First Point
It was a home game and we were losing by 1 point with 8 seconds left we were losing by one point and the Huskies had the ball they passed it trying to waste time but the made a mistake by passing one too many times!
Robbie stole the ball. We ran down the court Robbie passed it to Dusty the crowd chanted 6.5.4! Dusty passed it to Denis 3.2! Denis passed it to me I shot the ball 1.0 the buzzer rang loudly. Everyone was looking at the ball sail through the air. I couldn’t hear anything I could only see the ball hit the back board and in the basket. The crowd jumped and my dad was still sitting down he just gave me the thumbs up. That means he’s proud. We had won that game I got a buzzer beater for my first point. Akuma and Iram put me on their shoulders. It was awesome to get my first point.
I was delivering newspaper during the early morning hours. This earthquake hit at 5:00am. I was pulling into a residential driveway to toss the paper next to the door. As I stopped my biking felt my bike lurching forwards still(I thought my brakes were bad)Then I noticed the shrubs vibrating. I stepped over my bike and stood there on the driveway. Noticing that this earthquake was strong(and still building momentum.)The ground started to shake in every direction. I shook side-to-side, north-south, then in a circular mootion.The size of the side-by-side sway felt good for 2 seconds but I was scared. As it was building momentum, it sounded like a wind storm was approaching. I got on my bike and pedaled home as fast as I could.AS I was pedaling I saw building fall down people crying for HELP.I pedaled tell a stop sign I didn’t stop and I got hit by a semi truck and now I am dead.
