On wednesday night we went to the Trinity College (one of the international colleges at UWA) for their multicultural dinner. Its basically a night for all the international studies from all over the world - France, Singapore, Malaysia, USA, Africa, Japan, Europe - get together, dress up in all kinds of strange outfits that are supposed to represent the different cultures and have a night of dinner, and LOTS of alcohol..
When we got there at about 7pm, the main dinner hall was already wreaking of alcohol, and outside, there were small puddles of food/alcohol vomit signalling the start (and the end for some) of a crazy night. Besides that, the hall was decorated by many flags (to symbolise the diversity of cultures at Trinity College), as well as little oriental lanterns etc... *cheap decorations* ...The costumes ranged from non-dressed up people, to mandatory cheongsums from the Asian lot, to crazy togas from some of the Aussies, and there were some random other outfits such as aussies in rice hats, a RAIDEN (from mortal kombat), people that were basically half naked and some girls who decided to just dress up and pretend it was a dinner dance/cocktail event.. :)
The Yaolin boys performed two liondances, much to the appreciation of drunken international students, whilst the photo opportunity afterwards provided them with some close contact with half-naked people, drunk people insisting that they should RIDE the lion, and of course, some tame people :)
Unfortunately, i wasnt able to take some good shots because the night mode of my camera kept making it "shake" and when i turned the flash off, it just went dark.. so here are some random pics from the night :)
