Yes, it is prom all over again. You remember proms? You can see many of them in teen movies, Nickelodeon, stupid real life Mtv crapisodes and so on. Cable. Or, you might had the sad opportunity to lived one already. I hate proms in a way. I still remember my prom, it wasn't that classy, it was on a fellow student's house (he was rich) and after the graduation we all went there and my band at the moment P.S.T.H. (hardcore ska punk) played. Actually it was never a prom. Why? Beacuse I 've been in other proms outside my senior class and its a depressing matter to many. See, in proms you need to get a date, and it is all like a contest of who has the best dress, who eventually hooked up, look at that hair, blah blah shit and crap. I've seen girls cry and get depressed about proms. I went to 3 promsafter I graduated from high school; the first one was my first ex-girlfriend, she was all hyped about it, becasue its a show off night, anyways she ended up crying cause she wanted to dance salsa, and I sucked so, we didnt dance. By the way now a days I do, poorly. The second prom I went was with a girl friend of mine in Florida, and I got to live an all american Prom, with the jocks, the cheerleaders, the goths, the hip hops, the drama, the break ups, the alcohol. It was mayhem. etc. But I got to see how much a prom means specially to girls, its like a wedding day in highschool years. Now, my third "prom" was last night, you might think, p e d o p h i l e, but no, my girlfriend is the same age as I and we went to the 10th anniversary of my work place that took place on a classy restaurant. Why is that a prom? Well, yeah you are right, is not a Prom, but it had all the elements to make it a prom. Specially the element of the girls buying dresses, talking about it the whole week at work, who they gonna take, who might go with who, how you gonna fix your hair, blah blah blah. It was annoying, and something I thought I lived already and left it in the past I just re-lived it this week. Is not that it is bad, but behind all that, deep beneath, its like a message "do we reallly grow up?", some people might say, even me, that when people get all excited on a prom is just a teen phase, but now I think it ain't, we never grow out of that phase its just takes place on a different scenario. Like I said before the girls acted the same, and also, the guys in pre-print and photo digital were like the jocks, talking loud mmaking noises and screaming, and yes THERE WAS A SPORTS EVENT TOO, boxing, Cotto vs Mosley, so they were all ("jocks") screaming (I did too but to piss ppl off). Also, I could see the girls on the side of the dance floor probably gossiping stuff propbably like "So...they are together.." "oh look that is her boyfriend?" you know stuff like that. THe point is, things we lived in highschool or when we were kids, we usaullly live them again with the same emotions is just that since we are grown ups we tried to hide it a little bit. History repeats itself. Well need to go to buy a birthday gift, going to a birthday party, well actually its a "dinner".
SEE YA.
