One Night of Lawlessness: Planning

Senior Year. If you know anything about me at all, then you probably know that senior year in high school was the worst year of my life. (thus far) I have elected to write three posts, however, that record the happenings of one good night senior year. One Night of Lawlessness.

This night actually started my sophomore year in high school. I know that sentence makes about as much sense as somebody saying that Britney Spears can't sing but we will leave it because I am about to explain. Patience my young grasshopper. So my sophomore year in high school was Sister's senior year. Sister's class was the very first class at our high school to pull a senior prank. And it was a good one. What they did was fill the halls in our high school with cups full of water. So they were lined wall to wall with water-filled cups down the entire hall. If one desired to walk through the hall they would have to individually move and dump each cup. Did I mention the cups also blocked the path to the bathrooms?

You clever, clever people...

Hilarious is about a fraction of what this prank truly deserved to be called. Also genius, and crafty among others. This prank was so good, that the next class to graduate decided that there was no way that they could live up to it. So they did nothing. My class was next. We had two choices, go on to live as the class that couldn't quite compare, or do something huge. Something amazing. And of course, something that didn't get us kicked out of school.

It was about December when this thought hit us. We realized that if we wanted to do something amazing, we would have to plan it out well. And in order to plan it out well, we would have to start right then. So that's what we did. We spent countless minutes (I know hours makes more sense here, but we didn't really spend that much time) looking up senior pranks on the YouTube and none of them pleased us. We would have to figure something out ourselves.

It was not long before we came up with an awesome idea. We would move all the desks from the classrooms and stack them ceiling-high inside the bathrooms before saran wrapping the doors. It was genius. Well, at least it was better than the year before ours so it was better than nothing. (oh wait, I just said the same thing twice because the year before ours was nothing...)

This is the actual check list that the class before me went through.

Now that we had figured out what we were going to do it was time to decide how we were to do it. We had to find a way into the building to execute our plan and get out without raising any alarm. This could be tricky. We are very lucky that we began planning this part early. Every plan we had to get into the building fell apart. Right up to the very night of the execution. (it sounds like somebody is going to be killed because of a sin they committed)

Luckily for us, as our very last plan (or so we thought) failed, we were presented with one more chance to get into the building...
