Soccer Game
I was really nervous last night when we played our rival team in soccer, Nordic U10. We hadn't one even one game this session. Nordic U10 was undefeated. I rode over with my twin sister Katie and my friend Nicole. We listened to music that got us really pumped up. When we got out of the car in Essex, we knew that we were going to win. We warmed up with the rest of our team. We played very hard in the first half. We played with a new formation. There was 1 forward, 2 mid-fielders, and 3 defenders. I was forward first. I didn't have to defend too much actually. I was just supposed to stay up always, pretty much. at the end of the first half we had kept it 0-0. This was the first time in this session that we hadn't been scored on in the first half. As we played in the second half, we scored! We were beating them. We played really very good. We always play better in our second halves for some reason. The other team scored. We were tied now, 1-1! "We might actually win," I thought. We played very well. We scored again. They almost got 2 goals on one of our goalies. The ball bounced of the post once and the second time i was sure it was going to go in but then it missed by literally 1 or2 inches. The game was nearly over. With about 15-10 seconds left in the game, one of my teammates ran down the field and almost scored another goal for our team. We had won against an undefeated team!!!!!!! We were all more happy then ever before!

Scene No. 1, At The Andelson's Home
A- Come on, Haley! We don't have forever!
H- Coming! We don't have forever! (Mimicking Alda)
A- Shush up, already.
H- Try it yourself.
A- I'm leaving. Alone. ( Alda leaves home)
H- Who cares about going to the park? Honestly.

A- Hi Rachel. Hi Ryann. Hi Sonya.
R- Sup, Alda. Hey, where is Haley?
A- Oh, she wasn't ready when it was time to go, and so I just left her at home, and she will hopefully figure out where I am. There is a note on the fridge for Mom.
( Alda and Rachel do extremely complicated handshake, though they make it look like they are just eating their favorite food.)
A- I thought that you just did an exceptional job on the handshake.
Alda and Haley
Scene 1, At The Andelson's House
A= Come on Haley! We don't have forever!
Coming! "We don't have forever!"
Shush up, already!
Try it yourself!
That's it, I'm leaving! Alone.
Fine, Bye!
Good riddance I say!

Scene 2, At The Park
A= So nice to be alone.
Hey Alda! (S)
Hey Alda! (R)
Hey Sonya and Ryann! I have been looking forward to seeing you here the whole week practically. I can't believe that you are finally here.
Narration: Sonya and Ryann are both 10 year old's from the next town over. They never get to see Alda. Alda, age 14, had suffered a serious disease and had always acted a few years younger than she actually was. She had met Ryann and Sonya when they were all at the hospital in Calico because Alda was suffering a bad disease, and because Sonya and Ryann had both gotten cancer. The disease apparently ran in their family because their mom and dad had both gotten it at their birth. Their triplet, Rachel though, had mysteriously survived. Alda met them because their rooms were all in a row in the hospital, and because when they were all getting over their sicknesses, they had to do a physical therapy class together. She met Rachel when Rachel came to visit her sisters while her parents came very briefly to drop Rachel off for an hour. They had started by just playing board games in Alda';s room. Then, when they were all over their sicknesses, they all went to their houses and only got the chance to see each other once a month, because all of their parents were not the kind of parents that just let you ride your bike along the highway, the fun way. They were all the kind of parents who didn't think that their kids were the slightest bit important at all. Even though none of them cared even the slightest bit for their kids, they never let their kids do anything fun at all. That is why Alda didn't ask her mom if she could go to the park, she waited until her mom had left for work to leave her a note on the fridge, telling her that she and Haley were going to the park.
A= Hey guess what? Anita, Juliana, and Chrissie are all coming home next month. Arte, and Cameron are coming back in 3 months. I honestly can't wait to see them- Hey, there's Haley!
Haley over here! Haley!
Hey come over to our house and we can play pool and play in the pool while your little sister plays with our old Bratz dolls.
A= Come on Haley! We don't have forever!
Coming! "We don't have forever!"
Shush up, already!
Try it yourself!
That's it, I'm leaving! Alone.
Fine, Bye!
Good riddance I say!
