April Fool's Day--I'm starting a blog!

Today is a fabulous day. The day where the joke-ster side comes out of everyone and wreaks havoc on the world. Well, at the very least, some people have a nice chuckle. So, for the start of my "comedic" blog, and because it is April Fool's Day, I will recount some of my favorite, personal pranks. [The following post won't contain much self-created humor, but hopefully my future posts will]

When I was 6, I discovered the wonderful day that is April Fool's. I gathered my 2 best friends, playing on the "big tree" (our favorite past-time) and pretending our bikes were ice-cream trucks. Breaking my prank-virginity hymen, for the next car that would pass by, I would pretend to have fallen off my bike--you know, the usual stuff like crying, grabbing my knee, and whimpering (a pretty immature and under-developed prank, but nonetheless awesome for a 6 year old). Since there was a large gap in age of the children, we had a high-school aged girl on the street who would babysit us youngin's. The high-school girl was coming home from school and saw me on the side of the street. As a good actress at the age of 6, she believed that I had broken my leg--apparently, she wasn't the type of person cut out for med-school. She ran up to me and almost called an ambulance. I'd say that was a successful prank.

Around 12, I used a pre-made prank from a joke book I received as a present from my best-friend forever--by high school, we were more like acquaintances. I put black electrical tape around the sink-spray. When the sink was turned on, the spray was active and would get the unsuspecting sink-user soaked. My mom was not happy.
Sidenote: The results are like a mini wet t-shirt contest, so it'd be perfect for a frat party [Feel free to use this next year] --> Also, I take no responsibility for the events that occur afterwards.

Of all the pranks I've pulled, the one I'm most proud of involved my 8th grade social studies teacher. It was the time of year when grades were being posted, and I asked my teacher if she could make-up a fake gradebook for me, assigning me all F's and D's, that I could turn in to my mom. Back in the day, my mom was a stereotypical Asian mom who would ground me for getting a B+. I made sure to print off a legit copy of my grades, though, so that I wouldn't be beaten.

Since those happened so long ago, it's ok for me to write them online. However, the pranks of the past 7 or so years are currently confidential. [And my creativity has since dwindled, which isn't saying much]

Heck, this will probably be my last post ever on this blog, since I can't come up with anything better anyways. And I'm lazy. Happy April Fool's Day!
