one more in the bag

So the big Singapore Military History project presentation was today and I'm actually pretty happy with the way it turned out. Ex-friggin-hausted but this was definitely something to remember. Unsurprising frankly when you have:

Beer
4 pseudo drunk pseudo Aussies
8 pseudo drunk pseudo Brits
8 pseudo drunk pseudo Yanks
8 cranky pseudo Japs
1 rather large bar fight
1 cardiac arrest and subsequent death
1 stabbing in the bathroom
And an Arsenal, Man U, Chelski and Liverpool fan in the same room.
Oh and seppuku suicide too.


Did I mention beer?

My lecturerer hates over-the-top artificial and scripted stuff so this presentation was essentially one humongous debate. Ok think moots if you're a lawyer. We were given a case and then different groups in the class had to take up the roles of the factions involved and I have to admit there ain't no better way of learning history than actually BEING part of it. Or at least pretending to be.
