Well, I probablly shouldn't laugh, my roommates actually had tests and papers due, so I acutally did some homework too. So productive! But, overall the week wasn't fairly eventful. My friend's mom, Shirley, came to visit, so we showed her around Cyprus and went out to meze again! On Friday we went to karaoke night and hung out with some of the people from the US Embassy! It was so much fun! And on Saturday Alkea took us out!
Sunday night, we were able to go to the bar by our flat and watch the men's gold medal hockey game! I FINALLY got to see the Olympics! It was killing me! But, the other people at the bar were driving me crazy! I usually try to have patience with people when they don't know much about sports, but this was ridiculous. One of the girls on our trip was from Canada, she came in and asked, "What quarter is it?" Then we said, "umm...its the 1st period!" Come on, you're from CANADA! She had no idea. Nor did she know the Canadian National Anthem! What?! I then listened to a girl talk about how hockey players always tear up the ice and how much it sucked when she used to figure skate (when she was like 9) because they couldn't do anything... I will spare you the numerous other stories that I have, but yes, I held my tounge and zoned in on the game. Good job Marie.
That's basically it. The rest of the week was nothing noteworthy. We are just finishing packing for our week-long trip to Italy and Greece!! Except, it is supposed to rain all week - from Sunday-Friday/Saturday :( But I can't wait! Italy and Greece, here I come! :D
