The Gas Ran Out

There was a clown dancing in the mud. Was the clown tickling my feet? Did the clown just pull my hair? I opened my eyes, I saw my brother with a huge smile on his face. It was you I thought. "You ready?" my brother asked. "Not really, as I can see you barely woke up to." I said. "Actually, I got up an hour ago." "Just get out! I need privacy to change!"
"What's privacy?"
"Out!"
Samuel is my little brother who is a toddler.

Then we went to Burlington. We bought shirts, pants, socks, and I bought headbands.
When we were on our way home ,the car began to crackle like popping popcorn. All of a sudden the gas ran out!

"Yup" Dad said.
Dad walked to Frank's house. We were at Seven Eleven drinking slushies. Samuel's favorite flavor is Blueberry Blast. Mine is Coco Loco.
Dad came back, and filled up the tank. Dad drove us home. We didn't notice it was 10:00, so I didn't go to sleep.

    On Monday January 31st there was IP practice. When I walked in they were talking about lipstick so of course Ms. Legina said something about me always wearing dark lipstick. Even though now I'm trying to think when she saw me with lipstick. But anyway I was putting my music up and taking off my shoes. I put my hands in my adidas and leaned over to Ms Legina and said something about which colors I had and sauntered over to the circle.…

    Waking up in the morning, I didn’t want to leave the bed. It felt nice to sleep in a bed. Taking a look at the time, it was about five in the morning. Stretching my arms and legs, I sat up and pulled the covers off and put my feet on the floor. Walking into the bathroom, I turned on the light and looked at my appearance, using my fingers to comb my hair out, I pulled the two pieces on the sides and on top and pulled half of my hair into a bun.…

    My Dad is an extremely hard working person. He is always up and ready for the day before anyone else in my family and He is also the last person up always working on His projects. Just as much of a harder worker He is my Dad is also twice, even three times nicer than. My Dad is the most loving person I know, He has been extremely supportive in all my endeavors in life. He always reminds me of how much He loves me and care for me, He also sacrificed so much of His life to give me a better opportunity. He works selflessly to provide for my brothers and sisters all our necessities and goes the extra mile to ensure that we have everything we need to be successful. He always is there for me when I need Him. He would literally drop whatever He is doing just to hear me rant or if I need a shoulder to cry on. He never belittles me or my problems and insecurities. He constantly reaffirms me of my potential when I feel just like garbage. He is always telling me I am destined for greatness, I am priceless and worth more than the world to Him. Even when I hear Him tell me these things over and over I believe Him because He is extremely genuine. It is actually because of Him that I want to help people with my life. He always told me to never be greedy or money hungry, but that I should use my wealth to help the poor. He never looks down on people in a worse position than Him, He always calls other people our brothers and sisters.…

    That crazy dream! The guy was in a dream I had a couple of nights before. I remembered waking up around two o'clock in the morning with the conviction that it was some kind of warning. The next morning I'd dismissed it from my mind, thinking it was ridiculous. Now I wished like hell I could remember the dream and how it ended. I turned for a quick glance at my passenger, hoping I'd recall the dream if I saw his face again.…
