Cinderella...

Well You thought it all ended with your Matric dance right....you were wrong!

Living in res means that its easier for you to make friends and stuff cause you live in the same house but there are also res functions-lots! from the welcome dinner to the leaver's dinner you will be dressing up atleast every now and then. The problem is whether you have enough dresses/outfits for it or not.

There dinners are usually semi formal and compulsory where as the balls aren't compulsory and are usually much more formal- this is what you could bring your matric dance dress with for...I personally did not want to bring mine. i love it too much lol.

Anyhow just know that your matric dance can be relived in an entire year a number of times. Learn how to mix and match very important! We all want pics of ourselves on facebook but we don't want to be in the same outfit each time now do we?-I wish I'd have learned this earlier not that it wasn't completely obvious- anyhow enjoy your formal events! they are as civilised as night life entertainment could possibly get!
