Lately, the water level of the Red River has been rising, threatening nearby houses. So, people have been volunteering to help build dikes. With sandbags. Lol. So, the school offerred to help if we were needed. We were. So, we were supposed to head out around 9:30 this morning, but we were running late because we were needed elsewhere, and we needed to catch a different bus. So, whatever. First period goes by. Nothing. Second period goes by. Nothing. but on the upside, since I volunteered to sandbag, I didn't have to take the quiz (Which I would have failed), and so the teacher gave me (And the other few people sandbagging) 100%!!! And we also didn't have to do the assignment that the other kids had to do. Poor Sam. And Nick I guess. Ahah!
And yeah, third period comes around, and by this time, I did not think we were going anymore. But then they begin to call names to go to the site. My name wasn't called. A few minutes later, my name was finally called. Lol.
The school rented transit buses to take us there. So, we get there, and almost immediately we begin. At first we act stupid and make 2 rows, and each pass down our own rows. VERY STUPID! Then we go in a criss cross zig zag formation. So, then we get going, build two layers, and run out or sandbags. We take a break while we wait for more to arrive. So, I'm chillin with my friend Justinne, who almost fell so many times. xD And yeah, we eat cookies and drink soda. After it arrives we go back to where we were, and begin again. And let me say this now, I'm short, so it's hard for me to hand the sandbags to someone taller than me, and they occasionally grab my boobs by mistake. xD I'm pretty sure he noticed quite a few times, and tried not to, but it was hard cause I'm so short. xD Anyways, some were so light, but most were so freakin heavy!! OMG!! LOL. But yeah, after it was done, I sat down with justinne and we ate cheese sanwhiches. ^_^ Yummeh. Also, apples slices from McDonalds. And um, when we left we went back to the school, and I went to my class (I'M JUST THAT AWESOME!! lol) And Sam and Nick were cookin brownies. I washed their dishes, and they gave me some.
I'm going back tomorrow. This time Sam will come with me. ^_^ Yaaaay! And, uh...Yeah. When I got home, I chilled in the tub for about 15 minutes. So good! Haven't bathed in like, forever. I took showers though!! Lol. But yeah. Hokay. I'm done now.
ALSO!! I had been craving something for the longest time, but I didn't know waht it was. It was physical labour. After all that lifting, I feel SOO MUCH BETTER!! OMG! I feel so renewed!
