3rd grade: I was staring that club write in the eye, it was staring at me like a hawk. The contact was so loud, it sounded like a bomb, my ears rang so loud it hurt. I put my hands on my head but something was not right, instead of my fingers stopping at my forehead they went inside. I looked at my hands and they were just red, all red. My instinct was to scream, so that’s what I did, even though I didn’t feel anything. I laid down and some random guy sat on top of me and started to hold my head together. Then I heard my step mom’s voice and that gave me a huge sigh of relief, so now I was calm but still slowly dying. I heard my dad 's voice too but it turns out he wasn’t even there, he was just on the phone with my step mom and she …show more content…
My mom picked me up from my dad 's house that day and told me there was a surprise waiting for me at home, as we arrived home I bolted inside and looked in my room, no shiny new bike. I was so disappointed. But then my mom walked in and told me to have a seat on the couch, she handed me an envelope and said happy birthday. I opened it and inside were 3 red wings vs stars tickets. I looked up at her and she was smiling ear to ear and I smiled back at her trying to hide my disappointment, I didn 't like hockey? Why would she buy these for me? Clearly that bike would 've cost less than those tickets. I acted excited but was really just thinking about the horrible 8 hour car ride. Nevertheless the day came where we were headed to The Motor City. The car ride was just as bad as I had thought and when we finally got there I had no thoughts about the game that night what so ever, just thoughts of my hotel room bed and my dreams. The ride there just put the icing on the cake for the horrible trip, we took the people mover and it was so cramped you couldn 't move an inch, someone was even using my head as a armrest. Once we went inside I laid eyes on Joe Louis Arena for the first time. We were watching the game for awhile and finally I watched as a player shot and the back of the net shook, everyone jumped up and started screaming, the horn started blaring. Chills ran down my …show more content…
We shopped for about 8 hours that day so we were all hungry and tired. We were trying to find a place to eat so my moms boyfriend Jason suggested hooters because he loves their wings, so we located the nearest hooters and went there. When we got there as soon as we walked through the doors we noticed a very large black guy eating a huge pile of wings, Jason said he looked familiar but he didn 't know why, so we sat down and began eating our dinner. Then suddenly Jason dropped his wing right out of his mouth and said “I know why he looks familiar, he 's on the Packers!” And I said no way. So the next time our waiter came to our table we asked her if he was and she said yes, so we let him eat and as soon as he was done and walked out of the door we both sprinted out after him. Jason tapped him on the shoulder and asked he said Mike Neal and Jason said no way you play for the packers! So we both shook his hand got pictures and he went on his way. I thought it was pretty cool to meet someone famous just out in public eating dinner like a normal

    We were leaving the house and, of course, running behind. I forgot to pack my gear, didn’t wake up in time to eat breakfast, and was tired. When my family had finally gotten into the car it was an hour after we had originally planned to leave. After about an hour and a half of driving, we stopped at McDonalds for lunch and then again at a gas station so that we could all use the restroom. The original plan was to go check in at the hotel before going to the game, but that just was not possible anymore.…

    4:15 happened to be the time I begrudgingly woke up this morning. Blinking a few times to really make sure my watch was correct, I rolled over onto my back and stared up at the bunk above me. Not expecting it to make too much of a difference, I didn’t turn on my miniature battery-operated fan the night before, so I woke up sweaty and miserable. Apparently, the Honduran heat began just as early as the sunrise, which just happened to be around 5 a.m. every day. It may have been the sixth day of an eleven day mission trip, but new jobs and long hours each day led to a complicated circadian cycle.…
