Yeah, my last paper is today. Finally, the first semester of my university life is over.
So, what did I do today you ask? I played laser tag with my friends.
This is the first time I played laser tag, but I've heard about it before, mostly thanks to the show 'How I Met Your Mother' as one of the characters in the show, Barney Stinson loves to play laser tag.
There were 8 of us. And the goal was to score the highest points to win. The person in charged asked us whether we would like to play individually or in groups of 2. We chose to play solo since if you play as a group, friendly fire will deduct marks. Plus, shooting everything you can see is better right?
It wasn't peak hour in the laser tag center, so it was just 8 of us. So we went to another room to get the laser tag suit thingy. Each of them has a codename on it. It's just to look cool and to keep track of our scores when the game ends. I was trying to find one with the codename 'Sun' or anything fire related but I ended up taking 'Stealth' instead.
When the game started, I was getting shot left and right by people. And since the place was rather dark, I couldn't see who shot me or where they are. So I was like freaking hopeless in the beginning, just trying to find a place to hide before my suit reactivate itself and I get shot again.
Eventually, I picked up some momentum and started shooting people rather than being shot at. And this laser tag game has a feature where if you get three kills in a row, your laser gun will level up with rapid fire enabled to make you even more godlike than before. The rapid fire lasts until you get hit, and then you start from scratch.
It was pretty fun, I enjoyed it a lot. The gun wasn't that heavy and has to be held by both hands with slight similarity to holding a shotgun. I don't really have any problems in holding guns like this because I play Time Crisis a lot in the arcade and I usually hold the Guncon in that manner.
When time was out, we took a group photo in the end, and exit to check out the score on the TV. I was pretty surprised on how well I did. I got second, which is not bad at all considering I'm not an athletic person like some of my friends. Maybe I did well thanks to video games and all those hours spent on Time Crisis 2, 3 and 4 at the arcade, yeah, that's it!
Other than that, I went home, and spend all of my time watching Youtube videos that I wanted to watch but couldn't due to exams. And that's how it is.
Before I end this, I knew from the beginning that Romney will not beat Obama during the presidential election. So when I heard the news about Obama's victory after exam, I was like 'just as expected'.
That's all for now.
