Eurovision

All right so Eurovision. Oh boy. The Americans introduced our British friends to Thanksgiving so they returned the favor... Eurovision.

Jenny, Sammi, Chris, Matt, Arsenyo, Lindsay, Hudson, and I went to Philippa's flat for Eurovision. She did a very stupid (but fun) thing... we got noise makers. LOL. When we liked a performance, we made it known. It was a fun little party, we started with Pimms and then went on to whatever we brought. Sammi brought home made ice cream, but I didn't have any. No one really did since it was so hard.

Anyway, Eurovision. It's not as much of a talent show as it is a political fun time. You vote for your neighbors and for those who have the most outlandish performance. UK's performance was boring, just a group singing. No fireworks, no colorful costumes... yeah they came in last.

Germany had a bad performance as well and yet they won. The woman's song has sold about a million copies in Germany, but no one in the room liked it. We were yelling at the TV. Iceland's performance was sooo good, but again it's not about talent. Serbia had a man/woman as a singer. Matt and I thought it was a woman, but nooo it wasn't. Sammi was right. Philippa had a great comment, Serbia doesn't know the 80's ended! LOL!. Croatia had a Welch singer so the UK was in it twice. Neither did well.

It such a good night though. Eurovision was a blast and just sooo funny. We stayed at Philippa's a little bit after the show ended just sitting around talking. Good night.

On Sunday, we had a belated birthday party at Amanda's. It was her birthday. We had a Pimm's party. Again, the same crowd was there, just with Tony, Nick and a few of his friends. The weather was nice though it was a little windy so we complained every time the sun went behind the clouds. Happy, happy day.

It was a pretty good and chill weekend. It was good to see Matt and Chris both days since they do live a little far away so they only usually come in for school events. I guess Eurovision was enough of a reason for them to come!
