Does the name Jay Gatsby ring a bell? Let’s hope because he’s the one that throws extravagant parties in his gigantic mansion in West Egg. If you haven’t been invited to one of Gatsby’s parties you’re missing out. But no worries we slipped into one to give you the inside scoop on what goes on in the enormous mansion. As you walk into the house your face is illuminated and you are almost blinded by the brightness of light. You feel the energy from the music and from the many excited guest. As people mill around we asked some what they thought of the party, one replied, “I love coming here, I always have such an amazing time.” Another said, “There’s always such great company and the food is fantastic!” Though no one seems to know where the host is, it doesn’t stop them from having a grand time.
Many marvel over Gatsby’s Rolls-Royce, his clear blue swimming pool, his magnificent beach, and crates of fresh oranges and lemons. There are buffet tents in the beautiful gardens overflowing with an endless feast, as a live orchestra plays under the stars. Liquor flows freely, and the crowd grows louder as more and more guest get drunk.
As the party is ending and everyone is saying their good-byes, we found the host and questioned him about his luxurious parties. “Why do you have these occasions?” He simply answered, “To have fun, of course.” We then proceeded to ask, “What is your favorite thing about the parties you throw?” He answered with a smile on his face, “why I love everything, especially the company of friends.” Gatsby is such a wonderful host and the party was unbelievable, one of the best parties you’ll ever go to. There will be one next Saturday, so get invited, and fast!
