Pizza pizza

All of the other interns were great. We went out for pizza a la Romania. It is very simple, but I can see why this way doesn't work back home.

Start at 9:00 pm
Take 20 people
Add 20 pizza orders
Serve 2 pizzas at 10:00 pm
Serve 2 more pizzas at 10:20 pm
Serve 2 more pizzas at 10:40 pm
Serve 2 more pizzas at 11:00 pm
Serve 2 more pizzas at 11:20 pm
Serve 2 more pizzas at 11:40 pm
Have 3 interns leave because it's too late to eat
Serve 2 more pizzas at 12:00 am
Serve the remaining pizzas at 12:30 am

By this time, either everyone had shared or gone home, so the last 3 pizzas remained uneaten on the table.

Have I mentioned that Romanians put fried eggs on their pizzas? Completely bizarre!

Then we went bar hopping. I felt a little embarassed because everyone was screaming in their respective languages in the streets. It was pouring rain and we just kept toating each other under the awning. "To Romania!" "To the IIT!" "To beer!" I toasted everyone with "To the interns, who made the one non-European feel so welcome". Everyone cheered.

According to the Belgians, when you toast someone, you have to look them in the eyes. Otherwise, you'll have 7 years bad sex.

We were all careful to always look everyone in the eyes during a toast.
