last weekend myself and connie got invited by our friend Caetlyn to her cousins 21st,
the plan was to get a lil hotel room and then go out.
Because we don't like to rush it when we get ready before a big night, and other reasons...
Connie and myself headed to the hotel first.
Packing It Up
great photo connie.. haha
..On the way to the station..just a tad!excited :)
On the left Connies pretty new bag which she will most likely,
take with us to our overseas trip coming up!!
On the ride to the city 50% of our talk involved "omg i'm so hungry" .."nah but seriously i'm so hungry"
"we so have to eat when we get there" ".HUNGRY!" hehe
So that's what we did as soon as we checked in,left our bags there and ran to the closest restaurant.
We didn't literally run..but you get what I mean!
Being in the city everything was just a few steps away which was soo awesome and dream about how great it would be if we lived in the city.
We couldn't decide between KFC Hungry Jacks and Nandos,the whole time we were standing next to this restaurant which looked a lot better and healthier!!
Apart from the birds scaring us and dogs walking too close past connie (haha), it was a sweet spot to eat at.
It was an italian restaurant,next to it was a shop that sold cigars and other equipments to smoke with lol..
and next to that a japanese music store.
The variety just so funny .. only in melbourne!
We couldn't understand what the japanese songs were saying but we ended up singing along and getting the songs stuck in our head on the way back to the hotel lol!
Our powerless fan next to the rusty window.
It was such a nice day not too hot a tad too windy that i had to end up tying up my dress so that I wouldn't have a Marilyn Monroe moment. When we got back we still had a few hours spare before the night begun, so we just chilled on the bed watching TV with our fans lightly blowing on us haha.
Hey, it was better than nothing ok!
...killing some time...
Around 10.30ish we started getting ready.
Curling/Straightening Hair,Lipstick,Mascara,Eye-Shadow...and all those things a girl does.
Before leaving our room the plans had changed about 5 times so we just ended up going to European Bar which was under 1minute walk where we had a drink while waiting for two other friends.
Once they arrived we went to this place called Amber Lounge which was WOAH!
Not the crowd because it was just weird weird with a few nice boys, BUT the music was our kind.
It had a few goood dance songs and amazing rap and RnB including Snoop, and...
for some reason all I can remember is snoop...but there were others I promise, I just can't think of them right now lol :p
Sam & Connie at Amber Lounge
Jess & Nelly
Once we had danced a little at Amber, Caetlyn had arrived with her cousin to the city so we drove back to....EUROPEAN BAR! haha again
us in the car being...well... us!
we always know how to have a good night even if things annoyed us LOTS before we had gone out lol.
we know how to parteh! :]
So back to the european bar where they have a live band and DJ ... and a bit of a too big crowd!
We got back to dancing and then we went to the bar, where we ordered 2 Tequila shots (with lemon and salt of course).
It's a lil italian thing that you throw salt over your shoulders for good luck, so as a joke i did that but straight away I noticed that something was odd. Salt does not easily go up your nose!but having had a few drinks before I didn't pay too much attention, so we continued with the salt on the hand holding the lemon.
Connie is average or maybe a little faster at getting the shots down, me being weak..not so much!
1.we licked the "salt" (I stopped at step 1)
2.drink the tequila
3.suck on the lemon
The stupid bar tender had given us PEPPER instead of Salt!!! I felt sooo sick,well we both did.
Of course the dumb bar tender had a laugh about it,but i would not want ANYONE to ever try that seriously!! eeeeek!!!!!
so there was a left over tequila shot... and you do not!..waste Gold tequila. Connie was brave enough to drink mine too haha what a strong woman!
After another good dance we ended up walking back to the hotel, but because we weren't tired enough we went upstairs on the awesome rooftop our hotel had.
It was pretty big and we had a lookout on the big City lights where we talked and talked about everything till around 5.30am.
It was pretty nice to chill out after a big night until the smell of yummy croissants on a Sunday morning made us huuungry!
And that's when we decided that it was time to get to bed as we would have to wake up at 9am again to check out. Connie had a baby shower to go to, and I was happy to go home and have a rest as i was still feeling sick from the pepper lol.
So I believe I have told you almost every single detail of our different but fun weekend,
hope you enjoyed it.
xoxoNelly
