Submission Winner #3

Winner: Stephanie Rathjen

Hurry! Run to the easiest hidden eggs! This way you can make sure you have eggs before you start searching for others. When searching for the harder hidden eggs, walk around and watch the face of the person who hit them to see if they give away the hiding place with their expression. This strategy only doesn't work if the "hider" has a great poker face! The chances that is pretty low, ao you will mosty likely be able to tell where the egg is.

Winner: Alyssa Vaccarello

I open my eyes with darkness surrounding me. I feel the curved shaped walls closing in on me, and then it hits me. I'm trapped inside a giant easter egg! I forgot I had followed Peter Cotton Tail into his rabbit hole. He must have gotten angry because he stuck me in this contraption. Little does he know I have the anti-stuck-in-easter-egg potion in my back pocket! I pulled out the potion and gulped it down my throat. Moments later, I ended up in my warm bed.

Don't know what we're talking about?
Well, if you were at the Wildcat Writing Center's Bring Spring party last week, you would!
Students and tutors alike played fun games, like Taboo and Apples to Apples while they enjoyed delicious snacks. Although the weather was still pretty cold, everyone sure brought warmth to room #202.

We also allowed students to draw a random prompt, write a paragraph, and submit it into a raffle for a chance to win prizes. The winners of the raffle will have their paragraphs posted on the blog in the next few weeks, so stay tuned!
