Campus Activities

Yet even more to catch you up on, I'll have to add photo's later: First week of school here is AWESOME the school throws parties every night, sometimes in the day too. There was a hypnotist yesterday, Toga party last night- way cool, Numerous Free concerts- big bands here too, a Gumboot party, comedy night, etc. and there is free food on the ct. for lunch, provided by the bank for the entire week. 


This is Amhir from Pakistan. After inviting him to the toga party, I later found out that he thought toga was food. Boy was he surprised when I told him take off his shirt and handed him a sheet to wear. He kept asking me, "people do this?" It was a bit of a walk to the party and I think Ahmir thought I playing a joke on him, he let out a Big Sigh of relief when he saw other people wearing sheets and tree leaves too.

Today was club day- and I joined way too many clubs: Surfing- every weekend I'm free, Alpine Club- climbing and outdoor adventures, Release- a reputable traveling photography club, and my Favorite- The Fire Club.

  

The fire club practices the art of poi-  based on the Maori tradition of fire dancing. Actually I picked it up quite quickly. I also aspire to ride the unicycle and enhance my juggling skills. I guess if our careers fail after college we could always start a circus or be street performers.

How in the Hell are you suppose to study in a place this Awesome! All things considered it's actually fairly easy- Classes are just as great! We go on field trips and class only takes up about 12 hours a week. Quite a bit of homework, but I couldn't ask for better classes.

Tonight I joined about 20 friends in a potluck dinner which took place in a place like the true Garden of Eden. It actually reminded me of Alice and wonderland at the Tea Party. It was so surreal, roses all over, bushed in walls, and it was hidden from the rest of the world. It was such a hit we will likely be doing this every week.

Someone pinch me, I think I'm Dead!
