Stripes Are Cool

I ended up taking 12 beers to the party. I didn't drink them all though, in fact I even gave one away! You could almost say I was well behaved. I didn't swear too much, didn't smoke. I did lie a little bit, but doesn't everybody? And they were the fun sorts of lies, the ones that don't hurt anybody but do cause a bit of discussion. You know the ones.

So, yeah, it was a party and I had a good time. It's been a while since I've been in a setting where I don't know too many people but I found that I can still hold my own relatively well. There was quite a crowd, maybe 50 people or so. Everyone seemed to be having a good time at the start, but as always as the night wore on some people started to get a bit down.

The first of them was a young fellow. He was the little brother of one of the people in the house. He was in grade 12 so it was always going to be tough for him. He and his brother had been telling everyone that he was 20 so that he could hit on some of the pretty girls in attendance. He mustn't have felt that he wasn't going to be able to pull it off and decided to drink to ease the pain. This was a beginner's mistake as he ended up puking everywhere and there was a very suspicious puddle near him too. He really didn't look too well at the end and I think that his Sunday was going to be very rough.

One of the other casualties wasn't a physical one, but more an emotional casualty. The story goes something like this. There was a boy and a girl at the party, they weren't together but they had been in the past. Well, the boy decided that he'd bring a new girl to this party so he did. He basically showed her off at the start then got drunk. In doing this he managed to piss off not only the old girlfriend but also the new one. The old one was upset with him because he was basically being a dick, and the new one was upset with him because he was basically being a dick. Does that make him basically a dick? I'm not sure. I didn't mind him, but then again...

There was other stuff that happened at the party, but these were the events I wrote about. The night ended up with me seeing some dude's wang and him laughing at my choice in underwear. I really like them, but it appears that no-one else does.
