  • My church has this event called Youth Conference where teenagers go to another city for a few days for a conference. One year, a brother and I went to one. There were booths with a bunch of gospel games, food and drinks, and prizes. We were all given tickets to use. My brother and I looked at each other, combined our tickets, and went to grab a few prizes and some food and drinks. The adults were trying to convince us to go play the gospel games but we ignored them. When the event ended and the true purpose was revealed, everyone in the room turned and looked at us.

    For the rest of the conference, people kept coming up to us and saying how funny they found what my brother and I had done. When they came to my town the next year, they told me about how they still laugh about it up there.



















  • The first paragraph was easy for my previous employer. At the start of the interview, my interviewer pointed out the wallpaper of his brand new grandson. During the interview he noticed that I kept looking at his monitor. When he asked why I was doing that I asked why he had it on the lowest resolution. We switched places and I changed the resolution. The wallpaper disappeared and my heart felt like it had stopped.

    Thinking quickly, I said that if the picture was on the hard drive that it would have reloaded and it obviously hadn’t been downloaded so it must have been in an email. He smiled and said that I was right and I spent the rest of the interview in his chair and I got a call that day asking if I could come in that day.
