** Today Rach took me paintballing with her friends. She paid for me as her treat to me, but if i needed paintball refills then i paid. I quickly learnt that you will not survive the whole time without buying paint, So i had to haha. The first round i hid behind a metal sheet trying desperatly not to get hit. In this game you had unlimited lives however. But still i didnt want to get hit! My team won that round as we had least deaths :P **

** Second round we won too as we still were in posetion of the flag! In this round i kept asking the guy if i had been shot because i kept getting spray on me, and hes like NAH.. go for it! haha. But right at the end on the 10 second call i got hit in the goggles. Didnt hurt! Which i was happy about :D **

** Third round i got a bit more daring and went to a bunker with less shelter and was doing pretty well untill i let my but poke out a bit and boom they got me! so i walked back to the re start to get my second life. We lost that round quite miserably! **

** Fourth round was in a different location, which i prefered this location! We basically had unlimited lives in this game but once shot you had to stick your gun up and shout MEDIC and wait for someone on your team to come tag you. I was getting pretty far in a good location. I heard Rachel yell MEDIC YELLOW, and i thought ahh shes ptty close i can make it... i just didnt see Brett hiding over to my right. I made a dash got about 3/4ths of the way there and BOOM right in my right leg as i went to shove my gun in the air he shot AGAIN, fortunatly it hit the wonderful invention of a vest guard, otherwise lets say i woud have fell to the floor crying!! haha. Yeah, again i think we lost that round too! **

** Fifth round still the same game. I took a daring strategy of staying away from team mates so i can cover them, so i got a bit up hill. However i would not have been able to move any closer as the opposition were pretty close! I had a good position as i was the last team member standing, however that does not speak wonders for my medic skills! I didnt get shot in that round as the guy on the other team kindly ran up to me and offered a surrender.. im not stupid okay :D **

** At this moment me and the guy were a bit confused as something seemed to be happening over the other side, I asked, Do you know whats going on? and he was like a free for all i think, and i was like really? and he was like oh pants as by now i had my gun pointing at him and he ran! but i got him 3 times in the back :P. I felt OH so mean! but then the marshal was like okay all in saftey on, and turns out it wasnt the free for all just yet! HAHA. I appologised a lot to that guy! **

** Last round - Free for all. The 3 girls decided to make an aliance and we were allowed to pick a hiding spot! The guys had to stand in the middle and then run on the first whistle, then shoot on the second. Us girls just shot at them after the first whistle :P This round didnt last long for me as i ran out of ammo rather quick but i got one guy so many times!! HAHA shame and then moved on to Brett as he was closer andjust standing right in the open! haha. I got shot but mainly in the chest & Back guard. But the second i was out of ammo my gun was up and i ran out! hehe :P **

** The guys had what looked like some killers! fortunatly my shoulder hit from the last round only went a bit pink and te others i cant even feel anymore! However the day was a real work out from running up and down hills! And at least i had a really good time i liked it!!! =] **


** The End **
