Laser Tag

yep. that's what i did today. it was my friend's birthday and he wanted to go laser tagging, so we did. i thought it would be fun, but i had never done it before so i was completely inexperienced. i was the only girl. my boyfriend, who was there, kinda scared me when he started saying that it was like guerrilla warfare in the dark. great.

we got in and i didnt even know how to put on my vest. u turn the vest on and it gives you a gamer name like chewbacca, creeper, or the king. great. in the first game, i was on the blue team with my friends minus my bf. he went to be on the team of the 4 little boys we were playing against on the red team to make it even. in the second game, our teams were all mixed up because no one wanted to do a free-for-all.

we went in and i was totally lost. i followed my friend until i could scope out the arena to see what i was dealing with. it was dark but not pitch black and it was in black light so the white on my converses glowed. great. my bf and his friend wrote on themselves in highlighter beforehand so it would glow in the black light. i found out once we were in the game what they had written on themselves. oh teenage boys..........u can probably guess what was written and drawn on their arms..........yea.

in the arena there were lofts on both sides and a ground playing field covered in short walls and barrel things to hide behind. for fear of getting shot, i pretty much stuck in the loft both times we played. i tried to go out on the ground, but it was too easy for someone to snipe me from the lofts above. when i was on the ground i barely had time to shoot anyone because i kept getting shot at, and the guns take time to reload and then someone would shoot me again.

also, each team had a base, and if u shot the base u got points. i was too busy hiding to even find where the bases were. i still have no idea where they are. :/

i got a few shots at people which wasnt bad, and i didnt get negative points which is what happened to one of my girl friends when she played. wow. i'm a girly girl. so i kind of expected to suck at this. ehh. it was fun anyway.

we played 2 games. there were 10 people playing in all. in the first game i came in 9th. yay! in the second, i came in 10th. :(

one thing i hated though was how hot it was. everyone came out sweating buckets. ew.

afterward we played some of the arcade games that were there. i liked the car racing game and ski ball. :) we won some tickets, and so everyone was able to get a jolly rancher as a prize. woohoo.

so my verdict is........that i had a great time! and i wouldnt mind going back again because even if u suck, its still fun! although, maybe another girl on the team would be cool. im just hoping i'll get better with practice. :)
