I was too late. I saw another bus and I got on it. I realized we wasn’t moving so I got off and I looked at the tires and all of them were flat. So, I went to get on the walk. There were cars going up and down the road. When I looked up, there was another bus. I got on and I had to pay. I didn’t have any money with me. I am just going to talk the rest of the way. A bus came up and asked me if I needed a ride. I got on and there was nothing wrong with it. We traveled 5 miles and broke down. I just sat there, crying. We was sitting there for like 10 minutes and they fixed it. We was on our way to my college. I sure hope my teacher is not mad at me.

Everyone else is so happy and I’m having the worst day …show more content…
Arizona just went home and went to bed. I couldn’t do anything because I didn’t have any money. This morning I wasn’t feeling the best anyway. I think I may be getting sick. My vehicle has been towed and I didn’t have a car. I was walking home and wasn’t paying attention. I hit straight into a tree and fell down. I never wanted to get up, I just sat there. I was crying because it hurt so bad. I have had enough today so I’m going home and going back to bed. “Why does this have to happen to me?” she recited, “I give up on today.” I think I honestly might stay in my house
