Sam's Chit-Chat

On one sunny hot last day of school I woke up so happy because all year I had been waiting for summer. It was the last day of school I had worked really had in school and I couldn’t wait for summer but when the last day of school was over I was sad . But the most exciting part of summer for me was my birthday. My mom had said that I could have a party with all my friends but then she had said that we were going to San Diego for the weekend. But I was mad because I did not want to go San Diego for my birthday but my mom had said that we were going. So we packed our clothes and all the other things that we needed for the weekend then we put a full tank of gas  in the truck. Finally we were on our way to San Diego but it was a really long drive I had got so mad frustrated because it was hot and I was mad anyways. So to get my mind off of gong to San Diego I started readng a book on the way over there but  I got bored. It was REALLY REALLY REALLY HOT because there was 6 people  in the car and I do not like being hot especially in the car on the road to San Diego. We were passing through New Mexico and Arizona but I had fallen asleep the whole time I only woke up like five times on the way to San Diego. Finally we arrived at the hotel in San Diego it was two days away till my birthday I was still pouting because I wasn’t  at home with all  of my friends  having a party. But my mom had kept telling me and telling me that everything was going to be o.k. and for me just to try and have a good time. But I did eventually have a good time we had went to two beaches I forgot what one of the beaches was called but the other one was called La Jolla beach. I was freezing cold when we got out of the beach so I had took a shower in one of the little showers but the shower water was also cold so that made me mad. Then we had went to the In ‘n Out Burger their burgers were really good my lemonade tasted really good it had felt like the lemons were just squeezed. My fries were really good my mom even asked for another plate of fries and took them with her when we went back to the hotel and my mom had fallen asleep because we had went to the La Jolla beach we went to that beach for like four hours one of my big sisters Susana was just reading a book on the beach freezing cold. But me and my other sister  Laura we were looking for seashells to take home. My brothers were just playing in the water I tried to get near water but when the water splashed me it was freezing cold I felt like I was in the North Pole. The other beach we were there for like  to hours that beach we were lying down on the floor and rolling on the floor but when I was facing the water and lying down the freezing water splashed my whole face I screamed really loud. My mom was like “WHAT!!” I said the water is really cold and splashed my whole face. She said “Oh my gosh Samantha you screamed for that.” I said “yes.” My brothers and sisters said “oh my gosh be quiet” and splashed me with more water and them and my mom started laughing I just “LEAVE ME ALONE” but I was joking around. After that we left and went back to the Hotel and fell asleep. The next morning we had breakfast then were on our way home. But we had to stop in Arizona to put more gas but my mom did not feel like driving because she was tired so we went to a motel and slept in for the night. Then we all woke up in the morning took a shower got ready and were on our way back home. I had fallen asleep again all the way through Arizona and New Mexico. Finally we arrived in our own city FINALLY our sunny hot beautiful El Paso when we had gotten home we all took a shower then we all fell asleep we did not even unpack our clothes. But when we woke up it was around like 4:00 p.m. we had gotten ready and we all went with my dad just to see him and we went to Wendy’s and since were the kind of  family that when were done eating we just sit there and talk and talk. But then when we were done we went back home we fell asleep and our little trip to San Diego was the most fun in my life. I guess my mom was right I had a great birthday and a awesome vacation. I LOVE SAN DIEGO IT IS SO BEAUTIFUL AND SO MUCH FUN!!!! I think next year is going to be better because I know that on every year of my birthday i’m going to be surrounded by people who love me and who I love that is all that matters to me. I will always love my family no matter what. I will always love my mom because she does anything to protect me and my siblings.

ERRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!! The buzzer rang the Dragons had twenty points and were in the lead. Roadrunners were losing they only had ten points. When it was halftime they went in a huddle the coach was pressuring them. He was struggling trying to make a plan. When the coach had a plan they just ended up losing twenty to eleven. The very next day they had a practice. The coach was getting frustrated. One of the boys was having a hard time breathing. So the coach mad e them run and run. My brother has asthma so it is hard for him to breath. The coach had them practicing for a long time. In the gym the next day they had practice. While the boys were scrimmaging one of the boys fell on the ground while trying to catch one of his teammates.When the coach saw him on the ground he yelled ”OH NO!!!!” Angry as can be his face turned red he looked like a monster!!The coach got real furious. The other boy had already made the shot. On Saturday they had their very last game. They were playing the Dragons again. Roadrunners were losing they had fourteen. The Dragons were in the lead with twenty-eight. The boys were done with basketball season. As the summer passed my brother got up on the first day of 7th grade basketball tryouts. Jumping out of his bed he yelled “Today I am trying out for the basketball team!!” As cheerful as can be my mom yelled “Alright baby!!” My brother was so excited. The time had come my brother was at the 7th grade basketball tryouts. The coach made them do free-throws, jump-shots, suicides, and scrimmage. The boys were doing a great job while scrimmaging. They are awesome ” Way to go boys you’re doing a great job.” As the boys were doing better and better, my brother was making a shot the coach yelled ” Alright boys suicides line up!!” The boys did as they were told they all ran as fast as lighting. That was the end of the first day of tryouts. The coach went into the locker room and printed up the first cut of boys who made it. My brother was so happy he made the first cut. On the second day my brother tried his best. At the end of tryouts the boys followed the coach who was hanging up the list. My brother without looking said “I hope I make it and I hope there is a better team this year.” My brother came back and said he had made the practice squad but we said”That’s o.k. as long as you  can be part of the team.”" Right.” he said ecstatically. ” I am so happy right now.” my brother said.

My goal is to do better in Science. Because when there is some kind of assignment, I look at it, I start thinking but my mind just goes blank. I start understanding. I write something down, but when I get my paper back it sometimes is a good grade or a bad grade. I’m struggling in Science and I think I need help like to be in tutoring. So that at the end of the year I can look at my report card and at least get a 90 or above. I want to hear Mrs.Vega tell me that I got commended on the Science TAKS TEST or at least passed not failed. That is my goal. I want to pass my Science TAKS TEST that is my most important goal this year is to pass the Science TAKS TEST. I want my mom to say ” I’m proud of you Samantha!!” I want to pass really bad. If I don’t I won’t be proud of myself. I feel sad. I want Science to be my best subject.

On one cold freezing morning Amy the little girl went to the cold basement and was looking for christmas lights. She is going bananas looking for them she can’t find them anywhere. Amy finds lights but not the one for the Christmas tree. So she runs up the stairs and yells

“Mom I can’t find them.”

“Can you check again baby please.”

“Yes mom.”

So Amy did as she was told she ran back down the stairs to look some more. Finally after going crazy Amy had found the lights and the ornaments. She was looking in the can and found a talking green ornament. He said

“Why hello there my name is Mr.Green and who might you be.”

Amy was so scared she was speechless. But she starting talking to him and thought it was fun. Mr.Green was telling her that he did not like to be put on the Christmas tree. Every day Amy goes down to the basement to talk to Mr.Green. She tells him

”How are you doing? Are you o.k.?”

Three days before Christmas her and her mother were decorating the Christmas tree. As Amy and her mother were putting up the ornaments her mother said

”O.k. baby lets put up the last green one.”

”No mommy can I keep this one.”

”I guess Amy.”

So Mr.Green was still in the can. Amy and her mom were hanging the lights on the Christmas tree. Finally Amy and her mother had finished decorating the Christmas tree. While all the other ornaments were up on the Christmas tree Mr.Green was there in the can terrifed. He was shaking. So Amy had gone to the basement to put the can in there with Mr.Green in it. Amy had put on her pajamas and went to bed. In the morning Amy got up and went to her mothers room to talk to her. Amy woke up her mom and her mom got up rubbing her eyes and yawning. Amy said

”It’s Christmas Eve but………………………”

”Mommy we have to talk.”

”O.K. sit down.”

”This may sound wierd but I can talk to an ornament.”

Her mother had this look on her face that said are you crazy or something.

”What are you talking about.” said her mother.

Amy was telling her that the green one that she wanted to keep was the talking ornament. She said that his name was Mr.Green. Also that Mr.Green had told her that he did not like being put up on the Christmas tree. As Amy was teling her her mother started to understand what was happening. So Amy took her down to the basement and showed her Mr.Green. So Amy and her mom went to the kitchen to cook breakfeast. When her mom was cooking, Amy went to the basement to talk to Mr.Green and tell him not to be afarid to be on the Christmas tree. Also she told him to get over is fears and be brave.

”Mr.Green you can’t always be scared to be put on the Christmas tree.”

”I know Amy but I just have not learned how to face my fears.”

Finally Amy got Mr.Green to agree to be put on the Christmas tree. So before Amy went to bed she hung up Mr.Green on the Christmas tree. On Christmas day Amy woke up to a surprise Mr.Green was still hung up and had a smile on his face. Amy as cold as can be did not care as long as it was Christmas.

”Merry Christmas Amy.” said Mr.Green

”Merry Christmas Mr.Green.” said Amy.

”Merry Christmas Amy and Mr.Green.” said her mother.

”Merry Christmas mother.” said Amy and Mr.Green

”May I call you mother.” said Mr.Green

”Of course.” said Amys mother.

So Amy was unwrapping her presents she was as happy as can be.

When I was six years old my Aunt Jeannie was going to take me to the doctor because I was really sick. I didn’t want to go anywhere. So my aunt and my mom were trying to get me to get out of bed. So in ten minutes I finally got out of bed. My mom said my appointment was at 10:00 so I got in the shower. Then when I got out, my mom blowdried my hair, picked it up in ponytails and curled my little bangs. When we were ready, we drove to the doctor’s office.

When we arrived, the doctor called my name. We went in, and he weighed and measured me. We went back out, I was watching Nemo. Then they called me back in he asked my aunt what was wrong with me. She told him I had a bad cold and was coughing and coughing . Then he looked at my tongue – it was really red. He looked in my ear he told me it wasn’t that bad. So he gave me a shot as the long, skinny, silver needle went through my soft skin. I burst out crying. It really really hurt. We were walking to the door he gave my aunt the prescription.

In two hours, we went to go get my medicine. We got out of Walgreens then all of a sudden I heard a noise ” Bzzzzz!!!” So I ran behind my aunt. The bee was really big it was black. I quickly ran to the car with my hands in the air “AHHHHHHHHH!!” When the bee stung me on my palm, I was crying and crying. My aunt drove really fast to the hospital I was so scared!!
