I was at a school camp, and the house had two stories. I was writing some sort of entry to a contest held here, and shouted down to the girls downstairs: "Any ideas?"
They replied: "No, we'll see later!"
Then a male voice: "No!"
I thought it was that horrid guy I HATED and shouted.
"Shut up, dude!"
(It was a teacher. I apologised to him later.)

That reminds me of this one time when I was in my front yard when I was a kid talking to the jays in the tree (yeah I talked to birds...well, still do) and someone behind me said something, something about the jays, and I snarled back this really sarcastic remark because I thought for sure it was my brother. Then I turned around and there's this horrified little old woman standing there.

Oh, I love topics like these!

I was a junior in academy and on a mission trip with my school to Mexico. The bathrooms in the run-down building we were staying in didn't have doors, so we hung up blankets as make shift curtains. I was in one, about to do my business when the guy I just happened to have the biggest crush on walks in and sees me just as I was about to sit down.... At least he apologised for it. But I couldn't make eye contact with him for the rest of the school year.

Another time is when I was at the library with my parents, younger bro and younger sis. My bro and I always had this running joke where we'd pretend we didn't know eachother when we were in public. I thought I saw him standing at a table looking through some pamphlets and I approached him from behind and started saying stuff like "Ew, who are you? You're weird! I don't know you! Go away!" When I looked up, I saw it WASN'T HIM!!! I apologised, busted out laughing, and ran outside to the car. Needless to say, I never went back to that library again...

This really happened, not long ago...I'd just left after an appointment at the Jobcentre (fellow Brits will know what I'm talking about), and I was halfway up the road when I realised my backpack wasn't on my shoulder, so I went back down to the Jobcentre to see if it was there. When I got there I found that all the Jobcentre staff were stood outside the building for some reason. When I asked one of them why, she told me that the building had been evacuated because someone had found an unattended bag under one of the desks, and they had to evacuate in case said bag had explosives or something. The bag was my backpack...I nearly died of embarassment.
For a moment I even thought they'd get the police involved, but thankfully it all got cleared up. One of the staff even said I'd done them a favour by making their day a bit more exciting, lol.

That reminds me of my friend!! This actually happened as well.

For my best friend Ethan's birthday, our friend made an "All-around-town" scavenger hunt for him. One of the items to be hunted was an old briefcase duct taped under the top of a slide at a nearby elementary school.

They evacuated the school, then brought the cops, firemen, and even the bomb squad with their little detonator robot out. The robot destroyed it to find out what it REALLY was!

My friend took it well, though. He wasn't embarrassed and he didn't go to jail because it's not like he intentionally CALLED IN a bomb threat. Still, a good story that would have made my face turn red for sure had it been me!

Here's the news story. I had to copy and paste because I had to go through a cached Google page that looked kind of crappy. It's followed by a link to it if you want to see pictures:


Suspicious briefcase linked to scavenger hunt
By MATT SWEARENGIN, SENIOR Staff Writer
DURANT - A briefcase taped to a slide on a playground at Northwest Heights Elementary School as part of a harmless scavenger hunt was detonated Friday afternoon by a bomb squad robot.

Police were called at 8:54 a.m. after a teacher's aide saw the briefcase.

The school, located at 1715 University Blvd., was quickly evacuated and the students were escorted to the intermediate school, according to Durant School Superintendent Dr. Terry James, who said police took an extremely cautious perspective.

“The procedure worked perfectly,” James said at the scene. “They all walked over in good order.”

Other school sites were checked and no other suspicious-looking devices were found, according to James. Parents were allowed to pick up their children and other schools remained in session.

Police learned later that afternoon that the briefcase had been placed there by teenagers as part of a scavenger hunt for a friend's birthday party.

However, at the time it was found, it was considered of suspicious nature. Oklahoma Highway Patrol Bomb Squad Technician Robert Daws called for OHP's bomb squad truck from Oklahoma City, police said. A robot was used to approach the briefcase that was taped with duct tape to the top of the slide. The robot was equipped with a pole to prod at the briefcase.

The robot tipped over while prodding at the briefcase, and a few minutes later two OHP bomb squad technicians, wearing protective suits, walked out and uprighted the robot.

One of the technicians then pulled the briefcase down from the slide. The briefcase was placed on the ground and the technicians walked away.

A few minutes later at approximately 1:15, a technician yelled “fire in the hole,” and a device on the robot fired a charge that blew open the briefcase. The technicians, still in their bomb suits, then approached the blown-open briefcase and learned that nothing was inside it, according to police.

People in the area had been asked to go inside or stay behind buildings for safety reasons, although onlookers watched from parking areas at businesses off North 19th Avenue. A couple of people pulled out binoculars and others used their cell phones to call people and describe what they were watching.

“It's not everyday you get to see a bomb squad in action,” a man said.

After the scare was over, police learned the briefcase was part of a scavenger hunt. It had been painted with glow-in-the dark paint, according to Police Chief Gary Rudick.

“It appears to us that there was no deliberate intent on the part of these young people to cause the level of fear and concern that was the result of the package at the school,” Rudick said, in a news release. “We are relieved that the event was not intended to be a threat or to cause alarm, but simply a result of actions by teenagers who did not perceive their actions would ever cause such a ruckus.”

No charges will be filed against the teens because there was never any criminal intent. Although they were scared to come forward at first, fearing they would get in trouble, Rudick said one of them even offered to speak to the press to assure people that the incident was not intended to be a threat.

“It would be difficult to prosecute someone for a criminal act in this case without some identified intent,” Rudick said. “Their intent was to play a game. It is just a sad commentary on our society that we have to interpret such innocent actions as a serious threat.”

In addition to Durant Police and OHP, the Durant Fire Department, Durant Emergency Management, Bryan County EMS and the Bryan County Sheriff's Office were among agencies who responded. Durant Police reserve officers were called in to take routine reports while the regular officers were tied down at the perimeter set up around the school.

“This all began when a school employee noticed the package taped to the playground,” Rudick said. “She did the right thing and we think the response by the school and emergency responders was appropriate, especially considering the recent threats nationally against schools, the upsurge in school-related violence and the unknown we were dealing with.”"

I was at baseball paractice last year, and I was running after a fly ball in the outfield, and I ran right into the fence and fell backwards. I laugh about it now, but it was embarrassing at the moment.
