Ring your friend before he / she goes to work and say " I'm so sorry to hear you got fired ! " - Act surprised they didn't know yet.
Wet a tissue with milk and run around holding the tissue to your eye pretending you stuck your pen in your eye, when somebody comes close, squeeze the tissue to make the Milk spurt out all over the place.
Place Cling-film over the toilet seat - an old prank but a good one !
Ring your friend and pretend to be from the local GPs office. Tell them they might have Newcastles Disease ( a chicken disease - don't tell them that ).
Sign somebody up to an embarrasing email newsletter.
Go around the office and tell random people that a particular person (e.g. your friend) wanted them to drop over at 11am - they will be surprised when 50 people drop around to their cubicle at once.
Start a rumour that your company is being taken over and loads of staff will be made redundant. Watch the onset of panic.
Put loads of Pencil (scribble and really build up the graphite) on a piece of paper and then rub around the eye and upper jaw. Then go around the office and say you were hit beacuse you didn't get the report in on time.
Advertise your bosses job in the local newspsper - (Great if you want to get fired !).
Get a universal remote control and turn the volume up on all the TVs in your local TV shop, while standing nearby. Try be covert so you can keep doing it.
If you are a manager or have employees under you, send people looking for made up items such as the dehydrated water, the hydraulic cement humidifier, the double sided transperencies, a fallopian tube, the blunt knife, a glass hammer.
If you work in a restaurant, tell all employees that due to new fiar trade regulations, each serving of fries or chips must contain exactly 257 pieces.
During lunch, say to your friend, "Sorry to hear about your partner, (pause) I suppose you had to find out about the affair sooner or later - the whole office knew about 2 months ago.".
Use a 3M Post-it notes placed underneath someones's computer mouse - ensure that it covers the ball or the optical sensor on the bottom. When they go to use the mouse, it won't work! On the 3M Post-it simply write April Fool!.
Get access to another person's office, cubicle or room, and move the entire contents of it to another location or even just outside the door. Another variation is to turn all objects in the room the opposite direction.
Do a few replacements ... Substitute Gravy instead of coffee granules !
If your last one out of the office, empty multiple packs of Jello or Gelatine into the Toliets - the result next morning will be fun !
Break a chilli pepper and rub it a few times on mugs and cups .. adds spice to the daily cup of coffee.
If you have a digital camera, take a picture of the toilet, then plug in your digital camera into a PC or TV (using TV-out) and get the picture on screen. When you see people coming out of the toilets, start laughing out loud and pointing. The person will come and see the picture and think you saw them in there !
Switch the signs for Mens and Ladies toilets ... watch the fun !
Put Vaseline on the toilet door at a railway station or a bar!

My Undefeated Fighter
My mind was wandering at the speed of light. A million thoughts bombarded my mind as I became lost in them staring out the window of my brother's car. What if I'm not ready to see him this way? I need to be strong. My mind jumped to the worst case scenario â I started thinking about an episode of âHouseâ where the family visited the patient and the patient started puking blood. I shook my head, eschewing my mind from this lovely visual.
My brother pulled up to the valet parking, gave the keys to the closest man in a red vest, and we ran into the building. The front desk seemed like a mile away and within a fraction of a second it was right under our noses. At this moment I realized, no matter what state he was in, how grotesque he looked, I can take it, for him. The lady working the front desk smiled politely, âCan I help you?â she asked. âYes.â I replied, breathing heavily. âWe're here for Junie Fuertes.â I articulated on the name. I knew the next question that would slip out of her mouth. I watched as the words spilled out in perfect harmony with my expectations. âHow do you know the patient?â, she asked monotonously. I knew the answer, but I never thought it'd mean this much until now. It was my key for me to see him during a time where he desperately needs us. It was like I was in a bad version of âNational Treasureâ where I need this one fact of information to get where I needed to go. I raised my head up at the lady, looked deep into her eyes, and said firmly, âHe's our father.â
I remember sitting in a bus after school when all of a sudden I hear a couple of kids having a heated debate. âMy dad can lift that bus right there!â, the boy pointed at the transit bus stagnant right next to us. âWell, my dad can lift that bus with one hand!â, the little girl refuted. Since I was little, I knew, that my father couldn't do that, but I wanted to join in their little feud. I wanted to interrupt and say âWell my dad can compute equations on the computer in less than a minute and type on a calculator without looking!â I smiled at the thought. I never saw my father as a superhero, but I knew that he would always be there. The way he always knew how to reach a certain location without a GPS, how he could fix anything broken I gave him, these were the things that I was impressed with. But when he was the one who suddenly became âbrokenâ I was forced to see him in a different light. I thought to myself âGet me out of this light!â. I wanted to be back in the darkness where my dad would never be knocked down, an undefeated fighter.
I have to write 250-500 words and I just got it to be 499 words so I cant fit anything more. Any comments or criticisms would be helpful.
Thank youu!

If your word-count conscience, I'm pretty sure college essays don't need titles. Anyway, I would cut one of the allusions, either House or National Treasure, in order to prevent any undue disconnect. I see areas where you can cut several words at once; "I was impressed with," "where the family visited the patient," and "during a time where he desperately needed us" are a few. These can be changed to "impressed me," "where a visiting family witnessed a patient puking blood," and "when he desperately needed us." Perhaps the phrase "at the speed of light" is cliche. I don't want you to think I didn't like your essay; I thought it was really good! But cutting some words can make room for other content and make the piece more concise. Good luck in your college search!
