ABOUT THE FILM
Project X follows three seemingly anonymous high school seniors as they attempt to finally make a name for themselves. Their idea is innocent enough: let’s throw a party that no one will forget…but nothing could prepare them for this party. Word spreads quickly as dreams are ruined, records are blemished and legends are born. Project X is a warning to parents and police everywhere. Rated R

I tired to get the cool kids to like me by spiking the Kool Aid at our school dance which in turn turned the school dance into a puke fest.. Whoops!!!

I tried to get cool kids to like me by begging my parents to buy me Air Jordan pump up sneakers…

I tried to be cool by combing my hair in this real cool style. When I came out of the bathroom they were really laughing. I thought they were laughing because the style was funny but they were actually laughing my dress was stuck in my pantyhose!!!! I almost cried!

I was pretty lame in high school. I would bump into the cute popular guys in the hallways on purpose and drop my books so they would help me pick them up. I would say I’m sorry for being so clumsy and that would give me a moment to chat with them and daydream about us getting married and having cute popular babies. My excuse for that bahavior was that I was 14.

I attempted to dye my hair blonde. It turned out orange, but it ended up looking kind of awesome in the end.

I once tried to impress the cool kids at my school by offering to drive to a party (I was 16 and had just gotten my driver license ). So I borrowed my dads brand new van ( actually I had to beg and do a large amount of chores and make promises like, ” you can trust me”and ” I will only go over to my friends and back” etc.) and took off with about 15 of the ” cool kids to a high school party. it turned out to be way out in the country on a dirt road. It had just rained a lot that day and there was water over the road, so trying to be “cool” I floored it through about 50 yards of water. About 1/2 way through it the water reached about two and a half feet deep and the new van stalled right in the middle of it. I had to have all the kids get out and push ( in knee high water ) to get the van out of the water. After pushing it out by pure luck it started up and I was then not very popular so I had to drive everybody back home to clean up and by that time, nobody wanted to go out. Needless to say, this “nerd” ended up a foolish failure. 🙁

I had a buddy throw a party on his farm out past 32 mile…because it was fall all the crop was gone so everyone parked in the fields. Apparently he does this every year. so i get the with a few of my friends only to realize there are about 300 people here, and oh yeah did i forget to tell u i was the only black guy there. So i start walking back there i smell the grill i hear music and just tons of people. They had a band playing on an upstairs balcony, a bond fire so big you can feel the heat from 100 yards away, and oh yeah 2 full size pigs the cooked in the ground. probably the best party i have ever been to. I have always been open to partying with anybody and any where, but i can say the best parties happen out past the sticks.

the worst party i ever went to was back when i was in highschool. I got to the party fashionable late and no one was there, and the folks throwing the party werent even finished setting up! i ended up helping with set up, my bestfriend end up helping serve drinks becuz there was no one to do it. after a while people slowing but surely start to show up but no one danced or anything. they just stood around and said to themselves. me and my bestfriend were the only ones trying to have a good time and liven the party up. it was pretty bad

The city of my college had passed an ordinance that allowed cops to ticket houses if there were more than 5 people outside a house. So, we had this party where a hundred or so people showed up and we were all squeezed inside the house. This tight space didn’t allow for personal spaces or corners to hide away in and so the social interaction was completely different and amazing.

I finally got the nerve to ask this girl I liked out and while she didn’t say yes to a one-on-one date, she did invite me to a party…how exciting! Needless to say, she told me that the party was a costume party and that she was going as a hamburger and that I should go as a hot dog since they go well together. Look at me, happy as can be, that things may get heated between us (like the pun?). Excited as can be, I went out and got a hot dog costume and dressed up for the party…only to find out that it was not a costume party at all. And even worse, her and friends gave me the nickname Weiner. Awful indeed!

The worse party I ever went to was when I went to visit a high school friend of mine who was going to school on the west side of the state. I remember getting to the house where the party was at and found out that three of my ex girlfriends were all there. On top of that, two of them completely disliked me and the person I brought with me to the party was a girl I was just starting to date. As soon as I walked in the door at my friends house, my ex and the ex before that all were standing near the side door I entered and started bitching me out. It was awful. To make it a little worse, my ex told the girl I brought with me about private stuff no one else knew about.

When i was 19 and had a lil get together at my new house i was drinking. Stupid me went to the bathroo and opps my pager went down the toilet. Not cool. As well as at another party a year later we were al doing shots. Went to bathroom and somehow i broke that tolilet into 3 peices. Parties i will never forget nor will my friends let me forget.

I was trying to be cool and accepted in my school in “old school” 1973. I got my first report card and got all A’s and B’s. I wanted certain cliques to like me, so I stopped studying and got B’s and 1 C. I told the principal off that I was not going to sell participate in the candy sale.
The girls still did not accept me. So, I started to be myself again and made friends with the not so cool kids.
2012 I feel like Bill Gates, it is okay to be a nerd. I read, go to church, wear little make up, push my kids for good grades and I watch political news. I still pray everyday.
I am still not cool, but okay with it.

Playing Truth or Dare at a college party is okay as long as you’ve, well…. Let’s put it it this way. I didn’t exactly plan on having my first kiss with a dude who was wearing a beer cup bra while I was dressed in a bird costume. I’m a guy.

I didn’t go to many parties in High School. One of the few I did attend began with letting some friends raid my Mom’s booze, which we put in a Faygo bottle so we could sneak it into the party. I didn’t actually drink any of it, or any other alcohol–I still don’t to this day. However, everyone thought I was drunk because I was so bored that I began skiing down the basement stairs with a box. Needless to say I missed the fact that you’re supposed to go to parties to meet girls!

Worst party ever was the one I saw my girlfriend, who I had just made out with, kissing this other guy outside.

Worst party ever was my own 13th birthday party. We played 2 songs all night and had a bunch of adults standing around watching us. Not fun at all! Needless to say, I was totally embarrassed and knew it would be the talk of the town when I went back to school on Monday.

I went to a new boyfriend’s party with some friends. As soon as I got there, a friend tipped me off that my old boyfriend was there. I saw him and we barely said hello. Next another old boyfriend was also there. The second guy was with his new girlfriend. He stared at me the entire party. I stayed with my new boyfriend the entire evening. It was very awkward. I did not know that the other two guys would be there. I was on good behavior all night.

My friends birthday this summer was amazing. BBQ and bonfire.. Then came the game flip cup. Shortly after everyone was tipsy… People started getting thrown into the pool.. Then bam it was just amazing 2am, 30 grown people drunk as skunks, jumping diving swimming, just having a blast. Once my group sobered up.. We left (designated driver of course) got into a car a drove home 80s style. Sunroof open everyone took their turn standing up through that sunroof, screaming and yelling. It was like that scene from I know what you did last summer.. But we didn’t hit anyone…

I bought a boat this summer and took 12 people out on lake st clair this summer. We were out from 10am until 1am the next day. We partied all over the lake going to different areas and finally on the way home started to run out of gas at 1 am. It was a great time to learn that the gauge for fuel was not 100% accurate. Even after running out of gas it was probably the best day of the year for me, we’ve never had so much fun.
