The Ninetieth Post of a Lifetime

Look! I'm so bored I'm writing another post!
Hahahaha! I don't know what to write now....Let's see...what shall I talk about? There's nothing much I want to share really....Oh wait! there is one very funny incident during the final day of the track nats! Hahaha!
You see, all the competitors had to sit outside the stadium because the inside was really hot. So i was feeling very bored, and put my ticket into the baton I was holding. (You needed a ticket to get into the stadium or else well...you can't get in!) Then oh noes, it's stuck! So I was in pretty deep well...shit if I couldn't get it out again. So I started to blow through it. And after much huffing and puffing I managed to blow the ticket to the other side of the baton.
Unfortunately, Yi Yi, my most impatient juniorXD, took the baton from me and attempted to pull it out. Thus tearing the ticket into half. And as you can infer from the previous sentence, i was now in REALLY, deep shit.
Sooo I gathered up my wits and courage and with the help of Petrina, put the ticket together in such a way that it looked like it had been folded into half. So I walked grandly to the official at the left hand side of the gate with Joy in tow shaking her head, held my torn ticket up high and waved it in front of the official's face and said, "MY ticket." and put my arm elbow deep into the carton which he was holding which was full with hundreds of tickets. And thus I went out through the RIGHT hand side of the gate, collected another new, straight, uncreased and NOT torn ticket with Joy in tow rolling her eyes and walked back to the group of laughing seniors and crazy juniors sitting next to the pillar in the middle of nowhere with blue and white ribbons in their hair. My mission was accomplished! Haha! It was great. And it has not been exaggerated.
