I'm writing this over a week after it happened so I'm just gonna write what I can remember. We did graduation practice the day after the awards ceremony, so that's what we did today. Oh, it's starting to come back to me now. I had to get there at 7:00, so pretty early. They had a senior breakfast with all sorts of stuff and some Chick-fil-A breakfast sandwiches which really weren't that good. The blue Hawaiian Punch was really good. They also had graduation pictures that day and I don't think mine turned out that great. The guy messed my hair up before the picture because he said it wasn't under my cap. But whatever.

Then after that they still had us go to chapel. I thought we were supposed to be done with all of that but I guess not. So I got to see Jesse and Matthew and them again. Then was graduation practice. It was pretty boring. They made us all practice walking in like, three times. I walked in with Matthew Theiss and sat between Aaron Zoellner and Carter Williams. They would not be my first choices. So yeah, practice was pretty boring. At the end they gave us our Beta Cords that we got for being in Beta Club. And that's about it. After that I went to Cape because I didn't really wanna go home yet.

I realized that today was the release day for Tears of the Kingdom, the new Zelda game. I didn't really know if I wanted to get it because I don't play video games that much anymore, but I looked up some reviews and saw it was supposed to be good. Also I really liked Breath of the Wild. So I went to Walmart and bought it. It ended up being $75 after tax. Crazy. But I also stole a Lego Minifigure because I saw they had Disney ones. I know I shouldn't steal, but $5 for 10 cents of plastic is ridiculous. Also tax on the game was $5 so it kinda worked out. I got the mean skeleton from Coco and it actually looks really cool.

I think I got a pretzel from Sam's on the way home. Probably also a blue Icee. So good.

On the way home I saw something near the bridge but drove past it. I thought it looked like a small furry thing. I was thinking it was a hedgehog or something so once I got home I got on my bike and rode back to look at it. When I got there I realized it was just a cool looking turtle. I don't know where I saw the fur. But I picked it up and moved it down near the creek. That's two animals saved in two days. Maybe I should go into something environmental. It is fun.

I put in the Zelda game but it had to update so I took a nap and played it some when I woke up. I thought it was pretty fun. Lots of creativity.

So that was the day. I think it actually turned out pretty good. 7/10. No more going to school until graduation next Sunday.
