Last Saturday, I went to a birthday party organized by a friend of mine. It was her 28th birthday, so she decided to celebrate it in a different way. The only thing you could not forget before going to the party was the costume. Yes, the costume was a must. You could not show up at the party in normal clothes. You had to be
dressed up in a funny way.
It was hard for me to choose which character or animal I would be because I was not accustomed to going to this kind of parties. But, in the end, it was worth the effort. After too much thinking, I made up my mind with regards to my outfit. I decided I would be a ladybird.
The worst part of all was when my sister, my aunt and me had to get into the taxi. Oh, my goodness. I was so embarrassed. I felt as if I had made the wrong decision. Anyway, when we got to the saloon and we started to see the rest of the group, we could not stop laughing. Moreover, some of them had their faces painted so we did not recognize each other at first.
After a time, it was time for karaoke. Again, laughter was inevitable. Up to this moment, shame was no longer around. We sang or tried to, broke some glasses, and performed some kind of musical show. A couple of drinks were of great help. I think through the effect of alcohol we were able to release and do things that we would not do in normal life. Then, we danced all night long.
In the end, it was a good idea. The costumes, I mean. We enjoy and could pretend we were somebody else. Some of us were magicians, some bugs, others angels, the devil or even priests. But there was one thing that united us all: happiness.
