It's Time To Be Me

4 Reasons Why I Never Need A Prom Night
Kebin Young

Everyone loves prom! It's the best night of all time, but I have never experienced it. After my sophomore year of High School I decided to do online high school. Long story short it never worked out and I am currently getting my GED. I realized today I never even needed to go to prom.

1: I'm not the Dress, Heals, Girl

I like to dress up for church and other events but I never liked to wear dresses for that long. High heals go in the mud, so why would I wear them if I can't keep them clean? I'm the country girl that loves the outdoors!

2: I Can Not Dance

I do not know how to dance. Prom is a fancy dance for teenagers. It's funny that I wanted to go so bad and I do not even know how to dance!

3: I Wanted The Perfect Guy to Invite Me

Both years in high school I wanted a guy so bad to ask me to Homecoming or Prom. I guess God has different plans for me in life! I was never asked to go to prom by the "perfect guy", but I was asked by the guy of my dreams to marry him and spend our lives together! One year later I finally realized all the things in life I wanted or want I never needed. What I needed was right in Front of me the whole time.

4: Who I Really Am

Saturday was Benton' s prom night. My husband and I had went on a walk, and then went to Benton park. I was wearing workout clothes that I was always embarrassed to wear. I didn't know what others would think. Especially all the girls that alwaying thought they were better than me. Well Saturday evening my husband tried to teach me how to play tennis. I made a fool out of my self right in front of people taking prom pictures and I did not care because I was happy to be me in front of someone I love in public!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
