Party reflections

Posted on February 1st, 2004 by Sacha Chua

Had Diane, Dominique, Jerome, Marcelle, Martin, Peppy and Sean over
for dinner and conversation at our house. Tons of fun, although the
conversation was sometimes uncomfortably risque. My sister dominated
the conversation, telling many stories and focusing it on things like
alcohol and school escapades.

I suppose I’m more of a quiet person. I was thinking of having a chess
game and a Scrabble game run simultaneously, although Taboo or Jenga
would also have been acceptable. That said, I learned a lot about
people today, so it also worked out.
