My 5 Pictures

5 Pictures

“Oh no you didn’t”, I shouted out! Water splashes everywhere. Colored rubber was all over the cement. I remember having a confused look on my face. “Who did that”, I asked. Running seemed like 10mph was sickening. Heavy breathing coming from everyone, while trying to get away from those ambitious rivals. Black eye makeup running down my cheeks after I got hit in the face with one. A drenched shirt covering my body. There goes that anguish and confused look again. “Who did that”, laughter coming from a corner, It was my crush,” take a wild guess”!

“Ready to get spooked”, I asked. It was the 31st day of October and very windy at that. Leaves were drifting from one path to the next. Glowing orange edible gourd like fruit on every porch. This night I fantasize of the chocolate, blow pops, bubble gum, and sum skittles just until I hear the roaring sound of that vicious chainsaw coming closer while we were running to that chocolate covered Honda on the red painted curb. “I can’t believe they got your car”, I laughed. “Well in lease we got more chocolate than we expected”

We may not be upperclassmen, but we for sure will have our senior skip day”, I laughed. It was the third month of the year almost spring break but not quite. I loved this day, it felt just right. Not too cold, not too hot, it was cloudy and warm, just how I liked it. My friends and I were goofing off and doing flips on that black and blue bouncy trampoline. Nearly killing each other while wrestling one another. Cat fighting is what I call it. Eating chips, candy, and drinking cold refreshing Dr. pepper while watching 106 & Park jamming. “Next time we do this gone have to be actual spring break”, everyone agreed “Yep”!

“I’m Sorry, you can’t get into the movie without an I.D showing that you’re 18, said the salesmen. Damn I never knew I had to be 18 to go on a date. Well that’s what it felt like to me. My Boyfriend and I was sitting side by side outside the theater full of anger not being able to see a movie because there’s not a parent or “guardian” around. “Would you want a parent tagging along on your date”, I asked aloud. We finally politely asked a friendly guy to purchase our tickets so we could see the movie we desperately had been waiting to see. “Despite my anger, I’m glad I was able to see the movie with you”, I said to him afterwards with a smile while he walked me to my mom’s car.

The 18th year of my life is what I’ve always waited for. It was 9-27 and I couldn’t remember a day I was happier than this one. Getting hugs from family, friends, and the guy who is no longer my crush, but now my boyfriend was exciting. Walking a rose-pedaled path toward his room so thrilled to see what’s behind the door. Suddenly I see what’s behind the door and it’s three huge helium feeled balloons, a big fluffy teddy bear, a card full of words that will never be forgotten and adoring red and yellow roses just waiting for me. A week later after my birthday, I was still celebrating, yep believe it! My boyfriend took me out to get my grub on at Red Lobster, and man didn’t I? That food was so delicious. Then I turned to my wonderful boyfriend and smiled again while saying”, “I Love You”, and “I Loved my birthday”!
