It's 21st season at the moment - I have an invite for at least one every weekend (an invite doesn't mean I end up going though >.>)
  However last night's set the standard - I don't think there'll be another that can be as fun
  My friend is Cambodian, and I don't really know whether turning 21 is a big thing in their culture...
  It was seriously like a wedding - there was 200+ people, a band (singing in Khmer I think), a professional photographer, an 8 course Chinese meal...
  Speeches - complete with singing from his grandfather, father, high school friends and uni friends...
  And EVERYBODY DANCED
  As in, 50 middle aged cambodians all just got up and start doing some Cambodian dance
  They looked so graceful and all of us young people were in hysterics trying to learn/imitate

This is what one of the dances looked like, it's apparently called the ramvong (yay Google). There was also one which kind of looked like the nutbush...

Wow. That sounds almost like a Philippino 18th! It's this huuuge thing. I went to one once, but that was before I knew how to have fun in a social setting (yes, I learned this between 19 and 21...) so I was mostly unexcited.

Haha, nah, I just hung out with my friends all night and all the Cambos did their own thing. Plus, I'm a terrible dancer - I couldn't pick up any of the moves. xd
