Oh Wednesday Night

Wednesday
Ok, so as usual we all went out on Wednesday. It's the first big night out since we all came back to Uni so it was obviously going to be eventful to say the least, and it was.

Before heading out I, as usual, went down to A-block but things were slightly different. Earlier in the day me and Gem had engaged in a minor dispute about, well, Brad. It all started from me making jokes about Gem and him having a "thing" which they don't but half of the time you think they may as well. At A-block things still seemed a bit tense so I just sat in Ben's room playing X-men and left Gem to Gem like stuff.

We eventually got out to the union and the fun finally began. I hit the shots bar with Lee (huge man and can hold his alcohol) and we went for 5 shots each of the apple sours. They're really nice and really easy to down so the 5 caused no problems for either of us. Then Lee "torpedoed" a bottle of Reef and was, officially, off his face.
Then, while standing at the shots bar me and Ben saw something horrible. A fate far worse than death. We saw... Carrie. Luckily we managed to avoid her (we turned out backs to her - dumbass) and then we went to dance.

Dancing lasted quite some time before I left the dance floor, only to return when I heard the sound of the Vengaboys (which Amy & Gem sang to me on Monday night) however I arrived just as the song was ending. Alas poor me... OK, so it was a lucky escape. I couldn't hadle that torture again :p
Then I saw Gem leave the dance floor and head off as if she were going downstairs. I was intruiged. It isn't like her to often leave the dance floor alone in general but when she goes downstairs then I know something's up... Or maybe she was just texting. Yeah, it was the latter. Anyway, we stood on the stairs for a while and we engaged in a conversation about falling and if one of us fell would teh other catch us. Of course I'd catch Gem and she said she'd do the same for me. Then we also talked about crying at Uni. I've seen Gem cry, she's never seen me cry. I do, just not in public. I'd rather keep whatever pain I'm feeling to myself.
Anyway, we both headed back to the dance floor before me and Ben went to get some food from downstairs.

When we were waiting for food some girl started asking me loads of questions about where I was from and my family. It turns out she went to Rosehill with my brother... yey? I didn't give a shit to be fair.
After food me and Ben went upstairs and looked for Gem. Couldn't find her anyway. But what was this? A girl was wedged between little irish Ronan and Brad... Yeah, that was Gem. Me and Ben follwed shouting her name but she ignored us so me and Ben formed our own unit - TP & Ben Unit. We didn't really see anyone after that, other than seeing Gem with lil Ronan again, so me and Ben decided to dance on our own.

The last song of the night was "I've Had The Tiem Of My Life" from Dirty Dancing so me and Ben took it upon ourselves to dirty dance togather - I was Baby and he was Jonny (the characters from Dirty Dancing). We were going to try the lift but decided we need less alcohol and more practice to do that. As we danced I noticed there was a huge gap of no one between us and everyone else - like we were being weird or something. It made us chuckle. We owned the dance floor.

Me and Ben then went outside and sat on the wall, promptly to fall off said wall onto the gravel below. It was funny. So there me and Ben lay waiting for anyone else. Gem came out with Brad and even though we shouted her name she ignored us and walked off with Brad, so me and Ben decicded to shout after them "B-B-B-Brad Unit". Not sure how weel that went down but when you say there's nothing going on and then ignore two of the people you're living with next year just for this one, nothing special, guy we're entitled to our jokes.
Then some guy came over and stole Ben's shoe so Ben ran after him, takled him to the floor and then we both walked home, all shoes accounted for.
