Party Animal Over Here

Damn it, I forgot again... Kind of. I meant to post something on Tuesday, then I realized that I wasted my night watching Netflix and it was 9:30, and I had to be awake the next morning at 5 o'clock for work. So once again, laziness is my excuse.

At least I have something to post about! I had my birthday party on Saturday! For the first time in my life, I actually wanted to go to a bar. Not for the drinks or anything (well maybe a little), but because it was gaming themed! My first first informed me about this bar in the summer, after she had gone there for her boyfriend's birthday. Since I looked at the website, I wanted to go there too.

We were planning on leaving my house around 3:30 to get there by 5 (we were transiting there, it takes a while). A bunch of us met up at my house so that we could all leave at once. Unfortunately, one of the guests got stuck in traffic because of an accident, so we left about half an hour late. My timing was off anyway, and we got to the bar around 6. Because it's a really small bar, they were already full, with a couple other parties waiting to be seated. We were told it would be up to an hour and a half wait.

Since we were all hungry, we agreed to find somewhere else to eat. Which wasn't as easy as it sounds. We walked around for a while before deciding on this massive restaurant, which was easily able to seat up. They had good poutine. While we were eating though, we got a phone call from the bar saying that they were able to seat us. Yay!

So eventually we got our seats in the bar, and I had a grand total of two drinks and one shot! I think that at least ties my record. Though I took a sip of a couple other drinks, so maybe I beat it. I probably could have had another drink and just felt a buzz, but everyone was getting tired, and suddenly the bills were being passed out, so we all just agreed to leave. At 8:45. pm. I guess none of us are real party animals.

Once back at my place, I found out that my mom was still out at a party at her friend's house. This says a lot about me and my social life. I can't even party longer than my mom. Though in my defense, we did stay up until 1:30 playing a board game.

But of course, the question is probably what did I get? Well for one, I didn't pay for a single thing that day. Everyone else payed for my meals or drinks. So that was nice. I also got a couple beautiful posters from my boyfriend (One of the Shire and one of Ocarina of Time), the collectors box of Legend of Zelda game guides, complete with a shiny gold bookmark and a letter of authenticity, and an IOU to get me the Legend of Zelda Monopoly when it comes available in Canada. Apparently there are more presents, but they were either forgotten at the giver's house, or the giver was unable to make it. In addition, my actual birthday isn't until the thirteen of October.

I would post pictures, I have them all on my phone, but that requires me to remove the pictures from my phone to my laptop. Even though my phone is right beside me, and the memory card needed is within reach, it's still too much effort. Maybe I'll do it later.


I won't do it later.


I'm too lazy.


But all in all, a great night! I don't think I've ever had this many people actually come to a party. At the most, there were eleven people! Nearly twenty were invited, but still! Over half the people came! I call that a success.

Good Weekend

So after my little rant on Thursday, let's have some good news about my life!

I have friends! Okay, so I had friends before, but not many, and definitely not many that shared my interests. I had about two that played Zelda, and of those only one that lived near by. In addition, we're all too lazy to actually leave our house to hang out. So you can guess, these new friends will be willing to leave their house. In fact, they seem to like being away from their house.

First off, they are friends of a friend, so that's how we met. Second, two are guys and one a girl. I've never had guy friends! Not for a very long time. I just get awkward around guys, because I never really know how to introduce myself, or how to admit that I'm probably a bigger nerd than them. A thirdly, they introduced my to Magic, which I've been dying to learn for years now. Brandon Sanderson, my favorite author, plays it, and it sounded like fun.

Now one of these guys is actually my friend's boyfriend, which has been a little weird. But then again, hanging out with anyone of the opposite gender is kind of awkward for me...

So yeah, my whole week since Thursday has been made up of socializing. I swear, I've been out with people more in the last four days than I have for the last month. Apparently I'm not as anti social as I thought, I just needed a bit of a kick in the but to actually plan stuff with people.
