Eight Girls Pull Best Yearbook Prank Ever



By Piper Weiss, Shine Staff | Parenting – 3 hours ago

They may have different friends and different interests but nothing brings high school students together like alphabetical order.

For the eight students at a California high school with the same last name-Nguyen- it was obvious their wallet-size snapshots would be sharing the same yearbook page.

So instead of exerting their individuality with the standard Grateful Dead quote and a prom-worthy up-do, they decided to join forces for the ultimate prank. Alexandra, Angela, Angelica, Elizabeth, Emily, Isabella, Madeline and Vi Nguyen all wore the same black off-shoulder dresses and the same hairstyles. Then they went for the win.

Eschewing the optional yearbook one-liner under each of their photos, they divided up two sentences that made fellow students and administrators think twice before making any stereotypical assumptions. Altogether, the words under the Nguyen girls' eight pictures read: "We know what you're thinking and no we're not related."

1. The story says the students divided up two sentences but the article provides just one sentence.

2. It may be different now, but when I was in high school, the senior girls all had to wear the same "drape," which was supplied by the photographer. Hence, the fact that they dressed identically may not have been their choice.
