Het Krokusvakantie PART II

I went jogging... again!
Yay!
Not that it changed anything because I did stop by Kruidvat and pick up some snoepjes. It was really nice to visit the park again though.

On saturday I had to meet up with all the AFS students in Station Leuven but was the only one who came late thanks to the stupid GPS.

Middle Orientation Camp was awesome.
Sorry for the excitement but I actually enjoyed it.
My Indonesian mates were there, I met a lot of new people, who I became friends with afterwards, or should I say, my international friends.
Well my friends from the DAS chapter are also foreigners but hey, it's always great to know more people!

We had to follow workshops during the camp, which I think were a bit boring.. well it's OK. Just OK.
The camp took place in Leuven and unlike the arrival camp, it was only for a night. Trust me, it was too speedy that I want it to last forever.
Ew... lebaynya.

My favorite part of the camp was meal time.
I don't mean to sound like a cow but during meal times you get to chat a lot with your friends and I like it. I'm not gonna complain about the food though, they were actually lekker!

At night, we had a party and Retro was the theme. Most of us dressed up, some of us didn't really care to match up the theme...
Well, at least we had fun, right?

It was not bad actually, Primus was fine and good thing that they didn't serve Kriek. Widari brought her bridge cards so we played couple of games too. We were planning (it's more like I suggested) on playing the drinking game but it didn't happen. Somehow, we ended up playing tepuk nyamuk.

*katanya* Duta Bangsa HAHA
Plus Turkish out of nowhere
The music was OK, but I was expecting more soundtracks from Dirty Dancing, Grease, etc since retro was the theme.
But they played Pretty Woman... so I guess it's fair enough, eh?

I made a new friend from Italia and hij is super!
Just like me, he arrived late in Belgium so we both missed the first camp.
His name is Elios and his classical piano is excellent.
He told me that his name means 'Sun' so it matches my name (Rainy). During the camp we have this fake facebook wall where we can write (or post) everything we want, and he wrote this:


Elios and I


Nice, eh?
Elios and I ditched the party for approximately half an hour to play with Oelij. Good thing he had internet on his phone because we needed to look up for lyrics to sing.
What I love about this party was that I didn't spend a lot of money on drinks. Milos bought me the first drink, Titus lost a bet and had to buy me another, and then I got another from Koen!
While I was playing my ukulele, some stranger actually throw a 50 cent to me and I managed to buy another pint. Thanks people!
The party ended at around 1.45 AM with the song 'Ik Wil Je' from De Kreuners, yes that's early but we needed to wake up at 7 AM in the morning.

Sunday: workshop, workshop, frietjes, workshop, and finally we need to leave the camp and that also means the end of Krokusvakantie.


In the train with my badass turkish (Dilan)

Ik vind het echt triestig, want de volgende camp is de eindecamp.
Gisteren was ik 5 maanden in België.
Ik heb nog 5 maanden en I promise I'm gonna make the best of it.

Cheers!
