Imagine my surprise to be “selected” to chaperone the 2010 Senior Prom as part of and one of my Board Member Responsibilities!!! It’s just THE most important event in a young girl’s life (that was said in my BEST southern accent!).
Add to that the fact that I have 2 Mentees attending! Hair to “get did”! Check! Nails…Check! Feet…Check! Ugghh --I’m too old for this!!!
I stumbled across this article about The History of the Prom; I know this may sound silly but I had NO IDEA Prom was the abbreviated form of PROMENADE! All this time I thought this red carpet showcasing stuff of the latter years was a matter of youth gone wild. And although many be-speckled outfitters have – it’s apparent that the ‘intentions’ –yes those wonderful things—were of the purest intent – sort of…
I won’t be making my way to this red carpet happening as my riders are not interested in participating – so they say; but if you see me there it is because THEY made me!
Here’s to the youth, specifically the Plainfield High School class of 2010 – I pray you all a safe and wonder time full of laughter, memories and lifelong friendships!
Cheers!
