My friend and I were in a band in middle school. Our first concert was on my birthday so the concert was basically my birthday party. I invited everyone I knew for this moment. My whole family, my crush, and my other friends. The day of the concert was exciting and nerve racking. I had my sparkly outfit, my bedazzled guitar, it was great! Until I went on stage. The bright lights shone in my face. My eyes were blinded. Seeing the black figures of people in the audience, I spot my crush. I fainted. With the lights, playing a song I learned the night before, my crush in the audience, I couldn’t handle it. I woke up laying in my bed. “Oh thank god it was just a dream” I say in my head. My mom walks in saying, “ Happy birthday and concert day!!” She yells in excitement. “WHAT!!” I say while frantically getting an outfit. I found the same sparkly outfit as in the dream, the same guitar. I quickly toasted a piece of bread until its burnt toast, grabbed a glass of water, quickly gulped that and my perfectly buttered toast down my throat and headed to the concert arena. Quick rehearsal, done and went smoothly. My nerves quickly went down. Then came show time. I panicked once again. Thinking of the bright lights, my crush in the audience, “I can do this” I repeated over and over again to myself. “It's show time!” Our lead singer said. I quickly hopped up the stairs onto the stage, setting my beautifully bedazzled guitar and took a deep breath, with my heart beating in my head. “Bum bum. Bum bum.” I start playing the intro to the song. My fingers are stringing across the guitar. Moving, flowing, without my brain even helping. The show went great. My crush came up to me and whispered, “How about we hang out sometime soon?” He gave a graceful wink and slowly walked away. I couldn’t be happier.

Carlos walked down to the kitchen, grabbing a glass of water to drink. He filled it with water and set it on the counter, where his cat jumped up to. As Carlos turned around, he saw the cup on its side, and water spilled off the counter. The cat sat next to the spilled water, watching it drip off the side. His mom walked out the room, checking the kitchen for the loud sound she heard. Carlos cleaned the water his cat spilt with a rag, and mopped the floor. The cat sat there watching him clean up for its mistake

I was in a rally league online, when the race took place. I was in first place. When I drove on a narrow road I hit the e-brake too hard while holding the clutch down during a turn. I spun off the road because of a simple mistake. I got dropped down to 3rd with my best friend Sebastien. We fought hard to reach first place. Finally we caught up to first but so did our rival, Leam. He was decent on the track so for him to catch up was a mystery. All three of us were fighting for first place then Ryan came and swapped out with another racer. Ryan is the best in our league. I beat him only once and I've been doing these races for a while. While Ryan was in the mix he caught up to me and I was in first place, with two laps to go he passed me and started gapping me (gapping means when a racer gets farther and further ahead of you). As we hit the fast lap, I started to catch up and so did everyone else. We were head to head to the finish line! Then he spun out doing the same mistake I did! I won the race coming home with the victory!!

The drop

I asked my friend Jabari if he wanted to come with me to the drop after school today but he said he had football practice again. The drop is where all the high schoolers hang out. Even though we are in junior high we sometimes go to see if we can catch something cool happening. “Sorry man I just cant miss another practice or my coach said he wont put me in on our game against Summit View.” Jabari said. “Alright well, see you later man.” I said. After Jabariafter Jabari left, my friend Luna overheard and offered to go with me. “Hey Luca if you want I can go with you!”. Rochelle is the friend who never backs down from a challenge or competition. She is the person who is always at the front leading and directing no matter what we're doing. I only accepted because I didn't want to go by myself because sometimes the highschoolers get a little crazy. We made it to the drop after school but when we got there it was empty. The sky was cloudy and the waves were crashing hard against the cliff’s edge. “Wait, where is everybody?” I said.

I had got a keyboard for school for my piano lessons. My mom,my sister, and I were going to put the stand together and as we were putting in the screws we saw that we had put it on backwards. So we had to take the whole thing off and put it on again. We were almost done building the stand when we saw we had a bunch of supplies left over in the box and we realized we had built it wrong again. So we were building it for the last time we finally finished. It was pretty big so we had to adjust. It was pretty hard to do but we figured it out eventually.

There was a girl playing first base, a girl playing third base, then a girl batting. The girl that was up to bat hit the ball towards the girl playing third base, when the ball got hit to the girl playing third she threw it to the girl playing first. The third baseman was rushing to get the out because then we could have a chance to win but wasn’t thinking straight and just threw the ball without even looking where to throw. It was such a horrible throw that the girl playing first base had to jump towards where the girl was running. After the first baseman jumped to catch the ball the second she caught the runner ran into her then the first baseman got the air blown out of her. The first baseman was so hurt she couldn’t speak or get up! While the first basemen was on the floor the coach on the opposite team told the runner to keep running while the first basemen was still on the floor. Then the next inning the first basemen had to sit out.
