Prom was just as amazing as expected. It was a warm and sunny day. I was happy with my hair, make up, nails, dress and shoes (painfull, but bearable). My host family took pictures and offered rides. I was surrounded by a great group of friends. And last but not least, I couldn't have asked for a better date :)
Most pictures are taken by Michael and friends.
Prom is a huge deal in North-America (probably bigger in US than in Canada). People have been talking about and planning prom since they started in high school. I had a pretty tight schedule, but everything ran smoothly.
10:00 - Worked out
12:00 - Hair appointment (50 CAD)
Flowers had to be picked up (Matias took care of this, 45 CAD)
15:30 - Frost park (pictures)
Eat (We went to Rudders to eat, but Yara and I had to leave due to bad planning)
19:00 - Grad march (The graduates walk with their dates in the church. The boy gives the girl a rose. I walked this with my Dutch best friend Yara. We were the only girl couple).
Michael picked Matias, Yara and me up at the church. We stopped at Superstore to buy some food. After Jordan, Celine's date, took her, Matias, Yara and me out to the lighthouse.
21:00 - Prom (Dance at a hotel downtown, 25 CAD for one ticket)
23:30 - Prom party
This was definitely one of the best days of my exchange in Canada, and will be one of my fondest memories. I would like to thank my mom (had to send the dress from Norway), my date, my host family, friends and hairdresser for turning my dream prom into reality. I hope everyone else had a great prom experience as well!
