    Yr 12 Formal

    who was your date? No date, went with a group of girlfriends

    who was on your table? My closest friends - i still talk to everyone via FB but we all drifted apart over the years

    what did you wear? i wore a long PINK shimmery dress, it had shoe string straps and went to the floor with pale pink sandals (cos i was so tall) - anyone on FB there are pics i think if you want a laugh.... funny cos i HATED pink.

    how much do you remember about it? Lots, it was a great night, our year level all basically got along well - we took lots of photo's, laughed with friends.. it was great

    and the afterparty? No after party that night but we had had a big end of yr 12 party a week before with friends and boy oh boy was i a mess

    I remember sitting there thinking ''I really really don't belong here''

    I made out with a waiter and left early.

    Killer dress though.

    Year 11 deb (1993 I'm old!!) was with a guy I was really good friends with in year 10 and I asked him in year 10!! I had a boyfriend by the time the deb came around and we both did our deb with someone else which was actually kind of nice!! I haven't seen him since the end of year 12! Gorgeous dress that my mum made!! My hair was horrifically short and bobbed and for some reason I thought curling it would be nice - was terrible!!

    We had a formal in both year 11 and 12 - I remember having fun at the year 11 one and went to the after party but funny thing was nobody sorted an after party for the year 12 one so a few friends and I drove around in my friends car because she was the only one with a licence!!! I wore a long light pink satin skirt and singlet top thing from Portmans! All my friends wore suit type outfits which must have been cool in 1994!! I am friends with a few people on FB from school but never see any of them.

    Year 12 formal 1996. What a fun night!!

    I went with a male friend of mine who is gay, we're still FB friends although we don't chat much anymore.
    I'm still friends with a lot of the people who were on my table, in fact one of them is coming over this weekend with his wife (who was my bridesmaid) and daughter.
    I wore a grey/blue dress with a lace bodice and gold accessories. (Well- it WAS the 90's!!!)
    I had a great night and remember a lot, especially dancing for HOURS!!!!
    The afterparty- we had two, some of my friends were leaving to go on a ski trip the next day so they had a quiet few drinks after and then I went to the "official" after party which was mad and went until about 4am. Had a great time!!!
