An all-nighter playing games!
So last night and this morning I was awake playing video games all night for a fundraiser for a group at school. It was $5 to get in for 12 hours of playing video games, from 6pm to 6am and food was provided. I had so much fun! ^_^

Three of my friends came and played for a while, and that was really fun, but after 10:45 they had all gone and it was just me, hehe. It was really fun though, even though I didn't have any specific people to play the games with. I played Smash Bros Brawl for the Wii for the first time last night and it was really fun, I think I got to be pretty good at it, and it's not all that different than the Melee version, but there are a few differences that make it weird for me to adjust. I played it for like 3 hours straight trying to beat one person and I never ended up beating them, xD. Then I played Rock band for a while and I got to being pretty good at the bass. smile I watched people playing Halo for a while, and I played a N64 Mario Cart racing game against two of my friends and I won, xD I don't usually win at the racing games so that really surprised me. And...I played some games of spider solitaire on the computer too, that was fun smile

It was really amusing eating dinner with my friends they had me laughing pretty hard, and it was fun watching them play games. I think that I like watching people play video games more than I like to play them myself, it's fun for me to play them sometimes, but most of the time because it takes me a while for me to be good enough at the games to be able to do a lot with them it's more fun for me to watch other people and figure out the story that way.

Oh man, it was crazy, that was the first time that I've ever pulled an all-nighter and it was without coffee and only on the caffeine of a Mountain Dew that I had at dinner at about 7:30 or so. I was already really tired, I haven't slept much due to having bunches of homework for the last few weeks, and yet only having gotten five hours of sleep this morning from about 6:30am to 11:40 this morning I feel completely fine and awake, and last night I also didn't feel dead or even tired for most of the evening...so weird when that happens.

Overall, I had tons of fun and I think that it was a really great fund raising idea, I'm so glad that I decided to go. ^_^ If they do something like that again (assuming that they would be allowed to, the room was pretty trashed, and I know that the teacher is going to be angry about that. It was a 'lock-in' at the school, so we were in the engineering room at school, which is big enough for the probably at one point in the night 110 people that were there for a while. We just got the lab remodeled so it's big enough for it) I would definitely go again. biggrin

Yaaaaaaay all nighters...they're really fun...*shifty eyes* smile

That sounds like a pretty cool fundraiser xd
It's alright if you can't beat that one person in Brawl. You were able to beat your friends in racing. Perhaps there is an untapped talent within you eek
Night is the best time to play games; no morning disturbances are there 3nodding
And the caffeine is there to help you through the night too. Did you get any chocolate or sugar to go with it?

Hmmm, that could be interesting...maybe that's how I can drive really fast and get away with it. smile
Yup, I had lots of sugar and candy to help keep me awake, it must have done it's job because I was able to stay awake even though I should've been really tired. biggrin

It was a great paradise I got to mess with lots of people's heads while they were playing games. And I convinced them to let me steal all of their cookies... twisted
