So the activity tonight was fun. It was nice to get to know people a little better and refresh names from Monday. We were split into teams based on the color of our name tags. We just did a relay with eight different tasks: water balloon toss across the pool, sing I'm a little teapot with the actions, one item scavenger hunt (draw a slip of paper from a cup with something on it to find), walk like a gorilla around the clubhouse, make a paper airplane and make it into a garbage can, find Hershey kisses buried in flour without using your hands (meaning your face), walk around the pool with an egg on a spoon, and break an item free from ice. My team came in first! Our prize was we got to get dessert first, which was cupcakes and strawberry shortcake. Both were delicious. The funniest part by far was watching people getting covered in flour. After the activity, some people stayed and played S.C.U.M. (you play with a pool table).

After we cleaned up, a group of us decided we didn't want the fun to end. We came up with getting a movie from Redbox and pizza from Papa Murphy's. We did the family deal (family size pizza, cookie dough, cheesy bread and 2 liter drink), another large pepperoni, and a free medium cheese because one guy has a starving student card. There was seven of us that planned this, plus a few roommates, and some people that came just to eat. We ended up with five pieces of pepperoni (Two of which I plan to eat cold for breakfast. YUM!), two cheese and one slice of cheesy bread. Not bad, huh? It was the guys. We watched How to Train a Dragon (it was the only movie left to rent) Such a good movie. I've seen it a couple times already and I still like it. Thank goodness for peripheral vision, because I saw something moving on the pillow next to me out of the corner of my eye and it turned out to be a spider. I jumped up and ran to the kitchen while one of the guys killed it for me. Needless to say, everyone laughed at me.
Then we sat around talking and Trevor decided to show us a magic trick with cards. After that we each stuck a card on our foreheads and tried to guess which card we had after asking three yes or no questions. One guy, Phil (we were at his apartment and I'm not a huge fan of him...he's funny, but he doesn't know where or when to stop. He's also kind of arrogant.), was asking questions that made it obvious he already knew what he had. We were trying to figure out how. I figured it was the microwave since he was standing across from it. I tried to see if it worked, but I'm short so I could barely see. I already figured that my card was heart. It was already my third guess and from the reflection in the microwave I could tell it was a higher number. I knew it was either a six or an eight so I went with eight. I was right! Everyone was shocked that I got it. I admitted I did cheat a little bit, but not completely since I couldn't clearly see in the microwave.
People still weren't ready to go home so we talked some more and watched some YouTube videos. It was around midnight when the group finally broke up. Today was such a good day, except for the fact that it was SNOWING. Hopefully the weather is a little nicer tomorrow (it could be cold, just without rain or snow) because Ally and I are going to the last Rugby game.
