2nd place:
I woke up this morning and found a man from milwaukee sitting next to me. I was totally speechless when I found that he ran around in underwear and never shaved. "Ewww", I exclaimed and thought the whole situation was more than a little weird. He finally spoke and said "I've been thinking of you." I told him I had been thinking about Hanson and not some bald guy. "Where's the love?" he asked and I told him to go ask Lucy. He wanted to know who she was so I opened up my yearbook and pointed her out. "Look at you!" he shrieked pointing to an aweful picture of me from a couple years ago. I told him all yearbook pics were aweful. Then I went in to the tv room hoping he would leave me alone. He trailed me saying something about a mother bird. I told him, "I could definantly live a minute without you!" I wanted to send this crazy guy back to Albertane but my thoughts were broken when my friend Madeline called. "Help me! I'm coming over!" I screamed into the phone. " Wait and I will come to you" she replied. When i got back to the room the bald guy was nowhere to be found and sitting in his place was Taylor Hanson. I wanted to sit and talk but he got up, told me, "I'll be with you in your dreams" and in an MMMBop he was gone. THE END :o)~ By: Brittany
3rd place:
When I looked up an saw the eagle flying high above my head, I was "Thinking Of You." Everything after that changed. "In an 'MMMBop' you were gone", and I was "losing my hair." It was really "Weird." "I was in a cookie-cutter world, I was different and I couldn't win." It reminded me of when you "acted so 'Speechless'." "You've already decided to deliver the blow. "'Where's the Love,'" I think to my self. I would like to be together again, I wish you looked at it as, "We've gotta change our point of veiw, if we want the sky blue." Days and weeks went by, it seemed like so long. "The minutes seemed like hours and the hours seemed like days, when the week went by, it took my breath away." "l can't live another "Minute Without You." I started to look through the "'Yearbook,' and I found that empty space." At the dance, you "Walked in with that look in her eye." All I could do was "Look at You." To try to keep my mind of you (which this didn't work so well), l struck up a comversation with my friend, "Lucy." I whined to her, "Now I don't have nobody, and I was such a fool." She walked over to you, and sent you over. lt was like l had never talked to you before. I was all scared, and shaking. After we started talking though, l relaxed a little more. Our song, "I Will Come To You" came on, and we danced, and you said so sweetly to the words of the song, "When the night is dark and stormy, you won't have to reach out for me." I'd do the same. All was going great until "Madeline" came. l know she is absolutly in love with you. Yup, the same old story, "Here we go around again." You lightly told her that you didn't like her, and after, the dance was history in my eyes. That night all I dreampt about was you. You were right, you had told me, "I'll Be With You In Your Dreams." I thought about "All of the good times." One of my favorite was the time we met that "Man From Milwaukee." "He oviously didn't shave, and form the look on his face, to the size of his toes, he came from a place that nobody knows" One day, I hope my dream will come true, we will live in the 'Middle of Nowhere" toghter forever. ~ The End ~ By: Adriane Gelea
