Ok...the party at Helen and Julia's was kinda weird and quiet for awhile but then for an intense half an hour it was the greatest party i've been to in awhile. Right when "One Minute Man" came on everyone went nuts and UIUC happened to come in so people were gyrating all over the place. What was once a roomy living room with lots of dancing space suddenly evaporated into bodies rubbing into bodies. It got incredibly hot and people had to go outside to sit in the hall. Naked neighbors tried to barge in but luckily Jon G stopped them. Helen and Julia provided lots of alchohol so lots of people had fun that night. The party did clear out decently fast when some people decided to go to a block party but for a good hour or so it was quite excellent as apartment parties go.



Invariably, we moved to Palak and Jill's to play Mafia. I must say, we are the Mafia kings. It was fun to play with UIUC but some of them were straight up horrible. They were very fun though (this one dude Pernell was trying to convince everyone that he wasn't Mafia while he was holding his Ace card for all the world to see). I still stick with the idea that Mafia is the greatest ice-breaker ever. I mean, we hung out with UIUC all day long but it wasn't until we started yelling at each other and fearing for our Mafia lives did we even start to get to know them a little. We played all night until the early morn when they decided to drive back to Chicago at six in the morning.



After they left....me, Babbs, Sam, PZ, Jason Story and Palak went to Angelo's. Great idea PZ. I miss the early mornings at Angelo's waiting for the food to come while fighting off the yawns and sleepy eyes.
