Raintree Parade Essay
Title:
The Raintree parade,

Double space and indent paragraphs
It’s early Monday morning; I stretch my arms wide, and yawn as I struggle to pull myself out of bed.
I look over at the clock, Gasp! It’s already 8:30… I run around as if I’m a lunatic, and I hop around and put my pants, shirt and shoes on.
I hear my mom yell from down stairs, “James, are you up yet?!” I yell back “In a minute mom!” Begin a new paragraph each time a new person speaks.
So I rush out of my bedroom and past the bathroom in a rush, the sound of my backpack flapping against my back fills the empty hallway. As I run down the steps I’m sure to skip every other one to save time, and its just plain fun to see how many steps you can skip.

I grab my breakfast, and lunch of the counter just before I yell goodbye to everyone.

Yep that’s my family and most of the time if you asked me I indeed would change them for the world. Would or wouldn’t change them?

Just as I get to the bus stop, to my shock, it pulls up. I try to calm myself by saying everything will be ok under my breath, “Here I go, another day of school it’ll be ok you can do it James”
I climb aboard the chaotic bus, and look into the faces of what seemed like 1000 eyes staring me down. So I scan for a seat I can use, carefully though if you pick the wrong one you could end up a black eye or laughed at by the entire school, that’s my favorite of the two by the way.

To my surprise I make it to class alive for another

    That stalls us for half an hour, and then we leave. The bus gets half way back home, and the chaperones realize something. They forgot one of the teachers and the group he was watching that day, so we drive back and call the teacher, turns out they somehow got a ride home right after we noticed them missing. The bus didn’t get home until around 10:00 that night. My mom was about to unleash on the teachers and deans for getting back so late. We were supposed to be back at 7:30 pm, she was there for two and a half hours waiting for us to get back, but then they explained what happened, and that didn’t help much. She just told me to get into the car and go home. I get a call right after I get home from Mike saying he took Schroeder’s wallet, and I was just like “Leave the kid alone, man, he already had a rough day”. That was the understatement of the year, he had the worst day of his life, but he wasn’t mad at us at all. Even after we told him about the Superman seat, he just blew it off and was in a good mood. He is the most resilient kid I ever met; he takes so much from those guys, but he still likes to hang out with them. I got to show some respect for…

    Everything was loud. The overstuffed bus of children was leaving the school parking lot for its normal route of sudden stops, unforgiving bumps, and of course, transporting students to their destinations. Opposite from every other child on the bus, I sit quietly in seat fourteen listening to the screaming laughter and shrill excitement of the conclusion of another school year. I sit there in silence because I knew that it would be my last bus ride home. I was trying to take everything in: the smell of the old brown bus seats, the half opened windows that tried to keep us cool, the pleasantly plump and incredibly sweet bus driver, and the jovial and rambunctious sounds of kids cackling and yelping. At every stop, I could literally feel my heart drop a little. As the bus neared my neighborhood, my mouth was completely dry. When I saw my house, my heart stopped. There was the moving truck. It was symbol of my leaving home, and the realization that the move was going to happen, and that I had no control over it.…
