Hi guys,
So last week, my school had Spirit Week! Spirit Week is a week where the entire school is decorated with school colors. Middle school has competition in locker deocoration, banner, chants, etc. It was extremely fun! For our activities, we had Tug of War, Go Through the Hoop, and Balloon Stomp!
For Tug of War, 7th grade was 1st, 8th was 2nd, and 6th grade was 3rd. For some odd reason, us 8th graders lost to the 7th graders.
We were winning in the beginning, however someone fell from the front and we ended up falling like dominoes. So that’s how the 7th graders won. HUMPH!
For Go Through the Hoop, 8th finished first, 7th was next, and 6th was last! For us, we done this activity many times from past Spirit Weeks, so we zipped through the hoop like it was nothing! The 7th graders almost beat us until I guess some fat guy in their grade slowed them down. For the 6th graders, they were completely new at this so I guess they have an excuse for coming in last!
As for the Balloon Stomp! 7th grade won! (*red face*). In Balloon Stomp, each person must tie a balloon to their ankle and then run around trying to stomp on other people’s balloons. After every minute, the boundaries were narrowed down. I got out in 2 minutes! Why? Well, here’s the story:
So you guys that “guy” who I like. Well, last time, we both got in trouble for something we did and he planned to do something funny to get revenge. His revenge was to stomp on my balloon! -.- He chased me from one side of the boundaries to the other side of the boundaries! What’s funny is that, as he was chasing me, my friend (Terri) was chasing him. AND “his” friends were chasing Terri. When I reached the other side of the boundary, I stopped/turned around. I was just about to stomp on his balloon when he stomped on mine! Yeah…that’s how I got out. Unfortunately, Terri couldn’t stomp on his balloon cause he was already running away from her.
After a while of the balloon stomp, there were seven 8th graders left, six 7th graders left, and two 6th graders left. Immediately, eighth grade attacked the sixth graders and got one of them out. The seventh graders ganged up on the remaining sixth grader and stomp on his balloon. So it was down to 8th and 7th. The remaining 8th graders strategy was to pick one person and try to stomp on their balloon. Unfortunately, the seventh grade’s strategy was to get into groups of two so that they can help/defend each other. Sooo when the eighth attacked the seventh, the seventh graders stomp on the 8th’s instead because there were 2 people against 1. We only had three eighth graders after that attack and there were four 7th graders left. Finally, after so many crazy attacks, there were two remaining 7th graders, so they won…
Anyways here are some pics.
