First Cali Halloween

I had my first Halloween weekend in Cali! My classmates and I decided that since we haven't had a chance to really do anything, that we would go big for Halloween weekend. Well, of course we don't know where to go or what to do. So we asked some of the people who work at the school for their suggestions. We ended up hanging at one of my classmate's apartments until about 11, and then we grabbed a cab and went to Hollywood.

I was the only person in our group of eight who was dressed up. I was wearing my afro wig and my lime green and white terry cloth, warm up suit. I had my knee high socks on and my converse. I was mighty 70s, if I don't say so myself.

So we were walking down the street, not knowing where we should go, when I saw two bouncers. You know me; I look for opportunities to present themselves. The rest of the group was walking past these guys, but I stopped and asked them about the bar. I asked if there was a cover charge, and the guy said, "Normally. But it's free for your group." Done and done. A guy stopped us at the door and asked if we paid, and the bouncer said that we were on the house. One of my classmates told me that he was going to view me differently from now on. Not sure what that means, but, Okay. We ended up having a great time in the lounge.

Saturday night, some of the acting students rented out a room for karaoke in Korea town. So we caught a cab down there and did some singing. I was a vampire, schoolgirl. I love my fangs, and will probably wear them every opportunity I get. A few of us left karaoke and went to a club at the W Hotel. We got there and the line was terrible, not to mention that the club was maxed to capacity. So we decided to go to the lounge in the hotel. Do you know that these people had the nerve to say that on regular days there is no cover, but because it was a special occasion, the cover was $50. Yeah right! So we walked back to the front and were trying to figure out what to do, when this guy walked up to me and asked me to come with him. I looked at him for a second and realized he was just walking 10 feet away. So I went. And he handed me three wrist bands. He told me that he and his friends had just come out of the lounge and they just wanted to pass their wrist bands along to someone else. So we popped them right on and walked right in to the party. CRAZY! That place was ok. It was not $50 worth of fun, but it was worth the $0!

Today, I am laying in bed, and doing about 12 hours worth of homework. I really want to clean my apartment, but I don't know when that's going to happen. I know that you're thinking it could have happened this weekend if I would have stayed in, but I needed a break. Haha. It was worth every minute of it! Hopefully I finish this homework at a reasonable hour. I have a couple of Netflix to watch.
