Week 8: Game Night

Although some people probably had papers to write or midterms to study for, we had fun playing games with everyone that came!

There was Scrabble, Mah Jong, card games like Mao and 13, and Go (which many wanted to play but didn’t know the instructions entirely). The game was just sitting there at first, until two people who knew how to play finally discovered it.

I had fun enjoying everyone’s company while playing games. It was a nice break away from all the school work and studying! I can’t wait to see you all next week.

Scrabble Night & Outing

Oh man, I feel bad for you if you missed out on this week's meeting.  We all got together and played Scrabble (though a few of them resorted to Mah Jong) and a pretty good time.

Then someone mentioned they were hungry.  Pretty soon, everyone started saying they were hungry.  So we all decided to go to the UTC right across campus to eat dinner.  We went to Steelhead's for their $5 special on pizza and got 6 pizzas.  It was so good and so worth it for the price we paid (though I kinda forgot what the total was).  Best of all, Andy paid for all of us!!! (lol, j/k we paid him back).

We did have a blast, but not to say we didn't learn anything.  Preparing for Scrabble, we learned a few new english words that helped our game play.  Aa, ae, oe, and eau are appearently words.  We also learned a few new phrases in Mandarin if we won, lost, or gave praise to the other player.  So if you don't want to miss out on the fun, come to our meeting next time!
