I realised I haven't posted in ages! .....Exams taking over my life..... fun fun fun.....here's an update...
The prom dress hunting has NOT gone well..... my mum decided to bring my gran along (when was that EVER a good idea??!!) and so, at that point i knew looking like a pair of curtains was a very likely outcome to the trip.
You've probably gathered we didn't get a dress! I tried on some fairly horrific things though, including a purple dress which had a skirt so wide it wouldn't fit in the changing room for me to try it on, then when i did eventually get it on i had to stand on a box to stop me tripping over! haha
It made me laugh afterwards!
My mum did actually say I looked like on of those dolls that people sit on top of their loo-rolls ....... so maybe it wasn't the dress for me! Gran liked it though!
So, now I'm still dressless and my gran keeps sending me pictures of people in dresses through the post, saying she thinks I should wear them more often, 'cos they're far prettier than all this other stuff i wear!
At this rate it looks as if i'm going to my prom in jeans and a t-shirt, which suits me fine! Here are a few things i did learn though:
1) DO NOT take gran. (she wanted to teach me how to flush the toilet properly and liked talking about very morbid things! haha)
2) Surprisingly, if you're short, getting a short dress doesn't make your legs any longer, so getting a longer one with an A-line skirt (not too wide!) stops you from looking like one of the seven dwarves.
3) Make sure you have you're best friend on hand to help you and have a good laugh at you afterwards!

which means i'm not quite free yet!
