5th Grade Back in the 5th grade my friends and I played basketball. One night we had another basketball game but it was a couple hours after school was out. So the girls in my class that played and the boys that stayed after school to watch our game were all bored with nothing to do. For a while we walked around town played in the park, got some food from the gas station, and did whatever else we could find amusing at the time. After about forty-five minutes of not doing much of anything my friend Sammy asked “Hey you guys what about the youth center at the church?”
I replied “Yeah, why not, we could at least watch a movie or something.” So we all decided to walk on down to the other side of town to the church’s youth center building. Once we got to the youth center, we just kind of lounged around ate some food, and watched a little bit of TV. Then, when we least expected it, the boys came running in from one of the other rooms with ping pong balls and paddles in their hands. Before we had a chance to get away from them, they started throwing the ping pong balls up in the air and hitting them at us with the paddles. There had to have been at least thirty ping pong balls scattered all around the room.
So we girls were determined to get payback on the boys. We gathered up as many ping pong balls as we possibly could and we each grabbed a paddle, as we chased the boys down the hallway and into another room, we unleashed as many ping pong balls onto them as we could. After that the boys started throwing whatever they were able to find at us, there were books, pieces from board games, and ping pong balls all over the youth center.
Once our battle came to an end because it was time to go back to the school and get ready for our game, we quickly threw whatever we could of the stuff we had thrown all around the youth center back into random drawers hoping nobody would notice all the

    I learned a lesson all the way back in first grade, and that lesson has stuck with me ever since. I was coming in from recess, and I was talking to a friend of mine off to my left. Unfortunately, I was not watching where I was going. I kept barely taking glances of what was in front of me, and that was a huge mistake. Someone was running behind me, and wasn’t watching where they were going either. As I approached the building I heard yelling, but thought nothing of it. After all, recess had just finished, so obviously kids would be yelling, right? It turns out some kids had been playing tag, and decided to play until they got inside. One that was still running away, because God forbid he’d be “it,” was Nick.…

    There was some funny lunch table talk, as always. One of the kids told some of the others that “Satan is a white baby.” I am not totally sure where that statement came from, but there was an outcry of both acceptance and disagreement by several other children about it. I bet it was something one of them saw on a TV show or movie they were too…

    It was a fun game to watch, as we all thought about us playing on that court the next day. It was finally game day, and we had to play Stewartville, 2nd place from Minnesota. They were athletic, but we ended up winning the close match. Our next rival was the Bismark Thunder, 1st in North Dakota and last year's national champions. We were nervous since the were taller, stronger, faster, and just better than us. We lost to them, but we were fired up to play for 3rd place. The team headed over to the Target Center for the 3rd place game. Playing there was so neat, being under the lights, having them announce your name, and just being with the tam. We played Grafton, who placed 2nd at state in North Dakota. They looked like us, athletically, so we weren’t too worried. We came out with a bang, ready to play. Darby and Ellie pushed it up the court on fast breaks, giving us the early lead. Rilee and I played great defense on the post, as well as Marlee on the wing. Jenny came in and scored a couple before halftime. We were tied 17-17 at the half, and we knew we would have to work even harder. Halftime was over, and we played our hearts out the rest of the game. Mavis and Paige played great offensively, as well as Taylor on defense. We beat Grafton, 36-34, with Darby’s 1:00 left, 2-point shot. We were so happy that we had pulled off that win! We spent the next hour at the…

    Once I was done with breakfast I met up with my friends up on the fourth floor. Once we got up there a counselor walked us over to the OAP. When we got there we figured out we were going canoeing. We loaded up the canoes and then we headed to the sturgeon river. Once we got there we unloaded the canoes and then we got in partners of two. My canoeing partner was Joe. We got started and then everyone was splashing each other. Joe and I kept splashing Robby and Khauldon but after a while, our teachers told us to stop. The canoeing became a race after a while I made it up to second place. We ended up finishing in second place at the end. We got done and loaded up the canoes and headed back. When we got back we unloaded the canoes and then headed back to campus. That night I hung with Nick and Jack in Jack’s room. After we were up there for a while we decided to go down and play pool. Then we went upstairs and went to…

    SeniorPrank

    graduation time. As a way of leaving their legacy behind and passing on the traditions, seniors think of some of the most funniest and craziest things to prank their high school, teachers, and classmates. From putting the Big Boy statue on top of the football stadium, to building a cement wall to block your school’s crossing path (haha). Others include things like putting your highschool up for sale on Craigslist (including the underclassmen in the deal) and slip and sliding across the hallways. Although some lucky students manage to pull off the pranks without getting caught and gain their legacy, others are not so lucky. Seniors who get busted risk getting suspended, do community service, AND even in EXTREME CASES can end up in jail until they grow hairy and old. EVEN WORSE, take trash in the cafeteria with all your friends watching. This is where I come in. My name is Anthony Ching and I’m here to show you all about the ways of pranking your high school without getting caught. Over the course of several years, me and my team of experts has been teaching kids how to prank their high school successfully and we have programs all around the world. All of them are taught by some of the world’s most highly trained professionals. Our programs range from basic pranks to extreme brutality in some cases. We’ve taught kids how to flood their school’s principals, teachers and classmates out with California’s salty waters by sending in sharks and other forms of life (who knows what) and in one experience we showed Israelis to prank ISIS’s high school while they throw off their towels from their heads and swipe their enemies. Within this program I will show you the three steps to a great prank which includes:…
