While there are plenty of things I enjoy about Halloween, I haven't necessarily celebrated it every year - so this time I made up for it by doing it twice! I even had two costumes, which you can see in my last outfit post. Also, apologies for the photo quality here, I never take my good camera when I'm out drinking, so I've only got phone pictures from both nights. The first night was Friday, the day before Halloween, when a friend booked a bunch of us tickets to see The Rocky Horror Picture Show. I've seen it before, but this was an open air showing, on a 21st floor balcony, with everyone dressed up as characters. I love the film, as it's just utterly bonkers, so I was quite happy for an excuse to see it again! I've heard that showings like this can get quite rowdy, with everyone singing and dancing, but ours was pretty tame. A little disappointing perhaps, but it was still fun to just chill out, watching the film outdoors, with plenty of drinks and snacks on hand! Our night didn't end there either, as the venue was in Wan Chai, which has bars aplenty, so we had a few more drinks before heading home (a decision I may have regretted when faced with going to work with a hangover and four hours sleep the next day...)
The night took a weirder turn after that though. We were trying to go out, but somehow most of the group got separated, though that was sort of understandable given how many of us there were. LKF is the biggest nightlife area in Hong Kong, and the place to go on Halloween, but we knew it would be totally packed, and to be honest, I don't love our nights out there. We went to Wan Chai instead, which I prefer, and were hoping to catch the Rugby World Cup final, since nearly every bar and pub there would be playing it. However, it was also completely packed there, because of said game, and we couldn't get in anywhere to see it. After drinking in the street for a little while, we gave up and came home, just after 1am. Pretty disappointing end to the night, but at least we had fun before that!
