Thoughts raced through my mind as I twisted and turned, trying to catch at least a wink before it was noon. I couIdn't sleep. The Prom was 8 hours away. I glanced at the rented tux hanging from the doorknoh . . . And thought of how long we searched for the perfect colors . . . I really should get out of bed and pick up the flowers .,. I hope she likes them. The alarm . . . wake up! . . . I have to get my nails done . . . I hope he doesn't come early. I LOVE my dress , . . lt's perfect. Darn it. How do these cufflinks stay on? These shoes are BOTHERING me. The Limo's coming in 20 minutes .. . I just have to shave. MOM will you help me with my dress? Where's my shoes? I love high heels I hope he doesn't think my hair is too poofey ,.. Mom she's waiting .,, don't take pictures of me now . . , Is he here? ... ls that the bell? ... Tell him to WAIT. l'lI be right there . I think of him as I glance in the mirror . .. and smile quietly to myself . . . It's the Prom, and I look good . . . She walked into the room . , . she was over- whelming . . . I felt so proud as I slipped on her corsage. He looked so handsome . . . I was speechless . . . Happily we smiled as mom took pictures.
