18/10/13: The ball was amazing. Enough said. Even though everyone could tell we were first years by the way we were acting. Worth the $$$. Gorgeous venue, decent food, music, friendship, dancing, fun, free cloakroom- what more could I ask for. For the dancing, I know, most would be going like: what? Frigid me actually danced?! Well I guess I've changed....for the better or worse. But I'm still a cheapo at heart when it comes to formal dresses - my LBD was twenty dollars. It was passable as formal wear. Hell yes.
And two of my friends got together as well - love was in the air, they're so cute! I also got my hair curled for the first time, thanks to Roo (: It's a weird feeling catching taxis in the city as well but luckily other people paid for the fare to cover
their hotel stay - they're bloody expensive, a two kilometre trip costs
around twenty dollars. All up sixty dollars. NTS: Next time, book a
hotel closer to the venue.
Hotel policy? We broke it (: Managed to fit seven people into a room for four. So bad ass hehe. Saturday morning was a total downer though - we all got up at 7 AM since we had to get back to doing crim due on Monday and others had work later in the morning. Apparently I slapped my friend's arm when she woke me...totally goes to show that
I am not a morning person. I'm a total grump. On the other hand, you know someone's a morning person when they hum in the morning. LOOOL. Anyway, headed off to Hungry Jacks for brekky - cheap and yum. $1 medium cappuchino and two burgers suited me fine.

Shampoos and soaps were so cute! |

Yup, I booked a hotel room! So grown up! Ahhh |

I know we look absurdly oily, but I swear it's just the terrible predominantly blue lighting. |

We've no shame whatsoever in camwhoring in our beautiful hotel elevator which had pretty mirrors. | |

I reiterate: pretty mirrors |

YES YES YES. 1000% agree |
That's an accurate depiction of me when I submitted at 5.46 AM. Nay for Monday 9AM deadlines. Didn't complete 1 question :( I'm not proud of myself. Can't be done in three days.
I solemnly swear... that I am never leaving anything last minute again - no excuses even though there was mooting, the history essay, the ball...I hate past Sweet for procrastinating so much the week before. And yet I'm still procrastinating now! >:( Thanks very much to V for offering (lawful) help when I needed desperate access to databases because of unfortunate circumstances. I still skipped class and did dodgy study for a relatively big quiz in the arvo. Urgh. NEVER AGAIN.
Though I'm really happy with how I'm going so far. I guess it's true that you'll do well when you do something you're passionate about. Anyway that's all for me now, over and out!
