Last night, I broke my 3-year hiatus of abstaining from Halloween festivities, and went the whole shbang: getting all dressed (and slightly slutted) up (and i made my costume this year! took freaking FOREVER but it was worth it), eating free Chipotle, trick-or-treating, and (my first. yes, i’m socially inferior.) partying. (my night: skipping goodsam, chipotle dinner, kennedy trickortreating, chelsea’s postcandy preparty hangingout, ameya’s party, suzanne’s postparty movie hangingout, pooja/maayan’s respective droppingoff, home. gotta love driving.)

I’ve got to say, partying is.. interesting. Well, it’s definitely different than what I expected (which, in my mind, was people sitting on couches and listening to music and drinking beer and talking). Well, I guess I was right about the music and booze and crazy people in outfits parts, but I didn’t expect so many people there. And the lights off/freaking (is this a dance?). And the noise. And the crazy behavior of drunkards. And the smell. And the.. weed? I have no idea what they were doing in the backyard. But it definitely didn’t smell like alcohol.

I think everything that could have happened at a party happened last night, from the vomiting to the fighting to kicking people out (and, of course, the drinking). Other than the 5 minutes of dancing that took place on my part, I can honestly say that I was a wallflower for the entire time. Really, all my insecurities came out - I would NOT leave Chelsea/Maayan’s side for the entire night.

Not going to lie - before I went to the party, my brain ran through some scenarios of what might possibly happen. Getting drunk? Hooking up with someone? Meeting a dark handsome stranger? Who knows. Heh, fanciful thinking!

Well, all things aside, it was an interesting experience. Although, I probably had more fun asking for candy in the cold and going to Suzanne’s afterwards to eat candy/pizza and watch a movie (twilight? hahahaha never thought i’d watch that. although, now i’m considering reading the book! anyone want to lend it to me?)

Oh, Halloween. I wonder what Thanksgiving and Christmas this year will be like.. Just like Halloween, my holiday experiences haven’t been too lucrative (right word?) for the past few years. Maybe things will be different this year?

fanciful wishing..?
