Formal is Over... Now What?

What really goes through your head the day after formal.

Formal is Over... Now What?

Everyone looks forward to the day of formal. Getting dressed up, taking so many pictures that your storage fills up on your phone and dancing the night away. No one talks about what happens the day after and the questions that fill our heads. Here are some gifs to explain exactly how you are feeling.

What happened to my shoes?

Waking up and realizing that your shoes are ruined or you lost them can be a very upsetting. You start replaying your whole night over and cannot think of when you destroyed them. That's why it is important to have certain shoes dedicated only to formals. This way you don't care that much that they are scratched up and the heel is about to fall off.


Where are my keys?

As with the shoe scenario, the fact that you have misplaced your keys is upsetting. Keys are a little more important than shoes though. Retracing every step that you made last night and texting your friends are the only things that can help you, now. Hopefully, you have friends that are more responsible than you, because if not you might just be out of luck.

Am I really that awkward of a dancer?

Why, yes, you are. I know you thought that you were getting it on, on the dance floor, but all of those stares weren't because you were talented. Forget what people think and remember that you killed it at formal.

How many pictures did I really take?

Wow, did I really take 50 pictures last night? Yep. That's okay because the more pictures you have the more you can look back on all the fun that you had. How else will you remember that you rocked your dress and had the perfect formal date? Taking pictures are a must and the best part is looking through them all again the next morning.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
