Happy Tuesday! Today was a lot busier than I had planned -- my mom and I spent four or five hours shopping for my prom dress and and shoes! We went to a lot of places, but I think we finally found the right one at Dillard's! It's a floor-length gown that's kind of a nude color with white lace and silver sequins and it's strapless and it has a slit in the leg. It might sound weird but I think it's really pretty! We bought some coral peep-toe pumps which also might sound weird to go with a nude dress, but we figured that although the dress is pretty, it's not very flashy so I needed a pop of color, and the coral looks pretty good (I hope!). I think I'll get the same color lipstick and maybe my nails to tie everything together. My hair will be up (no idea on the specifics though) and we're not sure about my jewelry either. But I'm glad we've definitely checked off the dress and the shoes!
I'm not exactly sure why I'm so excited for prom, considering that I'm not going to be asked. Most people say, "Oh, Brooke, of course you'll be asked!" except I'm actually not, because I've never been asked to a dance. It's quite sad. I asked a guy to WPA (Women Pay All) freshman year, but that doesn't really count and it wasn't exactly my idea of a dream date, either. I know I shouldn't worry about it as much as I do, but I can't seem to quiet this voice in the back of my head that is constantly asking myself if there's something wrong with me. Like, most girls my age have had boyfriends and all of those first milestones in the romantic part of life, and I'm over here like "Hey I really like my laptop...," so there surely must be something really off about me that just drives guys away. Hopefully I figure that out pretty fast...
Carpe Diem,
Brooke
