2 out of 12

So I’m at my second school of the new school year. The students here seem to be better than my base school students, English-wise. This school seems to be more geared towards academics compared to the other school. Hopefully this makes the transition from elementary to junior high a little easier. I also found out that some of my sixth graders from last year’s elementary school come here. The only thing is that the one student that I got into trouble because he spit on me also comes to this school. We kind of surprised each other this morning. He was probably thinking the same thing I was thinking, “What the hell are you doing here?”

This weekend was pretty awesome for some and terrible for others. Last week Friday we all decided to get together and play some kickball on the weekend. For some reason I was expecting people to brush it off and suggest drinking instead but it turned out that lots of people were excited that kickball was going down. We even got some foreigners (Australians, Canadians, Irish, and British) to play. They had no idea what the hell kickball was which made it that much more fun. I’m not really used to teaching my peers how to play kickball. Anyway we head out on Saturday morning to get our kickball on! We decided to go to this river by the park so we can have a nice outing outdoors. One of our friends even called the City Hall to make sure that the dirt field was available for play. We were all ready to play…

But when we got there we found out that everyone else felt the same about the weather that it was a perfect day to be outside. The dirt field was horded by the stupid little league soccer kids and the grassy areas were packed with picnickers. We had a representative to go over to the soccer coach and work out some field-usage treaty but the dude wouldn’t have it. They said they were there until 6 and that we could use it after. Bastard knew that the sun was going to go down around 7. Anyway we decided to play on this grassy area and it was fun until…

One friend Kevin was making his run around first when he tripped on the first baseman’s foot and had a small tumble. He got up and ran all the way to second only to find that his leg was bleeding. We all went to inspect the wound and we totally got to see his muscle and maybe even some cartilage. The cut was real deep! He ended up going to the hospital to get some stitches. Then we all teased the first baseman that she knifed Kevin on his way to second. Sorry Kevin… hope the knee gets better.

So anyway after that incident the kickball spirit kind of died. But we did end up playing some ultimate Frisbee and even some catch football. But we were there to play kickball. And so we did. We ended up playing after everyone started leaving which was around 6. We played until it got pretty dark. We even had one of our friends move his car so we could use his headlights to light our kickball field. What a game, kickball.

Sunday was an uneventful day. Krystal and Val had tickets to go to a flower arrangement show so me and Kevin kicked it at home and played video games all day. He has an X-Box and got some new games sent to him from home. We did some dog fighting, Halo, and X-Men Legends. A perfect Sunday for a couple of geeks…

So now I’m here at my school, which doesn’t have Internet. So this is a Word document that is going to be pasted onto the web at home. So hopefully the rest of my day and week go well. Ok getting funny looks from the due across of me better get going.
