Tonight was my dad's mom's brother's son's bachelor party. His name is Georges and he's in his mid-30s. I'm not usually a big fan of parties because it's awkward when I don't dance, but I was so stoked on going tonight. I wanted to meet my dad's mom's side of the family. I've met them a long time ago, but I don't remember any.
Let me explain how the bachelor party works here, because you're probably thinking what is a girl doing at a bachelor party. Well, in Lebanon, the groom throws a party in his house or his parent's house and invites all his relatives. Actually, it's an open invitation, so whoever wants to come is welcome. So groom has his party, and the bride does the same thing at her house. And at midnight, the groom and his best men and close relatives drive to the bride's house and party with her for a bit. I actually like this idea more than the stripper cliche crap. One of the reasons why I do not want to get married in the States.
