In science class we  were given the assignment to create a tower out of spaghetti, marshmallows, and tape. We had $4875 to build it. Spaghetti cost $100 per stick. Marshmallows cost $50. Tape cost $25 per inch. In my group I was the architect. I basically drew up a diagram and we built off of that. It was a lot of fun but very stressful to build. In the end we were 5cm short of the height requirement, but our tower held up very well and for that I am happy.
