Last night as I hinted in my last entry, we took Dani out clubbing to celebrate her 18th birthday. The night started when my Dad dropped me and Tiana off at Dani's place where everyone was meeting beforehand for some pre drinks. I was feeling pretty off from the night before so went slow and just had one Canadian Club and soaked in the atmosphere.

Eventually time passed by and the next thing we know is that we are on the 150 heading into Queen Street. The bus ride was mildly entertaining with Benji showing just how comfortable he is with his sexuality by coming onto some dude to try and get him to move away from us on the bus. It succeeded in giving laughs and Benji reclaiming one seat, but failed in that he now started to crack onto Amy and Nani. This time it wasn't me, but Benji who needed to empty his bladder, one stop after we got on.. He however, has amazing pregnant women skills and was able to contain himself until we reached the city.

Upon arriving, our little group which consisted of Natalie, Nani, Amy, Dani, Mel, Michael, Shane, Benji and I heading towards The Victory. We were hoping to see if Dani could get in a few minutes before midnight but after discovering the line was huge, we decided to just walk into the valley. After some really bad Maccas, the group sorta split up on our trek, with Benji, Nani and Amy actually skipping Birdies and heading straight the Mustang Bar, whilst the rest of us listened to an ex-boyfriend be a tosser and get somewhat lost on some streets after a few bad turns. We went to Birdies, which I'm personally not a fan of. After about 10 minutes, I slinked out with Yeatsie meeting me outside. He had just finished a 'work' Christmas party and was pretty smashed and still with a full wallet. Without any hesitation, we headed straight to the Mustang Bar to meet up with Benji, Nani and Amy.

Still taking it easy, I decided to start hard with a Long Island Iced Tea. It went down ok, but just wasn't really in a mood. I recon'd the others from Birdies and brought them to the Mustang Bar. We went upstairs, had a few drinks and relaxed around the bar before going downstairs to the dancefloor. I decided/realised fairly fast that my $40 wasn't going to get me far so I began to scull everything I got for maximum effect. Canadian Club's, Bundy Draughts, Firetrucks and more Long Islands all went down in seconds and then it all started to hit me.

Much crazy dancing and the normal hoorah associated with me, alcohol and the Mustang Bar ensued. Now I'm pretty proud, originally Dani, Tiana, Michael and Mel all wanted to spend lockdown in Birdies, but the good old Mustang Bar charm kept them inside the doors until about 4am where we headed out to the bus stop via the kebab shop and maccas. Somewhere between me not being drunk and 4am, Mel and Shane left early because of reasons I really have no clue about. Eventually we got to Garbo and then Dani and I gave our dad's a call to pick us up. Dani's dad took Michael, Dani, Natalie and Amy back to Dani's while my Dad took me and Benji to Dani's and Nani back to mine.

Me and Benji executed the perfect mission which granted us access to Dani's house. After a few minutes, Benji decided that he wanted to go home to sleep so he ran home at about 5am in the morning. Waving goodbye, me, Amy and Dani chatted for a bit in Dani's room before we all passed out for a good 6 hours or so. We showered and then wandered out to Dani's pergola where all her relatives where arriving to wish her 'Happy Birthday' and sink a few drinks and have a feed.

Benji, Adam, Michael and Cam arrived to make me less of the 'cool girl with short hair' and restore the gender balance. Originally Dani mentioned that there would be drinking involved so Cam arrived prepared with two six packs, one of Canadian Club and other of Premium Woodstock. Cam carried the flag today, downing all his booze and managing to steal a few extras towards the end of the day to quench his thirst. After a lunch of Nandos, salad and fruit, Benji, Cam, Dani, Natalie, Mel and I went for a swim and played a game of 'don't let the other gender get the ball mixed with hot potato' (there is a name for it? 10 points to whoever tells me!) for about an hour, hour and a half. After seeing Mel's ass, watching Cam whale dive and just general ownage by the males, we eventually hopped out ready for the cakes!

After a Aria winning Happy Birthday song, supported by Cam on backing vocals, we downed some cake, and was just generally entertained by Cam's drunkness. The afternoon wound down and slowly people left, including the relatives. The afternoon died down into Benji, Cam, Dani, Mel, Natalie and me watching the OC and taking it easy as were rooted from swimming and the night before. Cam left us about halfway through the episode and continued to drink with Dani's parents, probably giving them all a good laugh.

And that's the story of a girl and how she lost her clubbing virginity as told by someone who was too drunk to properly blog the details of the night. Happy 18th Dani!
