How to Choose a Prom Date
The prom is all about having the time of your life. Except for graduation, it's the most important event you'll participate in during high school. You want a date you can share it with and have fun with. It doesn't have to be a boyfriend or girlfriend, either. You can have a great time with a good friend.
