Party Night

    
     Today is Thursday, the building, GSS we will call it, is filled with people. There is a party tonight, I am standing outside of GSS with my friend Caleb and we can hear techno music playing inside. There is a girl outside of GSS that is so drunk she can hardly stand, we will call her Ditzy. The bouncers keep having to hold Ditzy up and keep her from falling. I go ask the bouncers if GSS accepts credit cards, when I ask Ditzy nearly falls on me, although I catch her and put her up against a wall, she falls after I let her go. A man comes and helps her stand back up and then pins her shoulders against the wall and tries to talk to her and get her at least a little sober, but to no avail. The man becomes frustrated and throws the girl over her shoulder and takes her a little ways off and gets her to sit down as he calls the police. Caleb and I then go inside and walk to the dance floor and meet up with our friends Sandra and Sara. Everyone is where glow sticks and bright colors. The DJ and the dancers on stage keep throwing more and more glow sticks and beach balls into the audience. We dance for a little bit and then Caleb grabs my shirt and pulls me a few feet away where there is a fight pursuing. The men are rolling around on the floor and Caleb and I start laughing and watch the buffoons make fools of themselves. There are many people watching the fight as they roll of off the lip of the dance floor and onto the carpet. Security show up and pull the buffoons apart and escort them outside. After they leave everyone gets back to dancing, when the music hits "the drop" everyone starts jumping and fist pumping. This happens multiple times over the course of the night. Around two in the morning the DJ stops playing and the party stops. Caleb and I join with our other friends Scott, Andy, and Gabriel. We get into Scotts truck and go back to the dorms where we meet a group of four people, their names were Angel, Isaac, Jessie, and Steven. After talking to them for about ten minutes they asked us if we wanted to go drink, we said sure. Then we went back to Steven's dorm room and he had a mini fridge full of Bud Ice and a bottle of Vodka. As we all drank the night got funnier and funnier, and we would always laugh at really stupid things such as: the door opening and accidentally hitting Isaac in the ankle and me missing my chair and falling on the ground. After we drank we started playing some video games, and then around five in the morning I decided to go back to my dorm. I bumped fists with all of my new friends and left.
