NAIT Welcome Week

So Monday was the start of NAIT'S Welcome Week.

First off, there was an ice breaking thing in the gym where I got to briefly meet some people. One girl who I became friendly with, Andrea, noticed my henna tattoo and that became the starting point of our conversation. I REALLY need to get myself a henna kit, especially if it helps make new friends.:)

After the ice breaking thing, we were put in groups and were taken on a tour of the main campus. It looks like a really great campus and there are lot's of places to eat and study. There's a coffee shop, a Mr. Sub, a Pizza Hut, a Common Market, and even a campus bar, The Nest, located next to the swimming pool. It'll be free to go to the pool, so I think I might end up going there quite often.

When the tour was finished, we headed over to the Shaw theatre for a comedian presentation about managing finances. I ended up getting 5 bucks for being "the smallest freshman."B)

After that, there was a free hypnotist show at The Nest with Damian the hypnotist. It was pretty fun. I was laughing so hard I was crying.

The next day, I went in early for the free pancake breakfast and registration. As we were having breakfast, some French guy asked us to sit at his table and we talked alot about politics, since he said he was going to be a polititan. Very friendly though. The registration went quickly so we were out of there pretty soon.

Afterwards, we went to Surf's Up! at a cheap theatre. The movie was really great. The only downside was that a daycare brought 196 kids to it and completely filled it up. My dad, who was late(as usual) couldn't get in to see it with us.:/

Anyhoo, it's been a very exciting week so far.:)
