“Alone in The House”
When I was 13 years old my parents went to one of their friends’ houses, and my brother went to his friends house for a sleepover. I thought staying at home by myself was going to be fun, but it wasn’t. At first it was alright because I was just playing video games with my friends. When it started to get dark outside was when I started to hate it. I used to watch scary videos and movies when I was little, and at this time I thought a monster or a ghost was lurking around in my house trying to find me. I locked myself in my room, and just sat in bed scared. After a couple minutes I went on my phone to try to forget about it, but then I heard a noise from outside. I was scared of wanting it to be over. I sat in bed the whole time on my phone, but then I eventually fell asleep. After I woke up it was all over, and my parents were home asleep.
“The Memories kept in Your Mind”
When I was young in 3rd grade my class had an in class project to do. In the beginning of class my 3rd grade teacher Mrs. Brown told the class about a clay dinosaur project we would be doing in class. The project seemed fun because it was an arts and craft project. After a little thought about it I started to talk to my friend Brandon. We always talked about legos and a game called Roblox. “Attention class, I am going to go over the instructions”. Everyone went silent to listen to Mrs. Brown. She told us that we would have to shape our dinosaur first then after she shaped it we had to let it dry. When the clay is done drying we would have to paint it, and after we finished we would have to give it to Mrs. Brown, so she can put it in an oven. I was put into a group of six to do my project with, and luckily I got into a group with my friend Joshua. When it was my group’s turn to do the project me and Joshua started to talk the whole time while molding our clay. While molding my clay I saw my other group members clay dinosaur, and I got jealous because it looked better than mine. After I was finished I told Mrs. Brown that I was finished, so she helped me put it somewhere to let it dry. The Next day I was able to paint my dinosaur, but when I was young I used to put no effort into my art. I painted my dinosaur all brown to make it fast. After I finished painting my dinosaur I gave it to Mrs. Brown again to put it in the oven. A couple weeks after me and Joshua were talking about games until Mrs. Brown told us our dinosaurs were ready. Me and Joshua sprinted to find ours, and after we found our dinosaurs we started to compare and argue who is better looking. Then after the day ended I was able to bring it home.
“Searching for Treasure”
A while ago when I was in 6th grade I used to talk to lots of people, but never hung out with them. I used to hang out with this one group that I used to talk with and play games with a lot, but it felt like I didn’t fit in with them that well. Then in my math class I started to talk to a boy named Henri. We talked a lot in class, and then randomly we started to hang out. I would hang out with his friend group a lot at lunch. After talking to him I found out he liked stuff that I liked, so I got closer to him. A couple weeks passed, and I got invited to play with his group of friends online. There was Henri, Alex, Anthony, Japheth, and Jaden. I started to play with them a lot, and I enjoyed it because they made me laugh the hardest when I played with them. I would have lots of fun with them throughout the days I spend with them. They were the real friends I was looking for.
“Late at Night”
Around 6th grade me and my friends were thinking of pulling off an all-nighter. Around 8 pm at night we thought it through, and we were going to try to play games all night. We started off by playing fortnite until 1 am, and around that time I thought I was going to get caught by my parents. I heard them walking to my room, and I pretended to be asleep. They opened the door, and saw me sleeping thinking I was asleep. After I left I locked my door, and continued to play. I was playing with 3 of my friends Henri, Japheth, and Jaden. We kept playing Roblox for around 4 am until Henri got too tired then slept. Japheth, Jaden, and I kept playing until 7 am until Jaden got caught playing, so he had to go to bed. It was then me and Japheth that were still awake, and he was able to finish staying up all night. That was my first all-nighter I’ve ever pulled.
“First Day”
After I had graduated eighth grade I was happy that I was able to go to high school, and see what the high school is about. Before my first day of high school I was very nervous because I knew it would be more different from middle school. On my first day of high school, I arrived early with a friend. I arrived thirty minutes before school had started, so I had lots of time searching for my classes. After around fifteen minutes I found all my classes, and I was ready for school to start. When I went into my first class which was Spanish I was nervous, but then I got comfortable meeting new people. I started to talk to a guy named Nathan and Nick. It was cool talking to them, but then after I had P.E. I knew no one until I met an old friend. His name was Vance, and I talked about school a little with him. After I had a break, I grabbed breakfast and sat down waiting for my friends to come to our hangout location. The food was really different from middle school, so I was happy about that. After I had math where we all did a bingo sheet meeting new people. Then after I had English class. English class was pretty boring though, but what made me happy was that lunch was after. When the bell rang I walked out to the lunch line to grab food. I then went to search for my friend group. After lunch I had art that was really fun. I had two friends in that class which made me happy, and we were able to sit near each other. The whole period was mostly just us laughing. After it was then my last period which was science. Science was alright, but I knew no one there. One guy tried talking to me, and then we got along. I was pretty bored in that class though I wanted to leave. The class felt like eternity waiting for the bell to ring. After I heard the bell rang I walked out going to my dad’s car.
