I'm a Senior

There aren't a whole lot of noteworthy senior pranks that happen in our school. Last year or the year before some idiots slathered syrup all down the stairwell handrails and my freshman year some other idiots decided to paintball the windows of our school. Those aren't good senior pranks, man. I do hear stories about how one of our pare-pro's vehicles was set out into the middle of our pond on a raft to just float around. I heard she wasn't so happy, but it's a damn senior prank. Pretty good one if stories of it were passed down through the years. Other than that, I can't recall any other stories.

In the beginning of the year, I was talking with a few friends, mostly about how fun it would be to fill the art room (probably one of the biggest frickin' rooms in the whole school) with balloons. Then we got to talking about filling Mr. Satt's rooms with balloons and what other teachers wouldn't be too angry if we filled his/her room up with balloons. That idea never got anywhere.

A few of my friends and I are dressing up as X-Woman (and X-Men if we ever do find a dude), but that's not a senior prank. That's just kind of a weird ass statement. More fun, in my opinion. I get to cosplay as Rogue. Act like her, dress like her, speak like here. I'm working on my southern accent through the weeks. I feel like I'm getting better, but nowhere near where I need to be.

THEN, last week, I saw a Most Shocking episode. I think pranksters or something was the topic of the episode.

A senior prank made it onto the count down. My mother said it was a good idea and I couldn't stop laughing. My brother was all like "wha? I don't get it ...." Because you're an idiot, Joe. Seriously, grow a brain.

But anyway, a couple dozen teenagers filled up the principal's office with POUNDS of packing peanuts. They went in through the ceilings to fill it so high that the principal couldn't open the door when she walked into school the next day.

Really, this rekindled my idea from earlier. Feeling slightly idiotic, but still excited, I contacted a dude with quite a reputation at our school to see if he'd like to be involved with this kind of matter. I don't ever talk to him, but oh well. I'm stepping over my self-given boundaries this year. He told me that he'll do the planning, but he can't afford to actually do it. Fine with me, as long as I can find some people.

So then I contact this dude I work with. He's a senior, quite the partier, and I figure he'd have some pretty awesome friends that would participate in this sort of thing. I'll have to refine details with my fellow mastermind, and then I'll employ the work of a couple dozen seniors to help me with balloons.

This is all riding on the hope that our principal will be amused.

BALLOONS!

I'm rather excited. I want this to happen.
