You'd learn something new everyday:
BBC started the first TV broadcast in 1936. |
Yesterday was such a havoc night. Our senior Serene decided to bring us kids around to the pubs around the campus region. The beginning of the night was just okay. We drank some beer and bourbon coke, got a little bit drunk, played the usual personality quiz stuff, talked the usual things, laughed the usual awkward way. After some time, we just decided not to talk anymore. Somebody commented to me, above the music, "The music here is so loud we can't talk." The other girl sitting next to me said," If not for the music, we would have the awkward silence thing." That was so true I wanted to laugh out loud. But from that point onwards, music or no music, I just felt really awkward. I think if not for the fact that I was a littel drunk, I would have felt even worse.
Then we decided to go on and dance. Not really successful. Some of them didn't like dance. Some of them liked dancing but hated the music. Some of them were so grossed out by the caucasians' sexually suggestive dancing they were too distracted to dance anyway. It was just so awful. When it became obvious that most of us were not enjoying ourselves, we proceeded back to the Quad, to just sit down and talk.By then, some of the people were already so physically and mentally tired they went back to their dorms. Aha. But the night has just barely started. The contents of the conversation among the remaining 3 girls and guys cannot be disclosed, to protect the innocent. But let's just say that the word of the night was "sex" and that it was hilarious. Then the sprinklers for the grass came on. While running around and avoiding the cold water, we speculated if the water was mixed with certain "fertilisers". Once again, we were all cracked up by our own little comedy. Barely breathing right after all that laughing, we came to the highlight of the night. Apparently some people from some party decided that yesterday night was the perfect night for a little run around the Quad. Naked. Both men and women ran into our field of vision and one of our girls went, "Omigod." And proceeded to repeat herself for the next 1 minute while that naked running party was around. I was already a little tipsy so I didn't really take a good look at any of the the runners. Darn. Hahaha.... In fact, I am surprised by my nonchalant reaction. I think it was the alcohol...retarded my reflexes. So in the end, I just looked and managed to be cool about it. Serene says that naked running parties are quite common here. So I'm wondering if they'll turn up again next Saturday. *raise right eyebrow* Hahahaha... |
