I'm going to mine this coming weekend.
I'm going solo and I'm pissed about it.
Last year when all my friends talked me into going (I wasn't going to go originally. I still think it's a waste of money) we had all agreed we'd go together as one big group. Now I'm the only one without a date. I'm going to have such a ****ty time now.
But, I've already spent over $200 on the dress and its alterations and $55 on my ticket so I might as well go.
It's going to suck balls, though. I hate dances and was only going because I thought we'd be a group of friends instead of me sitting alone at a table full of couples.
Heck, I'm apparently so inconsequential to my friends that none of them put me on the seating chart with them until I brought it up- and thank goodness they made the tables bigger or I'd be sitting with people I don't even know.
I'm also going to end up riding up with my mom because, as one of my friends put it, "well, we might have room for you, but I doubt it".
FML.
I hate prom.
