Snowboard Disaster The alarm started going off and I started to crawl out of bed. I was actually excited, but it was to early and to cold to be up. I grabbed my duffle bag, board, and some food.

I leap onto the bus expecting to sit with a friend. As I saw all the faces I some what recognized I noticed there was no spot for me. As I scanned the…

Cheez-its aren’t allowed in the cafeteria. This is why. It started just like a normal day the sun was shining , there was a cool breeze, and there were some tiny birds in the trees.

I quickly picked up my bags and followed the rest of the class out into the hall which led to the courtyard. Making my way through the pavilion, I met up with my 3 friends,…

The sun shines as the yellow bus turns the corner and moves its way up the street. My mom and dad are sitting in the front seat as I am sitting in my car seat in the back. A green backpack is strapped to my shoulders. I am a tad nervous, but excited at the same time. Closer and closer comes the bus. Sun shining into the car, the door opens and I hop out onto the pavement. There are other kids waiting for the bus too. Kids that are older than I, huddle in a circle next to the red stop sign…
