Balloonage

Whilst my school has a fairly strict line when it comes to muck-up days, my school also has some insane people. Let me explain I guess...

Although I wasn't for it earlier, Jacqui used her womanly wiles to convince me - and I'm glad she did. For the fairly cheap price of $120 -cough kick cough splutter cough die- (split between three at least) we had in our possession two helium canisters and a few hundred balloons. It was the least destructive way of terrorising the school =]

Accomplices in crime - Miss Hayley and Miss Jacqui

The result of about an hours work (it's actually damn difficult!)

Unfortunately you miss seeing any photos of us delivering the balloons room to room, but trust me when I say it was fun =]

First students to emerge at lunch

When they're happily prancing away you know your job is done =]

The only regret of the day is I got home and realised that I hadn't taken a photo of myself with the balloons, but as far as regrets go that's a joyfully insignificant one =]

Operation Balloonage - success

Also on that note, it was my last day of school ever yesterday - technically we shouldn't have come in today. Knowing that it was my last day I did my last gift run, handing out a handful of things to teachers et cetera. One of particular note was a gift I gave to my favourite math teacher - a great man. His stories alone kept me sane in maths, and he was best known amongst his students for standing out the front whilst the students do work practicing his golf swing, staring into an imaginary green to watch that ball fly further and further away =]

This isn't the final product, just the last photo I have of it

I must say though, it felt good getting down and dirty with art again - it doesn't happen commonly enough.

Finally, on the end of school note, I really need to update my Blogger About section from "Student waging his way through the stress and anxiety that is high school." now...

Bon voyage,
