Balloon War!!!

That was exactly what we had today as one of the activities organised for us as part of the orientation programme. It was fun. Surprisingly. Though it would have been better if i could step on and burst more than just one balloon. Even then, it was almost close to the end of the game. What's funny was that another friend and i were practically wrestling like monsters with this petite innocent looking girl who only had a balloon left on her leg. We actually grabbed on to her and tried ever so hard to burst it and after so many failed attempts, we gave up and allowed her to weakly jog away from us evil crazy people.

For those you have never heard of this balloon war game, it is actually pretty simple to comprehend. All you have to do is have a few large group of people, perferably more than 6 to a group of more than about 5. So, get few packets of balloons and have each player 2 balloons for one for each ankle. The rule of the game is that you can't build yourselves a fort to protect each balloon you have because after all, the winner would be the group who has the most balloons left and it would be of no fun if everyone were to only stay put to one place and only defend no attacker. So, as simple as it is, you simply have a referee to blow the whistle to start the game and let the war begin!! You dart off at random aiming for the nearest balloon and start stepping really hard till it bursts and at the same time you have to protect what you still have.

After a certain time, when the referee/judge can see that most balloons are pretty much gone, the game stops and the group with the most balloons left would be deemed the winner!! Wheeee~....

So there you have it about the balloon war. I may not be a 100% acurate as to how and what the rules of the game are but this was what i remembered from today's activity. Very exhilarating! :)

We had plently of other games to keep us occupied and had a chance to know other people from different states as well as different countries. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. SO much so that i was so exhausted and sleepy when they had the library tour. Hmmmm....Or maybe it was the guy's voice? .....Nahh...definitely sleepy from exhaustion. Yup...definitely.

Well, i am finally done with both the story the coincidence and angel of caffeine!!!! YIPPEEEEE!!!!!!!! LOVED IT SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!! And still DO!! Wheeeee~........................ Highly recommended!!!!!!!! But then again...i malas to have the links here...so, whatever!!!! I LOVE the stories anyway!! Thanks DADAH!!!!!!! A million thanks to you for introducing the stories to me and Yuts!! Love you to bits!!! XD

Well, i am now reading the stupid post it notes that is very surprisingly like a potential thick novel more than a shortish story like the rest. So, it's taking awhile. Can't wait to finish it too!! ;D Whheee~
