and he knew exactly what he was getting. the mac computer than he needed for school/work.
sssssssssooooooooooo i had to make him earn it!
i made him go on a scavenger hunt.
first he came to my carrel to get me once he was ready to leave but i wasnt there! instead, there was a happy birthday sign and a sign to open my carrel. inside was a bag of m&ms and a clue. brian at first thought the sign (which had an arrow on it) meant to open my water bottle...he was a little confused at first haha but he figured it out.
the next clue was in the car (i hid it the day before) and it took us to dinner as mi ranchito. the clue i was gonna give him there wasnt planted yet so i had to figure out a way to do it. lucky for me, he was in the bathroom when we were seated so i stuck it under the table. after dinner i asked him where we were goin and when he realized i didnt have the next clue, he started looking all over haha.
the next clue took us to the park where he had to take some pics of us before he got his next clue. unknown to him, i had taken a pic of the clue!
we next went to his moms house where he had to go in the back yard , and then was directed to the attic. on the floor of the attic was an apple with a clue taped to it. oops! wrong kind of apple!
when he found the computer (with free printer, duh) he was happy. not the omg-i-wanted-this-so-bad kind of happy, but the i-really-wish-i-didnt-need-this-cuz-i-hate-apple-but-now-i-dont-have-to-reformat-my-external-every-day-after-class kind of happy.
id say i did good, and he was a good sport.
my favorite part? the mild look of irritation on his face when he realized i had tricked him into coming to my carrel but trying not to smile in glee at the m&ms in his hand.
a computer and m&ms. who could ask for more? certainly not brian.
