Week 1 over already!!
Gutted I have to pay for week 2 in the hostel tomorrow- already!!!!
Erm so apart from hanging out on the wards in the morning (where I am now the unofficial JHO as the interne is on holiday) I've tried to have a kind of low key weekend, which only partly worked because last night after a couple of beers in the hostel a wee group of us ended up going to some crazy nightclub on the Place des Cocotiers where we xatched the exciting finale of Miss Mont Doré and partook in some serious dancing! So at last, one week later, I have celebrated properly the end of the exams, whoop!
Also yesterday I was on the news at 7:30pm! Tate (my roommate who is doing a PhD in anthropology) and she was going to see the NC delegation for the Pacific Arts departing for the conference in Pago Pago, Samoa, so I tagged along. It was held at the Tjiabou centre, which is a really cool exhibition space. There were some dancers and singing, and some music. It was pretty cool and there were some really big cheeses there from the world of NC arts-even the vice president! And we were on the news! Thank goodness for the red shorts, I had been worried I would blend into the crowd!
Today was feeling a bit sensitive so Tate and I went to the beach near Nouville- randomly there's a resort there and we were both starving so when we saw cheeseburgers and chips it was just perfect. So we sat in the NC sun and ate cheeseburgers and listened to the pacifician? music and watched the inappropriately young girls dancing before lying on the beach all afternoon in the winter sun. It gets dark here about 6pm and cools down really quickly, something to remember if you ever come!
Dad- well done for the comment leaving (technically not part of the actual blog you know!)
