Accidental Pool Party

So we were invited to a house party by Time, one of our language school friends, in Palermo Soho. The house/apartment was amazing - all open air with lofts and a fire pole, very spacious and comfortable. But right when you walk in, their is a pool with colored lights in the middle of the floor. About 1.5 x 3 meters. Which was terrifying, because the floor was slippery enough, especially in heels. So we carefully avoided the pool all night by any means possible.

It was a cheese party. Mostly vodka and cheese. We socialized and lamented the absence of drinking games. Hours into the party, a couple Argentine girls showed up. And one walked straight into the pool. She just fell. Like a pencil jump into a 4 foot deep pool. And the whole party, maybe 30 people or so... turned and stared in silenced awe. I mean there was just nothing that could be said. We left soon after... all entertainment was bound to be a disappointment from there.
