Nothing like Ideation and Process to come up with a lot of useless junk to stick in here. Honestly, this class feels like such a waste of my time and IT'S REQUIRED. Today watched this jem, along with.... at least a dozen other YouTube vids of the same nature (ie those crazy Japanese).

As much as I enjoy watching the Japanese be their crazy Japanese selves, I really can't justify spending as much time as we did watching those videos. Although I will say, Japanese guys are really hot (but we already knew that).
Of course, this was all leading to a point. After we watched the videos, we got together in groups and made up a game that combined some of the objects we had all been to bring to class last time. Our game was the best. I know I say that every time, but it was, compared to hitting a ball with a stick and verbal pictionary, ours was the best. It was called Focus Your Balls and what you had to do was throw various objects into a paper bag. Sounds easy enough, right? Well, that's before you know that you are first blind folded and spun around, had the blind fold taken off and are instructed to hop on one foot while throwing the objects all the while being assualted by a man playing the accordian and a set of naked men on playing cards being shoved in your face. The grand prize was a Barbera Steisand record.
I told you ours was the best.
We also constructed towers out of one sheet of newspaper, one piece of 8/5x11" computer paper, 3 feet of making tape, two chopsticks , two spoons and a plastic cup that had to hold an egg for 3 seconds. The record was 48" tall. My team got ours up to 52" That's right. We rock. Everyone else's was in the 30-40" range.
