Violence was a reoccurring theme of TETA.
So were mexican cars.
So the day started off with me being extremely exhausted having just pulled an all-nighter to get my TETA projects finished.
Because I waited until the very last possible moment to do it.
What can I say? Anyways, bright and early on wednesday mornin' we departed, and instead of trying to sleep in the car with Nate and Waldron singing at the top of their lungs to songs they made up, I decided to eat all of the snacks I brought with me before we exited Austin city limits. After a while, we decided to play the livestock game. If you've never played the livestock game, or lived in Texas, here's how you play:
1) rolling down your window 2)screaming at cows and other livestock at the top of your lungs "HEY COWS! MOOOOO! HEY COWS AHHHHHHH!" and 3)seeing if they look up.
After we got bored of elusive cow sightings, we decided to play the livestock game with passing cars. "HEY RED MAZDA! HEY LADY DRIVING RED CAR! AHHHHHHH!"
...Did I mention we are 5 year olds?
Anyways, we get to hotel, which was fancy. Not the Driskill or anything, but better than I was expecting for a highschool trip. It was spainish/tropical looking, kinda?
Nate and I felt like spainish soap opera characters.
"ahhhh rodrigo don't leave me!"
there was a huge waterfall inside, alot bigger than it looks in this picture.
And it had MONSTER FISH that were nearly a foot long, no joke. I threw a penny at one and it ATE THE PENNY! ARGHHH!
danger lurks in these waters.
Then Sigourney captured wildlife photos of the wild Katie Sicking, at home in her native wilderness.
This was the coolest indoor hotel lobby ever.
Anyways, that night we all go to this huge dallas mall. All the girls and waldron wanted to go shopping, but i'd sooner die, so kevin nate and I went blacklight putt putting, where we just hit the ball everywhere and cheated in every way possible. The girl who worked there laughed alot at us, but denied us a consolation prize when we tried to get a hole in one on their special 19th hole by guiding it through the wire with our hands. Pshhhh, cheating is the way of the future, that prude.
Then we went to an arcade.
Ha! fooled you! I bet you thought Nate and Kevin were strong.
Yes, this game consisted of milking a cow.
Yes, it moaned as i did it.
No, my crack is not exposed, but almooosst!
They had a freaking DDR guitar version game. Awesome.
Nate torments an animatronic alligator at rainforest cafe and actually ends up making it freeze. yay nate.
This is me and my exhibit for interviews. Don't be fooled by the fake smile. It is 7am, and I am unhappy. I want to be in bed.
Sigourney is telling me to stop frowning. There's a great one of me glaring at the camera but she didn't send it to me.
This 'ere is Kevin's design fest exhibit. Note: he made all of those costumes by HAND, including the chainmail,
We all surprised Segourney for her birthday and threw her a surprise "party" in her hotel room. Then we went out to eat and she shattered her plate everywhere. That's good luck in Greece, right? Or maybe it means you die soon. I told her it meant the latter.
Here I am, playing with kevin's shield and sword I could not even lift.
Alas, I doth say thine battle prayer
So baisically, this was us before:
And this was us after:
There are way to many adventures and inside jokes to put in here, so this shall be the end. Yaaaaay TETA
