mall


Over spring break i went on a mission trip to Fort Worth. We worked with homeless people and it was truly a blessing.On our second night we went to a mall. I was bored because I'm not the shopping type. I was walking with Taylor,Freshman at Dunham, and he had an amazinly random idea. His idea was to stick our feet in the fountain that was in the middle of the mall. I thought about it and realized that this idea had potential. I realize it may not be that funny to you but at the time it was. We both sat with our jeans rolled up to our knees, in the middle of a mall in texas, with our feet dangling in the fountain. We went for around 15 min until a man with his family decided to take it into his own business to stop our dangerous actions. He called security and fortunately we were gone by the time they got there.We walked around for a little while and stumbled onto one of those stores where everything cost only a dollar. There wasn't anything that good in there buy taylor decided he would buy this statue for his mom so she would feel remembered. The thing was very ugly. It was supposed to be a sentimental statue of a native american with a wolf hood. it was only hand size and you could tell it cost a dollar. the eyes were cross-eyed and the nose was a little crooked, just looking at it made me laugh. Once we left we had the idea to try to give it away. We started walking up to random people telling them that they had just won this. Unfortunately the ugliness of this statue made people realize that they could not have possible won something that unattractive. It took us around 10 min to finally get rid of the thing. It was so much fun that we decided to get some more. We bought about 5 different ugly, one dollar statues. It took awhile but we finally gave them all away.I realize that this isn't very funny and it sounds stupid but i had a good time and i wanted to share it with you.
