Party time!

Thursday, the 8th of April, 2010.

At 5:00pm, I left my house with my sister in my car. Our destination: Downtown.

I reach my destination with time to spare, my sister remains with the car as she waits for someone to come pick her up, for she had other plans. I, on the other hand would spend the night partying it up like no other.

This party was gonna be going until the sun came up baby. And for attending this party I got paid a nice sum of monies. The party wasn't gonna start for quite a while, in the meantime I was to change my shirt, sit around, talk with people, get makeup applied to my face, and then it was time.

The shuttles, vans, came and took groups of us to "the party house". Lights were every where, everything was set just the way they wanted it. When everyone was there, they positioned us to their liking to make the party nice and well balanced in all places. People in the front, people inside, on the balcony, and on the roof. Tons of drinks such as martinis, glasses full of wine, and bottles of beer. The icecubes though were plastic. By now they were ready. Ready for the first take of the scene. The first part to "the party scene".

That's right. You heard me correctly. The scene. As in, a movie scene.

This party was "hoppin" the whole night. Lots of standing around, chit-chatting away, a midnight-ish lunch was provided, lots of shivering in the cold. We were inside and outside a lot for different takes of the scene, lots of the same stuff. We literally stayed up until the sun came up over the mountain. Its tough wearing Spring/Summer party clothes when its 40 degrees or lower, if you know what I mean. We left around 7:30am.

It was a fun experience, I enjoyed it immensely. I met a bunch of people. Aubrey, a girl who I found out grew up with my sister. Rochelle, an older woman who does photography, works as a movie crew member, and has done some modeling. Phil, a caterer, and awesome down to earth guy who gets things, he isn't a moron by any means, very chill guy. Stacey and Leilani, both very nice girls and fun to talk to.

The movie is called "127 Hours", based off of a true story about a guy who went hiking in Moab, UT, and got trapped under a boulder, he tore off his limb or whatever to survive. The director is very famous, he made the movie "Slumdog Millionaire" and "28 Days Later", Danny Boyle, an Oscar award winner. I talked to him, was a mere arms length away from him many times. Bloody awesome I must say.

Even though I was nothing but a party extra, it was worth the experience. And hopefully more will come. This is only the beginning.

Oh, guess what? I'm in a movie!!! (: Just letting out some excitement.
