Alwayse an experience when I get free tickets

Hey everyone, I have been to 3 different plays this year; one great, one horrible, and now another great. I'll get to that in a minute, but first I need to tell how I got there. See as part of the honors college, I have the opportunity to see plays and musicals here for free, just so long as I pick-up a ticket at the honors college, and I got one for the show tonight. The show started at 8, and I left at 7:50. I was planning on 7:45, but got caught up in an episode of storage wars. I realize it's 7:50, and now I need to walk across campus to get to the theatre complex. Last time, when I didn't know exactly where I was going, I took the long way. I go outside and think "I bet I could take a short cut. This campus is very walking friendly." I never walked that way before, but theorized it based on a map and some experience with location relative to each other. I will not be taking rout again. Here's what happened.

At first, it was nice. There was a clear path, through some walk ways around some buildings. It was all down hill so not super tiring. Then it starts to go south, literally in that the theatre is to the south of my dorm, and figuratively in that it starts to not be pleasant. The cement walkways end, so now I'm walking behind buildings. The ground is firm, so no real complaints, but now it's 5 minutes till show and I can't help but think I'm still quite far. I pick up the speed a little, and now I'm down in the on-campus apartments. I'm not to far I think, but it's just, uggg. Some sections of my journey are paved, some aren't, and those not paved areas are in a valley, so it's kind of wet. I get a little turned around, trying to think of the path of shortest distance, with the minimal knowledge that I have of this area. I'm right there, I can see it. I'm cutting through this picnic area in the on campus apartments area, and I find this rinkey little play area. It had a little slide and a way up. I would have taken a picture, but I have to get to the theatre because it's in sight and I have 1 minute. It was up hill, and I'm a little late. I had to get late seating and missed the first few minutes, but that's for the review. Please take a moment to read it now.

Hope you enjoyed my review. I stayed around after the show for the cabalre performance, but mostly to get the actors' autographs. I was able to get 5 of the 7. I'm slipping I know, but the outfits they wore during the show made it a little hard to make them out in streets. Still happy none the less, and I helped boost their ego by asking for autographs, like in big time performances. I also ran into an old friend from high school. It was cool to see him again. After that, I walked back to my dorm, it's 10:30 at night, 70 or so degrees, and I'm just enjoying the temp. As I'm walking back on the long, well lit, not wet and through the apartments, way. Then I guess that that spring brings out the humans and zombies.

At my college, we have a thing called Zombies Vs. Humans, where these people act as either zombies or humans. The humans shoot the zombies with Nerf guns, and the zombies tag the humans and turn them into zombies. They have arm bands to signal who's playing and who isn't. I guess it's a real life left for dead. It started at the beginning of the year and gets super intense at the end of the year, so I'm told. Never played, and not to much my thing. Well I see these people gathered together, and it's late on a Friday night, not prime traffic time here on campus in the middle of the education section of campus. Then I see the Nerf guns, the big many dart guns. Then I see a clip sitting on the lamp post. I had my suspicions that this is zombies vs humans, but that theory was solidified when I heard this guy yelling pep talks to the "humans." I'm just walking by minding my own business. They won't shoot unless you got the arm band. One guy sees me and takes aim, then notices I'm not playing. He yells "oh you're not playing. sorry." He didn't shoot me, just took aim. It was interesting. Now for some real fun.

Our dorm had this highlighter party, where we would bring a t-shirt to highlight and then there would be a black light. I planned on going, and was really looking forward to it, but then I realized the play. Luckily I got there for the last 15 minutes or so. I didn't have my t-shirt to highlight, but I had my safety vest. Here's a pic I took.

My camera on my phone isn't the best, so you can't really see my face, but can definitely see the vest. There was music and pop. I had about half a cup of coke, and it was a bit flat. I did some "dancing." I use quotes because I'm not sure if you could call it dancing. I got to put on a song I wanted. Those of you who know me know what it is. The only dance I can actually do. For those of you who don't know me, it's the Macarena. I put it on and started macarenaing. Some people joined in and we partied like it was 1997, or whatever year the macarena hit it's highest popularity. Afterwards it was dovestep, or however it's spelled. I'm shaking my arms in time, at least I think it was in time. Oh well. Now I'm here writing. Well this has been Pokematic signing off and bu-bye.
