Party Time!

Yesterday we had our house party. Although I had major doubts on our ability to pull it together we actually did it. Our theme was decades, so everyone was expected to dress up as a different decade (I chose fifties...so sad I couldn't find a poodle skirt). As early as last Monday the girls started to prepare. What would we wear? What year should we go for? What makeup should we use? So many decisions! On the other hand, the guys were (on the most part) completely unenthusiastic. Or so we thought. As us girls emerged from our rooms dressed in colorful clothes that were all years out of date, we were surprised to see that they guys had gone just as far out. It's hard to pick a favorite, but I think Kevin's Great Gatsby get up was pretty far up there. The night turned out to be a success. Some highlights were watching my housemates go crazy over karaoke, winning "juice pong" with Anna (don't worry, the most we got was a sugar high), and getting to play dress up again. It's one of those things I don't think I will ever grow out of.
