  • Bingo!

    So on campus tonight they had a Halloween bingo, pumpkin painting and costume contest.

    It sounded like fun and as an adult I have little call to wear a costume in public for legit reasons (what happens in my bedroom at 3 am stays in my bedroom at 3 am) I decided to dress up and go.

    I had no hopes of winning the costume contest because I was a generic wizard and there was the wall from stranger things, an actual brit dressed as a colonial red coat and a couple dressed as mermanman and barnical boy but I thought bingo would be fun.

    Each round had a prize 10 rounds in total.

    So round 4 I have this uncanny luck. I call like four numbers I need right as the announcer calls them and get to the point where i have 1 number away from finishing the pattern. I 20.

    I swear for like 15-20 numbers I'm sitting on the edge of my seat listening intently and staring so hard at my card my table mates are laughing and routing for me.

    And then there it is. I20. I yell out bingo before I even finish marking it to a chorus of nos! And run up to claim my prize. A 50 dollar gift card to the bookstore!

    Don't know what I need from the bookstore but I won ^_^

        Grats, I know that for many of us a bookstore card will *never* be wasted =) Halloween is one of my favorite holidays because I love dressing up =)
