Are you ready to rumble??!?!?!!?!

First I would like to apologize for my lack of blogging for the past few weeks.  A few of my followers have threatened to abandon my blog if I didn't post soon.  So here you have it!  Enjoy!

This weekend marked a special event in the lives of our team.  We held our first annual STINT team Decathlon!  Each member of our team submitted two events into the pool.  We voted out the worst two (Crab Walk and Wheel Barrow Race) and were left with ten events (winners in parentheses):

1.    Trivia Quiz - US Capitals (Brian)
2.    Noodling Around - Minute to Win It Game (Rob)
3.    100M Dash (Rob)
4.    Triple Jump (Dave)
5.    Chubby Bunny - How many marshmallows can you fit in your mouth? (Brian)
6.    Cup Stacking (Dave)
7.    Logic Puzzles (Dave)
8.    Pool Run Around - Racing around the ledge of the pool without falling in (Dave)
9.    Pool Flips (Brian)
10.  Pool Handstands (Brian)

At this point, you might be asking yourself, "Did the girls play?".  The answer:  yes they did.  Unfortunately for them, the men on our team were well prepared for both athletic and useless games!  Here are some pictures of the Opening Ceremonies and the Games!


Paying tribute to the United States of America!

At least there's one thing I'm good at:  Chubby Bunny

Cup Stacking

Logic Puzzles

Triple Jump

After a long day of sport, one champion stood tall:  David William Haluga!  I took the silver and Kori took the bronze.  We had a lot of fun and hopefully the tradition will live on.

Students are on their Midsemester Break this week which means no classes.  Since we'll have a little bit of free time, that means catching up on my blog!  Check back soon to see what else is going on in Fiji!
