a.k.a Gina's party
Saturday night was Gina's birthday party! It was much more fun than Spy's party was... Actually, as far as parties go, they both were terribly unsuccessful, but I had lots of fun in both of them.
Back to the party. I didn't dress to formally, because Gina had said she only invited Yanna, Va, that boy me and Va like, his best friend, and 2 other people. So, I figured we'd be pretty casual. Five mintues before I left home, Gina called and said that the party will "open up" (she actually said something like "the party became foreign-gathered", which is a nonexistant phrase even in Greek), and that many more will come. I was expecting some sort of wild party by the way she put it.
The party began at 6pm, but the first person apart from me and Dina (a very good friend of me and Gina) arrived at 7:30. Gina was terribly dissappointed. The people that came were all annoying, unknown or quiet, and they all left at around 10. Actually, Yanna Va and the other 2 left after 3 quarters, which was extremely rude if you ask me. Plus Yanna acted all stylish, and that annoyed me, because she was really badly dressed. And that said from someone who has made terrible dressing mistakes before.
So, on to the good stuff. Me and the first person that got at the party (apart from Dina) started a drinking competition with Coke mixed with whiskey. We drank two large glasses of it (I won both times, yay me!), and then Gina's new boyfriend came with his best friend Ted. Ted came and joined as in our blissful drinking (and very occasional smoking - I don't usually smoke, and the other guy that I was drinking with never smokes because he's an athlete, but we both smoked that night). We drank a can of beer after that (the athlete boy won there, because I spilled half my beer by mistake). And then Gi's boyfriend brought ouzo.... I've never drank ouzo before, because I always thought it stinks. Well, with all the smoke in the room (Dina was smoking like a chimney!), I could barely smell it, and Ted was all "drink up, Alexia, drink up", so I drank about 4 glasses of it, both me and NTR (the athlete). I got dizzy, and NTR got totally drunk right then. SO we stopped our competition and went in the main room (all this happened in the kitchen - the "punk" area of sorts), and danced a bit. Then Gina came with a Gordon's Space for her, and I asked her to bring me one as well. I drank it like water (after the ouzo, it was exactly like water), and then drank some of Gi's too while she was in the bathroom.
After that, I went back in the kitchen to check on Dina, who acted like she had been drinking all night (she only drank some whiskey)< so me and NTR got worried. But Ted kept pushing me to drink (I later realised he had his reasons - not that I cared, I knew he'd end up with Dina, they all do), so I drank 2 more glasses of ouzo. Ted insisted on a third, but I threw it in the sink when he wasn't looking. But NTR drunk it, and he became completely lost, all singing and stuff. It was thne that me and NTR decided to get Dina home coz she looked sick. Ted joined us. The funny thing was, nobody had realised I was drunk.
When we got to the road, they finally understood I was wasted. I was totally conscious of my state, but I couldn't help the way I walked. I fall on walls and stuff, so thne NTR had to hold me until we reached the avenue. He then had to go, becuase his house was far and the last bus was passing right then. When he left, Ted took us to the coffee house/creperie near the bus stop, where he bought as turkish coffe to "un-drunk" us. Dina refused to drink it, but I drank it. I burned my tongue badly while doing so, though. When I reached the end of the coffee, it made me sick (I hate turkish coffee, I don't know why I drank it), so I... I kind of... threw up in the shop. It was so embarrasing!!!
But by doing so, I actually got better, so then we called Gina and Yannis (her boyfriend) to come over, and we went for a walk, then over to Dina to ask her mother to let Dina sleep with us. In the end, we went back home, where Gina went to the kitchen with Yannis, and Dina in the bedroom with Ted, and I was left in the living room with water and the radio playing the most depressing greek songs I've EVER heard.
The rest was pretty boring... The boys left at about 4-5pm, and then we went in the bedroom, chatted a bit, and then we slept.
I actually didn't want Dina to stay with us, and neither did Gina. But it happened, so... Well, it was really enjoyful until the part where Yannis and Gina joined us near the coffee shop. Then it got depressing, because they all paired up and I was all alone. Really depressing. But it's not like I could do what Dina did. Well, she's seen Ted once before too, but well, still... I don't know, maybe I'm safe to say this because it didn't happen to me, but I don't think I'd go do it like that. Especially coz I was mad at Ted because he got me drunk. But he is a good guy in general, he was really helpful with the throwning up thing. And I just realised that he payed for the coffee I drank... I have to pay him back! Uh, great, now I feel even more embarrassed.
To wrap it up, now my stomach is a mess, and I've been wanting to throw up ever since the first throwing up. And my tongue is killing me. But I just drank Coke with whiskey a few minutes ago. Before you start screaming, my grandma said I should drink some Coke for my stomach! She didn't mention any whiskey in it, I must admit... Ok, ok, I know I havne't been very good, but we all make mistakes sometimes. I promised myself I'll not smoke or drink ouzo until New Year's Eve. I'll drink some ouzo then. But I won't smoke. I made a mistake, I smoke a bit too much these two months (I smoked in Spy's party for the first time, and I've been smoking about 3 cigarrettes a week since then. But not every week. I didn't smoke anything for one whole month, and some weeks I might smoke only 1. Or none.), but I won't smoke anymore. It's not like I liked it so much I was addicted to it, it
s just something to do when you are bored, I guess. Plus, I feel very guilty for making NTR drink and smoke, because he'd never do that on his own, and now the girl that liked him (they'd make the perfect couple) doesn't want him anyomre because he smoked and got drank. If I only found the person that told her!!!
Ok, that's it. From now on, check me. Check my posts. I won't drink (ouzo) or smoke until New Year's Eve. And maybe I will not drink AT ALL till New Year's. Ok...
