North Gong

Loving the Gong and the people here. The Aussies on my floor are super nice and lots of fun. Last night, the girls decided to go out to this bar, North Gong. Lots and lots of fun...learning quickly that drinks are expensive here. I see lots of cheap box wine in my future. Also, turns out people are not so unfamiliar with IU. In fact, one guy at the bar listed off heaps of info he knows about IU, odd. But I do get the "oh, so you're from America" business haha. Bar closed super early, midnight early, so started walking to another one. Took a detour and got kebob and tried to break into a pool. Sadly, people were on the porch by the pool, so next stop the beach. It was drizzling so some of us decided to take off our shoes, good idea right? Wrong, feet hurt like Hell and still sore today. Brilliant plan on my part. I figured it wouldn't be that far of a walk...I was wrong. Stopped at the beach and we wanted to swim buuut some creepy, old, fat man decided to plop down in the middle of the beach and watch, so that plan was nixed real fast. Disappointed, came back to Campus East (the dorms/pods w/e where we live).

Heaps of fun, though, a little tired today. Post lunch walked to the train station and to the uni. Made it, but it's quite a walk. The campus is nice, very green and pretty. I need to find a hiking trail soon, though! Too much just hanging out in the dorms. Need to go out and explore :)
