My Friends are Dead?

So in order to teach high school students the dangers of drinking and driving, especially during prom, OCHSA decided to go all out.

Crashing a car and staging a 911 rescue routine?

Very nice.

Killing off my friends to make me see what it's like to not have them around anymore?

Not nice.

I like my friends alive and well, thank you.

pull you pants up.

Now, at OCHSA, we don't have standard PE classes and we dont have awkward uniforms. However, my friends in other schools do.
I was talking to my best friend, Max, and he was telling me about his experience in PE last week. He said that after they had changed, they were waiting for their teacher and while they were waiting, someone came up behind him and pulled his shorts down.
Well, this would usually be no big deal since it happens virtually everyday. However, this was different. In addition to his pants coming down, the perpetrator also got ahold og his boxers and pulled them down as well, leaving him naked from the waist down.
Could you imagine being naked from the waist down? that would be super awkward. I think that i would die of embarassment.
Thank god that that type of stuff doesn't really happen at OCHSA, or i think that i would be dead by now.

Awkward Elevator Ecounter.

I was in my Literature class last week, nothing special. We were talking about some research paper that we had to write when my teacher asks if I wouldn't mind running an errand for her (something about booking the computer lab to do some research, I think). Of course, just like any other bored student, I jumped at the opportunity to leave class. So I grabbed my friend and left.

 Now, my Lit class is on the third floor and the computer lab in in the next building, so to get there, we would have to take the stairs. I hate stairs. They are a creation from hell, sent here to try and kill us all! (literally). I try to avoid taking them whenever possible. If I get caught on the elevator without a pass, it would be way worth it. At least I wouldn't have had to take the stairs.

So, it being the middle of class, there was no one around and so I figured why not take the elevator now? And so we did.

Taking the elevator down was not a problem, there was no one around and it was great.
However, as we were taking the elevator back up, I really didn't want to go back to class. So we went to the seventh floor and pushed all the buttons (which was fun because buttons are the greatest!) so that we would stop on every floor to waste time.

We got two floors down before a teacher got on. She stood in one of the corners, looking at some papers. So we continued, stopping on each floor, no one getting on, no one getting off. I would have thought for sure that she would catch on and get mad but she didn't say a thing.

Finally, we got back to the third floor and walked off the elevator in silence, thanking God that we didn't get caught.

Concert tickets in Theatre Lit.

I was in my theatre lit class yesterday when something very unusual happened (go figure.) It seemed like a normal day, just like how every other awkward story starts out, but of course, it wasn't.
We were about to start class when a group of three Seniors behind me raised their hands. They started off by saying that they were trying to get concert tickets, but they were all sold out. Our teacher asks how this has anything to do with anything and they continued by asking if they could call a radio station at a specific time to try and win tickets to this concert. This alone was weird.

Of course, you would expect our teacher to say no and go on with class. But no. This is high school and so anything goes, there are no rules.
Our teacher said that the girl's could call when they needed to as long as they were quiet and respectful during class. So all through class, the girls were as quiet as could be.

Then came time for them to call the radio station. This was probably the funniest thing i have seen in a very long time. One girl called and just when they anwsered, the girl dropped the phone and the station hung up.

I find this ironic. I would have felt bad if i weren't laughing so hard. Oh high school! how you always seem to catch me off guard!

Senior prank (funny)

We've all heard of senior pranks either from your parents or from friends. So we all know that they can go one of two ways, either really bad and not funny at all, or really really funny funny and perfect. It really depends on the nature of the prank and how well you pull it off. Some pranks require a lot of preperation and thought, some do not.

My friend told me a story about her dad's senior prank. This one just so happened to have gone really well, and it was really funny.
So, my friends dad took autoshop in high school (back when autoshop was still acceptable in school) and he was really good at it. He knew all there was to know about cars. So two weeks before school ended, him and a couple of his friends disassembled a car, took the parts up to the roof, and reassembled it.
The next day, everyone was confused at the car on the roof and no one knew how to get it down. It was going really well until the administration figured out that someone in autoshop must have had something to do with it.
Eventually, the principal found out and they were caught. However, the principal was so amazed at the nature of the prank that he decided not to give out punishments other than hving them take down the car.

Senior pranks are amazing. Especially when they have a lot of thought and preperation put into them. The whole point is to have fun, make memories, and maybe piss a few people off. Bonus points if you don't get caught!
