Feeling Nostalgic on a Saturday Night

For some reason, I realized yesterday that it has been six years since my prom.  You may be asking yourself why I know the exact date of my prom; however, our special night was on Friday the 13th causing many superstitious rumbling from our friends.

Anyway, today I went in to get my hair done, there were three separate girls who were there to get their hair done for their own prom.  These girls had so much hope for a special night and could not wait until they could show off pictures to the hairdressers next time they were in.

I don't know why I am thinking about prom so much but I find it funny.  Six years later and instead of getting dressed up for proms, my friends and I are getting dressed up for weddings.  Think about it, the guys have to wear suits which they normally don't wear while the girls like to get their nails and sometimes even hair done for that special day.

Six years ago, I never would have thought that I would be playing dress up more often then I ever thought I would.  Prom night seemed like a special one time deal, but now I look forward to wearing a beautiful dress at my friends wedding in July.  And finding a nice dress to go to another wedding in June.  It's crazy to think high school was six years ago, but at the same time how our life evolves to sort of cycle high school.  The dances turn into weddings.  The hang outs at friends houses turn to dinners and bar nights.  The homework turns into actual work.  And the friends?  They eventually turn into family....
