CFC... the first day...

Hello all, it is the end of day 1 of CFC: registration and pre-conference activities. :) I am sitting at my computer wondering why in the world i am still up this late as I will be leaving the house at 7 45 tomorrow morning to begin day 2.

Nevertheless, I am determined to blog my experiences. :)

The day was marked with funny skits, familiar faces, and a very fun/rather interesting/slightly confusing game.

It began with the talent show. Always interesting to see people dressed as hippies performing parodies of popular songs. :) But there where for sure some very talented people performing. I would not have liked to be one of the judges... the results of the auditions won't be posted until Tuesday.

Next to registration, then it's off for the gym for a round of a game that.... I totally forgot the name of. ;) I will now attempt to at least slightly explain this nameless game to you. :)

Basically, everyone is split into groups of 7-10 people. Each group represents a country. Each country earns a certain amount of money, and you can use that money to do anything from boosting the security of your nations... to hiring mercenaries to attack other countries... to buying factories to increase your income. The main goal of the game is to be the most successful country. It is INCREDIBLE how crazy the gym becomes when you have hundreds of people running around carrying colored paper clips (the currency) to different tables or to other teams to buy resources. It gets... INTENSE. Anyways, it was tons of fun!!

Then finally to the Sanctuary for worship and announcements.

Overall, it was a fun-filled, action-packed afternoon. :)

I can't wait until tomorrow!!! Hopefully I can get some pictures on here before too long. :)

Later Peeps! :D
