      Honestly, this is my first time participating in a Scavenger Hunt. I never knew it was that fun until I started to walk with my groups, literally think, and look around for the items. It was freezing outside; however, we were too busy thinking of the hunt and the weather wasn’t a problem to us anymore. We started to walk after the professor Berney counted.   
    It was really fun, but because it was my first time so I didn’t have much experience. We could have found many more items if we thought creatively. If there’s next time, my group will definitely use the computer all the way instead of walking under that freezing weather.
    At first, we headed to the library first to look for the Creative Minds Blog, following by the president Brian Murphy, the book named The Fire Next Time, and the student sleeping in the library. After finishing those items, we were thinking of the bookstore was the next place. On the way to the bookstore, we saw a guy wearing Converse shoes, and we asked him to take a picture. We continued our mission to the bookstore, and one of my group members found a cup of Jamba Juice and we took a picture. After that we walked to the store located in the bookstore to look for the Coke bottle, but there was none in our school. I thought of using a phone to open a Coke bottle picture and take a picture in the bookstore, but my group members kept walking to the bus station so I didn’t tell them. We continued taking the picture of the bus stop but forgot the Euphrat Museum of Art was right there. It was almost time and we saw only one more group walking around the campus. That decreased our effort, so we walked back to class and found a classmate who has seen Tron in 3D.
    The Scavenger Hunt really reveals about creativity. We have to be creative to be able to get all the items in time and not to walk all around the campus under a super cold weather in dark. We could have found all 14 items if we found our creativity faster. Moreover, the Scavenger Hunt showed the teamwork and the union of our group. In addition, many other groups helped us instead of compete with us.
