It's around that time of the year where everyone starts playing pranks on each other, big or small. Some get their co-workers, some get their friends, some get their family members, and some are even bold enough to get random strangers. Some pranks are lowkey while some are so over the top it takes more than a second's thought to plan. Some people even get annoying with it, kind of like the April Fools episode of Spongebob Squarepants. There is definitely a list of cliché, go-to April Fools Day jokes that everyone knows, like the "Your shoe's untied" or the toothpaste in an Oreo. Perhaps this year, though, you could steal from this list of Jim's pranks on Dwight.

1. Imitate a Co-Worker or Friend 

2. Put Small Items in Jell-O

3. Have someone pretend to be you

4. Send a fax or e-mail to them from their future self

5. Move all of their stuff into another room

6. Replace their desk with wrapped cardboard

7. Stage a crime scene

8. Convince someone you have telekinetic powers

Now, I realize that you can't fully be there for other people unless you're there for yourself, too. You can't show up for others until you're willing to show up for yourself.

Here are five things everyone should learn in order to be a better friend to themselves. These steps are hard, but they're so worth it.

Thanksgiving Break is most likely everyone’s favorite break during the fall semester. You get to go home and reminisce with all your high school friends. That diet you’ve been on for the past month goes out the window, and you get to eat until you put yourself into a food coma.
