I woke up at 5:00 am sharp. I wanted to catch the big waves that came around 6:00 am. I ran down the stairs from my bedroom and got my board. I yelled to my parents, "Going to the beach with Katy!!" I then heard my mom whisper something then heard her say, "be back by 1 pm for lunch!!! Watch for killers!!!" My mom always joked around with me, she called sharks killers.

I actually really like sharks. A Great White swam under my board 2 years ago. I will admit I was scared, very very scared. I then ran down the little wooden stairs that went down from our front door. I ran to the street to see my best friend Katy pull up. I threw my board in the back of her pick up truck, and flung myself in the backseat. "Why are you here Krissy?" I snapped to my enemy Krissy, (Katy's 10 year old bratty sister) "I decided to show you my skills, since I'm better then you 60 pound skeleton surfer!"

I am 5'3 124 pounds. Yes, her 10 year old sister is bigger than me. I have been surfing for 10 years though. Krissy, on the other hand has only been surfing for 1 year. Yuppp a year, only a year. It took about 2 minuets till we arrived at Angela beach, the beach all three of us have always surfed at. We all put are boards in the water and quickly paddled out till the water was about 15 feet deep. We all stopped to look down at the crystal clear water. Krissy screamed when she looked down.

Me and Katy almost had a heart attack till we realized she had only seen a dolphin. We then started waiting for the perfect wave. We all were surprised when a humongous wave appeared in the distance and we all started paddling. We all stood on our boards and rode the wave. Me and Katy panicked when we couldn't find Krissy. I dove down in the extremely deep water and searched for Krissy. I kept looking until I thought I saw someone swimming. I was relieved when I saw Krissy pop out of the water. "hahaha!" She said. "You thought I was dead!!" Me and Katy were extremely angry. We yelled at Krissy and forced her to sit on the beach for the rest of the time we were there. When we finally left, we had ice cream at are local ice cream shop.

Me and Katy both didn't have TVs at are houses, so we always watched tv at the ice cream shop since they had one. As we all watched the tv we saw 5 boys on the screen. It said on the top of the screen, One Direction. We all whispered to each other "Who's One Direction?" We kept watching until we found out they were a British boy band. "Interesting," I said. As we all finished are icecream we decided to go home. After Katy dropped me off at my house, I started walking up the wooden stairs. "Really!" I shouted as I looked at my clock it was 2:30 pm. "HOLY COWI AM DEAD!" I thought, grounded, no surfing argghhhh!!!

I sprinted in the front door scared to find out what my mom would say to me for being and hour and a half late home. "Hey" my mom said. She said it nicely? Didn't she see the time? "Ummm it's 2:30 pm what's my punishment?" I said "Michelle," she said. "What? What's wrong?" I said "There's a hurricane coming named Amy, a really bad hurricane. It might destroy our town Michelle," she said. I didn't know what to say, I was so sad and shocked at the same time. I didn't say anything. I walked into my room and called Katy. As soon as the phone started ringing I got nervous, and I don't know why. "Hello" I heard in a sad voice. "Katy" I said. "I already heard Michelle, my mom told me as soon as I got home."

I thought how sad and real this actually was. It wasn't just the everyday prank my mom plays on me. "I need to go Katy, sorry, bye." I said. I then hung up the phone. I ran down stairs and walked up to my mom. "When will it be here?" I said. "They said tommorow..." My mom said. "Your dad's in the living room I would talk to him if I were you, he's been glued to that radio since we found out last night." "LAST NIGHT!!!!!" I screamed "You didn't tell me until now????" "Michelle, calm down you father and I just wanted to let your last time surfing to be as best as it could be." My mom said.

"Last time surfing??!" I cried. "Yes, I'm sorry," she said. I then ran up to my room and slammed my door. Next thing I know a car pulls up to our house. Movinau inc. I guess it was a moving truck? I ran outside and soon found out it was a moving truck. For the next few hours I was forced to pack up all my belongings and put them in a moving truck. I all of a sudden remembered something. I ran up to my mom and yelled. "Wait?!! where are we moving to?" I said

"I am so sorry I forgot to tell you about something so important." She said. "We are moving to London, England." My mouth dropped. London, England, what is there to do there, shop? "I can't even mom, arggghhhh!!!!!" I said. "Sorry Michelle, it's time to leave." She said. I fought to get in the car till my mom finally threw me in. I fought for the next few minuets in the car until we finally arrived at the airport. As I rolled my suitcase into the humongous building, I remembered something. MY BOARD!!!!!!!! I left it at my house!! "Mom!" I yelled, "I forgot my board!!!!" I starting freaking out. "It's ok you won't need it anymore,"My mom said. "But it's my board mom!!!" I screamed. She grabbed my arm and pulled me for like ten seconds until I noticed I was getting on a plane.

I was bumped multiple times till a pretty lady walked up to me and showed me were to put my suitcase. I was very confused, since I'd never been on a plane before. I sat down and started thinking about my friends. Where are Katy and Krissy moving? I thought. I wonder if I will ever see them again. I slowly drifted off to sleep and woke up when I heard another one of those pretty girls say "2 minuets until we land everyone!" I started shaking wondering what it would look like when I got off the plane. When the plane finally landed, everyone started getting off the plane.

I grabbed my suitcase and followed my mom until we were right outside the door. It was freezing, I was used to 90 degrees not 30. I followed her down these steps, until I found myself standing in a giant parking lot in 30 degree weather. I looked around, and all I could see were woods. I then followed my mom and dad until we were walking inside of a new airport. I got mcdonalds, then started walking out to the parking lot. Me and my parents walked around for a while looking for our car.

"Really!" "Why are we looking for our car?" I said. "Hahaha!!" We all laughed. We were looking for our car, even though it was back in Australia. "Oh! I forgot to tell you guys!!" My mom said. "I got a rental car so we can save up for a new car." She said. "What does it look like??" I said. "Its a Smart car," My mom said. "Are you serious!!!" My dad yelled. "Haha!" My mom said. "I'm joking." "Ohhhhh..." My dad said. "We'll, what kind of car is it then?" I said. "It's a Black Jeep." She said. "Cool," I said. We then found the car, and got in.

After we were driving for about 20 minuets, I noticed we were in a neighborhood. "Where are we?" I said. "We are in our new neighborhood." My mom said. The neighborhood was really pretty, but I wasn't going to admit it. "Really mom, this neighborhood is is ugly!"I shouted. "Michelle, it's really pretty," My mom said. I didn't want to be mean to her so I stopped talking. Next thing I know we're pulling up to our new house.

It was light grey, with a white porch. It was actually really pretty. As I started getting out of the car my mom said something. "Hey!!!!!!!!!!!" She yelled. "What" I said. "You can't go inside before me and your dad," She said. "Why?" I said. "I don't know just don't," She said.
