My First Prank at WSU

I thought it would be funny to pull a prank on Lauren, so I guess this would be my first prank I pulled off at WSU.  I’ve been hearing alleged rumors about guys coming into the girls shower areas while they were taking a shower.  Well, I told Megan that I would help her post fliers for Homecoming (2002 USC) on every floor.  We started on Perham 6th and ended on Streit 1st.   

While we were on Perham 6th, I thought it would be cool to stop by and say hey to Amber and Lauren.  We knocked on the door and Amber was half asleep lying on her bed.  “Hey Amber where’s Lauren?”  “In the shower…meh.”  Ok, we’ll we just wanted to stop by and say hey.  See ya.  I told Megan we have to make a pit stop.  She didn’t want anything to do with what I was going to do to Lauren.  Luckily, she was the only one in the shower and it was next to the wall, the closest one to the door.  I went in there quietly and hid myself from any view, that included being able to see feet if you looked down next to you.  Her shower caddie was right next to the stall I was in.  I grabbed it and slid it towards me slowly.  You could definitely tell that she made a gasping noise and stood there like a statue until she figured out what to do next.  She grabbed the caddy and slid it away from the stall I was in.  A few minutes went by and I did it again and she reacted about the same except she made a different noise.  That’s when I decided to leave and continue helping Megan.  We left as fast as we could as I snickered.  Lauren went back to her room and asked Amber if that was her in the shower.  Amber said no and continued napping.   

At this point Lauren was freaked out and had no idea who that was messing with her in the shower.  Before she left to go hang out with Johannes, Amber mentioned to her that Megan and I stopped by to say hi.  She knew instantly that it was me.  I finished posting fliers with Megan and walked back to Perham…as Lauren was on her way out.  She looked at me through the window with the “I know what you did” look.  I laughed at her and she told me that she was glad it was me because she thought it was a guy.  The first of many more pranks to come.

Driving to College



I remember the day we left home for the first trip to WSU.  It was Friday August 23, 2002 and we left in the late afternoon.  My parents requested that day off to take me to eastern Washington.  We had to take a detour and stop by my Aunt Angela’s house in Renton because I lived with her for a month out of the summer while I worked at the Kent-Meridian Shari’s. 

I left a few things there and I had to pick them up.  I just learned that Angela was moving out of the house into one down the road.  This was news to me.  I had no idea her and Robin were having issues.  With my dad being my dad, he offered to help take a few truck loads down the road, which was nice of him but that put us back a few hours.  We then learned that the printer that came with my computer just came in the mail at Grandma Karen’s house so we offered to back track to Puyallup to meet her there.   

Everything was finally taken care of and now we were on our way to Pullman.  I forgot how long of a drive it was to Pullman after sitting in the back seat with all of my junk for six hours.  We finally pulled up around 10 p.m. and I called Megan to meet us outside.  I had no idea what I was supposed to do.  It was passed the “move-in” hours but somehow we managed to find someone on staff that gave me my keys and we started moving stuff into my dorm room….lucky.   

My dad has this fascination with having the first fart, so he sat down on my bed and let one rip.  Thanks dad.   We brought in a bunch of stuff and then decided to go to bed.  The next day, we got some food and continued moving my stuff in.  We set up my computer and printer, hung up my clothes and put the stuff away in the closet.  It was weird I was finally at school and I didn’t want my parents to leave me.
