That one week in the year that everyone can look silly without getting judged is homecoming week. This past week at my high school was homecoming, for those of you that have no idea of what that is…. It’s basically a week before your annual “homecoming dance” where you have random kinds of days that you dress up for to promote school spirit.
This year we had a week full of random days, Monday was lazy day. Everyone showed up in sweatpants and t-shirts, some people even had flannel pajama outfits, some had slippers, and others footie pajamas, which personally are my favorite because of the fact that you get to look like a 3 year old. Lazy day is my favorite because the whole day you are just so comfortable.
Tuesday was “crayola” day; each class had a color to wear. Seniors got to be black, junior’s white, sophomores yellow, and freshman green. This year I wasn’t very happy with crayola day because the colors weren’t very fun like neon or random color themes like that. They were just all kind of boring you could say.
Wednesday was twin day. Everyone found a friend and dressed exactly like them as if they were real twins. It was fun to see some of the wacky outfits that people came up with. Some people really did look like twins and you could easily accidentally mix them up… which is what I did… oops.
Thursday was cowboy day, now everyone was not happy with cowboy day they all thought it was lame and not a lot of people participated with it. I did and I wore my flannel with pride (: some people even dressed up as Indians, high school has never failed to make me laugh sometimes.
Last but not least Friday was spirit day which meant that later that night was the football game (: Spirit day was easy to dress for, I saw people who literately had their face painted green! I waited later that night for the football game for paint but props to them! They had major school spirit!
The dance. Yes that dance that every girl goes incredibly all out for, and yes it really does happen. The homecoming dance is always a big deal, you have to get the perfect dress with the perfect shoes and jewelry, your hair has to be perfect along with the nails. Let’s just say homecoming is a very expensive event that most girls spend way too much money for. The girl is usually the one that plans everything and makes everything perfect so that night they can feel beautiful and dance their hearts out.
Homecoming is one of my favorite times of the year; you only get 4 of them in high school, so make a memory of it. (470)
