This weekend was one of the best in a while. Well not really the weekend. It actually started Thursday when I volunteered for the blood drive. It wasn't to eventful, but in my opinion it felt good helping some people out. It was like on and off. A patient or two would come and then go, but sometimes everyone would get off the beds at once and the seating in the van would be crowded. It was a really good experience, and helped me work on my speech skills( talking to other people I didn't know ).
Then Saturday came, and we started off with conditioning, and it made me pretty sore. But then after that I went airsofting with my friends from my school who were moving on to 7th grade, where as I am moving on to 6th, so they are going to middle school, so I might not see them again till next year. We then hung around his house for a while, which was really fun. We played BO2 and sparred with these foam axes in the backyard for the longest time. Then I helped him feed the chickens, give them the water, collect the eggs, and put fresh ice in the bunnies cages so they kept cool, and then he made me like this sugar ice stuff, which I had no idea was so sweet. Then we roasted hot dogs over the pitfire and played catch with the lacrosse things and threw rotted apples from the orchard at each other.
The next day, I woke up at 6, which I was not very fond about. We dressed up in our work out clothes, and headed for the Sun Run. This was a real achievement for me. I only stopped once during the three miles we ran, where I usually stop about 4 times. At the end, I really wanted to sit down and relax, but that would've been bad. Instead, I visited the different stalls and drank the small cups of Jamba Juice. When we were ready to go, we went to Biscuits and ate food with the Asuncions(sorry if I spelled it wrong, guys!).
At home I took a nap for I don't know how long, and conveniently woke up about 30 mins. before the party. There, we had water balloon fights and shot the water filled bottles up into the air. It was the longest time before I went to bed, and in that time, I limped around and ate food and layed down on the couch.
