In the United States, and increasingly in the "United Kingdom" and Canada, a promenade dance, most commonly called a prom, is a semi-formal (black tie) dance or gathering of high school students. This event is typically held near the end of the senior year (the last year of high school). Proms figure greatly in popular culture and are major events among high school students. High school juniors attending the prom may call it "junior prom" while high-school seniors may call it "senior prom". In practice, this event may be a combined junior/senior dance.

At a prom, a Prom King and Prom Queen may be revealed. These are honorary titles awarded to students elected in a school-wide vote prior to the prom, and seniors are usually awarded these titles.1 Other students may be honoured with inclusion in a "Prom Court." The selection method for a Prom Court is similar to that of Homecoming Queen/Princess, King, and Court. Inclusion in a Prom Court may be a reflection of popularity of those students elected and their level of participation in school activities, such as clubs or sports. The Prom Queen and Prom King may be given crowns to wear. Members of the Prom Court may be given sashes to wear and photographed together.
I borrowed Dad's car, then spent $400 on renting a suit, buying flowers, tickets to the prom, some liquor and a locket on a chain for her. Oh, and condoms. She bought a dress, got her hair and 20 nails done, bought shoes,tear-off underwear,a purse, and got a horrendous period an hour before midnight.

So she gave me a blowjob just like any other date, and she's still a virgin.

"Prom"- n - Not to be confused with prom, "prom is a gathering of people who are purposely not attending prom for various amounts of reasons including, not having dates, not wanting to dance, not having the money, or thinking prom is dumb. "Prom" usually consists of eating alot of food, playing board games, and watching either violent movies, or movies with couples in them that are easy to make fun of such as temporary examples such as Kirsten Dunste and Toby McGuire or historical examples such as Romeo and Juliette. "Prom" typically ends with a sleep over for the boys and a departure for the girls at a designated time in the evening.
1.) I do not have a date to prom so I think will organize a "prom" and invite some friends over.

2.) "Prom" is a chance for those who do not want to got to prom to get together and feel included without spending alot of money.
