Venting.

So yeah I totally missed out on buying tickets the prom. Too expensive, too far away. I always (beginning of my senior year) had a dream that I would go with my friends and hang out. I have to admit it's slightly depressing. I just wanted to have one night where I would get to hang out with my friends and have fun.

It actually makes me angry that the school decided to have it at a Country Club. My friend L is going... I was totally not expecting that. I felt like telling him "Fuck you.", but that would be stupid. His job must be paying off, I am still jobless. The money couldn't have appeared out of the sky, he must haved saved or something.

But I've let go of that little grudge already. But what I can't possibly understand is why my school felt it necessary to have prom at such an expensive place. Only the fortunate or well-off are able to attend? Yes, I do believe that is so. Why not have it at the school? My school is so down the drain they just decided to drain every cent into prom.

I know not everyone can have the most normal (and by that I do mean what the majority conforms to) thing, but for once I wanted to be normal. Prom, and all that superficial bunk. But I can't have that, all because of financial status. I know I'm definately not the only one not going to prom, but I still feel kind of down.

And back to L, I thought we were going to hang out with M and bum around The City. I feel disappointed to be honest, I just hate getting burned all the time. If I did decide to go to prom, it would be $90 at the door and I'd need picture ID. Still waiting to get my ID (and by that I mean finally finding a ride to go get it done).

So yeah I'm just a bit moody about the whole deal. I just wish I could go to Prom, but this isn't a fairy tale where everything is fair.

:/ I'm sorry to hear that,

:/ I'm sorry to hear that, dude. That price is off the wall ridiculous, I mean 90 dollars a ticket? So stupid.

Well,

in all fairness it would be that much because they were already being sold for $70 but then they sold out. And now it's that crazy price for those who are buying last minute.

True, but c'mon 90 dollars

True, but c'mon 90 dollars for some country club and washed up d.j.? It's a tad ridiculous :)
