Seminary Christmas Parties

This week in seminary, we have had two Christmas parties. For the first one, we played a box game. This game is where you shove all the desk to the sides of the room and you split the class into two teams. Then the teacher will call out scripture mastery's. The first team to all have that scripture mastery looked up gets a point. Then you all have different items. There is a box taped on the floor in the center, and when the teacher calls an item, you want to be the first one to put the item in that box. The person who gets the item in the box first wins their team a point. this game can become very violent. One time, when the item called was a gift,three people dove to the middle to get their item into the box first. The three items that were brought to the middle were a toy light saber. a Santa ornament and a picture on a piece of paper. One of the guys that went to the middle got hit in the head with the light saber and got a cut right above his eye. The cut started bleeding, so he and two other guys went to the bathroom and got a wet paper towel to put on his cut. Then he comes back in and says, "I'm OK, lets keep playing!"

Then to day, we played white elephant. That was a lot of fun too. I ended up with a mini stocking, some chocolate, a pair of earrings (which I gave to a friend because my ears aren't pierced right now), and a Santa ornament with a huge bell at the bottom.
