Responsibility, lol.

So earlier this week I had coffee with Brad, Tom, Chris and Brana, a recent ACMT graduate involved in the marketing program. Brana wanted to know if we were studying anything that could be used to benefit ACMT, and now I've gotten involved in setting up a blogging system on the ACMT website for a few professors to use. Fortunately, Tom has stolen some code from WordPress to use on his website, so he has a head start and can make me look more intelligent by association.

Last night was exciting, and consisted of a couple drinking games and a fairly large group of people at Katarina and Dina's apartment. I'm not sure exactly what happened, but a lot of people filtered out around midnight or something, and then it was just me, Kara, Teo and Katarina, and her landlords called to tell us to be quiet. She had a little emotional meltdown and we left the apartment to wander in the direction of old town, where the rest of the group may have disappeared to. Teo disappeared and this morning couldn't remember where he'd been, but the 3 of us girls may have gotten in some strange guy's car and gotten a ride to the old town, where we proceeded to stumble down ~15,000 stairs.

We went to Revelin for about 10 seconds and then left, I'm not sure why. On our way out of the Pile Gate, Teo reappeared in a swerving and unsteady manner and we made it back to my apartment and filled up all the sofas, and in Teo's case, the floor.

Going home and not being able to legally drink is going to be some serious culture shock.

The CS Department emailed to get permission to publish a link to my blog on their website. I guess that's okay, as long as I'm not expected to censor myself more than I already do. My mother reads this, after all.

Later today I'm meeting Nikola at the Mediterranski Sajam, a festival with lots of people showing off their fancy Mediterranean food. He helped organize it, because he works for the Croatian Chamber of Economy, which obviously has a lot to do with food being given away in Babin Kuk.

One of these days I will post a list of names of the people I have met and summarize them, as well as a map with labels and stuff.
