The birds began to chirp and the sun was shining. Jack and Juno were sitting on a park bench together. Neither of them was smiling. After a long period of silence, Jack said, "This isn't going to work. I mean, you're a dog person and I'm a cat person." Juno nodded. A tear rolled down her face. Jack went on, "If we got married and bought a house, what kind of pet would we get? Some kind of cat-dog? Somebody's going to be unhappy." Juno began sobbing and said, "Ok, let's just end it now. Have fun with your slobbery dogs." She jumped off the bench and ran into the woods.

Melissa opened the escape hatch. She was scared to jump, but she realized that the airship was sinking. She looked at Michael, who was strapping on his parachute. Michael locked eyes with her and then he realized the error in his conduct. "I'm sorry, Melissa. That was ungentlemanly of me. Let me help you with yours."

If you don't understand something in class, don't wait. Raise your hand and immediately ask for help. Do it while your teacher is still explaining the material. Your teacher will probably be happy that you are taking an active part in your education and should attempt to explain the material in a different way. If you are still confused, ask your teacher if he or she is available after class to give you additional instruction. You are worth it. Don't give up on yourself.

The bell rang. "Oh no! I'm going to be late for ELA! I've got to go," said Casey to her friend Sam. Sam rolled his eyes and said, "Little Miss Perfect can't be late." This upset Casey. She hated when people gave her a hard time for trying to do the right thing, especially Sam. "Quiet you," she said while swinging at Sam with her folder. He narrowly dodged the strike and said, "Be careful now. Attacking another student is a level two offense." Then he smiled a big, cheesy grin at her.

"You already told me this story," said Patrice. She looked genuinely disappointed. I laughed awkwardly. "Sorry," I said, "I didn't mean to bore you with a rerun." I tried to laugh it off but she just wouldn't let it go. "Don't you even consider your listener before you tell a story?" she inquired acerbically. This caught me off guard. I replied, "I'm just trying to keep you entertained, Patrice." I pleaded. She smacked me down with another sharp comment, "Yeah, well, you should try harder."

Jackie and Sasha giggled. Neither of them realized what they had just found. They thought that they had discovered a cool looking rock. They had no idea that they were holding a real life dinosaur egg. This surprise would dawn on them later, when they brought the egg home.

Grilling a turkey leg is easy. First, give yourself enough time. If the temperature rises past 350 degrees, you may burn your turkey leg. So, keep the temperature low, and give yourself plenty of time to cook the turkey. Set your burners on low and leave the turkey on the top rack. Flip your turkey every 15 to 20 minutes. During final twenty minutes of cooking, brush some barbeque sauce on your turkey leg. Now prepare to eat a delicious meal!

The muscles in his arms and shoulders were tightening. "It's now or never!" Smitty shouted. Brad dug his heels in the dirt and pulled with all his strength.

The stage was bordered with beautiful lights but otherwise dark, yet in the center was a single spotlight, and in the center of that was microphone stand. I slowly crossed the stage with my hands by my side. The crowd whispered. I grabbed the microphone from the stand and cleared my throat. Then I held it a few inches from my face and said, "Greetings, my fellow Thunderhawks. Are you ready to get excited for the pep rally?" One guy clapped slowly.
