Maria's Point Of View
"Maria, we better get going because it's almost time for band practice," said . I should introduce myself. My name is Maria Cecilia Moon. I am 16 almost 17 years old and I'm in a band with my 3 best friends called The Cosmic Moving Kangaroos. I play guitar, drums piano and I also sing a little. I play the drums for The Cosmic Moving Kangaroos. Caroline Geneva TannaHill is my best friend. Caroline is 18 years old. Caroline is crazy and obsessed with this artist called Ed Sheeran and she calls him a kangaroo. Caroline plays the guitar and is the lead singer for our band.
"Let's go I got my Drum sticks," I said getting my Drumsticks. I love playing the drums. I live and breathe music. I don't know what I would do with out my favorite bands. My favorite bands are 5 Seconds of Summer, Green Day, All Time Low, Panic! at the Disco, We The Kings and The Summer Set. I also love Ed Sheeran. We get in to my van and I start driving to our friend's house to pick him up because he can't drive yet. We get to Conner's house he gets in to the back of my van. Conner is 15 years old. He has his bass with him. Then finally we can go to band practice.
"Hurry up we have two minutes till band practice starts" Conner yells at me. What does he think he's doing? I'm the one driving not him.
"You want to drive Conner?" I say. Wanting to get to Brendon's house for practice. I'm friends with Conner but he can drive me nuts.
"Please don't" Said Caroline. Just as Caroline said that I pulled into Brendon's driveway. We get out of my van. We walk right in to Brendon's house because we basically live there because of band practice and gigs. We have gigs every Saturday and Friday night. Today is Thursday so it's our last practice before the gigs. Their stairs to the basements are right next to the kitchen.
"Hello Maria, Caroline and Conner, are you staying for dinner?" Mrs. Horrell. Brendon's mom is so nice to us she adores Caroline and I.
"I would love too," we all said at the same time. Great more time spent with moron. We go down stairs and see Brendon with his guitar. I put down everything except my drumsticks and I sit at my drum set that Mrs. Horrell bought me. I start drumming a random beat.
"What song do you want to start with?" Brendon asks me. We cover a lot of songs but we also write a few of them too.
"How about American Idiot 5 Seconds of summer version?" I ask. I said this song because not only is it my favorite song but I also love to play it.
"Sure let's get started" Brendon says. Brendon is the most mysterious one out of all of us. He is 16 and he has jet black hair and piercings. He may look intimidating but once you get to know him he is really sweet. Now Conner on the other hand has blonde hair. He is just over all creepy. Caroline has bright purple hair. Caroline, Brendon and I have been best friends since middle school. I have teal hair.

"Ca Don't wanna be an American idiot.
Don't want a nation under the new mania
And can you hear the sound of hysteria?
The subliminal mind fuck America." Caroline starts singing."B Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alienation.
Where everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
For that's enough to argue.""Ca Well, maybe I'm the faggot America.
I'm not a part of a redneck agenda.
Now everybody do the propaganda.
And sing along to the age of paranoia.""M You lookin' at me?"
"Co Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alienation.
Where everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
For that's enough to argue.""Ca, Co, B & M Don't want to be an American idiot.
One nation controlled by the media.
Information age of hysteria.""Co It's calling out to idiot America."
"Ca Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alienation.
Where everything isn't meant to be okay.Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
For that's enough to argue.
C'mon!""Now what song?" Brendon asks.
"Wake me up when September ends?" Conner asks. Conner listened to Green Day but he isn't as big as fan as I am. I love all their songs.
"Sure Brendon do you mind if you play Drums for this song?" I ask because I love this song and I always play Guitar. Plus this song I'm the only one singing because of something that happened a while ago.
"You know I love playing the drums just as much as I love playing the guitar," Brendon says. He puts his Guitar away and I take mine out that once again his mom bought me. I swear his mom loves me like I'm part of their family. Which after what happened they kind of are.

"Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September endsLike my father's come to pass
Seven years has gone so fast
Wake me up when September ends" I sing. Then I start tearing up of course."Here comes the rain again
Falling from the stars
Drenched in my pain again
Becoming who we areAs my memory rests
But never forgets what I lost
Wake me up when September endsSummer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September endsRing out the bells again
Like we did when spring began
Wake me up when September endsHere comes the rain again
Falling from the stars
Drenched in my pain again
Becoming who we areAs my memory rests
But never forgets what I lost
Wake me up when September endsSummer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September endsLike my father's come to pass
Twenty years has gone so fast
Wake me up when September ends
Wake me up when September ends
Wake me up when September ends" I lost it at the end I run up the stairs and outside and keep running. This was too much I can't live knowing that I was the reason why my parents got divorced. Yeah my parents got divorced because I was born. 5 years ago my mom started drinking one night she was so drunk she got in her car and crashed. After that my dad disowned me because it was my fault. He kicked me out onto the streets luckily I knew where Brendon lived so I went there and they took me in for a few years. Then once I got enough money I got an apartment with Caroline."MARIA!!!" I hear someone yell. I turn around to see Brendon running towards me. "I'm sorry Maria I shouldn't have done that I should've said no to Conner." Brendon said looking down at the ground. I hugged him.
"I'm sorry I ran out like that," I say because I truly was sorry. I didn't mean for Brendon to come run after me.
"It's not your fault Maria I understand your past but clearly Conner doesn't understand that." Brendon said hugging me. Brendon can be the sweetest person at times as long as no one steals his guitar or food your fine. Lets just say that Caroline has gotten on Brendon's bad side quite a few times. I never got on Brendon's bad side because he loves me like I'm his sister.
"Thank you Brendon you always know how to make me feel better. Lets go to your house so we don't miss dinner with the band" I say running towards the house. I love running because I can just let all my worries out. It only took a few minutes for me to get back because I can run very fast. Whenever we had to run in gym I'm always in the lead. I look behind me to see Brendon walking towards me.Brendon never likes running he is always in last.
