Video Scavenger Hunt - Zombies
By Abe Yang
We had our Photo/Video Scavenger Hunt a few weeks back, and now that we've had some time to edit them and add a background track, we're going to start putting them up on the blog! We'll try to do a series each day (but please forgive us if we skip a day here and there), so keep checking this space for new videos! We'll be kickstarting with the Zombie category. Which team is the scariest (or weirdest)? Team 5 (props: punching gloves) Team 6 (props: buckets) Team 2 (props: Nerf weapons) Sidenote: they filmed this backwards, but even then, I don't know if it added anything. Bonus points for attempting something different, though!

TFN: The Misunderstood God series
By Abe Yang | 6 comments
Hi folks, I hope you guys are getting excited for The Friday Night this week! It's gonna be especially awesome because it's hosted by the UPs. That's right -- from dinner, to icebreakers, to skits, to the post-game time -- the end-to-end user experience (minus the actual message) will be led by the juniors and seniors! To whet your appetite, here's a trailer created by -- you guessed it -- the UPs! (Unlike what's stated in the video, TFN really starts at 6:30, not at 7.) Trailer #1 Trailer #2 Trailer #3

Recap: Sisters Night!
By Simin Zhong
For this past Friday night, all the sisters got together at Eunice's house for bible study. We first started the night with yummy DIY style sushi wrap and the game "Guess Who I Am". Some of the baby/middle-school pictures are just so hard to guess!Afterward, Eunice gave us a bible study on how God has a great vision for each one of our lives. This year, we got to have the sister panel where some Junior sisters share about how their relationships with one another had deepen throughout the years and how they were encouraged by the growth of each other. Then, we got to work together to create a beautiful mosaic. At last we ended the night with fun games and chocolate Fondue! Hope to see you next time!

Recap: Brothers Night
By Andrew Robertson
Last Friday the brothers went to the Grove for our A2F brothers night. After the message we had an awesome time of games including a new one called raiders of the lost ark, and no it had nothing to do with the movie, except maybe that there was an ark. Then we had some free time to play basketball to round out the night. We had an awesome time and if you missed out there's much more fun to be had at our weekly bible study at 6:30 MSE 104 come and join us!!!

Recap: Spring Welcome Night
By Vanessa Amadi
The Spring 2013 Welcome Night was a great way to kick off the quarter. Starting the night off with really great Korean BBQ and a series of different icebreakers, we were able to start the night off right. Let’s not forget the amazing skit that really resonates with many students. Next up we heard a though provoking message given by Steve. And last but certainly not least the amazing band who led the praise and worship. Overall it was a great way to start off the quarter.

Recap: Freshman KBBQ & Endeavor Trip
By Ernestine Letro | 2 comments
9.99 are you outta your mind? Yup – that’s how much we paid for limitless, all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ this past wknd, look at that marinated yumminess below! Had a blast getting to know one another and also getting to know one another’s appetite real well. Our table did well with all the girls, we ate more dishes than the guys at the other end! But DK, Tye and Harvey packed it in! Then we went on an “endeavor” to go see the awesome and humongo space shuttle – “Endeavor”! It made it out to space and back 25 times! Wow! Here’s some superhuman powers I’d like to point out: Well, that’s a wrap! Join us next time if you’re feeling like you missed out big time! ;) It was quite an endeavor but worth every succulent Korean bbq beef brisket piece! Mmmm yum!
