Senior Prom Anticipation!

   I am so ecstatic at this moment! I don't exactly know if this would merit as an exciting or blog worthy thing to others, but it is to me, I get very excited about things!
  After many years of persuading, senior year has come, and I am going to the town's senior prom!
  This is exciting since I am homeschooled. My mother has homeschooled me since age four, she also homeschools the other five children in our family. She is a good teacher, and must be so happy to be graduating one! One down, five to go!
   I have to admit, I was not the best and most accepting homeschooled kid, I wanted to be doing the things that other teenagers were doing. I've been a loner all of my life, never had friends til I got my job last year, now I actually have some friends! We don't hang out, I am not allowed to stay over people's houses, but it is a pretty good thing going on.
  I've always dreamed of going to the prom.ALWAYS. I always pictured myself in a beautiful dress with a really cute boy at my arm. I will have a beautiful dress, but no boy, as I am not allowed to date, however, I am allowed to dance with the boys there! That of which I am excited, I've never danced with a boy before. I don't count on it, but I hope there will be a nice Italian or Jewish boy to dance with.
  The dress I am wearing is blue, and from the 70s. One of Dad's coworkers gave it to me. Prom is in May, I will be sure to post photos.
   I thought of buying a dress, but I really wanted to be different and wear that pretty old blue dress. I'm already going to stand out a little being a homeschooled kid at a high school prom, why not go the extra mile, it's not going to hurt!
  It's like my whole life lives up to this moment, something I've always wished for. No one has seen that, because they can't see directly into the heart, how much I am looking forward to and anticipating this.
   It's like the six year old girl in me is so excited, expecting this fairy tale dream to come true.
  The fourteen year old me is laughing it off, thinking it is not real, sadly thinking  that there isn't a chance.
  Then there is the 17 year old, so filled with awe and excitement.
 I can't believe I have lived to be 17, and am going to the prom in a pretty blue dress.
