With half yearly exams over I got thinking of some fun things to do in an exam. I also got some of this website http://www.jokesandhumor.com/jokes/212.html and wanted to share them with you.

·         Get a copy of the exam, run out screaming “Andre, Andre, I’ve got the secret documents!!”

·         Make paper airplanes out of the exam. Aim them at the instructor’s left nostril.

·         Talk the entire way through the exam. Read questions aloud, debate your answers with yourself out loud. If asked to stop, yell out, “I’m SOOO sure you can hear me thinking.” Then start talking about what a jerk the instructor is.

·         Bring a support crew like of the NO, Gary, NO adds.

·         Bring a Nintendo DS . Play with the volume at max level.

·         On the answer sheet (book, whatever) find a new, interesting way to refuse to answer every question. For example: I refuse to answer this question on the grounds that it conflicts with my religious beliefs. Be creative.

·         Run into the exam room looking about frantically. Breathe a sigh of relief. Go to the instructor, say “They’ve found me, I have to leave the country” and run off.

·         Every five minutes, stand up, collect all your things, move to another seat, continue with the exam.

·         Show up completely drunk. (Completely drunk means at some point during the exam, you should start crying for mommy).

·         Every now and then, clap twice rapidly. If the instructor asks why, tell him/her in a very derogatory tone, “the light bulb that goes on above my head when I get an idea is hooked up to a clapper. DUH!”

·         Come to the exam wearing a black cloak. After about 30 minutes, put on a white mask and start yelling “I’m here, the phantom of the opera” until they drag you away.

·         Upon receiving the exam, look it over, while laughing loudly, say “you don’t really expect me to waste my time on this drivel? Days of our Lives is on!!!”

·         When you have finished the paper start marking it in red ink.

·         Bring a large, cumbersome and ugly idol. Pray to it often. Make a small sacrifice to it.

- When you come flying down the mountain so you don’t have to start skating when you get to annoying flat bit, only to find a bunch of boarders are hoping along and flailing their arms as if trying to gain momentum and get in your way forcing you to decide between

a. Start to play ten pin bowling and knock down as many borders as you can before skating away because you know they cant catch you unless they take of their board which already gives you a 15 second head start.

b. Dodge them all but keep your pace and as you whoosh past have boarders scream obscenities at you.

c.  Slow down to a skate, which is the complete opposite of what you wanted in the first place just to be nice to the poor boarders.

- After getting off a lift boarders like to plonk themselves down straight in front of the unload area to do up your bindings and cause a traffic jam which can be highly annoying.

- Borders act like they are kings of the mountain when in reality us skiers have stocks which we can beat you up with before skiing away before borders can even stop too think.

- When boarders sit on chairlifts their boards feel the need to sit horizontally and cut across the person next to them’s ski’s/board which can be very frustration and scratch the other persons ski’s/ board.

…hence forth skiers win….end of story

did you know??

-Just $40 will help 8 children for a whole month and imagine how many kids we could help with more!

- some kids work up to 17 hours a day in sweatshops and factories for only 15cents australian a day
