OM NOM BRAINS.

Today was probably my favorite day of the semester. It was colder than normal, nasty icy wintry mix weather, I had an exam in one of my least favorite classes..

..and I got to roam around campus infecting humans and munching on their brains.

For those of you who have absolutely no idea what I mean, it's not that difficult: twice this year MSU has hosted an event for its students called "Humans vs. Zombies," which is essentially just a giant game of tag. It lasts for a week or so and can online be played outside of buildings and on school grounds. The idea behind the game is fairly simple: 'humans' must protect themselves and other humans from being infected by 'zombies' and turning into one of those creatures themselves. 'Zombies' run around campus tagging humans to add to their horde and thereby 'feasting on their brains.' Overall, the goal for each team is to have the most members by the end of the event. There's so much strategy, and running, and nerf gun usage involved, too. To read more of the rules or if you're interested in playing at a later date, click here!

The BEST part about today though was the fact that I was one of seven people chosen to be an 'Original Zombie." This meant that I was allowed to impersonate a human and lure them into traps made by the zombie horde or just infect them myself. Today, I racked up a total of 9 'kills' (turning a human into a zombie) to add to the horde, many of which were friends of mine or people I was able to deceive into thinking I was human. It was just TOO much fun, all day long. :]

Aww! This is a cute zombie that wants to eat your brains!

And to my fellow horde members, happy nomming!
