Mina and I are going to prom! Me and her! Whee! So I got her a corsage, and dear fucking GOD. I went in there to get my corsage (Andre asked me to choose it and he'd re-embers me) and both of our corsages cost 18 dollars. Andre's boutonniere cost 9 dollars. Isn't that crazy?!

Do they think that us girls spend SO much on their dresses and hair and nails and shoes that we have no oney what-so-ever when we're done? That's most girls, but not me. My total prom expenses are:

20 dollar dress (YAY FOR SALES!)
50 dollar alteration (Estimate. Probably lower.)
9 dollar boutonniere (For Andre)
18 dollar corsage (For Mina)
25 dollar dinner (Again, a guess. Andre may pick up the tab and it might not be $25.00.)
0 dollar shoes (Dad got my shoes as a gift.)
0 dollar nails (I'll paint my own, thanks.)
0 dollar ticket (Thanks Andre!)
0 dollar hair (Mina will do mine.)

And the grand total....

$122.00 give or take. I know a girl who paid twice that for prom. I paid about 100 for Farewell Freshman. Cool huh? Yay! I'm a money saver.
