We were friends for a while, lost touch, and then one day I started getting postcards from Europe. She had decided to take a semester overseas. She lives in a dormitory that is set aside for incoming freshmen and exchange students. Her floor has more nationalities represented than last years Olympics. We will be staying in her friend Felicity's room.
Felicity is from Australia and is going to be out of town for a few weeks.
I love the way Australians are straight to the point. I know I talk in my sleep, but I cannot truthfully say what other bodily functions I have control over, so I give Chris the bed and I take the floor. After dumping our backpacks, we go to a pub with Nicole and a few of her friends. Gooseberry Pub is by far the most crowded place I have ever been to. It is wall to wall people, and as I force my body through them to gain the bar, I feel like a sperm, fighting with millions of other sperm, trying to reach the egg.
