Ouch.
Today I went to school like any other day. I got picked up by my carpool, Dropped off outside the bandroom, and got my tuba out. Then I tested in band (I'm tied for first chair!), went to Algebra, took a nap. Woke up, went to break, didn't eat because I was fasting for grandpa, went to P.E. Dressed for P.E., went outside, saw some kid get pantsed. Then I laughed for ten minutes or so. Then Mr. Gonzales came and we got out the wave boards. Got my wave board and helmet and went in circles around my friends. Mr. Gonzales told us to come in so I came down a little hill, started a manual and hit my friend. I fell backwards and put my arm out to catch my fall. I should've rolled. I hit the ground and my arm started hurting really bad. I got up and Sean asked me if I was okay. I said yah because i'm uber macho. I picked up my board and put it away and then I felt dizzy. I told Sean and he got Mr. Gonzales and Mr. G said to go to the nurse so I held my arm and talked with Sean on the way down. We got there and the nurse was yelling at some kid and then she told some other kid to get out of his P.E. clothes and to wash his hands. So I just stood there for about five minutes with a throbbing arm. She finally looked at me and gave me ice to put on my arm. Then she started yelling at the other kid. I sat there for about fifteen minutes with ice on my wrist. Then she said to take the ice off. Sat there for about half an hour, and then she told me to put the ice back on. Then the school security gaurd came and gave me my backpack. The lady told me to change because I was in my P.E. clothes so I did. Then I tried to tie my shoe. It didn't work so I just tucked the laces in my shoe. And cause I did it with only my right hand the lady asked really rudely, "It hurts so bad you can't tie your shoe?". I stared at her for a while then I just started tieing it. Sorry this is written so wierd it's hard to type with one hand. So then the lady told me to call my mom. So I called her and my mom said she'd come pick me up. I sat down and put the ice back on my still throbbing hand. My mom came and took me to the doctor's. So I got an exam and x rays and the doctor told me I had a buckling fracture that should heal in 3 weeks. He gave me a brace and that really helped. My arm really hurts when I run, twist it, make a fist, put my fingers together, or raise my arm. I have a cross country meet tomorrow and I really want to go because its the second to last one this year(Sorry Emily!). I think I'm just gonna deal with the pain and run. FAST!

Running
I ran a 6 minute 32 second mile today. One of my friends from cross country wasn't there so I couldn't set a very good pace. After school I ran cross country with a new girl, my friend Nathan, Mrs.Koontz, and some really slow kid named Isiah. We ran four miles but lost Isiah, so we ran another two miles trying to find him. If anyone cares, I have a meet at Anacapa on Thursday. Cim, you're welcome to come because you won't answer any one of your phones.

Update!
Hi Sami! Hi Wil! Ok. I am a tuba-playing, cross country running, near straight A, black belt.
I play tuba. I'm in Anacapa's concert (expert) band. I'm tied for first chair right now and hope to be the lone first chair by the end of November. I am one of three tubas who are all pretty good.
I tried out for Anacapa's cross country team at the start of the year. I made it in, got my bright green short-shorts, and started running. I can now run a 6 minute 23 second mile and I'm getting faster every week. My neighbor is also a runner so I've been trying to run with him. I consistently get about 20th in the meets. There are about 150 runners at each meet. My places have been: 25, 21, 24, 4 (most people were gone this day), and most recently 25. I run at least two miles every Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday.
I have 4 A's and two B's in school. I have B's in Algebra 1 and U.S. History. A's in Band, P.E., Science, and Language Arts. I despise math, science, and language arts.
I have a black belt in tae kwon do and feel invincible. As long as my uncle Ben isn't around. One of my friends does tae kwon do with me and our other friends call us F.A.N.S.: Freaking Awesome Ninja Squadron.
After our house flooded, I turned homeless because I was quickly tricked into giving up my room to my mom in exchange for the playroom. Of course, I was decieved and told I couldn't have a door, T.V., or computer in my 6 x 12 room. Great deal. I then negotiated and ended up with the office. Now I have a lock on my door, access to ALL of the downstairs while everyone is sleeping, AND a sliding glass door leading to my personal spa, which Jesse has agreed to clean for me whenever I ask. Awesome.
I love my life.
