“Nope” I said. Eve looked at me desperately. “Please Mari? Harry is a great guy!” “Uh huh” I said. I don’t even bother with these blind dates anymore! Evelenne or as everyone called her, Eve, was always matching me up with stupid people! The first guy was a literal CLOWN! Now she wants to match me up with Harry Seamister. He really sounds weird. But, I’ll go with him for Eve….
“Hi.” Says Harry as...
Winning a week-long sunny vacation couldn’t have come at a better time;it almost seemed to good to be true… I entered a raffle for a week in a mansion at the beach. I knew I wouldn’t win! But…..3 weeks later I got a call from CheepzSweepz.com. I picked up and suddenly I heard,”CONGRATULATIONS TO CECILIA MOON FOR WINNING OUR SWEEPSTAKE!!” I squealed and said,”OMG REALLY?!” “Yes!

Soccer,Art,Ballet,Gymnastics,Track,Hip Hop, Jazz,Singing, and now,pageants! I really don’t have any competition here. I mean,not to brag, but I have blonde hair,blue eyes,and fair skin.

“No Way!” Said Gramma. “I refuse to believe this!” “Yes Gramma! Cable is not free!” I said. “In my day,there was one channel! And it was free!” My grandma had just moved in.
