Tonight I met up with NCS (Newcastle christian students) a local club at the university. They had an introductory BBQ dinner (much tastier than the stuff at school) and took everyone out for a walk to the lighthouse to catch the sunset. I was able to make friends with a couple of aussie guys who invited me to play car park soccer, a game of madness!
After meetings, some of the NCS students head over to the campus parking structure for car park soccer. There are two decent size colums that serve as goals, the rest of the structure (fences, walls, ceilings, colums) are fair game. People show up and leave when they want, randomly pick a side to be on, and jump into the mix. Last night about 40 people got together to play, the game resembeled something like an 8 year old AYSO game, every player chasing after the ball and kicking wildly. This was an amazingly fun way to spend the evening
