Long Live the Queen (and King)

Prom Queen Amber O’Connell

Did you campaign for prom queen, or was it a surprise?
No, it was more of a surprise.

Did you ever dream of being prom queen when you were younger?
I didn’t really think about it until now. I am still really shocked.

What would you change about prom?
At my mother’s prom, they served dinner, and I think that would be really enjoyable. Also, I would like to move it somewhere cooler, like the children’s’ museum.

What are you going to do with your crown?
I’ve kept it on a shelf in my room.

How has your life changed since becoming queen?
I have received a lot more friend requests on Facebook.

What do you plan on doing with your title?
I plan on sharing it with everyone!

Prom King Rafael Miranda

Did you campaign for prom king, or was it a surprise?
I told people to participate no matter who they were voting for, and after they voted, a lot of them said that if they might not have voted (had I not told them to).

Would you change anything about prom?
No, it actually was a really great prom. The theme was set up rightly with lights and ornaments (piñatas)and especially with DJ V, who did a great job choosing and letting other people choose music, which helped make prom more exciting and fun!

What is the one thing you would say to your subjects?
Let them eat quesadillas!

What are you going to do with your crown?
I will display it next to a chile piñata.
