just because it was held at school.

I've seen that before, very classy.
You can get a scholarship for college for doing the ducktape suit.
#27

The pants chafe.

Not if you do it right. You need ample crotch room and have to use pieces and sow them together.

My school's colors were blue and silvers so we were all about duck tape and/or tin foil clothing.
My friend and I actually pioneered a brief movement in my class to have tin foil spartan outfits for spirit days. Ridiculous but true. We had blue capes and stuff, it was awesome.

That or they trust you so much they're just ignoring it.
#31

And my dad agrees with her.
So now. I have a fucked up haircut.
Just for semi

I feel your pain.
Parents don't really understand you, but impose their will on you.
My parents force me to cut my hair every holiday because the know I want to look nice. They fail to get I look nice before they cut my hair too.
#33
We didn't sew, We put the duct tape face (sticky side) to face, and it worked pretty damn well.

The shirt took awhile to get right, and we later fixed the pants my duct taping cloth into the crotch, which fixed the problem mostly all the way.
#34
Dude. I know right.
The big thing is, my hair was long enough to have my hairstyle done right.
Now it'll just look weird.

How fast does hair grow?
