Happy 18th birthday cong. We did some crazy things, we did the usual things. For the first time, the food amount was just right, though a bunch of the satays did become carbonized into cancer-on-a-stick. Food was good, company was even better and the place wasn't in that big of a mess this year.I didn't quite appreciate the soccer watching, I mean, it's a boring sport where the ball gets reset into the centre, over and over. Some of them enjoyed it, and I think that's fine.
They started drinking at about 1-ish, didn't join them because my head was already threatening to split without alcohol, so I went to bed early.
Jesus, couldn't sleep, not because of the noise, but I just couldn't. Either way, I had the shock of my life when like 6 people barged into the room, switched on the lights and started smelling of alcohol. What's bad was that I nearly drifted off to sleep before they came in.
Good god. I flared up and told them "How about getting the hell out of the room?"
Rofl. Headaches and sudden awakenings are not fun. I was pretty much in limbo for the next hour or so, and Sly kept knocking on the door, which I heard but somehow couldn't get up to open the door. Then he started turning the doorknob which I thought was the sound of raindrops. Seriously, it sounded damned similar so I just ignored it. Poor guy had to sit out there for like half an hour.
I missed the highlight of the party, and missed the after-party breakfast customary of most gatherings at my place. But all's good so long as they had fun. Back to reading my Time magazine.
