Field trip day -

Today was a very fun day. I woke up finally actually feeling awake. When I got to school, again like always, me and my friend worked on the 4 boys, 1 car show. Then, I realized we were going to Fryes Roller Rink because it was part of our D.A.R.E. graduation. When we lined up to go to the bus we were each given red D.A.R.E. shirts to wear, and I was able to sit with my two friends, Matthew and Jackson. When we got to Fryes Roller Rink, I was so excited to skate around. I forgot how to skate, so I had to try and see if what I was doing was correct, and it was. So, once I got to skating, I taught my friends how to skate too. Me and my two friends found a way to get more candy from the little red machines you see at the store. That worked to turn out very well because we got a lot of M&M's. We skated for about 3 hours then we left and when we got back to school, we had lunch, then a fire drill, and then encore. For encore, we had free time to color and watch Sing. After encore, I went to AIG and took a math Olympiad test in which I got 4 out 5 questions right. I still don't exactly know how I got the one question wrong though. After I got back from AIG, it was time to go home. When I got home, I ate a big bowl of vegetable soup since I knew I was going to be gone for a while tonight. I then got all my stuff for taekwondo, swim, and basketball together and headed out the door. In taekwondo, I assisted with a very small junior class today, then lead warmups for the senior class and got to mentor a testing candidate on their green belt curriculum. We had just enough time to get to swim before class started. I always enjoy being able to swim around especially now that the pools are closed for the winter. Afterwards, my mom got me and her a fudge ice cream bar to eat on the way to basketball. After I got home from basketball, I took a shower, wrote this journal, completed my homework and soon I'll be getting settled down for bed. Tomorrow is a half day... LETS GOOOOOO!
