HOW PRECIOUS LIFE IS
Eight o’clock Friday night my friend Peter knocked on the door to pick me up, we were going to this kid’s party named Jason whom his parents owned a huge house. I told Peter “ we are going to have fun there but don’t start drinking because you are going to drive on the way back” he turned his head and gave me this look as of course not, I wouldn’t drink and drive. We got into his ride that he has been bragging about for the past month. He had recently bought this car after two summer jobs and intense saving. It was an 87 Chevrolet camaro with a V8 corvette engine, which barley had any problems; I guess the previous owner took care of it.

Furthermore, people were acting ridiculous for example a skinny kid named Michael got punched in his face by one of the drunken college kids just because he stepped on his new shoes. The college kid demanded that he would kneel down and clean it up but Michael refused to do such a degrading act in front of all his buddies as a result they engaged in a fight which lasted for about ten seconds. Suddenly it got quiet and all the attention was focused on the fight. Clearly, somebody had to do something or Mike’s head would be torn off in the next three seconds.
