Memories of My Prom
I was talking to my best friend Gavin on the phone and he told me he was going to the homecoming dance with his girlfriend, Caty, at his High School in Lakewood. Gavin is tall with brown hair and glass. Caty is short and has light brown hair. I met Caty at my old job and I thought she was kind of cute so I decided to set them up. Talking to Gavin jogged my memory of a special time for me while I was a senior at Lakewood High School.
My senior prom was full of wonderful memories. Dancing with some of my best friends, dressing up in a black tuxedo, eating some of the most wonderful food I have ever tasted, and riding in a white stretch limousine. I didn't go with my girlfriend, but I'm sure it would be memorable enough so that I can reflect on how important it was to me and my high school career.

I was going to the prom with one of my best friend's from high school, Sara. I have known Sara since grade school so I asked her if she wanted to go with me as friends. Since she didn't have a date yet, she gladly accepted the invitation. I told her I would pick her up in a limo 2 hours before the prom started giving us enough time to get to the Marriott in Downtown Cleveland where it was held.

After the prom was over, we made our way back to our high school to attend After Prom. After Prom is an alternate party to go to if you are just looking to have fun. It hosted several games you could play at no expense, because admission was included in the price of the prom tickets ($80). While I was in the locker room to change into something a little more comfortable, I put my clothes into an un-locked locker. The games they had there included a wall climb, where people strap you into a harness and you try to scale a wall to ring a bell. The committee also had sumo wrestling. You get into a fat suit and try and knock over your opponent. They also had swimming but the pool was unused because the girls didn't want to mess up their hair.
When After Prom was over, Sara

    I was starting out 3rd grade in a new school. I didn’t really have any friends except for one, but she was more like a sister to me than a friend. I met a nice girl name Mia in my class. She was funny, nice, and popular. She walked up to me all happy and cheerful and asked my name. Of course I was shy but I was able to let out my name in a sorrow voice “Ariana Ceniceros…”. Everyone stared in silence as I walked away.…

    In the two stories Raymond’s Run and All American Slurp, the themes in the stories have a big impact on the lives of the main characters. Both of these characters have a goal or accomplishment that they want to complete. Squeaky’s from Raymond’s Run is that she wants to make friends or be liked, meanwhile the Lin girl’s from All American Slurp is that she wants to fit in with the Americans and their culture.

    The Innocence of Edie

    “Not that this color is not important—in tales as elsewhere, white stands for luminosity and untainted sheen, thus for luminous heaven as much as for purity”(Da Silva, 2007). The thought was confusing without the paradox symbols. Edie sees the mat as cold or pure but when she walks on it, it becomes warm. Much like Edie’s innocence is warming up to passion. “First she depicts a girl, “thirteen going on fourteen, the hinge of your life, when you are . . . nor child nor woman . . .…

    This time last year I was a senior at the University of Illinois and it was our Homecoming. This meant we all ran around looking for an occasion to be a college student, interpret that however you may like. I was given the wonderful opportunity to serve on the 2015 Homecoming Court with 19 other outstanding seniors selected based on their campus involvement, merit and community service. I was in a parade, got to wear a cool sash and was in the halftime of the football game. But this wasn't nearly as eventful as how this homecoming weekend ended.…

    My teacher ran after me and asked me if I was okay and if I wanted her to talk to someone for me. I looked at her and replied assertively that I didn’t need help, but I wanted to move seats since I sat right next to her. She moved me next to someone who I never really talked to, she was a new girl in 8th grade and I was only in 7th. She was smiling and asked me how my day was and if I was alright and needed anything. She was very kind and cared a lot about how I was. The entire time we were not singing we were talking about our lives. We became good friends. Sadly, she did not have my lunch. I ended up searching for someone I knew at lunch instead of sitting at my old table. I saw an old friend from elementary school and asked her if I could sit with her, she said yes and we began to catch up on old times. We rekindled our friendship and I grew happy…
