Yesterday was the day that I, Joey, promoted from 8th grade and the middle school I spent a very...umm, exciting? varying? educational?...experience for three years. I also said goodbye to a lot of friends. That was hard. Luckily, I didn't cry outrageously...
Before that, on Wednesday, it was ;normal school, then after school I invited Adam over...then I fell asleep, then I woke up when he arrived, then he further investigated the items in my room (a.k.a LEGO boxes again) then we revived my single-acting pneumatic engine with a bicycle pump and played with that for a while. Then he left. Oh well. We never did get to make that VEX forklift. And now he's going to Taiwan. I wish him the best.
Back to Thursday: After the promotion ceremony, we (my family and I, plus two of my friends) went to Pat and Oscars where I ate salad, four bread sticks and seven chicken "wings" and a slice of pizza. (I was hungry. Be quiet.)
Then an hour later I went to a pool party, where I unceremoniously (I just wanted to stick that word in here somewhere and I guess it fits here best) failed at swimming, in-pool volleyball, water balloon tosses, hula-hooping, and having pictures taken of me. Oh well. It was fun anyways. Plus, my friend Brittany was kind enough to get promotion presents for us; I got a polar bear type thing.
Some highlights of the party included pouring cups of cold pool water onto the people in the spa, filling up water balloons in the pool (from these nifty heater pump outlet things; I'm not exactly sure what happened) then squirting people with them, rolling hula-hoops across the surface of the water, and, umm, watching mini-marshmallow as, a grape, a chocolate-chip, and a carrot dance to some music:
[Video will be added when I find my camera. Ugh.]
Posts about Friday will come in the afternoon.
Have fun with the rest of your day!
