My Take: By Taylor McClure

My Take: By Taylor McClure

My prom was almost a decade ago but if feels like yesterday. I remember my date rented us this old school car to take to prom, but it ended up raining that day and we had no windshield wipers. Thankfully my best friend’s mom was able to lend us her Mustang. It was my first time wearing high heels and I spent $60 to wear them for a whole 60 seconds; as soon as I walked in the building those heels were off my feet and I was barefoot on the dancefloor. Oh, let’s not forget that I was working a dead-end job that didn’t have the decency to give me the weekend off for the only prom I would ever experience. I partied all night only to work all day but it was worth it. Every obstacle, every mishap, it was all worth it.
