Bedtime diary
So to make a correction, the Hong Kong/China guys I mentioned meeting in my wing earlier are actually Michael and Johnny, not Charles. And they look so alike that I really have difficulty telling them apart. Michael told me he had a scar near his eye, though, and his glasses have clear framing around the actual black frames so that's how I'm going to tell them apart. :PToday we had a really cool scavenger hunt. We went rushing around Melbourne City Central in groups of about 6 to complete challenges at certain areas. I actually thought we did pretty well until we got back and realized we hadn't found some basic ones. I did keep telling them but nooooo, they said 'we'll leave it till later'...well not my fault then!
It was fun, though, I got to sleep on the steps of Flinders Street Station, pretend to sing karaoke at the Immigration Museum (it probably would have been more fun if we'd actually sang), pose wearing women's underwear at Myers (mind you, the guys were more into it than we were even), climb atop a human pyramid, order an ice cream while sitting piggyback on another guy, and even do the tango..hahaha. It was pretty fun. There were some things that made it not fun but I shan't go into that.
At night we basically just hung out, ate dinner together, talked, I watched people play pool and got to know a few friends better, and then we watched a DVD of people talking about homesickness, etc, and the O-Week team gave a talk about life at Normanby House, don't do drugs, and such.
We also had a slushie machine.
I still cannot get used to being so short suddenly amongst all these freaking giants.
Photos are being uploaded on Facebook as we speak.
Yes I will take more soon.
There aren't many photos of our scavenger hunt antics but Kim (our team leader) has promised to scan and send them to me when he gets them.
Australian sports are complete alien to me.
Okay I'm getting a bit incoherent because I just spent the last half hour cleaning up my room, which looks a lot more spacious now, mind you.
Good night!
