Lots of Traveling (Little Long)

*Sigh* You are probably wondering "Serena, why are you (somewhat) sighing?" Well, today I have been on FOUR buses, and then ran about three miles. Yes, I know, four buses isn't a lot. But it is a lot when the second and third bus rides is 33 minutes each.
The whole fifth grade had a field trip to JA BizTown. (JA stands for Jr. Achievement.) We stayed there for six hours. At JA BizTown, everyone has a job. I was the CEO of the Business Journal, a newspaper for JA BizTown, and also editor. I had to make the whole news paper, like put all the stories, ads, and pictures in the actual paper. I get the newspaper tomorrow so I might take a picture of all eight pages then post the pictures. But the breaks were a little small and I didn't have a lot of time to eat my lunch, and I got mixed up on my breaks. I sat at a desk all the time (unless it was my break) while my CFO and people from other businesses gave me checks and other things to sign. After the whole thing, all I wanted to do when I got home was finish my homework, put it away, then take a nap.
But right after, I had to change so we could run. The good news was I ran 18 laps, or 3 miles. I am tired from it but still feel like I had buckets of energy. I am typing/writing in the car, where we are either going someplace else, or finally home. I am pretty sure I am going someplace else though. My little sister came with us and she had a blast. She was laughing and most of the time screaming, but she was running/walking with my dad.
My dad says that we have to go home first, then got to Jae and Jordan's house because my parents have to go to a meeting. *Sigh again* I like having to go to Jae's/Jordan's house, but I just want to relax. My mom says that we are going to be home late, so I can't really do my homework. I have decided to use a homework slip so I can skip this night's homework. I am SUPER hungry and I don't have time for a snack!
P.S. when I said four buses, the first was the bus I ride to school in the morning (about 10-15 minute ride,) the second bus is from my school to JA BizTown (about 30-33 minute ride,) the third bus is from JA BizTown to my school (about 30-35 minute ride,) the fourth bus is the bus I ride from school to my house. And I just thought of something, if the teachers and adults want us safe, then why don't they have seat belts on the school buses?

Did you know?: Your brain weighs about three pounds?
