Dress: 100 dollars
Shoes: 50 dollars
Having a great time at the Winter Formal: priceless
Most people in high school don’t have much to look forward to than minimum days and the occasional assembles. But when the school sets up a dance it a lot of times is a great way for people to hang out and make friends. There are only about three dances a year in high school, not including prom which is only for juniors and seniors. So when Winter Formal comes around, most of the school finally has something to look forward to and make plans for. For girls, it is a whole different story than it is for a guy. This time it was the girls who had the ask the guys and had to pay for the tickets which ranged from 90- 100 dollars based on which day one bought them and if one had an ASB card or not. Girls usually have to either make hair and makeup appointments or do it all themselves which causes even more stress. For some reason, yes girls do stress about dances even though our hair and make up will be ruined by the end of the night. Besides the hair and make up, girls usually spend time looking for the perfect dress and shoes to match. Guys on the other hand just rent tuxedos and they are good to go. All they need it the color from the girl to be able to get the right colors and match together. For a dance like Winter Formal, many groups, big and small, all rented a limo and go out to dinner at a restaurant. Groups usually meet up at one person’s house and take pictures then have the limo pick them up and go out to dinner. There are many different places that groups can go for dinner, some popular ones are Buca de Beppos and of course the famous BJ’s restaurant. Both are located in the Tustin Market Place, a busy hotspot for teens with restaurants to movie theaters. After dinner, the group is taken to the dance, where it may be held. This year, our Winter Formal was held at the Angel’s Stadium. There was karaoke and drinks and food in a club above the field and the dance floor was held at the outside patio. Groups were able to take pictures at the dance and couples pictures were taken before at Foothill High School. All in all, it was a great night with good music and a lot of people.

Thank you for the great article on winter formal
it is very true it is completely different for a girl than a boy
i love going to all these dances, mostly to see what all my freinds are wearing. but this year, i was kind of disapointed, i didnt see anyone. i saw about 1/8 of all my friends. i loved the setting, that was fun, but i just wish i could have seen more friends.
wow you actually got a date to this thing? haha great blog and well written
All in all winter formal was good this year. It went by really fast and they could of had a stage set up so it wasnt so cramped with the dj table and all that but other then the stage missing the music was alright. there were some songs that were tricky to dance to and were more of lets sit on the couch and litsten to these tunes or lets stand around while these are playing. ill have to admit the music was better then homecoming though and we had more range to dance how we pleased. all in all it was a good night and left counless memories for ever and ever.
