St. Patty's Day

For me, St. Patricks day took place on a Wednesday night. My roommates and I got on our green attire and headed out to a Irish Pub. We never actually ended up going to the pub because we decided that the walk probably wasn't going to be worth stuck in a huge line anyway. So we stopped at the usual Hotel Illawarra.

We all decided to get a classic Irish drink (Irish car bombs). I had never had one, but had heard if you don't drink it fast enough it will curdle. The drinks here are much smaller in the states, so I was actually able to successfully drink the car bomb. I wouldn't say it was great, but it really wasn't bad! Unfortunately, we ended up with a lot of money issues. The drinks were $4.50 and I paid with a 20. Yet I didn't get ANY change back. We have no idea where the money went, but my drink ended up costing a lot more than expected.

After awhile we headed to the Glasshouse. Everyone was dressed in green, and many people were wearing crazy outfits! One guy was wearing a full-body green spandex suit that even covered up his entire face. It was wild! I ended up meeting and dancing with an Australian guy :) I had a blast! The night was an overall success!!
