Insanity At CBC

Community Boating Center is the where I spend most of my day as of late. My old school had a connection with them, having a maritime theme, and we used to go there and sail after school as an after school program. At the end of my last session I was totally bummed because I wouldn't get to sail there again. John (Jon?), the director, told me that if I could get the papers filled out, I could go for free. The way they allow me to go there for free is by making me a Junior Instructor (a J.I.).

Today at CBC: I first learned how to play tongue.
Rules of Tongue-
Start everyone out with four cards.
DO EVERYTHING FAST!
The objective of Tongue is to get 4 of the same card (as in 4 kings, 7's Etc. Sorry. I'm having a dumb day. I can't remember what 4 similar cards are called.). You do this by:
Taking the cards that you're not trying to match, and pass them clockwise.
The dealer picks up from the deck, not the cards passed to him/her. Those are put in a discard pile.
If worst comes to worst, continue with the discard pile.
When you get those four cards, stick out your tongue, and the last person to notice is the loser. You know who notices. Trust me.

Anyway.

The morning doesn't really matter all too much. It's really the afternoon I'd like to get to. This afternoon, The Mayor happened to be coming. It's our second to last day of the session, and we'd really like to have some fun. I get on my usual boat of insane boys, and we're off! We of course start with insane heeling, then begin to swerve from side to side. Then a KidSail instructor comes over and tells us to not heel, swerve, or even gybe. Whoopie. She wasn't even our instructor! Basically, we were a 'nice backdrop' for the camera guys recording whatever the mayor was doing. So, we go to our Super Cool And Absolutely Awesome Counselor Colin, of TeenSail. He said that we didn't have to listen to the KidSail instructor, just to have fun on our second to last day, and, just to try NOT to capsize. So, literally, maybe 30 seconds after that, we of course, capsize. We look over, and Colin is of course, laughing. He then takes his Motor Boat over to the KidSail Motor Boat, and yells at them. It was hilarious. I was then shortly after, needed to supervise a KidSail boat. So we're sailing along, and we keep asking for the time. 3:05, 3:11, 3:18. At about 3:22 they take all of the KidSail kids, and bring them on shore. Basically, we make such a nice backdrop, they don't want us docking until the Mayor leaves. Fun fun. In short, there were 3 boats being sailed by 1 J.I. per boat (myself among them), and two TeenSail boats. We were all soooo mad. Thankfully, my father was there to pick my up, and said that we needed to leave, and I got to dock, and go home.

I know that none of this sounds that crazy, but it really was. A lot of kids wanting to go home, high winds, tired hands, minds, and bodies. It was very tense. I just needed to write all that. Thank you nobodies that read my blog!
