2:18 am
I don't know why I'm up now, really. Cos it's late, and my head still hurts. I've had this massive headache all day.
Anyway. I had my formal last night! Everyone looked
stunning. When I arrived at the pre's I kinda stood there gawping for a second. My friends are so gorgeous. The pre-party was really just a phototaking session. We stood in a group and there were all these camera flashes...it was like the paparazzi.
We arrived a bit late at the formal, but it went for 4 hours anyway, so who cares? Fortunately, the weather was great that night so we didn't freeze. Waited for a while before entering the hall cos the guys needed to be searched for alcohol/drugs. Constant gasps of oohs and aahs all around on meeting different groups of people. No idea how time just slipped by. We didn't eat much. Less than halfway through all our feet were aching so much from dancing in stilettos. But it was fun!
People say the afters are always so much better than the formal itself, cos there's alcohol and no supervision, blah blah blah, but I didn't really enjoy the after-party. Afters were at Yvette's place, and there was a bit of trouble getting the music to work. By the time it did I didn't want to dance anymore. I kinda got off my high so I was just sitting there with Nat, pretty much stoned before I'd had a drop to drink.
So that was my night. I half wish I didn't go to the afters; I'd really enjoyed the formal. No blame intended on Yvette though, nothing to do with it being her party. I was just a bit put off by the way the guys were behaving on the whole. And the way I reckon people were pretending to be drunk. I don't think there was that much alcohol at the party anyway. And it was mostly low-concentration stuff. Seriously it's so overrated.
Anyway. No pictures cos I'm too lazy to upload them. =b Too bad. I only have pics from the pre's anyway, cos I didn't want to be stuck with a camera at the formal.
I am going to bed now. Goodnight.
