Last June, my friend told me about her plans for our upcoming prom. “I’m renting a stretch limo and spending $1000 on a new dress, and I’ve reserved a table at the most expensive restaurant in town”, she said.

Our teacher overheard her and shook her head, I didn’t spend that much on my wedding.”

My friend answered, “I can have three or four weddings. But prom, you do only once.”
