Writing Recounts

No luck, as my lure shines in the sunlight but the more times I don't wind up with dinner the more eager I am to catch it. Jack.

I was acting as a spy hidden behind the tree. Olivia

My knees were trembling, my head was spinning and my heart felt like it was going to explode as it was my turn to start abseiling. Levi

I finally got past that part. Eli
