Don't fret.
I'll tell you right off before I get to the heart of the post---prom. Anyway, my college choice is BYU-Idaho. Since previous topics touching on this matter have been hotly contested, allow me to briefly explain my choice and the choices leading up to that decision. Many people may question my motives for going, which is an understandable reaction. After much prayer and fasting regarding the matter, I felt that BYU-I was the place I'm supposed to go. The peace I've felt in making that decision is overwhelming. Anyway, on to PROM!
I won't go much into pre-prom details, but here is a quick preface to prom itself. The stress didn't start getting to me until Saturday about 1:30pm. I still didn't know when Kelsey could come up or when she had to leave. Needless to say my heart rate maintained a steady 100-120 beats per minute! My plans to picnic on the parkway kinda fell through, so I was left with picnicing on my deck. The closer prom got, the more quickly my carefully laid plans crumbled around my feeble teenage mind :)
Allow me to say though, that as soon as Kelsey stepped out of the car, the stress of the day was gone. Seeing her made everything feel---right. Her parents drove her up (which was very nice of them, all though I felt bad they had to travel so far). We made pictures---which I will post soon---and then her parents headed out on a date while Kelsey and I enjoyed a scrumtrulescent dinner of salad, steak, and strawberries dipped in whip cream!
After dinner, we stopped by my Grandma's house on the way to the prom because she wanted to meet Kelsey. We visited for a precious few seconds before we headed for the Cross Creek Country Club for a night of fun and dancing. Like most proms, the dancing was a bit...different...from traditional church dances. It was nice having Kelsey there, since we could revel in our cool dancingness together :) After a few songs we took our prom pictures, after which we had to leave since Kelsey had to be at my house by 11pm. At 11:06, we walked in the door (whoops). It was just a plain good time. The only downside was how quickly the night was over *sigh,* and back to reality I went. But I get to see her again in TWO WEEKS! Which I know I'm probably the only one on this blog who cares about this, but it's my blog so there! Ha!
That's all for now, I will see you around. Stay tuned for some good picture posts, and a nice little post-AP Calculus Exam post thingy.
I'm glad it all worked out. Good prom memories.
Adam,
HELLO! First of all, I wanted you to know that you and Kelsey looked splendeferous on Saturday night. I can't wait until you post a picture or two- we 4 matched so nicely! I'm glad that you had fun too!
Sorry I've not commented until now, but I've been really busy each time I read your blog. Even now I'm multitasking: I'm reading, eating dinner, and putting off my 15 page final paper just a little longer (I'm hitting the books at 7:30). I've tried to keep up with my pals through spying on their blogs. Do you know any other MA people that I can spy on through their blogs? (I better not phrase it like that anymore, it sounds creepy and I don't mean it to). I got your link from Ryan's page (he's been a bit slack in his posting duties, but hey, he's a busy man)!
I'll leave you alone, but I just wanted to drop a note and say hello. Tell Kelsey that I said hi, and ya'll enjoy your visit in 2 weeks!
Hey Crystal, so nice to see you around the blogs. Yeah, feel free to comment anytime, it's cool to hear from people at school (past and present). Anyway, I will keep on the alert for other MA people's blogs or what not.
btw, you and Ryan looked great! Keep me updated! Enjoy that studying...lol
i already heard some of these details, but i enjoyed them again. glad it was a successful evening. i actually liked the anticipation of prom better than the prom itself. but they're memories!
i'm anxiously awaiting the ap exam update!
I know what you mean, the whole prom experience is a lot of fun. It's actually kinda sad to think that I just attended my last school prom :( But I still have Kelsey's prom in May so the ride isn't quite over yet :)
And don't worry, the AP exam update is coming soon!
