Prom nite

Wednesday:
I met 2 friends at Causeway Point. We were going to look for shoes, then me and my friend were going for manicure. It was quite an experience for me. I did the french manicure with nail art on my thumbs. It was too much to pay if I did nail art on every finger. The outcome was a little strange, my brother said it looked "Gothic". My base was a shimmering light blue with black tip. I liked my thumbs best. We were sitting there for more than an hour waiting for our nails to dry. The next time I'll do this will probably be my next prom. It is just too expensive.
Thursday:
Our big day! A group of us met at my friend's house 1st. Some of them wanted to style their hair and put on make-up. I only put on eye-shadow, mascara, and lip-gloss. I wore a blue dress with diamond necklace and bracelet as accessories. We took photos before we went. Everybody looked really good. At 6pm, a friend's father came to take us to the hotel. We reached there quite early, though many people were already there.
One of my friends got nominated for prom queen. We were saying we'll vote for her if there's voting. Dinner was supposed to start at 7pm, but in the end we only got into the ballroom at 8pm. Some girls dressed elegantly while some guys from other classes dressed in a "hip-hop style". Our table was all the way to the back.
I took a look at the menu, and was surprised to note that there were prawns and fish among the dishes. I didn't expect that. There were some games going on while we dined, but we didn't participate. The dishes were alright, I supposed. I ate quite little.
My friend got 3rd place for prom queen. At 10.30pm, the prom had came to an end. Many people went around taking pictures throughout the night. I took quite a few myself.
Some friends wanted to go K-box but I was going home by 12+. In the end, the guys and us walked all the way from Holiday Inn Park View to Cineleisure Orchard. The girls were complaining about their feet. I had a few blisters too and they really hurt. The price for K-box was too high, and so we didn't went in. Furthermore, there were no movie screenings at that time. Even if we watched, the timing will be too long. After much delay, we didn't do anything at all. The guys went for their movie with a few girls while the 5 of us went home by taxi.
I reached home at 12.30 and had to call my father down. That was the reason I had to go home "early".
I could not sleep though. Regardless of some unexpected circumstances, the evening went quite smoothly. I had a great time.
Happy holidays~
