I knew going to the beach would be a bad idea. I had a trigonometry test this morning that i completely flunked. I guess it's pretty much Finny's fault I suppose, since he made me go to the beach without really giving me a choice, but whatever. Later though, Finny told me that I study too much, and accused me of going for being valedictorian. I denied it at first. I literally never even thought about that, but the idea of it kind of pushed me to study more. I asked Finny what he would do if i won valedictorian, and he jokingly said he would kill himself. I know he wasn't serious, but he did seem a little upset over the fact that I could be better at something than him. It would be pretty cool if I acheived that accomplishment, though. Later, Finny wanted me to come watch Leper jump off the tree for the first time. I was studying though, and in my mind, there was no way in hell Leper would do that. I guess I blew up a little on Finny, but I ended up deciding to go. I ended up jumping off the tree with Finny, but something unusual happened this time...
