Infinite Water Supply
There are a lot of reasons that you'll want to have a Bucket of Water on your hands (fire, building, farming, irritating friends, making a moat, etc.), but it can get really irritating having to run down to the ocean every tie you want some. Follow this quick tutorial, and you can have a small, endlessly full pool of water wherever you want it!
You'll need an Iron Bucket and the ability to dig into the floor a little.
1. Dig a 2 by Hole in the ground that is 1 square deep
2. Fill your bucket/s with water from the ocean or a lake. You only need 2 deposits, so taking 2 buckets is recommended...

3 Easter Eggs
Submit an Easter Egg.
Portal Reference
If you bake a cake for the first time in Minecraft, you will receive an achievement titled 'The Lie', a reference to Valve's 'Portal' series in which a recurring theme is a cake to be rewarded to you at the end of the game, and the writing on the walls in some secret alcoves saying 'The cake is a lie.' many times.
HIM Easter Egg
If you are on a foggy day, look closely. If you are lucky, you may see a person with default skin but with white eyes, dubbed by Notch, 'Herobrine,' or simply HIM. You may even (most rare thing you can think of) find him in the Pocket Edition of Minecraft (the only mob).
Samus' Helmet from Metroid
If you put a pumpkin in the helmet section of your armor your HUD will turn into the HUD of the galactic bounty hunter Samus Aran from Metroid. (No you won't get any missiles)

How to Get 'The End' Achievement
First make sure you have some Eyes of Ender. Then find a stronghold and find the teleporter. Put the eyes in and the portal will be activated. Ma ke sure you have a Diamond sword, bow with at least 100+ arrows. When you teleport there you will see tall Obsidian towers. Go on top of them and destroy all of the pearl looking things. These heal the dragon and getting rid of these is half the battle. Then unload on the dragon with your bow and arrow. When you defeat him he will fly up and explode. A teleporter will drop and you can go through it to watch the Credits and go back to your world.
How to Get 'The End' Achievement
Find a dungeon and be sure to have some Eyes of Ender with you, form the portal, go in with your best sword, and then defeat the Ender Dragon Boss. You'll get an Achievement called The End.
