Ugly Sweater Christmas Party

Last Saturday my friend was having her first annual Ugly Sweater Christmas Party at her place, she just bought a house. But this was not an ordinary Ugly Sweater Christmas Party; we had to follow one of the three criteria:

1 – Wear a beautifully ugly Christmas sweater
2 – Bring a bottle of wine or any other form of alcohol
3 – Donate $10, she is running in the LA Marathon and the money will go to Aids Foundation

Since I did not find any ugly sweaters and was too lazy to make one and I already donated, I decided to bring a bottle of wine. I had two bottles of wine and a bottle of vodka, which from a distance looks like wine, it was green vodka so I brought that just because it looked more Christmassy. Oh and since that day I just happen to baking cookies for another friend, because she was going to a cookie party, I didn’t even know those exist. But anyways I baked a little extra to take to the party along with my bottle of vodka.

The party started at 8, I got there around 9ish and of course I’m like the 3rd person there. She had wanted to make the party “classy” so there was a wide variety of cheese and crackers, hence why she wanted everyone to bring wine, to bad I didn’t. But it didn’t matter because there were TONS of wine and as the night progress and more people showed up there were also a few cases of beer, which came in handy.

Some of the sweaters people were wearing were wonderfully ugly, a few of my friends didn’t find anything in the guys section so they got sweaters from the women section, it was hilarious. Eventually the party went outside in the freaking cold (it was around 45 degrees, yes that is freaking cold for us Southern Californian) where the Beer Pong tournament was being held, so much for the “classy” party. I teamed up with a friend of my friend, he was pretty cute and we chatted through out the night to bad was TOTALLY straight…haha we went up against two of my girl friends and yeah we kicked there asses, so they had to drink all of our beers as well. After a few rounds of that we went back inside to have more cheese, crackers and wine. Then everyone started playing Kings and enjoying each others company, many in a drunken state. Just like the good old college days…lol.

Eventually everyone started to leave and only a few of us were left, so we started to help her clean up. It was a brand new house after all and we didn’t want to leave a mess. I was gathering up the bottles of wine and found out that we finished around 22 bottles with 6 or so half full and also finished around two cases of beer. It was one very “classy” party…lol.

Oh and there were a few cuties, but all I could do was look from time to time, many of my friends were there after all.
