After ten consecutive nights of going out, I decided to rest last night. (Actually there was nothing going on!) I went to my former high school\u00ccs prom Saturday night. It was fun as usual, although it was most definitely my last one! It was at the Grand Hotel Vienna (formally known as the ANA (All Nippon Airways) Grand Hotel but some rich Arabian oil king bought it), where it has been for years. I showed up around eight, but as usual the party didn\u00cct really get going until around eleven. It went until one, after which I hung around a bit and then drove a few friends home. When I got home at three I was horribly depressed because then I realized another week of boredom was ahead of me. Weekday nights usually are pretty fun, because I hang out with my alumni friends downtown, but the days just suck. I usually end up sitting at home and listening to music waiting for time to pass or someone to call me, which rarely ever happens anymore! I really like the weekends, especially Friday, when I usually hang out with some of my still-in-school friends.
\nI don\u00cct feel like killing all my money on decent, but not particularly exciting nights downtown. Basically my choices are to take the car and therefore save a lot of money but sit there while my friends really enjoy themselves, or take public and sort of join the enjoyment but also get rid of a lot of cash. The fact of the matter is that I want to buy a car later this summer and the euro\u00ccs worth a lot these days\u00f7 Except in Europe! Often I\u00ccll spend \u017820 a night, which is like $24. You can see how money has the potential to disappear fast at this rate. Luckily, since I take the car most nights I don\u00cct end up spending that much money.
\nI\u00ccm also a little upset that I\u00ccm flying to visit my grandparents on June 6, which I have found out is the last day of school at my former high school, and there will probably be a great party that night. I wish I had found that out a little sooner, but I\u00ccm looking forward to seeing my grandparents again, and I\u00ccm sure there will be many party opportunities when I get back four days later.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
