the trifecta

since my last update i really learned one of those things that i suppose every teenager my age learns with personal experience: prom is overrated. of course i should have learned this last year but since i didnt have a date last year i figured having a date would make it what everyone and by everyone i mean girls and stupid tv shows say it is. of course its not. its just another dance. and just like any other dance, what makes going to it worthwhile is not the crappy rap music or fellowship without room for the holy spirit but finally enjoying the company of friends and those closest to you. so hopefully i dont sound bitter because i am in no way bitter, im simply more experienced at the whole prom thing since i went to three this year.

First prom: kettle's

Location: phister in milwaukee
The Phister was a fabulous place to have prom. The building was beautiful and the food was delicious. only problem was that its location in downtown milwaukee made the school go anal and forced people to be driven there by professional transportation.

Transportation: yellow school bus
my friend justin Scherbarth's dad drives a school bus so for a reasonable fee he took a good group of kids down to prom. Bus was clean, driver was hillarious.

Dance: Leah wasnt feeling very well and was really tired since she had school that day and had to get up at 5 in the morning. This meant we sat and she simply rested on my shoulder for most of the dance. Sometimes its your job as the guy to be a pillow, this was one of those days and i think we made the best of it.

Post prom: me and leah watched the disney version of robin hood at my house which was actually alot of fun. The she had to go home because her handbell choir had state the next day.


Second Prom: Wisco's

Location: Four points Sheridan
The place was not quite as fancy as kettles but was very nice none the less. major bonus for serving us as many dinner mints as we wanted. again dinner was served here and again we had a good meal.

Transportation: small limo
the limo only held 6 people but was alot of fun nonetheless. the rest of the people were all wisco kids which is ironic because they were all in wisco's show choir with the name Wisco Kids

Dance: Yeah, this one was pretty much a mass orgy. completely different than fvl or kettle in that everyone was as kettle called it "pelvic grinding" it was hillarious to watch. overall this one was a fun time.

Post prom: once me and leah got to her house and passed all the seemingly sold out cheap hotels me and leah watched a movie and then had a heart to heart talk about the future of our relationship because ill be gone all summer at camp and then we go to colleges in different states. it was hard but something that needed to be done.


Third Prom: FVL's

Location: it was at some country club with lots of pine trees and a big staircase.

Transport: not much beats shinnick's car with sherry jones shinnick and dan

dance: there was very little need to dance with such great company and the loss of freebird

post prom: i lost my virginity...... to smoking. that was fun. first party was slow but the people were great and root beer was a plenty. then we went to midgets which rocked. i love that kid.

ok so i started this post a while back and i never finished it until today. i got more stuff to write but here is my prom saga.
