I enjoyed that so much. That is an amazing prank to pull. I'll have to remember that when my senior year comes around! <br />This year our seniors were very persistent. They snuck into the school late at night and taped the door so no one could see the light inside. All instruments left unattended were taken out of their cases, cellophane-wrapped, put back in their cases, and then the cases were wrapped in cellophane. Bubble wrap carpeted the floor, as did balloons, streamers, and confetti. They created a maze using stacked chairs and black tarp, and cut small holes in it. To get from one side of the band room to the other, you had to go through the maze while seniors stood behind the tarps and shot glitter, silly string, and spray paint at you through the holes. There was a water battle at the end of the day as we were getting on the buses to leave.<br />At random times throughout the day one of them would blow a whistle and call out a dance move, and all the seniors jumped out and did it. They also rigged the iPod that we were using to practice our drills. Instead of playing Karn Evil 9, the speakers started blaring Uptown Funk and everyone broke out in dance and song. <br />The best prank of all, I think, was the one we were all in on. The band director was counting us off to practice the field show. "--five, six, seven, eight AND one--" Instead of marching, we all dropped to the ground and pretended to sleep. Mrs. W almost fell off the drum major's podium she was laughing so hard!Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01546923178102712738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787908647508741450.post-4288430545743979462015-08-11T19:55:49.225-04:002015-08-11T19:55:49.225-04:00hehehehehe I was laughing so hard during this post...hehehehehe I was laughing so hard during this post because I enjoyed it so much! =D<br />Being a Percussionist Senior we have had our fair share of experiances and memories... ah yes senior prank day.. hehehe hehehehe ahhahahahahaha sorry just remembering what we did and will be doing. Ok so funny band story involving prank day, ok so we took our conductors phone (she's really strict) and put it at the back of the band room under the crash symbol.. so it' s rehearsal as usual and then we've engineered with another teacher friend who is a friend of our conductors to call her at a certain time that we know will be a pp part of the peice. MWHAHHA so.. we're all playing away us seniors holding in mirth, and then we get to the part and then the phone goes off.. really loudly.. cause we put it on loud and it's 'Iiiiiiiiiiii'm Hoooked on a feeeeeelinggggggggg.. I'm hiiiiiigh on believinggggggg that your in love with meeeeeeeeeeeeeee" and it's vibrating under the cymbal and we're by this point cackling with laughter as the conductor goes "Oh ____ (insert word here) and starts rumaging in her handbag by this point she's laughing too as she's realised what happend as the principal Oboe (my friend Rhoda) calmly walks up to her and hands her the phone going "Nice ringtone Triney" (our nickname for her as her full name is Katrina) and she goes "you've embarrassed me so much." seniors *explode with laughter and run out of the room in tears whilst the rest of the band is both scared and amused* Hopefully that makes sense I was laughing whilst typing it. xD Thanks for sharing! <br />~EvieEvangelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06946413686778364463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787908647508741450.post-8512144327093489192015-08-11T19:52:43.983-04:002015-08-11T19:52:43.983-04:00Marching band seems like SO much fun!
