House Party!

A week ago, I attended my first Bermuda house party!  Big thanks to the gracious hosts, Arianne and Joy.  It was fun, fun, fun! We played games that never go old --- charades and 123 pass!  It felt like I was back in college (not that I attended a lot of parties back then!).   To think, I initially didn’t even want to go.  Yes, I am anti-social at times, and very selective with the people I associate with.  Perhaps, too selective.  Now, I realize it’s good to give people a chance, and to go through the discomfort of getting to know new people that are not like us.  I am learning the grace of not writing people off, just because they’re not like me.  Hehehe. :-)  And after all, they are giving me a chance, so what right do I have to be a snob?  (Oh yes, this is me writing.  Unbelievable, eh? Today must be one of my good days. Hahaha!)

I’m sure some of you can relate.  Sometimes, we are so set in our own ways that no one can pierce the walls and the perceptions we have caged ourselves in.  We see people, spend 5 minutes with them, and for some twisted reason, decide we don’t like them.  True, others give us enough reason to look the other way when they speak or act, but how hard could it be to give people the benefit of the doubt?  I’m not saying I’m everyone’s friend or I will like everyone from now on, it’s just that there’s no harm in trying, is there?  So yes, try I will from today onward. 

Here’s some snapshots of the new people I’ve met:
