After much anticipation, Prom night came and went. The weeks before were filled with scrambled planning and preparation for this high school holiday-- rose petals lined the junior and senior hallways from the extravagant "Promposals," friends weighed the pros and cons of renting limos and debated where to go to dinner, girls sent each other infinite pictures of dresses from dressing rooms and websites. Finally, about a week and a half ago, Mrs. Myhre's efforts came to a reality. Students dressed up, took probably way too many pictures, and headed to the Masonic Temple, the impressive venue for the night. The highlight of the night, besides the great food and fun with friends, was the view from the top of the structure. You could see Alexandria for miles and all the way to National Harbor in Maryland! Overall, Prom measured up to everything I'd imagined it would be when I was 10 years old and entranced by High School Musical, except maybe there was less spontaneous breaking into song.
