New Beginnings...

Wild weekend!

VIETNAM | Monday, 13 May 2013 | Views [357]

What a weekend that was.. Duno where it all came about, but it was bloody awesome!

Finishing work on friday was magical... The last class that i'd taught were a bunch of little shits, just wanted to kick them out the window! They were so naughty, and about 98% boys, so you can imagen.. Not in a good mood with the office at the moment they aren't being too fair with wages, and took off $100 for the day i had to miss because I had a scooter accident, and which I told them about with at least 24hrs notice, 12hrs more than whats written in my contract.. So yeh, wasn't happy with that at all...

Besides that- Got home on friday after school and just felt in a funk still? Got a bottle of wine, and drank it out on the deck listening to old songs while Tim was playing guitar inside.. He later goes off to band practice leaving me with my bottle of wine, so I harrass Macs to come out- she gets round and after another bottle, we're skateboarding in the house wearing silly hats- the flat is a bomb site and she's yelling "f you vietnam" from the balcony... haha.. I got in touch with a friend Devon who was planning on going to the old quater aswell, so we met him and went off to "hair of the dog" which is both filled with asians and backpackers- actually had a good time, needed a little trashy dance, and even found me a pink rabbit ballon which was tied to my wrist.. I turn around at some point find Macs pashing on with some guy hahaha... But we got there quite late and it starts shutting down as its midnight and the police are outside.. Its total chaos trying to find the scoot, find mac, find Devon- some kids are trying to bite the ballon off my wrist with their teeth at some point?! hahaha.. I find Macs and she's too drunk to drive so leaves the bike at the hostel where this guy lives- Devon and I check with her 1 more time that she's ok, and she seems it- not gona get in the way there ;-) so its just Devon and I left and we head over to this hidden bar, which is down some tiny alley way and its right by on the river playing crazy techno/electro music- its wild and reminds me of a squat- beers are a bit much at 50K each, but meh! What can you do right? At some points guys are grabbing at me to dance with them and annoyed me, so bless Devon was my honery Tim for the night and he'd come over and get them away, super cute!! I bump into a guy who also doesn't wear shoes and he takes me out back to some of his friends where there is free beers- ahaha, warm, but free, can't complain!

Don't remember getting back, driving or anything much.. I wake up butt naked, black feet and a pink rabbit balloon on the ceiling- Can't remember keeping hold of it?! What on earth Tim must of thought waking up for work? hahaha

Thankfully not feeling too bad, but there isn't any water and I'm hungry and its the festival today and I aint missing that! Get some food, drink and have a bit of a snooze waitin for Macs to wake.. After some confusion I get there around 1630 and its a lovely day, beers, food, flea market and awesome music- We had a little walk around the market, looked at some books, ate some food and bumped into loads of people- shame Tim couldn't be here, its just up his street! some of the music was good, like our friend Bush who djs and this amazing beat boxer who got people going.. Towards the end of the night though there was just too much crazy veitnamese music for our liking and at around 2130 we head back to Macs for a shower and a change of clothes for her, cos she wants to meet this guy again.. hahaha and cos I'm such a good friend I'm going with her...

We get there, and the min we walk in he's there and Macs over him ahaha, we stay for a drink at the backpackers , steal a palm leaf and meet up with Devon and a few others at a bia hoi... Again got there too late, onlly stayed for 1- so we head to Hanoi rock city to meet up with tim, sunny and a few others probably.. We arrive and its packed! We find Louise and the guys from the festival, have a little dance- then I see Tim walking in, haven't seen him properly really since my birthday cos he's been busy working, and my heart just fllutters! haha, I've missed him and we have the biggest hug <3 macs ends up leaving not long after, she's pretty tiered, I'm surprised that I'm feeling ok to be honest! Tim and I dance, drink and chat with some others until I just loose all my energy and its home time- We bump into Nickojai and Heather leaving aswell who were alsso at the festival and they look as bad as I do, super sleepy!!!

Getting into bed was amazing and soon enough i'm zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz AWESOME WEEKEND!!!
