Frosh Formal: Making us feel like we are in high school and then making us realize that college is so much better.

We had Frosh Formal last night, a formal dance for freshman. We all got dressed up and headed out for a fun evening of dancing. It is very much like prom or homecoming in high school. With a few differences.

• There was this beautiful entrance to the dance. A red carpet! 
• Most people don't have dates to Frosh Formal. So it is much more about your friends and dancing together and having a good time. There was actually very little grinding at the dance. Everyone was just with friends and having a good time. 
• Frosh Formal is less expensive. At my high school, tickets were about $30 a person for the dances. HA! I paid ten. (I don't think college students would ever be ok with $30 / person)
• Dinner is free. Dinner in the dining halls :) haha or many of us went to Shabbat for dinner at Hillel, which means it was completely completely free, meaning my parents hadn't paid for it on my meal plan. 
• Frosh Formal has food. In high school, sometimes there wasn't even enough water (no water fountains and they ran out of cups for the water coolers and you couldn't bring your own water because it might be alcohol). Frosh Formal had lemonade and water and didn't run out of cups. Plus, there were cookies, brownies, cupcakes, and chocolate covered strawberries all night long. 
• The DJ was awesome. He did a great job of mixing older music and newer stuff. In addition, mixing main stream and well known music with some other stuff as well. Also no repeats. It was great. The music was perfect for dancing :)
• The decorations were great. There was a projector showing pictures of Venice (the theme was Venetian Masquerade) as well as white tablecloth covered tables with roses on them. Set the mood for Gangnam Style really well. (Yes, that was sarcastic). 

I am sure I will think of more awesome things to say about it, but that is all I have for now. So here are some pictures. There may be more to come as well.

Just me.
