Potted Plant Distribution by Angel Mois, Xena

Angel Mois' View:
When Xena and I discussed this task, we decided to collaborate on it since we were doing it at the same time. So we decided to have our plants next to each other to see how people react to them and which one they would take in to care and love. So we have Xena's plants, which is a beautiful pot of pretty flowers that is decorated with fine tissue paper and includes a fine card.
Mine is... This thing. This TINY thing with an index card folded up so you can see the sweet, poetic plea for help. It was a small pot that I found and then I dug out a small plant from my backyard and watered it.
Originally, we were going to leave it in the library on the desk, but we found an even better location- on the roof of the Administration Building.
***Xena's Note:
So attached to each plant was an actual note/letter.
On my plant, we took pictures of the note so we wouldn't forget what was said.... but....
Charming.....
Frustration does not translate well.
You can't see what was written very well.
The gist of it was simply asking a stranger to take the plant home, take care of it, bring it back on Wednesday by 10:15 AM, and you'll get free booze.
On Angel's Plant the note was...
So as Angel said. We originally wanted to leave these plants in the campus library. But as we were heading over there. We saw this....
We've never actually been there before, so we weren't sure how to physically leave the plants. Especially, since it was located on the roof of admin.
This was as close as we got to actually knowing how to get to the roof
Charming...
Frustrations does not translate well...
So we had an adventure:
Shows: Failure to find a direct route, placing the potted plants on the roof
Shows: Failure to find a direct exit A.K.A our "great escape"
In the end, as we finally came back down. We checked out the roof with the plants looming over the edge.
And it basically looked like a crappy memorial. Like "o sorry deceased one, I only had 3 bucks and could simply muster up a decor from Ralph's and a few weeds from my backyard to place on the roof of Administration"
All in all, it was pretty fun. Word did get around that there were some plants randomly placed on the roof. Angel and I came back Wednesday at 10:15 AM....
No we didn't see our beloved plants.
Yes.. we were attacked by bees.
Yes... the bees took our honey and ate our pancakes.

The way to embed on SFØ is elegant and different.
You write youtube:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvqdgJ412gs and put it in brackets: [ ]
