So the other night all of us went out to dinner but Mason had homework and decided to that it would be smart to stay home. Tim decided to give him some money to get some food for dinner. Mason has been craving Chinese food ever since I have been here so he walked down to the restaurant that was near us to get it to go. The woman told him how much it would be and then he took out his money to pay. The woman then informed him that she could not accept this money. He sat there kind of confused and kept asking why not!? The lady then informed him that it was Chinese money and they couldn't take that money even though they were a Chinese restaurant!! Mason apologized and left the restaurant and immediately called us to inform us that Tim had given him Chinese money instead of pounds. Needless to say Mason was very nervous when he went back and paying with the correct money because he was sure they may have spit in his food .
We were all laughing about this on our way to a pub that we were going to for dinner. Let me just say, this is not just any ordinary pub. But rather the pub that my very first friend works. At dinner we had a young girl help us out all night along with our server. She was so sweet and nice so we were talking to her about how we are moving to the area and don't know a whole lot of people but are excited to be here. A little bit later she came up to me and said "I know I am just throwing myself out there but me and some of my friends are going out in Ascot if you would like to join." We kinda all sat there looking at each other thinking that could be fun. Is it scary going with this girl that I do not know at all? She seemed nice so we exchanged numbers. (More on my night out later)
After this we came back to the house picked up Mason and went to The Crown which is down the street. We all ordered beers. Mason and I were standing next to each other and the guy looks at me and says "Can I see some I.D." Then looks to Mason and says "I don't need to see yours". ARE YOU KIDDING!! You can drink when you are 18 here. I get it I look young but really! I am 5 years older than 18 that means the guy literally thought that I was not even 18 oh man. Well I guess getting through three days without being carded had me believing I looked older here. Well that streak ended quickly. I guess it kinda made me feel even more at home here :)
Yes this was one very eventful night. Get back to you soon with stories from my night out with Amy
(For those of you who may not know who some of these people are... I am staying with Tim and Tracy and Mason is there son)
