RED TEAM
Boy, this has been hands down the best Uni holidays ever.
Actually, I've only been at Uni for a year so that's not really saying anything. I'd say this has been the best holiday. (that's a full stop) ever! Which goes to show why this has been so ill updated until now.
A couple weeks ago, a couple friends and I did a Scavenger Hunt. This basically involves completing a bunch of tasks (200 of them) in a time frame of 12 hours (9am to 9pm) with the aim to score more points than the other team.
This year, we had 3 teams of 4 running and it was truly an epic, epic day! Here's a quick low down of the highlights of our day for your enjoyment and ours. RED TEAM FOR THE WIN!
Highlight 1: Mcdonalds! The epitome of globalisation.. and thus a must for mischief making.
Task #1: See how many cups of water you can order from Maccas. A point extra for every cup you then drink.
...Completed! Each of our 4 members asked for 4 cups of water = 16 and they were drunk, with much toilet breaks.
Task #2: Eat a Bacon McFlurry
...Completed! As you can see..not as bad as we thought and we had the whole Maccas staff watching us eat this..including the manager plus a bunch of random girls who heard me order.
Task #3: Break down in the Maccas drivethrough. Bonus points for every minute you stay there.
...Completed! No photos unfortunately.... but we didn't get more than about 4 minutes. Still.. SCORE!
Highlight 2: Get a radio DJ to say a secret message on air!
Done and done! It was so cool. The whole convo with the radio DJ of i98FM was played on air... including the secret message "Red Team will throw a fish through your window!"
Highlight 3: Post a paper plate to Savanna
...done and done! She got it in the mail a couple days later... I've censored the photo so she don't kill me...
Highlight 4: Cool photos
Task: Myspace pose in public bathroom!
Ok..maybe not a HIGHLIGHT per se... but it's a cute photo! =]
Task: Take the best "See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil" photo
Highlight 5: The EPIC car battle
After spotting rival "Pink team's car", an illegal u turn followed by a bit of a car chase followed. We pulled up next to them and completed Task: Throw a fish through the open window of a rival team's car.
Except they smartly didn't have their window down... so it just flopped and bounced over their car and onto the steeet.
What then followed in the quieter streets of my house is what I can only call a Food Fight between 2 cars as we threw whipped cream pies at their car and they threw what I think was some kinda bready cake. Yes. They threw BREAD at the BREADVAN. Pink team then fled lest they suffer our wrath!
Epic beyond measure?! You betcha! Did we get it on video? NO! DAMMIT.
There was so many more highlights like you have no idea. But these are the only ones I can really tell using photos. Most of the tasks were captured on video. Video or photo, we have some pretty great memories of things that we did...
Jess was the lucky team member to get a radical haircut (from me lol) A fake arm cast constructed out of paper and glue was signed by many randoms, and worn uncomfortably for the whole hot day by Elira, a 3-legged race was had through the local shopping centre, I was toilet paper mummified with the roll of toilet paper we needed to collect from a public toilet, a genuine attempt to call the Prime Minister... failed, and I tripped while holding a cake, landing on said cake. We also know now never to attempt to finish a tin of SPAM!
Ahhh.... and oh who won, you ask?!?!
RED TEAM CONQUERS AGAIN!!!!!! YEEEEW!!!! And white team owes our team dessert...
