prom in the uk

very very overrated (overrated is an understatement)

why I dont want to go...

1- my year is going to be there (very judgemental people - also they are all assholes)
2- the money involved (I'm really not rich)

3- everybody is very obsessed and I don't have the energy to try that hard for a dance

4- dancing is boring

5- there's no alcohol - i just want to get black-out drunk
6- no date (sadly - though did i mention everyone in my year are assholes)
7- i KNOW i will embarrass myself
8- #introvert

person 1: omg can we go to this prom shop to choose dresses?!
person 2: let's rent an expensive limo!
person 3: I'm going to work out and diet every day so i look good for prom!
person 4: I love prom in the uk!!
me: I'm not going
all: omg why?! It'll be amazing and fun!!
me: no. no, it really really won't
all: you're missing out
me: really, I'm not
