Start Tripping consists of looking up at one star, spinning around in fast circles, and then someone flashing a light in your face. Because you are dizzy, your equilibrium is all thrown off. Because of the flash, you can't see. These two things combined result in you falling over.
Some of my friends were able to run a good distance before toppling. Corey on the other hand couldn't make it one step. Truth be told, I couldn't make it far either.
We discovered that the pictures and experience was better when one flashed themselves. Unfortunately, I still only got a picture of the top of my head.
Last night for the freshmen/sophomore social we went start tripping. I was hesitant to participate because when I went on my "birthday" I was dizzy the rest of the night. I caved to peer pressure. Before I began spinning, I threw my keys to Rob Shields. I thought he was looking directly at me, but I was mistaken and my keys hit him directly in the face. I felt so terrible!!! Beyond that, my second star tripping experience was a success. Again I spun, again I was flashed, and again I fell. While I was recovering on the ground, Christian Mullis took his turn. Dizzy and blinded, he stumbled right into the Pasquatank River. Epic ending to the social.
