fooling around

April Fools part two

The second part of April Fools was decidedly less active due to the fact that we all had classes that we needed to go to but nevertheless it was still fun! We found out that Derek had put sugar in not only Karina's sheets but in her underwear drawer, soiling both and forcing her to wash them before she could use them. So the boys got maybe a quarter of a point for that one since it only stands up to about half of what we did to his room not to mention all of the things we did to the other boy's rooms. 

Forrest left one last April Fools joke before he left to go home for the weekend which was to put a picture of the box of shame on the little stick figure picture of Karina in the set of pictures of people that live at our apartment. (1/4 point)

They all had to leave for play practice and as they were leaving Karina told me what Derek did and sent me out on a mission of revenge. I prepared a can of tuna, saran wrapped at the top so it wouldn't get things messy then poked holes in it so the smell could escape, I also put together a jar of pickled beet juice that I saran wrapped too with holes at the top so that it wouldn't spill. I grabbed my sugar along with these two things and ran out the door. I drove down to Derek and Rico's house and I snuck into Derek's room without anyone seeing me. I hid the smelly tuna and pickled beet juice in his clothing drawers and sprinkled sugar in his bed and underwear drawer so he would know what we were getting revenge for (half a point!).  At some point before the end of the night Derek turned off the water to Karina and Jen's toilet so that they couldn't figure out how to fix it and flush the toilet (half a point!)

It took Derek until almost 11:30 that night to discover the smelly and sticky presents we left. To get us back for that he took Jen with him and they went and bought 4 cans of silly string and a horn and they burst into our apartment at 5 minutes till midnight and coated us and our home in silly string (half a point split quarter for Jen as a girl and quarter for Derek as a boy!). We then joined them as we went around to a random apartments trying to spray them with the string. It was a really fun way to end the April Fools. 

After April Fools ended we went on a midnight run to Dennys as a celebration of surviving the infamous holiday.  

The ending Tally of April Fools is: 

Girls: 2 3/4 points

Boys: 2 1/4 points

GIRLS WIN!!!

legit april fools skills

We are over half way through April Fools day 2011 and it has been an epic adventure! The experience started last night around 9:30 when the boys (Rico, Derek and Forrest) left. Karina and I took off for their apartments armed with our weapons of mass pranking. We got into each of their rooms by utilizing their roommates then we did each of the following in each room:

1. Raisin in the toothpaste (turns it black)
2. Salt on the toothbrush
3. Food dye and pickle juice in the shampoos and body washes
4. Sewed the blankets and pillows to the mattresses
5. Sewed their pant legs and the arms of their shirts together
6. Sewed all of the clothes in the closet together
7. Hid random alarm clocks set to go off around the rooms
8. Put rice in their beds

We did a lot and thought that they couldn't really find it all but the boys threatened their roommates  until they found out all of the stuff that we did. It was a total cheap shot!!!

We had two double agents working both sides, the boys and the girls. Alli and I told the boys we were on their sides but really we just double crossed them and worked for the girls. We tipped the girls off to all of the guy's moves.

After finding all of the pranks Forrest, Rico and Derek took off in an angry cloud of "I am man I wont be beaten!" and hid at Forrest's house to make their plans. Calling Alli and having her come help them and thinking I would keep them posted about what the girls were doing.

Meanwhile the girls stayed at our apartment deviously scheming how to make our next strike! During the scheming we hit them with several prank phone calls, the usual "Excuse me but can I talk to Seymour Butts?" "Is your Refrigerator running? well then you better catch it!!!" and " Hello we are calling because we just got you application to join the Pen 15 club, we just need your social security number and size to get you put in our records."

Finally though we made our plans, put on our ninja clothes and struck out into the night on foot. We carried with us all the tools we would need to trash their cars. On the way though we took refuge at Tiara's house where we recruited her and two of her roommates. We staked out Forrest's apartment for a while checking to see what they were doing then together our party of 6 marked up their cars with phrases like " April Fools!" "This means War!" and "Girls Rule!!!" while also sticking tampons and pads all over it then pouring bubbles all over the windshields which are very very hard to wash off.

While this was all going on Alli was still playing the double agent and hanging out with the guys keeping us posted on everything they were doing. We now knew all of their plans and were ready! Alli made her escape from the boys soon after saying she had problems with her contacts and joined us back at Tiara's.

Once there we used a computer program to disguise our voices and to change the number on our phones so it would appear that Rico's House phone was calling him and we prank called them again this time pretending to be his father.

We knew that the boys had a plan to get us back and we began to devise a plan to stop them! The boy's plan was to Saran Wrap popcorn against our front door so that when we opened it the popcorn would spill down on us making a huge mess. Naturally we did all we could to end that plan. Karina stole their car keys and gave away their Saran Wrap to a pedestrian walking by. But Derek went home and got some more. Soon we figured out that we just had to ambush them when they were trying to pull the prank on us. So we called home and had our roommates turn off all the lights and Alli told the guys we had gone to sleep.

We filled huge tupperware bowls and a whole garbage can with  water and snuck down the road to our apartment to catch the guys in the act. We creeped around the apartment until we had them in our sights and we dumped all the water on them, getting into a massive water fight. We even got to spend some time staking out the boys in the back of Rico's truck, trying to figure out their next move during the night which was really fun.

The boys did get us back a little bit though, they covered put condoms on Karina's car's windshield along with gummy worms and some weird orange substance spelling out boys. So they won that round...I guess.

The night ended around 5 AM with the girls at 2 and the boys at 1. The boys tried to get us back with their popcorn idea but the lady that works at our apartment cleaned it up and took it down before we even got up that morning foiling the boys plan.

I even woke up this morning  when my curtains fell down off my window to cops hanging out outside of my apartment because apparently cops will fake arrest you and make your friends come bail you out for 20 bucks or make you sell 20 cokes at the local gas station before you are allowed to leave. I didn't get taken to jail but the cops did laugh pretty hard at my disheveled short shorts and bra-less appearance as I groggily tried to put my curtains up and failed for about ten minutes.

This has been probably one of the best April Fools nights I have ever experienced and the whole day isn't even over yet!!! Bring it on!!!

oh hello glad to see you came back

The sun is out and spring is in the air!
I am super excited that finally the weather is turning and I think that it will stop snowing once a week (knock on wood.) There is still snow on the mountains but it is melting fast. In comes the good weather and going for picnics. I even got to spend the day in between classes sitting in the grass in the school pavilion reading a book and soaking in the rays. I am even starting to get a healthy tint on my skin and I LOVE IT!!! Hello spring I missed you so much and I'm am so glad you are back!!! I plan to have a picnic this weekend to usher in the good tidings of another amazing year! Spring puts me in such wonderful mood. Right now I am sitting in my apartment with all the windows and doors open. I can hear some people laughing and playing catch with a football outside. This is the time of the year that makes me smile just to be alive!!! Happy Spring Everyone!!!

things that i love

kitty witty poo bear honey bunches of oats, yep thats my kitties name! ima skeeze.

So another persona that I had to adopt for my speech was that of a Cat lady, thank fully my dear roommate Karina could help me prepare my look and Robert let me use his home and amazing cat for the pictures!!!

So i'm pretty sure that being a cat lady is probably my call in life, other than that I think that my other persona that was created for the speech would probably work. If I was born a man i am convinced that I would be the biggest skeeze there is on the planet. For those of you that don't know, the word skeeze means disgusting, creepy, gross, slutty and offensive. It is a word that was formed mixing the words skank and sleeze. Urbandictionary.com defines skeeze as being  Someone who excessively flirts with others, or generally treats others, in a suggestive or greasy manner.

The third and final persona that I had to create was that of the super creepy skeeze of all greasy nasties. Thank you Karina again for doing my makeup and making me into a grotesque creature. Thanks also go to Emily for dressing me and flattening my boobs and to Kelsi for providing my man bling.

Altogether with the grandma pictures I have in another post you can see the three different characters I had to become for my speech as a part of the forensics team. 

spring break

Spring break was quite a trip this year! My aunt and I drove back to my house in Oregon, the drive over took around 15 hours but it was a blast! We switched off driving while my little niece alternated between sleeping in the back of the car and running around rest stops. Most of the pictures I took were of my niece because she is so stinking cute!!!

After spending the hours driving we finally arrived at my parents house. Marynell got to be the little farmer and     mooed like a little cow herself when she went up to the barn to help feed the cows since it was dinnertime when we got there.

Unfortunately my dad had to take off the morning after I got there but I got to hang out with him for a little while at least. I love my dad and I miss him like crazy when I am gone. He is such a goofy old man!

Can you see any family resemblance? 

We got to go to the beach too when we were in Oregon which was nice, there was only one day that didn't rain and lucky for us it was the day we went to the beach. 

We only got to stay at my parents house for a couple of days but I'm glad that I got to hang out with the people there and say hello to some of the people I miss!

We went up to my twin's house in Southern Oregon after that for a couple of days. Colt and Courtney were amazing for letting us crash on his couch! We went all over town, checking out his college and playing with his puppy Max. We even went bowling! Which by the way I have to point out that Marynell got a 97 and Colt only got like a 73 and they both used bumpers! What a little star! Courtney was the best auntie ever, she helped Marynell with all of her tries at bowling, they were quite the team! It was super cute! I love, love, love bowling so I was really happy that we could go out and do that together.

Im really glad that I got to go home and see my family and some of my friends. It made the school year so much more bearable to have them as a part of my life!!!

get off my lawn

For a speech that I am performing on the Forensics team at my college I have to have what are called visual aids. They are pictures that I show along with my speech that enhance it. My speech is a comedy piece and I am talking about grandparents for a section and needed a picture of an old woman. To make it funnier I had my roommates dress me up and do my makeup so that I  could be the old woman. So a big shout of thanks go to Jennifer, Karina and Derek for dolling me up! I walked around my apartment complex like this and got whistled at! I even got to yell at some kids to get off my lawn, it was fantastic!
