ISP week - aka "don't do homework, do random fun stuff instead"

So this week we're supposed to be working on our ISP (Integrated Seminar Project) research papers. Since there is no class time involved in this, it feels like we have a "free" week. Which we kind of do, kind of don't. Well, ok, we don't, but we're not doing so much work as we are a bunch of fun, random things instead. :)

This is Anela's last week of being a teenager, and she she instigated this week of randomness. We started it by sleeping on the porch during the weekend, then that led to making a slide on the stairs (so fun), and they built a fort the other night in the classroom and slept in it.

Yesterday we went paintballing. That was so much fun! I had never been before, and I almost didn't go. Glad I did now. They have a really sweet "course" just a couple blocks away from the Old Convent, and they let us all do it for super cheap - $10 NZD, which is like $5 USD. We played capture the flag, where I felt like I was playing real life "Call of Duty 4", and then splatter hut, which was basically where 1 team pummels the other team who are inside a hut. That was my favorite. :) Got some good welts from it, but it was so worth it.





Then today was Tommy's birthday, so we all played live pac-man, Mario Kart, and Mortal Combat. So much fun! We used wheelbarrows (real and man-wheelbarrows), scooters, and jump ropes for our "karts" in Mario Kart, hahaha. then we had mud pie for dessert. yummm.


Tomorrow I will work on my paper....I will...maybe. :P
