Prom in december! and i'm going dress shopping on thursday. I'm really excited but at the same time dreading the shopping part... i hate trying things on, partially becaus ei'm not really a dress-person to start with and partly because they never fit me! if they fit on the weist i cant get them over my bum, and if they fit on the bum they're really loose on the weist!
no idea what i'm gonna get yet, but i'll try and show pictures when i get it
what kinds have you had in the past, or do you want for your proms?

We don't have a prom or equivalent is a formal, but I doubt it is as big as yours... We go shopping for formal dresses at like the beginning of the year so there not all gone, or so you don't get the same dress someone else has..

I got my dress! tried to find a pic of it on the net but failed miserably
lets get the scary bit over with first.... £250! but it was down from £500 so i dont feel too bad
It's a strapless silk floorlength by Alberto Makali, all ruffled across the bust and petal-like floaty bits down the bottom. it's all warm rich colours of purple, orange... kinda hard to describe. and different textures with shimmery bits so the movement in it is gorgeous! can't wait to wear it to prom

I'm guessing you aren't the girly-girl type? Neither am I, lol. I don't mind pictures though.

Oh. So you really think about these kind of things. That's always a good trait to have, right up there with knowing which horses are the prettiest. XD

I sometimes do, but things I say tend to get poetic when I do that. Like one time my friends were talking about the cover of New Moon (flower) and they were wondering what the explination for it was. Here is what I said:
I think that that is the flower of Bellas life. The white parts represent her skin, which is pale, and the red represents the blood that Edward craves. The petals that are falling represent Edward, who leaves her in the beginning.

aw norsu, its great you still find those thoughts a good thing! lol they warped my mind... thinking is so tiring now, sent me down a rapid descent into madness
not long till prom! spent £60 on accessories, its horrendous... 20 on shoes (theyre so cute! cant walk in them yet though), 20 on jewelery and 20 on an adhesive bra. it feels so wierd! lol
