This weekend was pretty crazy. Saturday morning I overslept, and Colton woke me up on the way out the door to tell me we were leaving for paintball. I skipped breakfast and pretty much slept the whole bus ride there. When we were there I had a wonderful time, because it was my first time ever paintballing, and it was incredibly enjoyable. I shot multiple people in the face, and only got hit 3 times. My Kill/Death ratio was impressive. After that, we enjoyed a lunch and I took a nap before a soccer tournament. My team wasn’t the best team I’ve ever played on, but we had fun. Because we weren’t very good, I got to play striker alone, and when I played striker alone I got to try crazy moves to get by people and throw up crazy shots which almost went in multiple times. It was really fun.
Our soccer games ended when we lost the ball in the surrounding foliage, as they often do. To remedy this we finally got a new soccer ball today that I’m incredibly excited about. After the games ended, we enjoyed dinner and I skyped the family real quick for some wonderful conversation. Dinner was also great, and after dinner we partook in a movie by the name of “Hook.” It was perfect because we had just watched Peter Pan last weekend, so we were familiar with that before the movie. We watched Hot Rod after that, because it’s also a great and hilarious movie. I came back to my room and hung out for close to an hour before I realized the Butler Florida game was intense and I could stream it online. Tyler and I watched the last 5 minutes of regulation and overtime of that game, which was awesome. Then we streamed the entire UofA Uconn game. It was great to share this experience with a fellow Arizonan, because we stayed up until 3:30 watching that game, but went to sleep depressed.
Sunday morning I slept in past church, and we were planning to go to the dam. It was overcast, so instead we had a braii which was delicious and I ate so much meat. After the brai we watched the Bourne Identity. That was fun and a great movie. After the Bourne Identity we watched the Bourne Supremacy. By this time I was tired of watching movies and wanted to do something, but no one else wanted to do anything so I watched the movie anyways. After the movie we went to a church in the evening to hear Reg speak, where he said some interesting things but nothing surprising or groundbreaking. We returned to AE to watch the Bourne Ultimatum, which I was so over Jason Bourne by this time because I wanted to do anything but watch a movie. So Riley, Zach, and I played poker while streaming the VCU Kansas game and watching the Bourne Ultimatum. It was a great combo, and after the game I went to bed. A great weekend, despite the irritation at how many movies we watched. And for the first time in South Africa, a relaxing weekend.
