5 reasons prom won’t be the best night of your life

Prom night. The time of magic, mystery and everyone looking fabulous… But is it really all it’s cracked up to be?

HEELS

Yeah ok so I understand that on prom night everyone wants to look like that hot, blonde Victoria’s Secret model, and that means turning your 5,4 self into the 6′ beauty on the page. But come on, walking is quite important, and the enormous graze down my shin is a stark reminder; pain is not your friend on a drunken night out surrounded by your classmates who are hollering like a band of baboons.

MYSTERY BRUISES

Like with any ‘morning after’, after prom night you will 100% wake up with several deep purple bruises and absolutely no idea how they came about. Did you fall and knock your knee or were you attacked by a rock throwing mob? Sadly, you’ll never know. Which leads me on to…

DRUNKEN ACTIVITY

Your friend will probably tell the hot guy you obsess over that you like him and you will probably find yourself dancing like a lunatic to the R&B music you swore you’d never listen to. Remember, you don’t look as sexy as you think you do and you most certainly will regret doing the chicken dance in the morning.

THE DRESS
It won’t cooperate. End of.

THE PICTURES

If you are a hater of awkward situations, do not, and I repeat, DO NOT, get pictures taken at prom. The photographer will be moody and the pictures will end up looking like something out of a ‘I paid for a photoshoot’ girls Facebook page.

Although, you are only a life loving teenager once, and I suppose if you take prom for what it is, you’ll have a night you certainly won’t forget.
