Farewell, Benjamin

Day 58

"Hey dude, stop taking my grass!"

I think it's safe to say Tuesday, July 17th was a sad day for all of us.
Tuesday was the last day most of us spent with Ben, our former youth pastor who worked at Riverview Baptist for about six years.
We (most of the youth group) went to Ben's house on Tuesday for one last BBQ, which we usually have at the end of summer. We went to the park down the street, had water fights (and grass fights), drank lemonade, and had one heck of a time together. Our last time together. </3

After everyone said their goodbyes, I left and went to the mall with dad. We drank tea, and went shopping for clothes. I ran into one of my best friends, Nathan! Like, this wasn't even planned. For someone who "hates" the mall, he sure is there a lot. After dad and I were done shopping, Kaitlyn, Nathan, Courtney, Jessica and myself went to see The Amazing Spiderman in the theatre.  It was a mildly entertaining movie, but it had a terrible ending. My rating: 3/5.

Nathan and I went in Court's time machine, uh, I mean car and we drove Nathan home. It was a pretty sketchy drive home because there was fog everywhere and then some cat thing ran across Nathan's driveway. It was actually the sketchiest thing.
Court drove me home, and I went to bed.
