Assignment 21- Kaylyn Torkelson

At this very moment, somewhere in the universe, some high school girl is shopping for a prom dress. Amid rows and rows of bagged dresses, faintly reminding a patron of full cadaver bags strung up on hangers and left to rot, females hustle around, searching frantically for the "perfect" dress. Because obviously, there is only one dress per person in the world that can properly suit the occasion. One wonders if its really worth it- waiting in lines of anxious, worried teenagers trying to see if the dress of their dreams fits. And if it does, is it really worth spending four hundred dollars for a dress you're going to wear for a maximum of five hours? I'm pretty sure highly-paid call girls still cost less than that. And they're not going to hang out in your closet for three months. So maybe the prom dress hunt is a little outrageous. But at least we all do it together?
