The dress. The
tux. The hair. The nails. The shoes. The pictures. All for that One. Memorable.
Prom.
The Class of
2016 Junior Prom took place on April 10 at the Hilton Plaza. The event was
filled with pictures, laughter, and lots of dancing. The night was a memorable
evening where everyone looked beautiful and handsome. The dresses were colorful
and fit everyone’s personality.
Jojo Mandra,
Sydney Young, Arianna Ramirez, Alexa Vargas, and Mollie Fraser looked
absolutely stunning in their dresses that fit them perfectly. Chris and Brian
Kenton pulled off the white tuxedos to look like Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill
from 22 Jump Street.

As for myself,
my mind was set on finding a dress that looked like Taylor’s Swift dress at the
White Winter Gala in 2013. I searched online and found
worldcelebritydresses.com (I highly recommend looking at because the dresses
are made well and cheap for the quality). World Celebrity Dresses remakes
dresses and on there I was able to find dozen of Taylor Swift dresses and the
one I wanted!
The dinner was a buffet with choices of
chicken parmesan, vegetable lasagna, potatoes, string beans, salad, and bread.
Couples and friends sat together and enjoyed the meal. Particularly at my
table, the conversation was focused on the interesting center pieces composed
of clear gel vase fillers, which we threw at one another.
DJ Dan played a
mixture of techno songs, popular songs from the radio, and oldies. Some
highlights were “Uptown Funk” by Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars, “Style” by Taylor
Swift, “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough” by Colorblind, and “Rather Be” by New
Eyes. The slow songs consisted of “Drops of Jupiter” by Train, “Thinking Out Loud”
by Ed Sheeran. The dance ended with the slow song “Earned It” by The Weekend.
The main feature
of the night was the photo booth. The photo booth allowed students to take home
photos while having fun. Props, such as hats, glasses, and feather boas were
provided for students to act goofy and have a little fun with their pictures.
The photo booth provided the students to take a break from dancing and continue
the fun as they got to dress up and take pictures with friends.

The highlight of
my night, however, was when Madeline DiMauro, Ms. Smith, and I had to go out to
the car to get my boot.
Two days before
prom, I had to get a walking boot due to a stress fracture. Instead of wearing
it all night I decided to wear my heels up until the point where it really
hurt. After “Style” by Taylor Swift came on, I went “too hard” and ended up in
a lot of pain and had to get the boot.
Walking out to
the car, Madeline and I saw the gazebo and took a really cute picture. After
avoiding jumping into the pool (because it was really hot) and the silent
auction going on, we got back up to the dance floor and encountered the photo
booth again. My group of friends decided to do something fun with the photo booth
and my boot and decided to pick me up and show off my boot and of course Joe
Brown came to take a photo.
After all the
stress and anticipation that went into planning it, junior prom has come and
gone. The Bulls’ Eye Staff hopes
everyone had a safe, fun, and memorable evening!
