Work from uni has finally caught up to me.  Within the next week I have 2 midterms and 2 essays due before the much-anticipated break!  Over the weekend I went to another AFL game, the West Coast Eagles vs. Sydney Swans.  We sat behind the goal posts which was an interesting way to watch the game.  The game itself has pretty many rules but I knew how the basic scoring was done.  There are 4 goal posts and if you get it the ball within the inner 2 you get 6 points and if you get it within the outer 2 you get 1 point.  The game was pretty close until the Swans came from behind and shocked the home crowd by pulling off a 95-88 win.  The fans really get into the game, there was a woman behind me who almost had a nervous breakdown when it went down the drain for the Eagles.

 

On Tuesday Night/Wednesday, PROSH was held.  PROSH is student run philanthropy that sells satirical newspapers in order to raise money for charity.  PROSH actually starts the night before, where people start to party all night long.  Around 5:00 AM people head over to UWA and get papers and a tin then hit the busses to go all around Perth.  We went to downtown Perth and sold papers for about 3 hours.  Last year PROSH raised $143,000, the money goes to local charities like the food bank.  Its different than THON because alcohol is a very large component to the charity event.  Last year there was a rave at 4:00 AM but it was cancelled this year.
