My Bedroom

So I got invited to a New Year's Eve party at a friend's (using the term loosely) house on my street, and I didn't want to be rude and say no, so instead I just made Lily and Georgia come and stay with me over New Years and come with me.

Anyway, so it was a dress up party (isn't that what Halloween is for?), so we had to find costumes as well. We thought we would go as a trio from something, so we had a massive brainstorming session to come up with a theme. We thought we could go as Three Witches at first, but then we figured that was a bit too Halloweeny. Not to mention a little cheesy, considering the circumstances. So we ended up going as Josie and the Pussycats in the end. Lily was Josie, obviously (red hair, duh), and was Melody, so Georgia has to be Valerie, because, even though she's Mediterranean and not black, she's still the darkest and is a brunette.

Anyway, then they were both teasing me about how appropriate it was, because there's always guys following Melody around in the show, and acting all dazed when she's around or something. Which is totally not fair. It's not my fault, I was born this way. Literally.

Anyway, turned out that wasn't the best idea ever, because when a part Veela Witch walks into a room full of Muggle boys in a leopard print leotard and not much else, it's not so much good news. It was super embarrassing, and I'm not really sure what I was thinking. Regardless, I don't think my neighbour will be inviting me to anymore parties.

Why me, honestly? Why couldn't it be someone else who wants to be part Veela? Because I don't want it! I just want to be normal!

Anyway, we had fun at least, and got to spend New Years together. Back to school on Sunday!
