As you might've seen in my past post.. there was a cool little video by my friend Brett... The background song is by the Gaslight Anthem in case you were wondering like me... Nice lil' tune... So we decided to play in an expat beach volleyball tourney just this past weekend... I had to wake up at 8am to play... I was pretty bitter about this at first.. but that quickly faded once we got there... It turned out to be a beautiful sunny day... and the half of my team who I didn't know previously turned out to be reallly really cool people and we had a ton of fun... BUT.. we lost our first game... now we were in the losers bracket and didn't play for 2 and a half hours... OK.. so we're on the beach on a sunny day with two and a half hours to kill... what can a bunch of mid-twenty year olds do on a beach?? oh yeah... drink... 
needless to say... our composure and team dynamics had changed by the second game... and we didn't stop winning (or drinking for that matter) until the finals... there were 15 teams or something... and we came in 2nd place... the worst part was.. we played the same team we lost to in the finals in the championship... actually.. the worst part was our prize... a bottle of tequila and 80,000 won... the last thing a bunch of burnt foreigners need is a bottle of tequila... 
We had a really cute golden lab ref most of the games... Just thought I'd throw in a pic of him chilling on the side-lines...
anyways... you might of been wondering why Brett and Nicole were dancing like idiots in the video... well... It's a little thing my friends from the South like to call "do your best jager"... No matter where you are (at the beach) or what you're doing (in the middle of play).. if your friends yell to you to "hey cliff.. do your best jager!!".. you have to stop what you're doing and do your very best mick jager style of dance... it's absolutely ridiculous... and i love it... by the end of the night... Nicole lost a bet and had to do a shot of tequila out of brett's pasty white belly-button... haha.. 
Okay.. so I realize my last few posts have shared a general theme... alcohol... and that's not all that we do around here... So the next few posts will be a lot more interesting and culture based... Last Monday I had the day off and went to Jagalchi fish market and took some pics of some really cool stuff... That will be my next post.. Either later this week or early next... Bye for now :)
