So, flight to Auckland was 'fun' as I lay my head against the vibrating oval window, video taping aimlessly shots of the country. Views were sweet, but once I landed in Auckland I missed the bus into city centre. All was well as my half hour wait was distracted with a weird beetroot, apple, carrot, ginger juice from some juice place.
Once I finally got to my destination of Jacob's flat, a chicken dinner with potatoes was waiting for me, and wine was sipped to prepare for a quiet Sunday night in the city. We went to a belgian bar where I finally had my good beer fix with a very Monday we walked to campus and I got toured around a bit. We wandered around thrift shops, but seeing as my bag was already too heavy on the way there, couldn't be bothered buying anything I particularly liked. My only money spent went towards the weird purchasing of a hot pink wig, a cigarette holder, dice earrings, and a mask [to be explained later].
We also went to the art museum which I thought was really quite awesome. I spent a long time in the learning center where you could play with optical and transparent items and sketch with stencils. I also spent a while in a mirror box room where the whole room was mirrors making it look like you were stacked on top of yourself forever. Dinner was venison sausages and spaghetti, coupled with speights as beverage. Another Liam in my life, my lovely neighbor, had been hitching up from Dunedin to the Bay of Islands and stopped in Auckland for that night to stay with us and shower off two days of hitching filth.
Night time was accompanied by drinking games in the flat like a new one Liam had introduced: moose knuckles.
Moose Knuckles:
Materials: Ice Cube Tray, Bowl, Coin, Alcohol, Friends to Consume Alcohol
Set-up: rest ice cube tray on bowl, like a ramp
Game Play: After filling a bit of their drink [varied] into the bowl, each person gets a chance to bounce the coin into the ice tray. If it lands on the right side, how ever many slots up is how ever many drinks they can give out to other people playing [could be all to one person, or divided]. If it lands on the left side, that's the amount of drinks they have to drink, and then it's the next person's turn. If it lands in the bowl, everyone must throw their thumbs to their temples, fingers pointing up, looking like a moose. The last person to put of their hands must consume the bowl, but it's a democracy.* If the coin does not get into the bowl, it's the next person's turn. If the coin lands in the bowl or on the right side, the player can continue to shoot.
* by saying it's a democracy, it means that even if someone is not the last person to put their moose up, if everyone thinks they ought to drink, everyone can vote for them to drink. This is a mob mentality situation where the last person can target another, or the whole group could target everyone, ensuring that the bowl is consumed by everyone.
