Deathly Tired and Bored to Death

Last Saturday deserves a blog. But blogging about it seemed like such a huge task. So much to write about. But here goes.

5:00 AM Wake up, head out to school, grab my stuffs and we head out after inspection n stuff.

Bus ride was interesting. 2 vs 2 pokemon battles to practice for the tournament on tuesday. I also surprised everyone with my HUUUUGGGEEEE.....sandwhich. Me and Chris only ate like half and we were full.

Get to Santa Cruz, team shimmey unload, get dressed, head out, stuffs. Someone in front of my was being constantly off step. Had a pretty decent performance. I looked for Cyril the whole time. Didn't see him. Get back to camp. Team shimmey has to unload stuff AGAIN but we were relieved by team kriselda. Ate foods, searched ice box for a can that wasn't half empty. Mr. Smuh dismissed us.

Heres where it starts getting fun. Me Chris and Sam head to beach taking the side entrance near the bridge. We meet up with kevin and joey and we set up camp. Kevin, Joey and I head across the shallow water to get to go inside a cave and find an awesome beach on other side. Head back and go along wall to check out a small cave in the wall. We didn't want to go in. Decide to swim across the deeper end to try to get to the other side. Me and Kev swim to the other side, then joey tries throwing his stuff across the river but everything spills halfway across. I swim out and start throwing things back and Kev and Sam. Joey throws his slippers as well so I swim out to get them but I don't have the energy to throw them. I try treading back but I find I have almost no stamina left. And I'm stuck in the middle of the river and the tide is pulling me farther from the others and toward the ocean.

This is the part where I think, "I might drown."

Knowing I'm at my limits of energy, I release joey's slippers as they were harder to tread with. I let my self sink so i can rest my arms twice, searching for the bottom, but all i got was sea weed, then struggled back up to gasp for air. All the while trying harder and harder to tread toward the the other side of the river. I see that I'm getting closer and closer every so slowly, and I'm scared to death but still I had hope. I didn't even have enough breath to yell for help. Finally I went under again and my foot hit a rock. I pushed up and managed to grasp onto the rocky shore. Once I grabbed on I felt such a huge sense of relief and finally i realized just how tired i was. I stayed there hunched over on that rock for about 2 minutes or so just catching my breath.

Kevin swam back across and then we tried to back the other way around through the shallow side. Kev's leg cramped up, and my legs were still wobbly and exhausted so neither of us could move for a while. Finally, we managed to make our way back to the spot were we could cross. Unluckily, Kev cramped up half way, and while i tried to help him across, my legs cramped up and both of us fell into the water while the tide started pulling us in. We had to crawl until we were safe from the tide, and i notice theres a family watching us like 10 feet away. Thanks family for getting your entertainment from watchin two guys who were about to get sucked into the ocean who couldn't do anything because they were paralyzed from cramps. Thanks also to Joey and Chris who came out of no where and dragged us farther up the beach.

So, with dead legs, I decided to just stay atour current camp instead of finding everyone else and I began to dig a hole. Marizelle and her bf were also there hanging out with chris. So I kept digging that hole for about an hour and a half. Eventually, I managed to leave the spot and seek out help and brought derrick over and we continued digging at twice the speed. derrick's brother dj eventually found us and helped us out as well. by the time we left for awards we had HUGE hole. Angelica has a movie of it on her camera.

Awards. Meh. That wasn't even our best show so I wasn't really psyched for it. Dig some bro talk too.

Bus ride home? Awesome. Started with Mario Kart. I completely suck at it now. Eventually we stopped. Then, somehow we started a conversation with the people around us. Josh, Justin, Ceasar, Kriselda, Chris, other Justin? But yeah. Talked about hella random stuff. It went from mind games like bang, and snaps, to scary movies, then ghost stories. By the end I think Josh and Justin had knocked out. By then end when we got up I found out I sat on the other half of my sandwhich. Bah. Bus duty.

Afterwards. Found a ride to go to Denny's to celebrate. Bad move.

Everyone from band took up the whole front section of Dennys. Thing is. There was only one waiter. At about 2 hours later of being bored to death, the bro's table didn't even get to order yet. and people had been leaving because of the super slow service. so me and joey get a ride with kev at around 10:30-11:00?, and we hadn't even ordered food.

So kev's dad said we were going to mc donalds to get some food, which was ok with me cuz i was starving. We ended up in the mc donalds in Walmart....after ordering and being confused about who got what, we headed home. Kev's dad dropped me off after joey and i get in the house, talk to my aunt a bit about the whole day then i head up stairs and crash. i didn't even take a shower. Crash time was about...1:00 AM?

That was Saturday and then some.
