who was your date? why? who are they to you now?

My date was a guy from my class - he came to my front door afterschool one day with a bunch of roses (from his mums garden) and asked me and I said yes.....however I also found out that some of my 'friends' had told him that I 'wanted' him (which I didn't) so perhaps he thought he was going to get lucky - he was disappointed if that was the case anyway!
He is a friend on fb who I haven't seen in 18 years! he is now about 4 times the size (he was always a weed, not so much now) and I am grateful we were just friends!

who was on your table? are you still friends with any of them?

We had parents at our graduation so I sat with my partners and my parents and I suppose a couple of friends but I can't remember who though. I still keep in contact with a couple of them, but am only actually friends with one who I've visited, etc over the years and we call each other every now and then.

what did you wear?
I wore an emerald green silk halterneck dress that mum made with splits up both sides to the knee - white stockings (eeeek) and black heels. 90's style!! I had my hair curled and pinned up and took out about a thousand pins the next day.

how much do you remember about it?

I remember it sucked - that everyone was just itching to get to the after party and therefore no one danced or enjoyed themselves much at all.....really disappointing.

and the afterparty?

Hmmm, well nowadays the school I went to doesn't allow after parties on the night of grad as it is a school day the next day - if students are found to have had a party, they don't graduate! But back in my day we were allowed and did.
I remember my partner getting totally off his face and vomiting everywhere and rolling in it - so charming, and he wonders why he wasn't 'getting any'!! I had a drink or two (I wasn't a drinker at all) and didn't get drunk. Some of my friends were tipsy but quite controlled. Alot of the kids were very drunk though. It was at one of the 'cool' kids houses and the parents weren't there.
This was before the lolly drinks of today - so basically the boys were on beer and the girls passionpop or green ginger wine!
I remember one particularly trampy (and drunk) girl making out in the hallway and the boy with his hand full on down her pants in front of everyone. Another very sweet and tenderhearted boy said no to his girlfriend as he wasn't ready. My friends and I ended up sleepingon the floor of the cool boys bedroom.
The next day we had to go to school to graduate. And my friends and I had to go to school on a bus - 30 min drive, given none of us had cars in those days, we all had to lay around school all day - some fighting off hang overs. Some interesting pictures that's for sure.
My friends and I did a run thorugh the boys toilets too - such daredevils!
