Special prom 2004 was an event hosted at Dulles High School shortly after the "real" prom and was targeted toward those who are mentally retarded. I had heard a rumor that one could get hourly credit from volunteering at this event. How could it be? Perhaps a gift from the gods! The rumors were confirmed and I, being in quite a predicament due to procastinating and leaving the "making up hours" process that was the equivilant trade for absences and such and was necessary for me to graduate. Everyone knew also that the school cannot get a portion of "educational fund$," While I'm off playing hooky, and toward the end of the year this artform that my chums and I had mastered was used quite often. It seemed as though it was time to pay the piper. As I remember I was cheated out of about half of the hours i had been promised by the SP2k4 administrator but even so it was hella fun and would have gone even if I didn't have to.....neh, probably wouldn't have step foot on that property if I didn't have to. Aly was also in a similar circumstance as I and accompanied me. We had some milk+ (described in splash screen) and were on our way. When I arrived it appeared as though our plan had been mimicked unknowingly by a couple dozen friends and peers and that made it a blast. There preparations may have varied a bit, but it was an excellent interface for this unusual environment and masses of this flavour of humanoid. I noticed several varient groups that seemed to mimic their own set of archetypes. I remember wondered why such a minority (only aprox. 20-35max) at our school was worthy to such an occasion and I doubted that there would be full attendance. I was relieved to be informed that more of 'em were being bussed in from other schools as well. The food was miniscule but I decided to eat some and later came to know from another student it hadn't been properly kept and my bowels reflected this circumstance later that evening. On a lighter note, guerilla smokeouts were occurring in the restrooms and there was some genuine excitement when participating in one. Since the event was on a holiday (or weekend, cant remember), the school was barely staffed, and that dwindled the usual risk of imprisonment we would have faced. Several teams got some good sessions in. A nice smack to the face of Mr. John Foster Dulles. What an appropriete name for massive prisonlike-hive that we often refered to as the prison camp. I might also add that Dulles when secretary of state imported many nazi officials to powerful positions domestically amongst other evil-deeds, for specifics just type in google: "John Foster Dulles" + nazi

Back on topic: had a blast, interesting behavioral research accomplished with those of different minds. One with verbatim characteristics of Timmy from Southpark was crowned king, and a few managed the energy of the music and active dancers by running laps around the parameter. This event coupled with the "sweatshop" to make thousands of hemp bracelets (workers happilly payed in smokeouts) was the prime factor in me graduating. Come to think of it, a couple tests were determinative as well... With everything just barely pulled off as it was, I wouldn't have wanted my high school conclusionary experience to be any different. Well maybe less cameras and securitrons would be nice... But I remember after confirming all of my final grades were passing and after hunting down specific individuals the hemp deal had been made with.... I had beaten the game. I handed her 2 freezerbags (previously used to store a similar plant hehe) packed with those wretched hemp bracelets. Went back to my economics class where I reached in my bag and ate a special brownie and handlebar and was one with eternity. I sunk into one of my favorite places and had a chat or two with some buddies in the class. With about an hour left till the next chapter of my life, I felt euphoric and limitless.
