The Corona-Virus is Canceled??? - Kayleigh Simpson

-
Haha... Got'em.  April Fools, sucker.  Did you really think coronavirus was canceled?  Get wrecked.  In all seriousness, I think that the chaos of the coronavirus has distracted people from one of the greatest days of the year... April Fools Day!  For anyone who doesn't know what April Fools Day is (how dare you?!), every year on April 1st, people get together to prank their friends (or enemies).  Since we no longer have school to prank each other at, here are some pranks you can pull on your family tomorrow at home.

Number 1
Out of all the pranks you can pull, this one is the simplest.  The old "Your shoe is untied" or "You have food on your shirt" followed by zipping your hand up to their nose. Classic and unfailing. 

Number 2
This one is one of my favorites.  If you have an area in your house where you have pictures of your family, replace one of the pictures with something more creative.  Maybe you replace a picture of your sibling with one that's slightly more embarrassing.  Or perhaps you replace the picture with an image from the internet. The possibilities are endless.

Number 3
This one is short and simple.  Tape the sensor on the TV remote and watch as your family twists and turns the remote trying to get it to work.

Number 4
This prank is a little more challenging.  First, start chasing your sibling (shouldn't be too hard).  Once you have them running, lead them to a doorway.  Before you began this chase, you should have stuck clear plastic wrap across the doorway.  You will know the wrap is there, so you'll dodge it, but your sibling won't be so lucky. 
Alternate version: just leave the wrap out and wait.  Eventually, somebody will walk into it.

Number 5:
Fake bugs. Enough said.

Number 6:
Start texting somebody and then midway through the conversation, send a gif of the texting bubbles.  I swear they'll stare waiting for at least 3 minutes.

Number 7:
Another super simple one: whoopie cushion.

Number 8: 
Find a sleeping family member and put whipped cream on their hand.  Then tickle them and watch them get whipped cream all over their face.

Number 9:
This one is on the eviler side (you did not hear it from me).  Get a can of Febreeze and zip tie the trigger down. Then throw it into your sibling's room and trap them in there (so sorry for anyone who has to experience this).

Number 10:
If you're hoping to prank a friend who you can't see, this one is for you.  The infamous prank call.

    This do be funny doe. As someone who has personally done all of these things (including number 9, the boys in the changing room during last years school play got a very nice lemon breeze surprise) I can confirm that April Fools pranks are so good that it should just be a year-long April Fools. A JFMAMJJASOND(erulo) Fools if you will (you will). Although I do NOT appreciate the savage move at the end of your blog I commend you for the overwhelmingly quirky vibe I got from this piece. I may shed a tear. You are untamed.

Ancient Greek Heroes VS. Modern Day Heroes

-
Image
Heroes in Greek/Anglo-Saxon (I am grouping the types of historical literature we have read) writing are very obvious and much of ancient Greek literature involves a central hero or a supernatural story. In modern day English, however, the plots are less often mythical and more realistic. Since each person has a different definition for heroism, modern day heroism literature can be more varied. Ancient Greek writing is very often far-fetched, however. There are many similarities and differences between the two types of writing, but first I will run through the most significant differences. In Greek mythology, heroes were often religious figures, like demigods, while modern day writing focuses more on ordinary people. This could be because authors nowadays want the readers to be able to relate with the heroes in their stories. Greek writing had heroes that had the power to protect or destroy the people depending on prevailing circumstances. In contrast, modern day heroes are acknowledg...

My Brother by Elizabeth Hailey DeGasperis

          When I contemplate what is most important in my life, my mind is drawn to my 21-year-old brother, Tom. There are not enough words in the English language I could use to describe what he means to me. I cannot imagine the past fifteen years of my life without him. Allow me to start from the beginning.           Even when I was an infant, he never failed to take me out of my crib, strap me in my high chair, and cook scrambled eggs for us (at the tender age of six). He did this so my mother could catch up on sleep in the mornings and take care of me however he could. I only wish I could return the favour in some way. Though we have always been tight, we used to fight frequently as all siblings do. As immature children, we viewed every ordeal as monumental. The apocalypse would occur if either of us decided to give the other access to the TV remote or the pogo sticks for five minutes. However, we would always make-up in the end and...

Not Fate, Just a Coincidence - Sila Paniker

The idea of fate confuses me. I don't really understand how something will happen no matter what you do. It just seems very unlikely. I think we're constantly making choices that lead to occurrences. We make so many decisions a day that it seems impossible that fate can find a way around it all.  Awhile ago, I saw something called the Butterfly Effect, which doesn't exactly relate to fate but it makes sense to me. The idea is that a butterfly flapping its wings can cause a tornado on the other side of the world. Essentially, small changes can have large impacts. In my head, this connects with the thousands of tiny decisions we subconsciously make each day. There are people I've met or things that have happened and it feels like it was meant to be but they're just a bunch of coincidences that had the ability to change everything. Thinking about it, there are reasons that can explain everything. For example, I met one of my closest friends a few years ago a...
