Final Survival?

So, as I was saying in my previous post, about my Futures finals. It was pretty interesting. Our teacher was all telling us to bring a newspaper, but we sure didn't see his test coming! Apparently we were in this desert and in groups of twelve, we had to make a freestanding shelter out of newspaper from the sun and everyone has to sit under it in order for us to pass. We got time to plan beforehand, but after that, we couldn't talk or write down what to say. We all went outside with our newspaper and started the challenge. My group did surprisingly well. We did the best, but it wasn't technically "freestanding" since we taped it to the floor. We were at loss at how to make that crazy thing stand by itself so we just taped it to the floor. Another group had to hold up parts and the last group didn't finish within the twenty minute time limit. It was pretty fun, too. We all cooperated in silence, though we couldn't help ourselves to blurt out some words. Thankfully the teacher wasn't around to fail us for that. I don't know why, but I felt the need to record that moment. A newspaper fortress seems interesting, does it not?
