7:25 a.m. — Look in the mirror, still look 15 …

7:45 a.m. — Take a shower, wash my cucurah! Wash mouth.

8:01 a.m. — Put on make-up? Nope, still look 15 …

5 p.m. — Survive one-meter board, as I attempt to fold like a pretzel.

6:00 p.m. — “COME TO THE PIONEER CLASSIC at da BEAR and watch 12 schools do what they do best!!, 12/6 @ 6 p.m. and 12/7 @ 10 a.m. & 5 p.m.” – Princess Grace
