Formal time of the year can also be the most stressful time of the year. So much to do, so little time to do it. But once all the preparation is over, it can also be the best time of your life. I've just survived my first formal, so here's a look into the chaos that is your brain during the weeks leading up to the biggest event of the year.

1. OMG, I got asked to formal!

2. OMG, I got asked to formal…

3. What do I wear?

4. OK, calm down. Do I buy a dress or borrow one?

5. $80? Borrowing it is.

6. OK, now for this cooler.

7. He has my presence, isn’t that enough?

8. Wait, what do you mean I have to sand it first?

9. And prime it?

10. My presence is definitely enough.

11. What do you mean we have to share a room with another couple?

12. What do you mean we can’t ride in the same car during the three hour ride?

13. Open bar? OK, I can deal.

14. OK, time to start on this cooler.

15. Ew. My eyebrows.

16. How can I get to the mall? I have eyebrows to get done!

17. AND PAINT. CAN’T FORGET THE PAINT.

18. Ooo, there’s a cute dress.

19. It won’t hurt to check it out, just in case I like it better than-

20. NOPE. NOT A GOOD IDEA. $120 IS NEVER A GOOD IDEA.

21. Eyebrows- check!

22. Yay time to go!

23. Wait- paint.

24. How much do I need?

25. This boy better worship this cooler like it’s the Super Bowl trophy.

26. How do I sand the thing?

27. How do I paint Captain Morgan?

28. No wonder I’m not an art major.

29. OK, not bad.

30. Wait, what do you mean I have to do another coat?

31. And a top coat?

32. This boy better worship ME like the Super Bowl trophy.

33. Don't mind me, just taking a break from this darn cooler.

34. After all of this, they better be making formal shirts.

35. I’m broke, but I need a formal shirt.

36. Officially giving up on this cooler. I AM enough.

37. OK, formal prep starts.

38. Shaving, check.

39. Nails, check.

40. I would get a huge zit right now.

41. Why does God hate me?

42. Nothing a little concealer can’t fix.

43. Three hours in the car with strangers?

44. OK, they’re kinda cool.

45. Chance the Rapper? This ride will be just fine.

46. Hotel check in- check!

47. THIS ROOM IS AWESOME.

48. *Jumps on king-sized bed.*

49. *Does flip onto king-sized bed.*

50. *Lies down in exhaustion.*

51. OK, time to get ready.

52. Some eye shadow…

53. A little darker.

54. NOT THAT DARK! Crap.

55. Time to start over.

56. Better.

57. And now just slightly wing this side.

58. And same to the othe-

59. Not that long!

60. OK, just readjust the first side.

61. Well I’m running late, this’ll do.

62. Time to get dressed!

63. WHERE ARE MY STICKY BOOBS?

64. Heels on.

74. 90s throwbacks? OK, I see you DJ, I see you.

75. OK, party's over.

76. Midnight exploration of the city? Why not!

77. OK, who wants pizza?
