On Monday my mom took us to a beach in San Pedro. We stayed there for 4 hours looking for crabs and throwing rocks in the water. After we left the beach we went to go eat sea food with my cousin. When we got home we just stayed on our phones. I talked to my friend on the phone and then bought something with the ice cream truck. After that I put my clothes to wash.

There is a legend that if you wear green a leprechaun can't see or pinch you, but now it's used as an excuse to pinch other people who aren't wearing green.
