A Disgrace To Bloggers Everywhere

It's been a whole sodding month since I've written on the blog.  Talk about pathetic!  I would take some time to try and blame it on some excuses, but the fact that I had a run-in with four unicorns that needed grooming and have had a Demon called Tritus take refuge inside my mind and body for the last month, but I don't want to go into all that.

Last I left you, it was the 8th of March, meaning you have not heard of my 21st birthday shenanigans and tomfoolery.

21

Pong

So, as you know, in America, the drinking age is 21.  Here, the drinking age is 18.  Therefor, I had already been fairly accustomed to drinking in legal establishments for some time now. I also didn't expect much to come out of turning 21 in England.  However, most of the people said that I would still have a good night, and indeed I did.

The plan was to go to the Students Union, as the theme for the night was Disney. So of course everyone was wearing costumes.  I found a cheap outfit at the local thrift store.  It was a 7-9 year old fairy costume.  I thought I could fit into it, and so I bought it and ended up going as Tinkerbell from Peter Pan.  It was going to be a good night.  Some friends came over to our flat, also dressed up as characters such as a Alice In Wonderland, a Lost Boy from Peter Pan, Woody from Toy Story, and the Mad Hatter.  I introduced them to 'Beer Pong' and American Red Party Cups, which they don't get over here.  

After some successful pre-drinks, we made our way to the Student's Union.  Unfortunately, on the way there, while trying to jump over these anti-vehicle posts known as bollards, I managed to rip the tights I was wearing as Tinkerbell.

But that wasn't going to stop me.

No Sirree!

Soon I was getting complements aplenty on my costume, and had plenty of people getting me drinks.  

All in all it was an awesome night, and I woke up the next morning feeling wonderful!

I promise there is much more to follow!
