Causing Trouble

It seems that every year the high school seniors toilet paper Pastor Andy's office as a last "good bye" and "thank you." Some of college kids do it too, before going back to school, and Dave just TPed Andy's office last month when he left.

So being the good youth leader that I am, I had to follow in this "good-bye" tradition. I would hate for Pastor Andy to think I didn't enjoy helping with Youth Group the past year and half.

I went above and beyond the call of duty. Anybody can spend $2 on toilet paper and decorate an office. But it takes real dedication to spend $10 on 400 dixie cups (yes things in Cascade are expensive), and then spend 2 hours arranging them...

and funneling 8 pitchers of water into those little cups...

Although I have always been an innocent, well behaved individual, I have heard stories of great pranks in my many years growing up on the Elim campus. It also helped to have my college roommate Chris here this fall to reminisce with...I aided her in many a prank, thanks to my RA key, but this was my first time actually pulling off a prank all by myself...

Although being rather in-experienced, I'm afraid I may have made this unnecessarily evil. I heard it is a great idea to staple the cups together, and that does keep them from falling over, but I had no idea how a person is supposed to clean this mess up...but I guess Pastor Andy will have to figure that out...

I did this last week, on a Tuesday afternoon (Pastor Andy's day off), with all the church staff knowing what I was doing, and the home school group was practicing their Christmas play. Even 3 year Lilly saw me, "you made letters!" and yet, it took Pastor Andy until today to figure out who did it...
