Sailing season is over :(

Today was the last day of high school sailing. Tomorrow we are deriggigng, which is sooo sad. Today was the best day though, we were practicing righting the boat after capsizing because appanretly we suck at it. It soon turned in to a "who can capsize most boats" game, where people were boat hopping and hanging from the mast trying to capsize the other peoples boats. The water has heated up significantly, which is pretty good. That means that I can probably wear my spray pants and jacket instead of the drysuit when i start sailing vanguards next thursday. Today was so much fun though. People were taking the rudders off peoples boats so they had no control over it. I also skippered in two races, both went to hell. Hopefully im better at singlehanded boats because you dont have a crew to keep track of. In school today i made the coolest flash movie with a big red button and a santaclaus. Definetly one of my better works in flash. Im not that good at flash, i like creating still images better in photoshop and fireworks. We have to start our end of the year projects soon, i think im going to make a website instead of a really long flash movie.
Yesterday I was cleaning Mikes boat which was not htat bad, then i was starving to death but they decided to go to the diner, I am tired of diner food so i waited with eating until i got home. At home i had meatballs and potatoes. I also saw the DaVinci code, the book was better, but definetly not one of my favorite dan brown books. I think that all of Dan Brown's books are exactly the same except a different place and sometimes different people. Anyway, trevor got a vanguard 15 for his birthday and i am so excited to sail that. Then longshore opens on saturday which means that i am going to take out a laser every once in a while and learn to singlehand a boat.
