I've been to many parties/raves/carnivals in my life— Carnival almost every year since childhood, Lush, VSOP, Back to Basics, Scorch as a teenager, UWI Carnival as a UWI student, and Dream Weekend, Plush at Club Privilege and just this summer, EDX as an adult. I've been going to Major Lazer concert ever since my first one in January, 2013. Hell, I even go to taboo sometimes, but I have never been to anything like this.427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd46PXwqfja

I'm at an 18 and over water party. Apparently, for this particular party, "water" entails that women in bath suits, or anything revealing wrestle each other in a blow up pool, while everyone else cheers, screens, etc.427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8Rlf5HywV

For some reason, I'm not bothered by the fact that he's stalking me. It seems totally in character for him, and I don't feel threatened by it. I actually feel better, having someone even a little bit familiar in such a foreign place.427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNhW6jnngv

I'd left a Rihanna poster on the floor in my bedroom; I must be a sucker for punishment, because I'm staring at it, the remainder of the poster lying on the floor, my idols face distorted by the water causing the ink to run.427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgtXxBRBI7
