prom
 

This is a shoutout to all you people not allowed to go to your school prom or just dont want to because of the issues you are going through.

i myself have not been invited to my end of year 11 prom just because i came into school pissed one day on the anniversary of my grandads death and got suspended. i think its so unfair because up until half way through year 11 i have been an angel...well almost anyway. and the people who have been good this year but not any other year are allowed to go. gah.

i dont want to go anyway...which i think is really sad coz i should wanna go. i would feel really self concious and not enjoy myself if i was allowed to go.
my friends are blanking me anyway atm so im not up for the whole social thing. i probably wouldnt fit into my dress anyway.

im gonna be so lonely on friday eve coz all my matees are going.
are any of you not allowed/going?

sorry for the piontless post

*hugs* aww hun sorry to hear that! My prom's next year but I doubt I will get invited...sorry that was no help...:-(

My school's being a bitch about stuff like that too. I mean I'm not the most well-behaved but I'm certainly not as bad as I used to be, and apparently I might not be allowed to go just because I haven't been attending the past few weeks because of medical (mental health) reasons. My psych's spoken to them and everything but my mum said something about it earlier...they seriously better not have banned me from going grrrrr! Especially when they said themselves that my "health is the most important thing."
They keep using it as a threat for everything haha "Misbehave and you won't be allowed to go to the prom," but I might not be allowed for something which isn't my fault?

Hopefully I'm going to mine but I understand your situation. Try not to worry about it doll, don't be upset because you think you should go. If you're not feeling up to the whole social thing at the moment it's not your fault. xoxo

I'm allowed to go to mine, and you don't really get 'invited' at my school. Everyone gets the chance to go, unless they have been spoken to individually - even then, the school tries to allow all to go but do have to crack down on some people.

I hope you guys who can't go manage to sort something out, or manage to organise something else with friends instead. :)

Take care, x

everyone got invited to go but i didn't go due to not fancying buying a dress and then to find some **** has ruined it.

plus i don't like the scars on my arms

I was worrying about my scars too I don't actually think I'm gonna attempt to hide them...it's the perfect time not to bother really, I never have to see most of the people there again and I've been thinking about "revealing" (well, just not bothering to hide them) them for a while now.

i think you should do it. i doubt they will even realise. go for it.

I couldn't go to either of the proms I could have, never had a date and then couldn't afford it (it costs $100 to go, plus tux and everything you have to wear or you can't get in) I don't really regret it I just wish I hadn't missed it, so yeah go for it try to sneak in.

lol :)
you got the wrong end of the stick
i meant there not gonna notice her scars not me sneaking in.

well sneak in anyways, thats what I say, go with a group of people as they enter

because i am my years student prefect i had to orginise the prom, so i made sure everyone could come. except i am unsure if i should go myself or not. to be honest i shoud go because its all my work. but im also a really unpopular kid (go figure) so shud i go.

i think you should speak with your teachers or whoever said you cant go and try to reason with them. or at least come to some sort of agreement on what should happen

i did but they were like everyone got warned in assembly at the start of the year so basically its your own fault coz i got suspended and it probably didnt help with the fact that im on attendence report. but my mate whos like skived half the year and has been on homework and attendence report is still allowed to go.
im not really bothered about going i just think its quite unfair and i think that they should be able to trust us people who arnt allowed to go for just one night anyway theyve got bouncers so they could just throw me out if i caused any trouble.
its like you do one bad thing one day and they treat you like youve been bad all your life. i wish they could see the positive in me.

It sounds like a very difficult situation and it must be horrible for you. Have you tried explaining to your school that it was your Grandad's anniversary and that you regret coming to school drunk?

yeahh but when it happened they were so dissapointed in me. i did it because i didnt know how i was supposed to act on the day and i knew the booze would kinda control me if you get what i mean and i wanted to cry so it kinda helped me do that. the thing is though its like a serious thing coz its illegal apparently i broke three laws. some criminal i am not.

the prom is now...but i am there as bens prom date in spirit only of course but ive been texting him like the whole way through so it kinda feels like im there a bit.
