Just to start off, this past week has been crazy!! It was full of a lot of firsts, good and bad. I went swimming for the first time this summer. Actual lap swimming. It was kind of a wake of call of how behind I'm going to be every B day fourth period for swim team. We were swimming and Jake told me that I had done literally one tenth of a workout. On the way to swimming I was pulled over for the first time. I like to think that I am pretty cool under pressure, but that was scary!! Fortunately I was only given a warning. Unfortunately, apparently everybody I know drove past while I was pulled over and decided to tell the world, so it's no longer a secret. Later, I went on a date for the first time. It wasn't really my first date, but it was the first date where I asked the girl instead of being asked. The date was fun, and I'm already planning more. I'm excited for a couple of dates I'm planning with a few specific people. The following morning I went rock climbing and lead climbed for the first time. Lead climbing is crazy difficult. Instead of having the rope already strung through the top, you are bringing the rope up with you and could possibly fall upwards of 10 to 15 feet and slam into a rock. Well I guess this is just one more step on the way to me becoming a professional rock climber. While I was sitting at Harrison's house achieving the highest Black Ops score in my career, I received a call for a job interview. The interview wasn't bad, and I'm basically hired. In order to get this first job, I had to take my first drug test. I didn't do anything wrong, but apparently that's the kind of people a moving company attracts and they just have to be sure. I've turned in the drug test but was given a 20 page packet for insurance and billing before I can start. I completed my first Eagle Project. I know that one is a stretch but I'm trying to keep with the theme. That was a relief to have my parents stop hounding me! Part of completing an Eagle Project (in my family), means you receive a shotgun. So now I have my first shotgun, and my first real gun actually (excluding BB and airsoft guns). Tonight, I'm going to my second Bruno Mars, but I guess you could say it's my first concert this summer. I am super excited for this concert, especially since his new album is fantastic! Tomorrow I get to drive down to Schofield with my family and go fly fishing for the first time. I hear fly fishing is a lot more fun because you're constantly involved in the fishing, and not just sitting by a lake killing time, with a fishing pole that also happens to be in the water. This week has been hectic, wild, and full of tons of excitement.
