So last night from 10pm-midnight, we played capture the flag on the main quad. It was incredible! Plus, they gave us red and yellow glow sticks to wear around our necks so we knew who was on what team, and who was playing.
There were so many freshmen hanging out there, too. Some didn't want to play, but most of them jumped right in! Plus, I ran into people I had met at orientation fairs or other Gathering welcome week events, which was fun.
AU is great, because since we actually have a campus (a beautiful one at that - even with all the construction), there's always something fun going on! Unfortunately, I didn't get any photos of the action last night - but you probably couldn't see anything in them anyway since it was so dark.
But my team (green, in case you were wondering) won 2 out of 3 games! Instead of playing offense, I tried defense this time. It was great to catch people trying to sneak around to the flag and chase them through the bushes, haha. It's all in good fun - and believe me, it's a blast!
Do you remember running into me last year and hurting my knee? LOL
