Grumble, grumble. Oh I'm hungry, you think, so you decide to make french toast. First, you take out a skillet to cook and you turn the stove on low. Second, you melt the butter in the pan and stir it with a spatula. Third, you beat the eggs. Fourth, you dip the bread in the egg mixture. Fifth, you grill the bread. Finally, you sit down and enjoy your french toast. Yum!

"Hi, Martha!" You call out as you see your best friend.

"Hi!" she replies, "do you want to come to the pool with me?"

When I went to the store, I witnessed a girl crying on the street and I took a closer look and saw it was my friend. I walked to where she was and asked her what was wrong.

Se said, "Family problems."

Being a good friend, I told her to call me later if she wanted to talk about it.

The dew on the grass made my running shoes damp. It didn't bother me. The sound of my feet hitting the street formed a rhythm. I timed my breathing with the rhythm.
