Tuesday this week wasn’t a normal Tuesday. There were no classes, but the whole school was required to go to the Caledonian at Logan Park for Athletics Day. The day pretty much consists of doing athletic events, eating, socialising and sitting in the stands. The day is also an opportunity for the school houses to earn house points.

That is all great but personally, I don’t care about or feel like participating in the sports events, I socialise at school with people and a whole day of it would be too much for me. And eating and sitting all day (doing nothing) is pretty much what I do at home everday, right now for a matter of fact. So again this year like the past 2 years, I have felt no reason to go to this even so I stayed at home.

Anyway, I had a nice relaxing day at home. My mother took a sick day so she was here too. I pretty much did what I normally do, and that is go on the internet. Although I did take my day off to do something more constructive. I finished reading, well listening, to my audiobook that I downloaded from Audible. A also did some light housework and got $10 for it. Finishing an Audiobook  and making $10 or sitting down and hanging around talking to people and doing absolutely nothing, what would you do?

Going to Athletics Day is compulsory and you get a detention if you do not attend. But this year, and the two before it, I have managed to slip through the gaps and have had no punishment. To be honest, as far as they know, I was there. They wouldn’t know if I was there or not. I’m not one of the loud people or the people that get noticed so my absence goes unnoticed. If I did happen to be there, no one would probably notice either.

I’m pretty happy about getting the day off, again, like the other years. I’d always trade a more enjoyable and productive day for a boring and unproductive day. So pretty much I took a sick day when I wasn’t sick, although the ironic thing is the next day, I woke up a little sick with a cold that has been progressing for the rest of the week.  Karma, it gets you doesn’t it?
