My 15th Birthday Party

9/3/2014

3 Comments

 
Last Saturday was a Saturday to end all Saturdays. In a nutshell, it was awesome. I invited all of my best friends. And all of my friends are a little crazy. I was also going to invite John too, from the engineering conference in Massachusetts, but he never replied to my email.
The guys who did show up were Zachary, Adam, Alex, and Graham. Alex and Graham are my two buds from the middle school Aspergers program. I can tell you firsthand, the public school Aspergers program really falls short in middle school. Were it not for my friends I probably wouldn't have survived. So I owe them a lot for that.

I've usually been the short one of the group, but I'd grown a few inches over the summer, so I thought that that would change.

And for those of you who don't remember from my Freshman at Prom post, Adam is Zachary's friend who's now in college.
The party began with an intense Nerf battle, but pretty soon everyone decided to start shooting at me. It didn't make it any less fun, but it did make it a whole lot harder.

After everyone got tired out, we moved on to the video game tournament. We played a lot of rounds of Super Smash Bros. Brawl on my Wii. For those of you who don't know what that is, Super Smash Bros. Brawl is a fighting game that's a crossover of all the major Nintendo franchises. It's really big in gamer circles, and it was awesome to play with friends.
Adam and Zachary are total masters, Graham is reasonably good, but Alex, my sister and I were just barely surviving for most of it, and flopping around on the screen for a lot of it. I don't actually own the game, so I haven't had as much practice, but I'm asking for it for my birthday, so hopefully I'll be able to get some hours in before my school's unofficial Thanksgiving tournament.

This is what it looked like when Claire, Alex and I were playing.
After that, we had a Back to the Future marathon. I'd never seen it before, and Adam just couldn't believe it. He said that we had to have a marathon some time, and it was my idea to have it with my birthday party.
After the first one, we went out to the dining room and ate pizza. We conversed a bit, and then we had cake. not just any cake, but ice cream cake with angel food cake on the bottom, my two favorite types of cake. Most of us ate one piece, but Adam ate three.
During the second movie, Alex and Graham left, but Adam and Zachary asked to stay and watch the third. But as soon as the second one ended, we realized we didn't actually have the third one. So after a lot of brainstorming, we decided to watch it on demand.
But then the cable box started acting all wonky, and Zachary did what anyone who didn't know my parents well would do.
He asked my parents for help.

Luckily, I was able to get through the ordeal, and watch the third Back to the Future movie. By the time it was all done, it was 11:00. It was the longest party I've ever had.
and one of the best.
...that was AWESOME!!!

I also had a great time inspite of being to old to be allowed into the nerf battle.
