So many parties…
What a mid-semester break… after my birthday, there was Farah and Chandri’s joint “birthday” party… never mind that both of them have their actual birthday in August. xD
Now, that was on the same day as the ChocSoc exec pre-AGM “lunch” (afternoon tea / dinner?). I realised that the only photos I took were of food. xD Then again, the seating arrangement at the place wasn’t really that good for photo taking.
Afterwards, when it was time to head to the party, I did the usual “see you there” thing. (Well, for this one there isn’t another way. I can take my bike on a train but not on a bus.) I got there first anyway. xD Walking to the bus stop and then waiting for the bus takes almost as long as it took me to ride to the party. I would’ve got there even earlier if it wasn’t for the way the numbering works on Oxford St.
Here I am with the two “birthday” girls.
Funny how when Farah went out to look for the other ChocSoc execs, she was stopped by people in the nearby makeup shop where there was some kind of VIP party. They did her makeup for free, and she got a free hug too.
The decor of Fringe Bar is quite interesting. I don’t really like having too many candles around though.
Here’s the glasses crew. All that stuff about glasses, all because Zinah got new “lesbian librarian” (as well as many other adjectives – reminds me of X-bar theory) purple glasses. I wear contacts now, so I don’t get to join in.
We got quite a lot of random pizza towards the end. There was a lot of cheese on the pizza. Yay cheese!
Yay for sharing drinks too.
Quang’s party on Saturday was another chance for us to share drinks. There’s a drink called “Sexual Chocolate”. I suppose this is the kind of name that Donna and Zinah would probably call “scandalous”. xD (Well, Quang made a joke about it when Avari said she wanted to try this drink.) The other kind of drink that also has chocolate is the Black Forest. Now, we ChocSoc execs have to try both.
The best way to try out different drinks is… communal drinks! xD The one that Avari and I were drinking is the Sexual Chocolate. Donna’s one is the Black Forest.
Don’t remember why Avari was so happy. Drunk, maybe? xD
Here’s a nice group photo of Avari, Zinah, and Donna.
Yay, let’s hold hands! xD
Hmm, Avari, Donna, and Zinah seemed to have got all the spotlight. What about the birthday boy? Oh, there here is, blowing out a candle. xD
Well, I guess Quang doesn’t get to keep the spotlight for long. Donna and the other girls linking arms and rocking side-to-side can be interesting to watch.
The big picture doesn’t look as funny.
Dotto carries Zinah’s bag. Interesting pose there.
Way to walk into this photo, Avari.
I guess all that jumping around and rocking must’ve been exhausting. Falling-asleep corner?
Since everyone is getting tired, it’s time to give Quang his present. Look at the reaction on his face! xD
Time for a group photo! What a party.
It’s now Sunday. Daylight saving has started. I remember looking forward to daylight saving every year since I moved to Sydney, but this year it was just “oh, daylight saving starts again”. Just another sign I’m drifting away from IRC. As much as I like parties, I do miss IRC when I don’t get to be online. Well, I guess I’ll just have to wait until summer when I can be on IRC more often.
