Last weekend saw me attending five parties in a span of 25 hours! I don't think I've done this much partying in my entire life. In college, friends and I would just party for 25 hours, not go to five parties in 25 hours.
Starting the series of party was the birthday dinner of Pingping, my "adoptive" father (I'm counting on the thought that Pingping knows he has adopted me...LOL), after an pleasant eat and run dinner, next stop was monster Friday, the annual birthday celebration of all the August celebrants of UP-PGH "Orthodocs." After a couple of hours, some friends and I went to a bar nearby to lend some support to our musician friends who had a gig there; we went back to monster Friday after watching them play a set.
Saturday was bright and sunshiny. Lunch was with the I Can Serve sisters, the event aptly named ICE - I Can Eat. It was nice to see and catch up with old friends. Even though the "oldtimers" were not really happy to see a lot of new faces, it was nice to forge new friendships. Lunch finally ended around 3!
Saturday night, it was dinner at a friend's house, continuing the birthday celebration of one of the "Orthodoc," highlight of the night was the new rage of Beer Below Zero, where the beer is served ice cold. You can just gulp it down! I lost count of the number of beers I consumed - I think I had six (and I was still holding back - makes me wonder how much I can really drink).
Sunday morning, I slept in, waking up lunchtime with no hangover - yipee! Met up with Olive and Jerome after lunch and just hanged out. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm glad the weekend was over.
