Went to Taughannock Falls today. (Thank you roomie for the correct spelling.) It's suppose to be the tallest waterfall in New York State. Unfortunately this summer has been a little too dry, so no water was falling. Seriously. It was completely dry. Shucks.
We had a fun time playing silly games with the rest of the Singaporeans. We made one guy sing a love song to one of the RAs, and another guy almost had to kiss another guy as forfeit. In the end we relented and made him gyrate (gosh the words those engineers use... *sweatdrop*) or more commonly known as "shake your butt!" while standing on the table. Great entertaintment value.
When we returned to sch, we slacked at Appel playing taitee again. Then we went up to the dining hall and stuffed our faces with lots and lots of food heh. We went down to the Arts Quad where there was a live band concert. My very first live concert. Gee, what a night to remember. Although I didn't know the name of the band and the songs they were singing, it was still really cool. Figuratively and literally. The wind tonight was really strong and there were these 4 large speakers hanging next to the stage that kept swaying with the wind. Pretty scary especially for the people standing underneath them.

We then walked over to Ho Plaza, where there were many stalls set up. Some were selling food, but many others were games stalls, where you can win raffle tickets by playing the games. It's those simple carnival kind, like knock down cans with a beanbag or throwing a ball into a hole, you know, stuff likedat. We also took a group picture and had it framed with this American Flag. It's really nice and the best thing is that it's all free! Hahaha Singaporeans just cannot resist all this free stuff. Yup so now I'm exhausted. Sorry for the short post, I'll try and make it up next time :)
