When I was in 3rd grade I watched some cartoon where they mentioned Einstein and how he was a genius and came up with E=mc².
It gave me an idea.
One day when school was about to end, I took a blank piece of paper and in BIG letters wrote on it " E=mc² ". I signed my name underneath, left the sheet in the middle of my desk, and when the bell rung I went home. My hope was that my teacher would find it, would think I was a genius just like Einstein, and would advance me forward a couple grades! Needless to say my plan didn't quite work out :P
