Prom Night
So after two years,my college has finally ended. Its a bitter-sweet feeling because while Im excited to take that next step in life,Im sad to bid farewell to all thats familiar. I will soon,God-willing,be leaving my country and moving away to start a new life. Its thrilling but so very scary.
Last night had been simply amazing. The moment I walked in,more than fashionably late,heads turned and es burned. Every guy did double takes and I felt like such a princess x3. I became more confident in myself. People I know came up to tell me how absolutely gorgeous I looked and while I was dancing with a friend,these juniors were constantly looking at me and I wondered if something was wrong before they shouted "You look so pretty!". I blushed like a tomato,not being used the compliments. And as for my exboyfriend? Im pretty sure he was pretty damn gutted.
My crush,Im postive,didnt recognize me at first..how sad it that? And then he turned and [according to my bestie] looked me up and down,finally recognizing who it was and then he kept glancing at me and while he was leaving,he even bumped into me,our bodies brushing against eachother. I had my back to him so I didnt even know it was him. I thought I just bumped into some random person before my bestfriend told me it was him. I was happy.
Ive been busy all week,shopping for the right things,getting my hair done and the night before prom,my tailor messed up my gown. I was so depressed and my sister and bestfriend told me that they were taking me shopping whether I liked it or not. So we spent the whole day out looking for the right dress. And we found it and I loved it so much. I tried it out and showed it to them and they were like "O_O". By the way,this is my first time wearing a gown so...yeah. xD. Me and my bestfriend got our hair done together and we arrived so late to the farewell. But it was all worth it! It was such an amazing night.
Now my toes still hurt because of the high heels but Im ecstatic. I hope,one day,I'll meet the love of my life and tell him all about the night I felt like a princess. I looked up to the sky many times because Prom Night was also the night,two years ago,when my Dad passed away. I looked up and wondered if he was watching me,if he was proud of me. And deep inside there was this feeling...that yes..he was so very proud and so very happy. I love you daddy..I wish you could have seen me,all doll-ed up,but then again..youre always watching arent you?
The next time I wear this gown,I want to be on a date with my lover. I know it sound so fairytale-ish,but this gown has good memories for me and I wish to keep making good memories with it.
They say Time and Tide wait for no one. Just when you think youre starting out,in the blink of an eye,there you are at the finish line. Standing once more at the cross roads of another important decision,another step forward in life. Sure we all go 'Finally its over' but in our hearts we are overwhelmed with emotion. In two years,I made the bestest of friends and studied under accomplished teachers and ofcourse,had a frickin awesome Dean. I learned and I grew and Im truly grateful because it gave me the strength to pursue my dreams. So heres to the best two years of my life, and to one day return when Ive become someone. Thankyou Nixor. Thankyou Class of 2012-A proud alumni,whose ambition has been restored.
My career as a writer is only beginning,and I wish to keep bringing out the best of my work for my readers and some day.I want to expand into the real world and show everyone the world that is in my head through the words I write and I want to give people strength and courage through my writing. Thankyou everyone here,for their overwhelming support. I wont disappoint you.
Prom Night,you were everything I could have hoped for...and so much more.
Me in my pretty gown on the best night of my life <3
