This year April Fool’s falls on a Sunday. When I realized that, my eyes lit up and I began to plan practical jokes to play on my brother R. I thought about doing this or this.. but no. I wanted to do something new.
I decided to make a banana that seemed normal from the outside, but once peeled fell apart into individual slices.
During my spring break I flew across the Atlantic to visit my family. My brother, R, and I ended up sleeping in the same room. He slept on a twin bed, and I slept on the ground. I was alright with that though since the flying cockroaches usually attacked from above.
I turned under the sheets, trying to fall asleep when I began to hear a loud, harsh noise.
At first I thought an animal was making that noise – a flying cockroach, perhaps. It seemed though to be coming from R’s direction, but why would R randomly make strange noises in the night?
Then I realized that R was snoring. I grabbed my cellphone, turned on the flashlight application, and directed a white light into his eyes.
Yesterday, as I stood in the express check-out line at the grocery store, a fight broke out. I stood there with my bag of Coffee Crisp, marshmallow cream, and cupcake liners as five women began yelling at each other.
The express check-out cash register was broken, and so the line slowed to a stand-still. Right beside the line was a booth where they sold lottery tickets.
