Prosh Week!
Well, SOMEHOW I ended up in a prosh team. For the first time M-ASS (the Melbourne Arts Students Society) had a team. Most of the week there were 4 of us… hilarious because we were still trying despite having NO chance of winning. By Thursday our team leader (a guy who’d actually left uni but had come back to do prosh) had left to move to Canberra sooo we joined the science team for the scav hunt.
I really recommend this week for everyone who has never tried. I wont specify everything we did but everyone really surprised themselves. It’s a great bonding and teamwork learning experience!
The funniest parts that I can talk about here were probably on Wednesday and Thursday.
Wednesday- “Jolly wrestling”, “Iron gut”, “Boat Races” and “Trivia night”. I only got involved in the boat races and the jolly wrestling. Let me tell you- I was the only girl in my team so I volunteered to be the female entrant in the jolly wrestling. We had all been told to meet on South Lawn for wrestling… but we had all assumed it would be in jelly (not so bad). But. No. It was CHOCOLATE SAUCE. Never have I been so filthy. Luckily it was warm so it was bearable. Afterwards I ran around uni covered in the stuff scaring people.
Thursday- At 3pm everyone (all teams) stopped the Scavenger hunt, met at the state library dressed as “the undead” (zombies, dead nurses, ghouls, mummies, etc) and proceeded to walk down the middle of Swanston street shouting “equal rights for the undead”. I’d never been on a protest before, and it was CRAZY how we stopped traffic and trams and wow! Everyone were taking photos of us. We even walked into “The Body Shop” moaning for “Braaaaains” and “Bodddddiiiieeess” which was so so so funny. Hoping to get a hold of some of them.
On top of this- I managed to hand in my first essay of the semester (just to show you that it’s not ALL fun and games). I was happy with it, but who knows what that will mean in the end. For once I did a fair bit of extra reading!
Hope everyone has had a good weekend.
Bob Dylan tonight!
You went to see Bob Dylan? *turns green with envy* How was it? What did he sing? What were The Frames like live?
Sorry about the question bombardment…. 🙂
