the prom

Last night, the Juniors and Seniors made their way to the world of glitz and glamor as they had their JS prom. the school was beautifully decorated with balloons and flowers and the red carpet was laid on the floor. it was a night to remember. as the registration begun ordinary faces in the classroom were transformed into faces like that of Natalie Portman, Anne Hathaway, Cameron Diaz, Paris Hilton, Nina Dobrev, Justin Bieber, Zach Efron, Chris Colfer, and many others. Our eyes glistened as the ladies walked graciously on the red carpet with their stunning gowns, and the gentlemen were all extraordinary looking in their suits.

However, not all enjoyed the night perhaps. before the program started some ladies were held at the backstage because they failed to follow the dress code. we understand totally that this is supposed to be their night; however, we would also like to tell them that we meant what we said. that whatever is instructed, they should follow. at times, the young ones really would like to test how consistent and true we are to our words.

During the dance, some were just seated, and did not even have the chance to be in the dance floor. perhaps, no one wanted to dance them, or perhaps they just wanted to sulk in the corner. it was an awful sight to look at. i hope they had fun though they were sitting all throughout the night.

Nonetheless, most of the students really had a wonderful time that night. the cotillion and the social dance were all leg-breaking, and were wonderful to behold. the dance floor was almost always filled with people. time ran so fast, most of them didn't even notice that the party had to end. it seemed so swift most especially for those couples who were still having a good time with their partners.

indeed it was a memorable night, not only for them but for us, teachers, too!
