Time for an update

Well this week has been pretty uneventful just class, frisbee and homework.  This weekend looks like much of the same compared to last.  We had our ultimate frisbee pub crawl last Saturday and boy was that eventful!  The theme was hero's and villains so be rest assured we were all safe from danger...at least until we all dove into the goon punch.  I transformed into the Clark Kent/Superman combo, and while there claimed to be 2 more supermen at our celebration we all know who the REAL one was...Anyway my friend batman also joined us as well as catwoman, heaps of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Quail Man, Flash, Hulk, Wonder Woman, Tron, and other miscellaneous figures with capes.  We made it to 3 pubs and then hit the town. I had an amazing, unforgettable time...thanks to these pictures:
This one's for you James!

That full moon party was the night before...Friday. It was pretty much a bust. They hyped it up really well, but really it was just like any other party at a club. Lots of drunk people, expensive alcohol, police, and idiots.  We did get to hang out on the beach and watch the sunrise
St. Patty's Day was fun as well, we went downtown to an Irish pub to hang out.  They didn't serve green beer, but they did have an Irish band playing the bagpipes


This weekend I think I'm going to hit The Strand. That's the strip of coastline where the beach is. And since it's jellyfish season we usually hit the Rock Pool which is on the very end.  It's saltwater from the ocean that's filtered into a rock enclosure. The Strand is also home to many restaurants and hotels.  It's very popular and very beautiful on a sunny day.  I have a field trip this Sunday for my Indigenous class. I'm not exactly sure where we're going but it's supposed to be a lot of fun and very educational needless to say.  I'll let you know more next week.
Other than that we only have 2 more weeks left until spring break...well "lecture recess" as they call it here, since they don't really have spring.  I'm not exactly sure what I'm going to do yet, but I'm hoping to get out on the reef for a day or 2.
Until next time, have a wonderful weekend and stay warm!
