The Awesome (?) 80's

I don’t think I’ve ever been to a fancy dress party in my 20 odd years of existence. Sad huh? I never realized how fun it was to dress up to a specific theme. It was YT and Rina’s 30th birthday bash and it was all 80’s styled. I had little clue of what fashion styles reigned throughout the 80’s so I decided to look some up. It was awful…so awful that it was almost unbelievable that people actually wore what they did. Anyways, I couldn’t bring myself to dress in acid colors so I did the 80’s my way. To my surprise…it turned out all right.

The party was really fun, but half the guests that turned out didn’t bother to dress up and that was quite disappointing. But, I’m glad to say that all the CG members were a perfect picture out of the 80’s! Those who didn’t make an effort to dress up got punished (of course!) and were made to eat a horrible concoction of all the leftover party food including the cake and some extra condiments from the kitchen. During the games, some of us were rather blur during the 80’s trivia as we were probably too little to remember what we watched…with my exception of MacGyver. Our lack of TV Trivia knowledge was fortunately made up by the rest of the party guests who mainly grew up during that period of time.

Happy 30th YT and Rina. It was a blast! Now, I wonder what a Medieval or Monster themed party would be like…Hmm…
