Beer pong tournament!

My fraternity would be so proud. My parents would not be.

Many of American crew was Greek at our respective universities, and what is the Greek experience without a few friendly games of Beirut! So myself (Beta Theta Pi, Northwestern ’05) Matthew Newcomb (Sigma Chi, University of Michigan ’05) and Winnie Hsia (Crazy Asian Sorority, New York University ’05) along with a few independents purchased copious amounts of Kingfisher beer to host a party and we invited some of our new friends, mostly interns that we hang out with quite a bit, to come to Adarsh Gardens. By the way, you should see the looks you get when you try to purchase a WHOLE CASE OF BEER! The people at the grocery store didn't even know how to ring it up. Anyway, the only thing missing was a real Beirut table, but that never stopped us at Beta, and for God’s sake…we’re in a third world country!!! Here is the pictorial narrative of the evening:

I didn't get to my own party till late cuz I had to work till 8:15, but here's my first shot of Beiruit in 2 months!!! (we lost this game to Matt and Scotty Mac)

Then a bunch of interns showed up and it got a bit roudy...

In this picture we're trying to teach people how to play flip-cup. The Europeans didn't quite understand the concept, so they were filling their beers to the top despite our pleas. Neadless to say, we only made it through one game.
Things did get a bit out of hand as Winnie and Laura demonstrate in this picture. What a couple lushes!!!

I was put in the monkey cage due to questionable behavior. I probably deserved it.

So that's the crazy night that made the superintendent complain. Apparently we broke a couple rules, such as jumping into the pool at 3:00 AM, but it was really all in good fun. Also, Indian culture really doesn't understand how the rest of the world likes to get down, so they requested that all of us be evicted. Keep in mind there was a very tiny stereo and maybe 15 people there at the peak of the party. In any case, we cleared everything up and we will continue to reside in Adarsh for the time being.

Just wanted to mention that today is my 2 month anniversary of living in India! What do you think about that?! I'm suprised I've made it this long. Seriously. But I actually enjoy the place, so whatcha gonna do.

As my current project comes to a close, I will try to keep up with my blog better. I know I've been a bit slow lately.

That's it for now. You don't have to go home but you can't stay here...
