Socialising

I love that University of Auckland gives its students so many opportunities to be social. It's very easy to meet new people and make new friends with so many different events happening on campus, as well as through group fitness classes. This also extends to the residence halls. I live in Grafton Hall, and I met many people I consider good friends through the different social events Grafton Hall held during the first month of the semester. The Grafton Hall Facebook page also allows residents to post when there's a movie or a rugby game on TV, and so people with the same interests get to meet each other. I think my favourite room in Grafton Hall is the games room, because my friends and I play pool downstairs almost every day and I also get to meet other residents who are relaxing in the games room also. What I've enjoyed the most about my study abroad experience is that I've met a lot of students from a variety of countries, and through them I've learnt so much about their cultures and how they differ from mine.
