yeps. so, in the morning me and my friend sat down, took a screenshot of the class computer desktop and saved it. then we did a back-up for all the icons on the desktop, and then deleted them. then we hid the start bar, and set the screenshot as the desktop wallpaper. and after that we wrote 'happy april fool' on a small post-it and stuck it under the mouse. all in all, it meant that whoever used it would think that the computer hanged.
while we were doing that there was another gang of us tying the door shut with nylon. like, for some funny reason there is a hook next to our door, so we looped the string around the hook and then around the doorknob so nobody could come in. it could open a bit, but it just bounces back and slams the door.

and after morning assembly our class split into two and swapped with the other class. in other words, in each class there were about 18 of us from 206 and another 18 from 205. mr singh then lumbers into class at 0750. he tries the door, and it slams itself back. he tries it again. it slams. and then he did it one more time before realising that we tied the door shut and that he could go through the back door. so he came in and saw half of the people were in the wrong classroom and the other half were in the wrong seats. and then instead of doing a double-take, he just flops our plan by going: 'glad to know you want to join my class. what do you wanna talk about? physics project?' and the whole class moans.
but then the teacher next door amused them a lot more.
CLASS: do you notice something different?
TEACHER: uh...you changed seating arrangement? ohno...that means i'll have more trouble remembering your names... (she's a relief teacher)
CLASS: *sniggers*
TEACHER: *notices extra person occupying the once-empty desk at the back of class* who's that? how come we have one extra person?
CLASS: uhh...foreign exchange student!!
TEACHER: oh, okay...
and then after a while she realises that something's really REALLY wrong. then she comes over to our class and says 'excuse me, half of my class is missing'
and then we go 'and how do you know they're here?'
and mr singh adds in 'do you recognise any of them?'
and of course she said 'yes,' in this I-am-pissed tone. so we swapped back and went on to normal lessons
until mr singh finds out about the computer.
okay, he solved it really quickly. he found the post-it in less that five minutes and then proceeded to click like crazy and in another one minute he changed the destop wallpaper back again and restored the basic icons and started his powerpoint.

english, english. a wonderful time of the day, especially on the first of april. we spent like, 35 (or is it 45? I can't remember) minutes pranking her.
SCENARIO: one girl at a gymnastics competition. for now, will be called A
SETUP: -the door was (still) tied shut.
-we had one person in the broom cupboard (for internet security purposes, is called B)
-one person behind the whiteboard (called C, once again for internet security purposes.) our three whiteboards basically can slide around. so if you moved them there are shelves behind. we took them out.
-one person holding on to the back door so she couldn't come in.
-the computer was still trapped, but she never uses it anyway
-the whiteboard duster was taped to the back of the projector screen so that when she pulls it up it will fall down with a nice, loud thwack.
THE PLAN: ms tay comes in, B makes weird noises from the cupboard and then reveals herself. then when ms tay starts lesson, we wait until she writes on the board, then the person farthest away will stand up and say that she can't see what's on the board, could you please move it? so when C hears that, she will slam the whiteboard from behind and slide it to the side to scare the teacher. then we move on with life.
the WHOLE thing was impromptu. we started with the door and the cupboard, and played by ear after that.
WHAT HAPPENED
ms tay opens the door, which slams back. so she tries the back door, which also doesn't work. then she comes back the the front door and pulls hard, only to find that we took the string out. then she comes in, and swings around a roll of mahjong paper to make sure we're not dropping anything from the ceiling onto her, and one girl stands up and says 'ms tay, B isn't in school today because she fell sick yesterday. she got a fever. and I sprained my elbow yesterday too.' actually she's in the broom cupboard laughing her head off.
ms tay nods and tells her that she doesn't need to write.
and then she turns around and stares at C's seat.
MS TAY: and where is C?
US: oh, uh, she and A went for gym competition.
MS TAY: oh, okay...
(AUGH SHE TOTALLY FELL FOR IT)
then the tape breaks and the duster falls and ms tay turns around and goes 'what was that??' and then all of a sudden, the class shuts up and B screams ms tay's name in this ghostly voice. ms tay looks around and goes: did anyone hear someone call my name?
US: no, we never hear anything.
B: MS TAY!!
MS TAY: no, really. I heard someone call my name.
US: no, we never hear what.
B: MS TAY!!
MS TAY: i think it's coming from the cupboard.
so, she goes over to the cupboard, swinging her newfound weapon called mahjong paper and discovers B, and we all laugh our heads off. C, who's still in the whiteboard, starts wondering what we're all laughing about and peeks out from behind the whiteboard. she sees ms tay standing there, so she justs deviates from the plan and slides the whiteboard aside and goes BOO. it just happens that ms tay had her back to the whiteboard, and she screamed. she really screamed. and when she saw C, she was like 'aren't you supposed to be at a gym competition?'
and then after a while she realises that "since C is here, that means that there is absolutely NO gym competition and therefore A has to be somewhere too" so she spends the next 10-15 minutes looking for A and banging on the whiteboards and heaving them around and looking in all the shelves.
MS TAY: where is she???
US: oh, don't worry, she won't suffocate. she's in a very comfortable place, just a bit nervous. uh, nervous that you'll find her. she's waiting for her grand moment
MS TAY: what? i must find her!
US: don't worry, she can hear you! just start lesson lah!
MS TAY: NO! I must find A!
so she's determinedly shifting the whiteboards around looking for the nonexistant person when someone in the second row, who will for now be called D, ducks under her table and crawls under the person in front of her and reaches out and grabs ms tay's ankle. ms tay screams again. for a while it looked like she thought D was A, but when she got a better look she realised that A was still missing.
so we tell her "oh, A is actually outside the classroom. she's waiting for our signal."
MS TAY: signal? for what?
US: to come in lar! what else?
MS TAY: then where is she?
US: in the toilet. if you want to find her, then she should be there.
MS TAY: *creeps over to the door and makes sure there isn't a bucket of water hanging outside. then she walks out and goes to the toilet while someone films her.*
MS TAY: *as she leaves* she had better not splash me with water! *swings roll of mahjong paper*
so, while she's gone, we shut the door again and tie another nylon string across from the table to the hook, and when she comes in she doesn't notice and walks right into it and practically bounces out. also, while she was out looking for A, another person hid under the teachers table, and she didn't notice her either. she just walked by, and the person under the table threw a ball of bandage at ms tay and she turned around and went "since when were you in there??" and the whole class just cackles.
and after that we told her the truth and somehow managed to convince her that we were telling the truth and started lessons, which lasted all of 15 minutes.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - -成功!!
since S&D was the same teacher, we just spent 15 minutes telling ms tay how to trick her next class and not be so paranoid. when we came into the S&D room our prefect (aka PIT) was like:
PIT: ms tay, i'm sorry we're late. our previous teacher let us off late
MS TAY: oh really? which teacher was that? I'll go over and scold her?
PIT: oh, she's called ms tay
MS TAY: mrs tay? who's that?
well, obviously she was just playing along with us but we were in fits anyway.
the philo half of the class got all the fun. they start the discussion, to trick her, they use the wrong topic.
E: ok, do you think it is morally right to prank teachers on april fool's?
MS ONG: E, can you speak louder? *sits down and prepared to take notes on discussion to tell class later*
E: ok, do you think it is morally right to pran teachers on april fool's?
F: yeah, I think it is okay, because in the end everyone gets happy, so according the the consquential[who-knows-what-cheem-stuff], it should be fine.
MS ONG: *looks up* is this the wrong topic??

EVERYTHING MS CHIA SAYS WAS IN CHINESE BUT HAS BEEN TRANSLATED INTO ENGLISH (for my sake :D)
EVERYTHING WE SAY TO MS CHIA WAS ALSO IN CHINESE BUT HAS ALSO BEEN TRANSLATED INTO ENGLISH (once again for my sake)
during recess, we all chiong up the 5 levels to class to booby-trap the door again. we hide the people in the cupboard and whiteboard again and waite for ms chia to come in. she opens the door only to have it slam back. she turns around and tries the back door, only that she can't open it either cuz our wonderful class chairman is hanging on to it. so she comes back round to the front door, takes out a set of keys, and just chops through our metres of nylon. just like that. and then our class chair stands up and goes:
CHAIR: laoshi, how do you write qian xu?
MS CHIA: hah, you don't know how to write? *gets someone pro to write it on the board*
CHAIR: thanks
PIT: *gets up* laoshi, I can't see the word. can you move the board to the center?
MS CHIA: *moves it. she's facing the wrong way, so she doesn't see C sticking her head out from behind the whiteboard she just moved.*
MS CHIA: *turns around to see C* AAAH! what are you doing here? go back to your seat!
so after that B, who is in the cupboard with a towel, screams laoshi's name. she had the EXACT SAME REACTION as ms tay. and then while laoshi wasn't looking, B opened the cupboard a bit and stuck the towel out from the door and closed it again, kiapping the towel in the door of the cupboard. laoshi turns around and gets a shock when she sees the random appearing towel. and then something in her brain clicks and she realises that there's someone in the cupboard and that someone had been yelling her name for the past few minutes. she then leans on the door.
but B came out in the end, and we all lived.

geog. we were all too scared of mr wolfe to prank him, although we DID think of putting staple bullets on the teacher's table since he always sits there.
we didn't dare.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - -ULTRA-PHAIL
so the school day ended, but we did some more pranking during CCA where we stuffed garlic and chilli powder and wasabi and pepper into seperate oreos and offered the innocent little cookies up to our unsuspecting seniors.
they ate. and then after that they drank the milo that we spiked with pepper.
