Partying, partying, yeah!

It's Friday, Friday, fun fun fun. However much you hate on this song and sue Rebecca for bleeding ears, it is strangely appropriate for a large number of situations. For example this one right now, today is Friday,yesterday was indeed Thursday, tomorrow is Saturday and we, we so excited.

Hey y'all how's it going? First high school party? Check! By the way, whoever thinks that nerds can't go to a social gathering, behave like morons, break their heels and still manage to dance for two hours, is wrong. If you know someone who thinks that, you can tell him from me that he's an idiot. 

As the more perceptive of you might have realized, today, for a change, I was not at home counting the number of atoms in a mole of hydrogen and pretending to like it. I was at a freshers' party my super cool seniors threw us and it was awesome. The crib was sweet (LOL, I said crib), there was food, alcoholic drinks, non-alcoholic drinks and also very loud music. The speakers were kind of whack, which was sad, but on the whole it was really, really fun. Also, alcohol is a jerk who pretends to be nice to you and then stabs you in the back. I had around two sips of whiskey, to try it, and I am never, ever doing it again. Ever. When you can have that much fun sober, why, why would you get drunk?

I am extremely tired and my ankles hurt, so stop expecting funny things. Just read this list, mutter angrily for a few minutes and then watch this video. It will make everything all right again.

The Five Types of Party-Goers

 (Based on One Night of Research)

 (You Can Tell I'm An Expert)

 (Just Read the Freaking List):

Numbuh 1. The texter: This kind always comes in pairs. They're the ones who feel a little awkward/ shy, or immeasurably superior, and spend the night leaning against a wall, their thumbs moving over their phones at roughly the speed of light. Occasionally, their eyes will drift towards the dance floor longingly but then they continue their mute virtual conversation, with the person standing next to them.

Texter 1: Dude, this party is so lame.

Texter 2 IKR!!

Party Animal Scale: 1.

Numbuh 2. The guy: He's the one who looks at all the shaken booty on the dance floor and retreats as fast as he can in the direction of the food. Occasionally, some girl will try to drag him into the festivity, but with whimpers of protest, he will extricate himself again. Manly whimpers of protest, of course.

Party Animal Scale: 3.

Numbuh 3. The dancer: The only person on the dance floor whose not just jumping up and down whooping. When the circle is formed, this person is always in the centre, just being awesome. This type is extremely important at the start of the party, but as soon as the jumpers and whoopers stop feeling shy and turn their swag on, they take a major step out of the centre of attention. Hot tip: if you're standing on the floor and have no idea what to do, don't try to imitate this dude. Even the soft lights of the party area will fail to conceal your shame.

Party Animal Scale: 7.

Numbuh 4. The couple: Again a pair, obviously. "The couple" behaves as a single unit, generally keeping away from the crowd. Occasionally however, they are dragged into the middle of things and ruthlessly forced to slow dance. The couple prefers to take the party at a slower level, natural habitat: quiet spots on the lawn or on the staircase. 

Party Animal Scale: 5.

Numbuh 5. I can't think of a decent name for this last type. If anyone thinks of one, they can post it in the comments and I will update this, along with credits. Extra points for rhyming and/or mentions of cupcakes. The vast majority of people fit into this last category. These are the ones who can do loud and rowdy, and do it all night long. They're just having Fanta-drinking competitions (Chug! Chug!), climbing on each other's shoulders and having thumb wars, enacting 'Set Fire To The Rain' and dancing all night long because yolo, and they know the weekend only lasts for so long. 

I'm gonna give these people a ten for obvious reasons. Before I go, shout-out to Jerome, previously mentioned here. If you're reading this blog Jerome, you're an inspiration and an example. Also, for horrifyingly good cupcakes, check this out: Mermaid Bakes. This is my cousin's thingy that she does, so I get these insanely tasty confections for free. Be jealous, be very very jealous. It's back to atoms and the Pythagoras Theorem tomorrow, but whatevs, TGIF.

P. S. To everyone who remembers Codename: Kids Next Door, high-five 90's kids! Nigel Uno all the way. Peace, you suckers who spent your entire childhoods wishing you were Numbuh Six.
