T-Minus 12 hours.

I wake up and get ready for school bringing nothing with me but a pen and a sheet of paper.

T-Minus 10 hours.

First class of the day. Less than half of the students are present; they must be getting ready.

T-Minus 8 hours.

Remind me again, what was the point of coming in?

T-Minus 6 hours.

Finally! It’s time to leave school. I run to my moms car and head to the beauty salon.

T-Minus 3 hours.

Nails done, hair done, makeup done. Dress, shoes, and purse in hand. On my way to my friends house to help her get ready.

T-Minus 1 hour.

I’m taking pictures in front of the limo with all of my friends. Everyone looks amazing.

It’s time.

We step into the venue and it looks amazing. Music is going, people are laughing, and the atmosphere is great.

The next 4 hours go by in a blur, but they are most definitely some of the most fun of my life.
