The Boring Day
It was a really boring day, probably one of the most boring days I’ve ever had. I haven’t had such a boring day in a month. My computer was broken so I couldn’t browse the internet or socialize. My friends have gone on a vacation for summer break together while I had to go to summer school. Now it’s the weekend and it couldn’t have got any more boring.
My mom asked me to walk to the plaza down the street to buy some milk. I went upstairs to my room and got dressed. I decided to wear a shirt I got for my birthday. It had a cartoon duck face on it and on top of it; it said “Hi!” in big bubble letters. I also wore a pair of blue jeans, went downstairs, and then put on my shoes and walked out.
I’m walking down the street and it’s been about ten minutes. A normal person would have reached the plaza in five minutes, but I wasn’t a normal person, I was a bored person. Being a bored person, I tend to notice and observe things happening around, like a bee gathering the nectar out of a flower on my neighbour’s garden, or an airplane in the sky miles away. While I was walking I noticed this old man kicking his son out of house. “Don’t come back till you’re ready to apologize!” he yelled in a gruff voice while his son was running around in his boxers. I chuckled; he must be looking for something to cover himself up with. I would have felt so embarrassed if that were me. I continued on toward the plaza with a smile.
I finally arrived at the plaza; it was a fifteen minute walk because I was walking really slowly, even though it really felt like thirty. Taking my first steps I noticed the plaza was more crowded than I’ve ever seen it. There was this supermarket that really wasn’t that popular when it first opened. I remember coming here with my friends a while ago and it was the most disserted place I’d ever seen. Now it was completely packed with customers, cars coming in and out of the parking lot. It kind of made me happy to see the plaza doing well.

    I went to Miss Addie’s and she them covered me in makeup and gave me a wig to dress up older so that I would look just like mother. It takes three miles to get into town, but once I got to the hospital, Susie at the front desk knew it was me. Once she said my name I ran into the bathroom and stuffed my wig into my bag and washed all of the makeup of my face,…

    The most important key to success, especially in music, is repetition alongside with determination. This is probably the most difficult part of the entire process, because it entirely relies on your efforts. Preseason is the time in marching band where your willingness to work hard and repeat the same drill over and over again will either bring you success or failure. After the first couple sweat drenched days of preseason, my enthusiasm began to lessen, as thoughts about giving up surfaced upon my brain. It is not easy to wake up every day at 7 in the morning and end the day at 11 at night and keep enthusiasm, but the energy of everybody else around me helped me realize that it can be accomplished. I could have given up and quit, but that would have been taking the easy way out. If everybody else can make it through this week, so can I. So I pushed myself to my limits, tried as hard as I could, did the drill over and over, marched until I was sore, and then kept on…

    “Wake up!” my mom gave me a little shove as I took the covers off my face and looked at the clock, it was 7:20. I hopped off the bed and skipped to the bathroom to brush my teeth. I was so excited; this whole week was FCAT week at school and today was the math portion of the test. Last year, 3rd grade, I got a 3 on it while on the reading part I had gotten a 5. This year, I was determined to get a 4, no matter how difficult the test may be. I put my long, wavy brown hair in a ponytail and, being the girly girl that I am, decorated it with a pink bow my aunt had given me for Christmas. With a big smile on my face I went to my mom’s room to see if she was ready so we could be on our way, I saw her sitting down looking at her nails, “mommy, we’re going to be late” she looked up at me and it looked like she had been crying, she faked a smiled, got her bag and out the door we went.…

    This happened when I first moved to Kansas. It was the middle of summer and there were no kids around close to my age so I was alone. First i named some roses that were in my front lawn and drew pictures with them of crappy looking rabbits because that was all I knew how to draw. my mom came home one day and I ran up to her and showed her the pictures, saying "And this one rosy drew, and this one Rosetta drew and this one I drew." when I was done my mom said clearly not understanding that they were not real "what house do your friends live in?" Like the dumb kid i was i responded "oh they don't have a house they live in our front yard." Extremely confused and probably creeped out my moms said "can i meet these friends?" It was then I told…

    It was just a boring day in my hometown, a traditional, weak entrance a lot of narrative stories use to try to get the attention of the readers. This story, however, isn’t one of those traditional stories; this one involves a day that had been exciting up to that point already. The memory that resonates daily throughout my mind would have to be the time when I went to Six Flags for the first time in my life. Before I jump into my story, I should tell you my friends mess with each other a lot, almost to the point where we get into fights with each other.…

    The street’s familiar scent of tobacco and mint helped to calm my nerves. It wasn’t cold outside, however a chill grabbed at my back. The path to the station was instinctual, today it seemed foreign and alien. My steps were slow and without the usual spring, their movement matched the grim expression I wore on my face. I’m not normally one to want to be caught in the act of doing something wrong, but today, I was greatly dispirited, I wasn’t stopped. I would have thought someone cared more about me.…

    After I got dressed for my big day, my auntie put makeup on my face and did my eyebrows and my mom had also got my toes and nails down. I had went into the kitchen after to go get my breakfast. When I got to the kitchen a strong scent of grits, eggs, and sausage filled the air with a wonderful and delightful smell. As I sat down to begin eating my food, my mother turned and looked at me to ask me how my morning was going so far. I told her I was having a fantastic morning. I had helped my mom get dressed because she asked me what dress she should wear to my graduation. I told her to wear her long black and white striped dress with some heels.…

    I had only gotten six hours of sleep. I didn’t want to get up but today is the day that I get to explore Chicago with my friends! Even though I felt exhausted I pushed myself up and got ready. I didn’t know whether to expect it to be warm like the last few days have been or if it would be cold, so I dressed for both. I pulled my sneakers on and collected my little bag full of snacks and essentials for walking around all day. Getting to school I go sit with my friends outside the gym as we anxiously wait for the bell to ring. We came up with our plan of where we wanted to go as we munched on our little breakfast.…

    Today started like any other day. Mom came in and woke me up. I was still groggy like an old person waking up from a deep sleep. My mom laid out my clothes last night. She takes care of me like a king takes care of his people. I do not know what I would be without her.Once I got dressed and mom helped me put my shoes on. We walked downstairs and Lindsey and Shannon, my sisters, were getting ready for school. I walked downstairs to the first floor and saw my dad leaving. I ran to him to give him a good bye hug. Then I had breakfast. I am pretty sure that it was scrambled eggs with ketchup. My life is as hectic as an exterminator during an infestation. Or so I thought.…
