Well i don't even know where to begin this night story... It was sloppy to say the least... So this was a party out together by some exchange kids and the program here that is hosting us... The program here put together the classy part of the even which was a dinner banquet and the students put together to after-party. Standard haha. So the dinner was at the YMCA in Hong Kong but it was actually a really nice venue! They had big tables in the ballroom and then there was a terrace outside with a great view of some of the skyscrapers... it looked gorgeous... We all sat down and had a great buffet dinner... they probably wanted to fill our stomachs knowing that and after-party would follow haha. So we had a nice meal and got to watch a slideshow of all of our pictures from the semester! They are posting it on Youtube so ill add the link once i get it! Then they gave out a few funny awards... After all this everyone hung out on the terrace for a few hours and had some drinks and took some pictures until it was time to go to the club. The club was in Wan Chai so we all got on the Star Ferry and were on our way! The club is called Vertigo and it was on the 26th floor. needless to say no one was going to walk the stairs so there was a huge line for the elevators... Being the sly people we are, we took the escalator up to the second floor and caught it on the way down so we could skip the line and take it all the way up... this was probably rude of us but i think it was pretty smart :) The club was pretty cool with a decent size dance floor and lots of booths to sit in on the outside. A guy from our program was DJ-ing so that was nice too... There was lots of dancing (and drinking) and fun! I didn't get home til about 5:30 am which is my new record... I am pretty proud of myself considering I got to bed at midnight usually haha.. I had soo much fun! It was for sure one of the best nights here! It took everyone the whole next day to recover so thank goodness i have a few days til my last final haha... Everyone had a ball and the pictures are hilarious... some you can tell how everyone is haggard at the end of the night and those are funny too! The night was filled with tons of funny stories that we heard/told each other about in the morning. No secrets when you are abroad and there are only 200 international students haha... You business is everyones business... I fell on the floor a few times cause the ground was so wet from all the spilled drinks but it was graceful so i can laugh about it now... Anyways, it was an absolutely great way to end the semester before everyone leaves to do their traveling and go back to their home countries... its very bitter sweet... It will definitely be weird to not live in dorms and see all these people come in and out everyday... There will definitely be some sad tears on the way home but I will also be super excited to see everyone again!
P.S. Don't judge me by my pictures haha :)
