It's definitely hard to miss all the people where I live pulling out of driveways in dresses and people taking pictures across all the public areas, it really lets you know it's prom time.

What's your experience with prom (or multiple proms if you went to others too)? How did everyone look? How was it celebrated? Was it good?

In a way, you weren't missing out. Where I live, children (myself included when I was younger) have an odd tradition of going to everyone's proms except sometimes our own (or including our own). They vary a lot but it's like you have to really look to find the fun ones. And I'm guessing very few people enjoy the dance part because only a quarter of the people (does not include me) actually know how to dance. A common joke during the dance part is to say "I forgot to study for this".
