I didn't go to mine and I don't regret it. I went to prom weekend though and that was pretty... Wild Lol.
dude... IS JUST A PROM.
It's not ¨just prom¨ to some people. For many people, it's gonna be one of the last times they hang out with and have a bash with close friends. Depending on how much your friends mean to you and your plans after high school, prom can be pretty important to some people because of their friends.
