The Weekend

By Grayson F.

            My mom, my brother , his friend, and I were heading to our beach house. During the car ride down we watched a movie. The movie was called Bansky. A great movie about one of the all the time greatest graffiti artists ever. After we arrived, and then we put on are bathing suits and, headed to the beach. We swam at the beach for at least four hours. After a long time spent in the water, we went to get ice cream on the boardwalk. We got the ice cream and while we were walking back we remembered that my mom told us to not take too long because she had an appointment for the new pool. We raced back to find that she was gone. We were all very disappointed because we had spent all day at the beach in the water and we didn’t want to walk a few miles home. We started walking home and realized that if we stop at our mom’s friend George’s antique store it would take half as long as walking. So we asked if we could use George’s phone and we called our mom. After waiting an hour she finally came to pick us up. It was pretty bad but at least we made some money helping George move some furniture.

            We knew we were going to be at George’s for a while. We had nothing to do so we got asked by George.

            When we got home we took showers. We played outside until it was dark and then we went inside. After deciding what we were going to do that night we got in the car and drove to Harris Teeter.  We bought diner and we bought a movie. The movie was called “Hunting Season” with John Travolta and Robert Dinero. We got home and ate. After we ate we watched the movie. The movie was horrible and it was too violent for my mom. So we had a great suggestion from Cameron to watch a movie called “Donnie Darko”. It was a great movie of a boy with a bad sleep walking in the night because of this bunny named Frank. The bunny was a man wearing a costume. The costume was pretty scary. And every scene in the movie that included Frank she fast forwarded. It was now my favorite movie.  After the movie we went to bed. Although it was only about 8 o’clock on a weekend. But we had to get up in the morning and clean and then go home because Cameron and I had a lacrosse game.

            The next day we didn’t clean that much because there wasn’t that much to clean. We ate breakfast and we were off to the lacrosse games. That was the only reason that we woke up early. We were going to try and miss the traffic. Everyone must have had the same idea because we were stuck in the traffic for two and a half hours. We knew we were going to be late but we also had to drop off Berj, pick up the right equipment, and then head to the game. Cameron’s game was starting right when we got there. My game started right after Cameron’s game. I was the first one there and there were only eleven kids there. You need at least fourteen or fifteen.  The game was starting but we had no subs. The other team didn’t offer to give players off their team. Well it was only an hour had bad could it be. I will just say it was very bad. Our team was horrible compared to theirs. I scored with my left hand though. I don’t remember what the score was but I would rather not tell. That’s how bad it was. All the kids on my team were new so they didn’t know how to play. The good thing is nobody got hurt and nobody’s stick broke. I was sad when we lost. I am not a good loser. But hey I scored with my off hand. So in a way I was proud of myself.
