IT Rockstars and Hairdressing Parties

Pondered by Nat over a year ago

Last night I went along to the second IT Rockstars event, it was remarkably different from the hairdressing event I went to the night before.

Apparently, when in the midst of recession, several businesses have decided that it’s time to party. Either that or IT recruitment and hairdressing are the industries to get into.

The hairdressing party was unfortunately timed after the second body combat class in two days. I don’t recall a lot of it, my entire body was so tired, I sipped at a bubbly, won a massage then went home, flopped on the couch and made my flatmate bring me dvds, blankets and sympathy for the rest for the night.

The IT Rockstars Party was potentially even less fortunately timed after my first personal training session. I felt obliged to make up for all the exercise by downing chicken nuggets by the handful and apparently, despite being one of the slower drinkers in the group, got through a few bubblies as well.

I’m not sure who actually won the IT Rockstar title, but I had a blast in the background. Lessons from the night? I may not know how to create a black hole, I’m incapable of doing just one sit up BUT last night, I learned that I can drink a couple of glasses of bubbly without stopping at BK on the way home. Impressive.

    It was great to run into you there. It doesn’t seem to happen often, but it’s always memorable.

    What a strange event. A guy with a microphone valiantly trying to get everyone’s attention and continually and abjectly failing. The woman with the B52′s hairdo (Amy Winehouse, she corrected me) seemed determined to make sure the sound system is less distorted next year.
