The annual Yeongju Halloween party was a roaring success!
I have never really paid a whole lot of interest to Halloween until the giant party we had on the 2nd of November. I ended up going dressed as a fairy, while a friend, Tamrin went as a rag doll - we decided to shelf 2 broke girls until next year.
I cannot in all confidence say that I clearly remember the entire party. Oops.
I remember being at the party and singing my heart out at the Norebang (a karaoke room) till 4 in the morning. However, I honestly cannot remember getting from one place to the other. The general consensus around town is that no one can truly claim to have been particularly sober that evening. Once again I felt very lucky to be a part of the Yeongju foreigner community, every one came, had a fabulous time and dressed the part.
The party had many prizes, ranging from the best dressed to the best lip syncer. I couldn't decided who to vote for, so in my inebriated state, voted multiple times when people weren't looking (hehe). Here are some of the winners (all of the beautiful photography taken by the lovely Lindsay Monk - as Claire was too busy partying)
*Special mention for her fantastic photography*
Best couple:
Kali and Edmond - Frida Kahlo's
Best home-made outfit:
Norah - a blow up man thingie. She made it out of a kids crawling ring!
Best overall costume:
Mel - Edward Scissor hands (with Lindsay dressed as minion from Despicable Me)
Laziest dress:
Simon (nice wig) Good solid effort (Leith as Kim Jong Il the North Korean president)
Best Lip sync
Miley Cyrus - Wrecking Ball
Tamrin (who spent 4 hours traveling down just for the party) and I were so hungover the next day, we only went in search of food at about 2pm. We ended up sitting at an all you can eat Korean BBQ place, trying to sort ourselves out in time to teach the next day. My hangover subsided mid Tuesday afternoon.
Great party! Next Yeongju event - the Movemeber party. Should be fun!
