So today is the day before my vacation.  Today I went to my grandma's house and helped her do some things.  I was so excited when my dad came and picked me up.  We went to go get our haircuts and then went home.  Then we all started to check our bags to see if we had everything we needed for the flight and California.  Then I went ahead and printed the Black Belt Test.  Now I am about to go take a shower and go to bed because we have to wake up very early.

Just a Normal Thursday

Today was the same.  Except, at before school there was a fight.  The fight started by someone stepping on someone elses shoes.  Then the rest of the day was just a normal day.  At gym we practiced flag football outside on the football field.  Also, My fourth block math teacher is getting married on Saturday.  So we have this sort of mean, sort of nice substitute.  I also went to Huntersville for sparring class.  Me and my dad also went to go get a UNC sweatshirt for college day at my school.  Other than that, today was a pretty normal day if I do say so myself.
