Entry 2-4

August 2 - Entry # 2

Today I got up and went to the track for pre-test. We didnt get the email that it had been canceled. So, we hung out until time to be at Master Evins. I did okay, but I know I need to work on a couple things. Went home and relaxed a bit, then went to visit my great grandparents and ran my mile while I was there. Went back to my grandpa's and relaxed some more before going to bed.

 

August 3 - Entry # 3

Woke up sick today.. I think I got it from my twin sister. I powered through and did some requirements. Got a new record on my mile. Just tried to rest the remainder of the day. Hoping rest and medicine will help fight off my cold.

 

August 4 - Entry # 4

Still feel bad today. Went to my great grandparents again and did my requirements. Did even better on my mile today than I did yesterday. After finishing my requirements, we went back to my grandpa's to rest some more. We're spending a few nights with him before school starts so we will be here until Thursday. Only a week and a half until my first day of middle school.. I'm pretty nervous. I got accepted into a STEAM Academy for AIG, so all my friends will be at different schools and I won't know anyone (except my sister).
