It wasn’t all just a dream — you had an amazing time at the prom! It’s normal to feel a little sad when it’s over. But with a little help from your friends and some crafty know-how, you can relive the fun!
SNAP IT
The next day, ask your friends to e-mail you their digital prom photos and to come over to your house. Together, combine the pics into a major slide show so you can laugh or ack! over them together. Vote on your favorite shots, write funny captions for them, and burn CDs for each of you to keep. Then you can pop it into your computer anytime you want to revisit the big night!
SCRAP IT
A perfect night deserves a scrapbook. Before you and the girls head to the craft store for supplies, check a Website like Scrapbooking 101 for ideas, like different ways to showcase your pics and decorate pages. Don’t forget to write captions for the photos to help you remember your favorite moments, and add a few fun written-out pages like “Top 10 Ways My Friends Made Senior Prom Amazing!”
FILM IT
Set up a video camera, cram onto the couch with your friends, and tape your own prom version of E!’s post-Oscar gossip fest, complete with best-dressed lists (guys too!) and a recap of the most outrageous prom moments. And just think, you’ll have twice as much fun watching it at your high school reunion!
LONG LIVE YOUR GOWN!
Dry-clean it, then consider these ideas!
— Vow to go bowling with your friends exactly one year later — in your gowns!
— Round up the girls and sell your dresses to a consignment shop. Pool your dinero and go out for a fun dinner.
— Donate your gown to Fairy Godmothers, Inc. They’ll sell it to a cash-strapped girl for $5!
HAPPY PROM ENDINGS
Three CG!s tell how they kept the prom spirit going after the bash:
"Practically my entire class went to the shore after prom. We stayed at the beach the whole weekend. It was so much fun that we totally forgot about the actual prom!" —Christina, 18, Westfield, NJ
"My friends and I videotaped our prom and the parties. The next day we watched it in our gowns and danced to the prom music. It was so corny — and totally fun!" —Keelie, 18, Kunia, HI
"After prom we rode in the back of the limo for hours telling jokes, then in the morning we went to a theme park. Hanging with my friends made it easier to deal with it being over." —Sara, 22, San Pedro, CA
