I feel like such an asshole. Yesterday I didn't go to my sister's 8th grade graduation because she told me she would rather have me go out and have fun with friends on the first day of summer, rather than be tortured by her graduation. Surprised by her kindness I went out with some people and didn't do anything particularly fun yesterday. It was a kind of disappointing first day of summer. Still, the feeling of being free from school is a nice one right now. But back to my sister, 8th grade graduation is a joke, everyone knows it, but it was obviously still an important evening for her. Even though she is fine that I didn't go, my mum told me that at one point in the night she was really sad I wasn't there. I felt so ashamed when I heard that, and even though she had a great time yesterday, I would still consider myself for the worst brother of the day. She won the same scholarship award (Elsie Vaun Award) that Emily Friedman (shout outtt!) and I won, and I could tell she was so proud. There were good parts of yesterday too though, like swimming carelessly in a pool for hours. The song of the day is ABC by the Jackson Five, because it was before he went weird. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYx3BR2aJA4
