So everything is getting sorted out for the party this weekend. I’m a little worried about the amount of people that are going to be in the apartment, but oh well. I figure the cops are going to come for sure given the high likelyhood my neighbours will phone in a noise complaint. As I always used to say, it’s not a party in Paris until the police show up.

Back when I used to have and go to parties frequently my friend Les once had this totally brutal party. My group of friends used to have a great rep for having kick ass parties, so every one was very well attended. Except this one. Les decided he would try and throw a party the day of, so he told a bunch of people at school and hoped everyone would show. Well that wasn’t quite the case. Hardly anyone showed up and the party was just plain terrible, so Chance and I decided to spice things up. I phoned in a noise complaint on the very lame party we were attending. Then we told everyone at the party(aside from Les) and made a point of making as much noise as possible outside his house, just to make sure the cops would come. We were screaming and yelling and Chance managed to get the keys to the riding lawnmower and was doing doughnuts on the lawn at 1am. The police eventually showed up to this terrible party and talked to Les(who was used to talking to the cops during parties given how many parties he used to have) and they just said keep it down and went on their way. Les comes back into the house and proceeds to gloat to everyone about how it wasn’t that bad of a party if the police showed up. Everyone had a good laugh at that.

My costume is almost complete. I ordered an accessory from eBay and am waiting for that one to come in. They assured Halloween delivery, so it should be here given it’s being shipped from Montreal. I can’t wait to try the whole get-up on. I’ll be sure to post pictures afterwards to see the awesomeness.

Does anyone remember the old show "Téléfrançais" they used to show in elementary school? That show was the cats pyjamas! I had to have watched that series numerous times while going through school. I went to frech immersion school from kindergarten to grade 3, so I watched it then. Then from grades 4-6 I went to an English school, and of course given they would obviously be behind in the level of French they taught, I watched it again, so the show was pretty ingrained in me. I want to find a song from that show that was performed by "Les Squelettes" called "C’est L’Halloween". I can find the theme song to the show, but not that song. Corina and I were singing it in the car last week, but i can’t seem to find a copy of it online.
