This past week has been amazing. So much has happened since Sunday. On Sunday Sean picked Leah and I up and we just ran around Rhode Island. First to Savers then Toys R Us then a fruit stand then Hope Valley school playground. It was really nice to see Amanda again and get to hang out with Leah. Monday was pretty cool, too. It was the last day of most of my classes. Kariann didn't think the apples were enough. I guess it turned more into an apology than a prank. I didn't have an exam seventh period so Alison drove me home. Later Sean and Cory picked me up and we did a few errands around Rhodes Island. Sean had the idea that we pick up Hailey and visit the old WW2 bunker on watch hill. It was pretty rad. The walk to the bunker was kinda bad, I mean, I love the beach, I love hiking... But they don't mix. Especially when you have to walk along the water to avoid the nesting grounds. But, I shouldn't complain. The bunk was so cool. It was the first time I had ever explored it and the graffiti art was amazing. There were so many great things like a painting of bulls near the entrance to the room before hell and the inscription on the wall before hell was real cool. Now, the cool thing about hell is before Sean told me about it I thought, "Maybe I should bring my jacket in case it gets cold in hell... " Hell's just a room in the bunker, it was kinda a let down but that's how it goes. I really really really wanted to explore the overgrown part but I couldn't, too overgrown, ha-ha. Instead Sean and I tried to walk along the wall and find some place that wasn't overgrown, bad idea. I lead Sean through this really overgrown path and down a hill into the overgrown area behind the fort. To get down the hill we had to get into the fetal position and slide down this tunnel of dirt or vines. Sean went first and when he stood up he screamed -- I led him into a huge briar patch... We escaped and headed back towards the car only this time we took the route behind the dunes. It was a pretty fun day. It was nice to hang out with Hailey, we've talked online but I still feel like I don't even know her.
The next few days were just as fun. Two of the hardest exams in my life, science -- real long and I didn't know any of the answers -- and English -- the essay I wrote on Mercutio was fun to write so it wasn't too bad. Cory picked me up (I think) and he, Alison, Kaila, and I drove to Westerly and had some fun. We went to candy galore and bought some candy, we bummed around the park and Cory had some fun with the kids, ha-ha. Man, that was such a fun time. Later, we went to Alison's house and Erika, Mike, and Sarah showed up. We went swimming and had such an awesome night. One of the best days I've had in a while guys, thank you!! The next day Alison drove Kaila, Mike, and I home, but we didn't do anything. I just sat around and put up with my brother.
Next, was graduation. That was so much fun. Cory picked me up and we head over early. On the way we saw a man in a van -- a crazy van, ha-ha. Right when we were pulling into the parking lot Cory popped a tire, aw; we were real lucky it was in the parking lot. Sooo, we snuck in and found some rad seats and figured out an excuse to be in there. Cory was the photographer, Xavier, and I was his assistant, Philberto, ha-ha. Man, it was pretty fun. The place started to fill up and then we said hi to the band and chorus kids and apologised to Katherine. Danielle sat behind us and later Kaila found us. The ceremony was long, but shorter than last year, I think. It was pretty fun. The speeches were awesome, chorus was awesome, the band was awesome, and it was awesome. Watching everyone graduate was real amazing, I mean, some are gonna leave in just a few months... After everyone had their diplomas we jumped the bleachers and ran around saying congratulations and taking pictures. Ah, it was an awesome night.
Today was the last day of school. I passed Fee's class but I might have failed Algebra. I really need to quit this and start acting my age, man. I was kinda bummed out about missing the beach part, everyone was theeere and I'm gonna miss the concert too. Oh well, just one day.
Okay, now here's the end, kids. I think I'm gonna stay away from my live journal this summer. I mean, last summer I change a lot, this summer I might change a lot too. I just wanna see what'll happen. I've had a blog since seventh grade; I don't remember what it's like to not have someplace to write every inane thought in. This is going to be fun. Have a great summer, you guys! I love you!
