Partying It Up!

I just came back from a friend's party. I must say it was really pleasant, and much better than I was expecting. There was a ton of food, and I even brought the fondue fountain (Thanks Frances!).

I'm used to being the awkward girl who stands in corners, and not being able to integrate myself in groups of people I don't know. I'm so glad I brought my friend because she was so smooth with meeting new people that it made it much easier for me to approach people. All I had to do was to show up by her side when she was talking to someone. (Ha ha!)

This party was completely opposite of what I imagined. I was able to talk to so many people, and so many people were willing to talk to me. I was pleasantly surprised there were even people willing to coach me through pool (the game). It was nice to see some people that I haven't seen in awhile. Because they aren't really my friends, I only see them at certain events.

There was an absurd amount food, and I was simply in heaven as I ate mac and cheese and chocolate covered bananas. I love Jason's mac and cheese... it's just the right amount of cheesiness without it being too cheesy. Does that even make sense? Just trust me when I say the food was good.

I had so much fun that I am looking forward to the next party. Although these parties come far in between, I shall practice my social skills. I want to get over my awkwardness, and be able to speak to strangers without getting nervous. Someday I may even become the life of a party. Ha ha, I can dream can't I?
