Today I tried out a whole bunch of new things. I started the day by waking up really early to bike up a quarters way through the city. It surprised me how fast it took me to get to Anthony's place from my house. With just a regular pace, it took me less than 30 minutes to get from the end of South Academy to the end of Jetwing. When I got there, Anthony and Amanda basically just woke up. After they got ready, we all left to go and watch the Colorado Torpedoes's swim meet up somewhere on the west side of Rockrimmon. It surprised me with the kind of pool they were using. This was the first time I seen an outdoor competitive pool, besides Fort Carson of course. The pool, not only was outside, but also only had four lanes. The amount of events also surprised me. In total, there were about 65 events all together. For me, I was used to going to swim meets with just 12 or 13 swim events.
After the swim meet ended, we went back to their house to figure out what was going on for the rest of the day. We were supposed to play basketball but a lot of the people weren't able to show up, so we delayed the event till this Saturday, the day after the 4th of July. So instead, I decided to just bike up to the mall to meet up with Joy. I came by a huge problem though. I biked close to Academy on Fountain, but then I hit a HUGE bump which cause my rear tire to explode. I ended up walking about a half mile to Sam's Club. There I tried to look for an replacement inner tube, but I had no luck. After eating a slice of pizza and attempting to looking for an inner tube, I kinda decided to try and walk towards the Target near Citadel Mall. On the way out of Sam's Club, I ended up running into my Ninong Larry. He volunteered to help me out and give me a ride to Target. Fortunately, Joy showed up to and I decided to just ride with her to get the replacement inner tube. The inner tube that I bought though ended up being the two inches too large. I ended up exchanging it later on that day. At the mall, Joy and I met up with Christine and got some Steak and Bake. Christine got that new Strawberry Lemonade Julius which, not surprisingly, tasted like the freckled lemonade from Red Robin's. At Hollister, I fell asleep while I helped Joy and Christine decide the clothes they wanted to buy. I had to admit, this nap was probably the best I ever had at the mall haha. After the mall, I really wanted to bike home, but for the first time I've seen in a long time, it started to rain. After I got home, I made myself even more mad by snapping the gear cable on my bike just after I repaired my tire. So after that, I backed out from watching a movie (Hancock) to take a nice nap.
