me

i remember once being at a house party and just eating half of the domino’s order which was at least Ł120. nobody even noticed what i was doing

My year weren't allowed a prom because we were too naughty.

So we had "a meal" and it was ****.

[y.winter]

Nothing special. Just a "prom" party on the highest floor of the famous towers of TLV. There's no queen/king/prom date culture around it over here - yet it felt kind of stupid, and too Americanized.

[Morgan.]

Our room king and Queen were picked by the teachers based on best dressed but it was completely biased as the only teachers who came were the behaviour imprompvement staff and they picked two of their special behaviour class kids. Like the prom king, remember chosen by best dressed, wore literally a plain black suit that he found on eBay three days before when others had spent a fair amount on nice suits

- yeah I had a prom date
- yeah duh? lol
- not a whole lot

Prom weekend was the fun part not the actual prom, such a waste of money. I wouldn't suggest going to prom unless you really want it for the memories. But even then just skip it and do something with your friends/class that weekend instead.

Is it common in the UK for the whole grade to all go to / get hotel rooms at a certain location during the weekend of prom?

Teachers usually get hotels because they're always drunk but our prom finished at 11 so we all got picked up by parents.

Meh. Well I had two dates because one of my friends went off on holiday with his family at the last minute and his date tagged along with us ...

However the prom itself... The meal was awful / dry, and even though I was 18 we weren't allowed to buy alcohol at the bar because half of the people there were still 17. Our after prom party was also a disaster... A few 20+ year old guys crashed it, drinks got spiked, fights got started, etc. and also for the life of me I could not get drunk. I was nearly a bottle of Jack Daniel's deep and I swear it just was not working, so I ended up going home :/.


I went to the after-prom the year before my own prom though and it was one of the best "teenage parties" ever . Stumbling home through a field at 6am - that sort of party . Just wish my own prom had been as good...

[Babayaro.]

Most people who were 17 in my year were either getting those who were 18 to buy their drink or even some teachers got it for them me being the shitebag I am, only had two kopparbergs at the actual prom so the event was nothing too special. The after party was great though, everyone still in their suits and dresses, still up drinking when the sun came out luckily the house it was at was massive because pretty much the whole year slept there. I still don't know why I woke up at 8 and walked 20 minutes to get a bus home :/

I don't think they were a thing in Britain, when I was at school. It was just an American thing. We probably just had an end of term party (without the title, prom)

Although, I wouldn't know, because I didn't go to school in my last two year's and was in a job by the age of 15.

I wore a lovely navy suit and went with the girlies!

Not an extreme tapered skinny?

[LukeB]

I wasn’t allowed to go because my attendance was under 90% and stuff because i kept skipping wood work most of the year.

But prom sounds boring so i wouldn’t have gone anyway.
