Prom
This Friday I will be going to my girlfriends prom. And it is kind of a big deal for her. But I have never really got that. The idea of prom is to get together, dance and make a fool of yourself; hopefully all at the same time. While I'm sure I will exceed in this, I question why I am doing it. Yes, there is the whole I'm doing it for her factor. But there has to be something else. After all, I can have a great time with just her and I sitting on the coach watchin her favorite shows (which I hate). So why get dressed up and make a whole big deal about seeing your friends? Maybe we just like to make one day more special than the rest. But I ask why not make every day special?

I agree with you, prom is a waste of money. I don't just say that because I don't like that type of thing, but because I heard that this year it was over $200. To me, that's money that could be well spent on something camping trips. $200 dollars will buy at least 5 nights in a row of marshmallows, hotdogs and budweiser. Now comparing that (plus the campfire songs and simple good times) to one single night of dancing to some crappy little wayne remix dawg song, I choose the camping any day. But that's just me.
