This weekend ending up being kind of boring. Friday after school Madison and I went tanning and Courtney came with us for some company. After tanning we picked up Shawn from Tim Horton's and we all got our bathing suits and went hot tubbing at Steven's house because his family just got a brand new hot tub. We hung out in the hot tub until 7pm and then we all got dressed into our clothes and went to the fair in Brandon. In my car I took Madison Johnston, Courtney Laursen, Chris Bertrum, and Haley Linski. Stephen took Shawn with him in his car, and we met Landon in there who took his own car too. It was seven dollars per person to get into the fair and another thirty five dollars so you could go on the rides. We decided that that was too expensive and three of us ended up crawling into the trunk of Steven's car so we could get in for free. We went on rides until about 11:00 pm and then we met up with Travis and his friends: Myles Samson and Nolan Spiess. We went on three rides with them and the rest of the night everyone played carnival games and went home with their arms full of stuffed animals. The whole night was really scary because people were constantly fighting, getting arrested, getting stabbed, or super drunk. One person even died on one of the rides. As it got to around closing time we decided to get out of there before we got ourselves into trouble because so many people were trying to pick fights with anyone would fight them.Once we left we went to MacDonalds drive thru and everyone got some food and we went back home.
On Saturday I studied for a little while then Courtney and I decided to have a picnic in the park.We laid there for about three hours and got sun burnt ( its gone now) until we finally went home. After I got home Ainsley texted me and asked me to hang out so she came over for a little while and we hung out in my yard. Garret Simpson came over for a little and hung out with us until he left and Paige picked up Ainsley and I because she was suppose to go to the fair with Tanner Pid and she didn't want to go alone. Therefore Ainsley and I went with her and instead of spending all of the money to go on rides again we snuck into Paige's trunk to get into the fair and while Paige and Tanner went on rides Ainsley and I went and hung out in the beer gardens. (yes, we got in) People kept buying us drinks and by the time we left the beer gardens we had no idea where we were really but we ran into the petting zoo so I got to pick up goats and kangaroos on my adventure. Paige finally found us and we all sang and danced the entire way home. I even pretended to play the guitar for them. When we got back to Virden Paige dropped Ainsley and I off at my house and she went back to her house. Courtney called me because she wanted to hang out that night too so Courtney got dropped off at my houes and we all went for a massive walk around town. There were people partying everywhere! I had never seen so many people around town in my entire life. We pretended to drive peoples golf carts around when we actually didnt even get them started and we messed around with everything in our track. We never did any damage to anything though. Eventually we walked Courtney home and Ainsley and I walked back to my house and went to bed.
Sunday was just a really bad day for me. I was hungover all day and I couldnt eat. Travis was planning to come and see me after work but when he got home there were no vehicles there for him to take to my house so he never ended up coming which just made me grumpy. Then one of my friends from Swan River told me that they were driving through Virden and they were gonna stop in to say hi which they never ended up doing either which made me even more grumpy. I was probably in the worst mood I had been in in a long time. I eventually just went to sleep so I could stop thinking about it.
Today I slept in till 8:45 which made me late for school. I have a job interview after school to work at a hotel for the summer. I hope I get it becaues I really dont want to work at Tim Horton's anymore. Courtney and Ainsley also have interviews there after school so at least I dont have to go alone. Other then that I will probably study all night because my exams start in three days.

The Summer Fair
Do you like carnival rides? Well, if you do, and you’re in Brandon during the third week of June, come to the Summer Fair. The fair has things to do for everyone, young and old. For the little ones, there’s the kiddy section. For older people (or people who don’t like the rides) there are displays to see inside the Keystone Center. Of course there are rides, games and food. To get in it’s about $4 for a child and $12 for an adult. If you want a wristband for unlimited rides, it’s about $20. The Keystone Center (which is where the fair takes place) is on 18th Street and it’s next to impossible to miss.
Check out some rides like the Inverter, the Gravitron and the Hurricane. (Don’t go on the last one if you have a weak stomach.) There are other rides at the fair but those are my favorite. There are many games at the fair and you’re sure to find some that you like, unless you save your money! I like the food at the fair, and there is quite a selection. My favorite food is the mini-donuts. There are also corn dogs and hot dogs. On Saturday, you can come and watch the Demolition Derby. On any day of the fair, you can see the circus. Watch a man shoot himself out of a cannon, see car displays and more!
If you get hungry and don’t feel like eating at the fair, you can go to Gulliver’s which is near the Keystone. When I go to Gulliver’s, I like to have a steak and maybe some fries. After Gulliver’s, you can walk down the road to Dairy Queen for a dessert. I suggest that you try a blizzard or maybe a Sundae.
The Brandon Summer Fair sounds good doesn’t it, well, it’s even better to be there. See you at the Summer Fair!
