Halloween 2012 - the one where i was a cat.

Saturday night - oh, what a night! 

The first night I've ever stayed out until 6am. Ever. So, my friend Sarah and I scored free tickets to a Weta Workshop Halloween Party. Big deal. Very big deal. We found out like, 2 hours before it began so we didn't have much time to prepare! 

We started the night at my friend Sarah's flat BBQ which was fun - we took control of the iTunes and played party DJ. We've decided to quit our day jobs and become DJ's. Pretty excited. We then meandered into town and got a drink at one of our favourite bars, Kitty O'Sheas. Kitty plays amazing 90s music all night which is fan-freaking-tastic. The barman, named Charlie, gave us face paint so we then transformed each other into Harry Potter, and "Hermione-Post-Polyjuice-Potion" (remember when she turns into a cat?!).

 

We then made our way through the Halloween crowds (EVERYONE was dressed up, it was crazy) to the Weta Party. Can I just say, what an amazing party! The theme was "Apocolympics" so most people dressed as zombie sports players. The outfits were out of this world (as you can expect from the people who actually work for Weta Workshop...) so I felt like a bit of a chump with my whiskers. We drank corona's and befriended digital designers and the like. We became buds with a dragon who kept hitting people by accident with his wings (I gave him a wing hi-5) and a cool pink bunny.

We met up with Sarah's friend Laura and spent the rest of the night dancing at Electric Avenue, a rad night club that plays 80s and 90s music all night. It's pretty much amazing. I may or may not have pulled some, or all, of my muscles dancing. The Grease soundtrack, yes please. Gangnam style? Okay. Backstreet Boys, Ice Ice Baby, Can't Touch This, Push It, Total Eclipse Of The Heart, ohmygodohmygodohmygod. 

So, when the sun began to come up at 6am, I realised I better drag my drunk ass home. 

Some nights, eh?
