:: Saj’s Bucks Night

It has been two days now and I’ve finally recovered from the bucks night to end all weddings… I mean bucks night to end all bucks nights… :)Leading up to the weekend I was being sneaky sneaky, and tried to get it out of Sahan and Heath what they had planned for me… To no avail I was only told that we were going to be paint balling and that the rest would unfold as the day progressed. About 15 of us rocked up to the paint ball arena in Canningvale and suited up in full camouflage gear and masks. It was a scorching day reaching up to 38 degrees and I swear each one of us would’ve lost at least 2kg with all the sweating we did. We were broken up into two groups and it was the green team vs the blue team. My team didn’t fare too well in the first couple of rounds with all the crew being nailed and not a single casualty on the green team. Tired of being the only tracked target (for some reason even my own team had the urge to hunt me down) I took the battle into my own hands in the third round and managed to nail 5 members of the opposition before my team took the victory for that round.

I would have to say the highlight was the shot for shot round where I was challenged by Kes, Heath (my brother in law), Sahan my best man and Cyrus my brother in law. I stood on one end of the field and the guys stood about 15 metres away from me. We each had 5 shots at each other and weren’t allowed to dodge the bullets that were aimed at us. Shot for shot it was painful and seeing that I was challenged I became good at nailing the guys. For some reason my gun released 3-4 paintballs at a time so it did plenty of damage. Check out the paintballing video here!

Bruised and battered we traded war stories and showed each other the instant bruises and welts we endured over a barbecue organised by Sahan at his house. Later that day I went home and dressed up for a big night out. Sahan told me to dress to go out clubbing, but when I rocked up to their house I was greeted and instructed to get changed into the clothes that were spread out on the bed. When I walked into the room I saw green suspenders, a red frilly shirt and checkered pants with white knee high socks and black dress shoes… I dressed up but that wasn’t all that was required of me. Once I had the outfit on Sahan passed me a pair of nerdy glasses completed with sticky tape in the middle to secure them! Yes… I had been transformed into STEVE ERKEL GEEK EXTRAORDINAIRE!!

 

Without kissing and telling too much shortly after the stripper arrived I was sat down on a chair while the entertainment continued…. many drinks were had and before I knew it I was arguing with the porcelain express… yes I got trashed and ended up crashing for 20 mins… Even though we didn’t get to paint the town red I had an awesome time once I woke up again and the boys kept the drinks flowing. Thanks to Sahan and Heath for organising everything and I’m looking forward to seeing everyone at the wedding…
