How Not To Have Fun In San Francisco

[masterofmidgets]

So. Yesterday was our big dorm scavenger hunt in SF, and all I can say is I was underwhelmed. Things that were less than cool on this outing:

Getting up at 8 in the morning to walk to a very far away Caltrain station

Getting two stops on the Caltrain before somebody pulled the emergency brake, bringing us to s screeching halt. And then we got started again, and made it almost another stop before somebody pulled it again (we assume), and we stopped again. And then a third time, after which they made us all get off the train and onto a different train. Pain. In. The. Ass.

My group - was nice but very half-assed. Totally not into the whole scavenger hunt idea. I talked to other people in different groups, and they did a ton of shit - fountain-hopping, stripping, cross-dressing, buying sex toys, all kinds of things. We did nothing, pretty much. And then our group kind of dissolved - Vasiliy didn't come, Rick ditched us to hang with some other friends, Prachi left to take the BART to her parents' house as a surprise, and then I separated myself from the remaining two group people because I refused to walk from Ghiradelli to Union Square and took the cable car instead. I never saw them again. For all I know, they got hauled into a back room in Chinatown to be sex slaves.

Walking. Too much walking. I really can't believe I walked from AT&T Park to Fisherman's Wharf. And then from Union Square back to the Caltrain station by AT&T Park. Soooo sore...just my feet though.

My apparent inability to come back from a weekend trip without getting sick. Happened when we went to Beijing, too. Bleh. I feel tired and icky. 

As a side note, I should probably say that the trip was not a total bust, and despite my bitching, I did enjoy it.

Awwww, my group had a blast. Two of us temp. dyed our hair neon pink, one guy got a mohawk, a guy licked a fire hydrant and a dildo in the sex shop, we got several guys to pay us to get photos taken with Stanford students, and we ate the Earthquake, amongst other things.

"And then from Union Square back to the Caltrain station by AT&T Park" Isn't that about ten feet?

Not, perhaps, the way we went...it took us about an hour or so, not counting the time we took out to get dinner.

Glad you had fun though!
