Le sigh

Nana just finished her last solo speech in her presentation class. The next and last speech is a group and Nana has no idea who or what it will be.

It has also come to Nana's attention that this semester has so cut away Nana's usual writing speed and creativity. She doesn't know why. Last semester Nana came up with multiple shorts and poems, but now she is struggling on just one. It's so damned annoying, it is. She doesn't have a constant muse, so if any of you want to volunteer, Nana would greatly appreciate.

Since last week, Nana's been wondering something so profound, so deep and inquisical that she has to share it with all of you. It is a subject that many have sought the answer to. It spans generations, ethnicity, food preference. A topic so controversial that the pope himself band the question from any deliberation.

Yes, you've guessed it. It is the question of the origins of April Fool's day.

How is it that out of every day of the year we decided that the 1st of April will be a day that we play pranks on people and get away with it (for the most part). There is a wonder at that. Was there some deliberation as to that day? Was there some kind of solar event when it started? These and many others questions are just small parts of the mystery.

The next part is how does one choose their prank? Nana totally forgot the day was even happening. And since she was at school,in a computer lab, waiting for her psych class, no one was playing any on her. But usually she choses her pranks on opportunity and accessibility. Like going to her nearest friends house and sneaking in to rearrange their stuff and put things in the freezer. The friend in question is a big occult fanatic.

So Nana asks this, what pranks have you played or had played on you that stand out in your mind?
