Alright everyone, special Halloween edition. Nina and I are off to a salsa party that we're hosting, and I've got to teach a lesson at. And phase 1 of my zombie costume is for Nina to do makeup. Nothing brings Nina more joy than being able to put makeup on me. It doesn't happen that often. Once a year? More than once a year we've done it besides Halloween? I think once a year. It's the highlight of her year. She loves putting makeup on me, and otherwise I'm not a fan except for Halloween. So this is blood and tiredness, and I gotta get my costume on, and then we're gonna rock the Halloween party. All right, here we are in full costume. Evan the zombie security guard. Nina the slasher star. And Stephanie, my sister, the female Robin. What does Robin do? I'm pretty sure Robin doesn't do that. Pretty sure Robin does not do that. Peace? Okay, oh, we gotta take a picture. I'm trying to do— I'm trying to start a thing doing a picture of the day. Okay. This is the first day.
Let's do it.
Okay, okay, let's go dancing.
Get ready. Alright, we arrived at the club.
There's a few performances happening behind us. Now we're getting ready to set—
hey, where are you? You gotta be in here. DJ Robin.
Romántico, one of Toronto's hottest salsa DJs, right there.
Yeah, I like it. So once these guys finish their performance, we're gonna do the lesson and then get dancing. We had our contest to announce the winner of our Best dressed, best costume at Halloween party. And after 5 years of trying, 5 years of being second place, third place, never first place, the first place winner is Amon, the Pope, the Pope Amon. Look at that, look at this costume.
Bless you all.
Look at that, the guy goes all out. So he gets a 3-month pass to Uptown Lab to come here and dance, and it's one, one piece TDS glass of his choice. So Alex from TDS is going to present Alain with the prize. There it is. How does the Pope accept the prize? It's a handshake. I wanted to know what the handshake is. 5 years of trying. And there's Nina.
I'm back. It was an amazing night. It is almost 12:30. I gotta be up in 5 and a bit hours to go to the League of Legends finals that's being streamed here in Toronto at a big theater. And, uh, I gotta figure out how to take all this makeup off. This is great makeup, actually. Not that I'm a huge fan of makeup, but usually the stuff I had before, I think it was paint? Couple years ago, and it was really sticky, and this is actually pretty cool. I didn't even know it was on, and I touch my face every now and then. I have to worry about touching my face. Look, there's Nina. Wake up, get to League of Legends, get some coffee in the morning, and have a great day. Hope you guys have an amazing weekend, and I'll talk to you soon. Nina, how do I get this off? With— I don't know, you know how to get this off.
Wash it with face soap.
Just normal soap? You don't use baby wipes or something? I feel I need baby wipes.
I told you there's a wipe— makeup remover wipes on the top and I can wash them.
Okay.
