recapping, from the very start

10:00am

emma and i go round to the op shop, sift through some disgusting outfits (who the hell buys 2nd had underwear anyway) and go home with nothing :(

12:30pm

meet up at box hole hill with min, watch her chow down a huge big mac, fries and a snack wrap, before realising we lost leah at bubble cup. i leave min to finish her nomz while i run to find leah, who isn't there...and never turned up. randomly found erika (who left her phone at home) wandering around in circles looking for us (lucky). wandered around, bumped into daniel and damien (WHO LOOK SO DAMN ALIKE ITS CRAZY). after looking at a few hairdressing salons, we end up back at the first one. min discovered that dyeing a full head of hair costs $100+, and i discovered that getting ONE streak of blue costs $40. ONE!!! colouring the hair becomes out of the question, and i settle for a cut and wash/style. long hair is no more!

3:15pm

drop round to lisa's house to give her a birthday pressie, come home and i walked to susan's place to show her my new hair&shoes. she loves, i love, we're all happy :) 

5:00pm

totally avoiding homework, making/editing video, downloading photos and procrastinating in general...

5:45pm

min arrives. got her dressed in a tux and made her look like a lesbian/pre-pubescent boy with boobs. i get changed into a flipping DRESS O_O i feel so girly it's crazy. amanda arrives 15 minutes before we leave and hogs the bathroom to do some major stylin...she pulls off male WAYY better than min, with her red bowtie and red chucks :D while that's all happening, the camera's rolling and we freak leah out by catching her on camera. 

gran attempts to fit in

6:30pm

we leave to pick up steph, who gave me an AMAZING drawing!! on the way, we're chattering away like the crazy schoolgirls we are...til we arrive at destination :) told the dude i had a reservation but he just took me to some random table with 14 spots, and the 5 of us sat down and waited for the rest of them to arrive...

7:15pm

waiter asks if we want some garlic bread to eat while we talk/order. i say yes. THREE HUGE PLATTERS OF GARLIC BREAD ARRIVE*. (if you're a melbourner you'll know the restaurant i'm on about when i say the sizings are HUGE!!) i get amused watching noob asians get pwned coz they ordered large sizes thinking that they're small. i order 3 pastas on one platter (bolognaise, carbonara, marina), fritto misto, ricotta and sundried tomato pizza, fries and garden salad. 13 people are fed and watered and happy

8:00pm

food is finished. random lady and random kid do a double take at amanda and min while they were in the girls bathroom. half the table mysteriously disappear. we start having camera wars and probably freaked out the people around us...

i start to think of ordering a cake but the remaining people told me not to (it was obvious at this point that 1) they already ordered cake and 2) the missing people were up to something). waiter ruins the *surprise* by setting down plates and telling me that the cake was coming. cue the chorus of happy birthday x2.

 

missing people arrive....with another cake. 

we eat the new cake, coz it's icecream. cue the chorus of happy birthday, again. another table is also celebrating a birthday. cue happy birthday chorus war x2

8:30

pass the parcel begins....with a twist. who the hell plays pass the parcel with condoms and tampons shoved in between layers of newspaper?! apparently my friends do :) emma got a dare to go up to a random guy and ask him to dance, which she did :P 

the parcel ended with size 24 undies...yum? i got a dare to sing a love song loudly which i did and it got filmed so watch outtt haha

9:00pm

home time, huge cake got split into 4 things and we went home....

9:15pm

afterparty began, consisting of min, lisa, leah, amanda and steph...sad i know. we made a vid for nathan regarding his suit (his pockets are filled with tampons/condoms and the undies), and mucked around in general...now my room's a mess and i never got round to cleaning it and i prolly won't ever get round to it

10:30pm

byebye everyone...cleanup time and goodnight

xo

*note to self - remember to tell the waiter a number/size instead of just agreeing.
