The weekend (1/24 & 1/25) was pretty boring. I didn't do much either day, just some homework. I did also do the Trevor Pub Quiz on that Sunday evening, which is always fun even though our team sucks.
Monday (1/26) was awesome though. It just so happened to be Australia Day so, as you can imagine, all of the Aussie exchange students were looking to party. At 8pm we met up in the flat of two of the Aussies and had a pregame party. Here are some pics:

The party was a blast!! They made some punch which was fantastic and quite intoxicating. After about 2hrs or so we decided it was time to move the party into the bars in town.
Our first stop was WalkAbout, which is an Aussie bar so it was an obvious choice. We ordered round after round and danced to the not-so-dance-friendly music that the DJ was playing. Here are some pictures from WalkAbout:

After spending about 1.5 hrs at WalkAbout, most of us headed to Elements to finish out the night.
Elements was pretty packed, which made it a lot fun. We hit the dance floor and didn't stop until it was time to leave. Here are some pics:

Around 2am Richard, Rose, Urmie, and I caught a taxi back to campus. Back at campus we did our usual stop at Sultan's for some curly fries before crashing. All in all it was one of the best nights I've had since I've been here. The Aussie group is so much fun to hang out with.
