Not Playing Mas

OK.... 
First of all let's all have a minute of silence over the fact that I would not be playing mas this year, 2013 *.........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................*

Minute gone? Ok good, now we can get on with the post :) I've just been putting mas out of my mind so that not being able to play won't affect me so much. But that's hard to do when every time I log into Facebook, someone makes a status about their excitement for the big day, or posts up their costume on my Facebook homepage, just violently poking the bear -_- But seeing that this is a super duper short season, it should all be over in 4-5 weeks time (you have to give people about 2 weeks after Carnival to stop posting statuses, pics etc. about their time on the road, I know this because I've done exactly that for the past couple years I've been playing).

For anyone who has played mas before and enjoyed it as much as I do, not getting to play due to reasons beyond your direct control really sucks. BUT, on the other hand, not playing mas allowed me to take a step back, and reflect on just how much I love that feeling of dancing around in a pretty costume, slightly or not so slightly inebriated, and just having a ball. Sighhh, I love CARNIVAL :)
