Alright, two days ago was barbecue night at the pavilion. I can barely remember what I did before that night....oh yeah, I finally got my ID. I waited one hour and forty minutes just to get my picture ID. I still have to go back and get my health care sticker put on it. Once barbecue night started, I invited my roommate Jason to go with me and he agreed. We went to my friend's apartment to see if they were ready to go. Then we went to the barbecue. I ate with Jason and then he left. Then I went to find my other friends, but did not stay long because they were drinking and I felt a little out of place. I just went back to my room and watched a movie. The next day was a rainy day. I started off by going to a writing assignment class, but me and the girls I sat next to decided to leave early because it was not worth it. Then I hung out in my room for most of the day. I believe I talked to my family and made sure to get 3gigabites for my computer.

Later that evening I went and asked my French roommate what she was doing that night. The snc girls were going out for a birthday and I wasn't sure if I was invited, they were basically going bar hopping. My French roommate said she and some friends were going to this restaurant place and I could come with if I liked. I said I would love to, but we could not find a bus to take us. Instead we ended up going to her friends apartment and hanging out. They wanted pizza from Dominoes and were so excited that there was an English speaking person to order for them lol! I ordered the pizza and we all continued to hang out. There were French girls, a French guy, a German guy, and then later a guy from Finland, some Austrians, and some Australians. I truly had a wonderful time getting to know all these people. The French and German guy were easy to talk with because they had better English then some of the French girls. I am so fascinitated by other cultures and countries that it was wonderful to talk to these people. We went as far as comparing what a rooster says in each of our languages. For example, in America a rooster says "cock a doodle doo" (spelling?) and it is different for other countries. In all, the night ended up much better than I expected.

Today, the day started off slow again, but I went to bed late the night before. I thankfully got to talk to every member of my family! Then I went to the pool for a little while, it was such a hot and sunny day out! I sat with my roommate and her French friends. It is not always easy because they talk in French a lot. They always say, "okay in English" and then they talk in English for a bit and go back to French lol. After the pool I hung out in my room. Then my French roommate, Naomi (figured I could just use her name), invited me to have dinner with her and her friends and go out to a club. I agreed and found out that one of the snc girls I had not seen yet was her friend's roommate. I finally got to see her and the other snc girl I had not seen! I had a nice pasta dinner with the French girls. Was able to talk to my salsa teacher Scott and met an English man, Andrew. We then went to a pre-party, but the three of us Americans felt out of place and decided to go to the clubs without the others. We ended up going to a place in Maloolaboo (spelling?). It was pretty nice. We did not stay too long though. I am really glad I finally found the two snc girls I was missing. They are really nice, and even though the drink a little, they are fine with me not drinking! I think it will be a good day tomorrow!
