O-Week

This week has been O-Week, or Orientation Week. It is filled with daily events either done by the Residence Hall you live in, or by the University itself. I had a hall meeting on Saturday, and met some of the other people who are living on my hall. I also met my SR, senior resident. Her name is Marcelle, and she is very nice. That night, I went to International Student Speed Dating.. very strange indeed haha. I will never do that again.

Sunday, B & G Hall had an event called Drag and Diva night. Basically, guys were supposed to dress like girls, and girls like Brittney Spears in her bad days. I was told I didn't look tacky/trashy enough. Haha. After it, we went to a gay bar called Cube. The people here get a lot crazier than the people at home. I just sort of stood there watching and taking pictures haha.

Monday I worked on my costume for the "Anything Goes...but Clothes" night. I cut arms and a neck into a pillowcase, and wore it as a shirt. Then I took pieces of my fan box and made a belt, and glued pink and blue crepe paper all down it to make a skirt.

Tuesday I went grocery shopping finally! It was so strange, because nothing was familiar to me. They don't even have Parmesan cheese in a container, the dry powdery kind like I like haha. Thanks to my new friend Nikki, I had a ride to the grocery store so I didn't have to carry all my groceries. Oh, by the way. The orange Fanta here tastes like pepper. Eew. But the Pepsi is the same, I have a liter of that in my little mini wine cooler fridge thing.

Today, I was woken up at 6am for a fire drill. I was probably one of the last ones to go outside, because I was staying in my room until some guy came and unlocked my door and made me leave.. Boo. I also did my first 2 loads of laundry today. I am about to go put them in a dryer.
