Trivia / Talent Show Night!

Hey there! So tonight was really fun! We had Edwards Hall (aka: Ted's) Trivia! Every single question was about Australian culture...which obviously I know very little about, so I let my teammates carry us to victory! In between each round people were asked to preform various talents. This guy in the picture lives 2 doors down from me on my hall and did a whole routine as Steve Irwin the Crocodile Hunter. It was HILARIOUS!! He was so dead on! Every time he said ANYTHING I would lose it laughing! I know the picture is a little dark, but it was soooo funny.
These are the boys who were on my team tonight, Colby and Ryan (Along with "Steve Irwin" on the left!) We were supposed to all be dressed up like we were going into combat but none of us had camouflage so we just all wore tank tops and painted black lines under our eyes. Everyone kept referring to us as the "Football Player" team.....FAIL.
Among the teams there was a 3-way tie. So how do the Aussies settle it? A speed drinking contest, of course!

I'm glad to NOT be going anywhere tonight. I really need to catch up on my sleep! Tomorrow morning I start academic orientation at 9am. I'll be there until 1pm when I come back and Skype with Ant Judy and Uncle Mark! By the way- if you haven't given me your Skype username please do! I use it all the time and would love to talk to you! Anyway, after that I'm participating in a photo scavenger hunt around campus. Tomorrow night at 7 is the dorm's TOGA PARTY at a local pub. I've already tested out my bed sheet and it's all ready to go! Not too sure if I'll be posting pictures of that though! Ha ha.

Last but not least, I'd like to announce that I have 24 bug bites on just my left arm ALONE. I probably have about 30 or so more in other various places. I'm coating on the bug repellent THICK every time I go outside but it's not working!! I'm so itchy!!! It's horrible- Ahhhhh...!! Does anyone know any home remedies besides toothpaste and salt??

I love and miss you all in the states!
