Summer

My dear readers (if there are any of you out there), I may have failed to mention in one of my previous posts that I am on summer vacation. But as of my report card that came in the mail yesterday, my days of fun in the sun are limited. My final exam grades were average, but my dear mother and step father do not see it the same way I do. So, after five days in the Catskills with my good friend Erin, I will be grounded for who knows how long. Which means no hanging out with friends, and possibly no computer or iPod for blog updates on the wonderful summer I should be having. How did I come across the absolutely wonderful news of my grounding? After a half hour at my local elementary school to take some shots at the soccer goal, my mom called me home for dinner, only to rant about my less than average grades (which let me tell you now readers, I thought were pretty good considering my studying wasn't very time consuming). In an attempt to save myself from the boredom that has started to come across me, I hauled boxes up from the basement to start re-cluttering up my room, and cleaning out a few things that I deemed unnecessary. What I was not aware of however, was that my punishment began now, before the Catskills. So I was not able to go out tonight with Erin in a last attempt to save my summer. Let's hope these five days up in the mountains are worth it. It may just be the highlight of my "What I Did Over My Summer Vacation" paper. If you do not hear from me for the majority of the summer readers, I have most likely been grounded from all technology. So good-bye, adiós, au revoir, and addio dear readers. I'll hopefully see you over the course of the summer, and if not, sophomore year.
