Okay so here is the cricket story… a lot of people wanted to hear it, so I finally typed it up.

Cricket Story
Okay so it kind of started with a journal that I used at school. So
every morning we had to do a journal write. But I didn't do it like
people would write journals. I did it like I was talking to someone
and use something like: *crowd agrees*
Then I would act with them, but it would be the subject we had to use
for the journal. So I used the crowd first and used them for quite
awhile, but then one day I got bored with them, so in the journal they
blew up and was no longer working.
So for a few days I though what could be my company, but since it was
so quiet there was crickets chirping. And it would always be
something like:*crickets chirping*
But then I got bored of that so I added some action with the cricket.
Soon that cricket was my company in the journal. But in the journal
the cricket tried to be brave and wasn't scared of me. But I always
won and the cricket would always be scared or either run away, but
then the same thing would happen the next time I wrote.
Later in the journal I made the cricket something else... We were
frienemies. (However you would spell it. Friends plus Enemies, put them together, do the math.)
But if the cricket did something stupid or I didn't like it, I would go
after it with a frying pan.
That should explain the cricket story…
*Crickets plays the guitar*
Oh please GO away!
*Cricket ignores*
That's it... *gets out pan*… come here you!
*Cricket squeals and hops away*
COME BACK HERE!

Now I decided to have the song and the cricket story in one chapter so yeah… I heard it from my MP3 player, and I got the song for my birthday. Until GhostDog401 heard it and she was like, "That reminds me of Sam and Danny."
So after she had said that, I'd listened to it and tried to catch the words. (I am not that well at catching words in movies or music.) And then I heard the full song and said, "She's right."
See if you think were right.
Take a Chance
She wondered why he was so slow
He wondered if it was too soon
What if she turned him down?
He was scared to try and find out
She was getting tired of waiting
If he didn't do it soon she would leave
That night he found a note
From his mamma and she wrote
Take a chance
Take a breath
Speak your mind
Take that step
She's waiting for you
To take a chance
Take a breath
Speak your mind
Take that step
Even though it's hard you can
Take a chance
...
He wanted to quit his job.
Do what he'd always dreamed of
He was thinking about
What if it didn't work out?
Was he strong enough?
If he didn't try he wouldn't find out
That night he heard a voice
Say you gotta make a choice
...
Take a chance
Take a breath
Speak your mind
Take that step
They're waiting for you
To take a chance
Take a breath
Speak your mind
Take that step
Even though it's hard you can
Take a chance
...
If you live all your life without taking chances
You're living your life without the chance to shine
...
Take a chance
Take a breath
Speak your mind
Take that step
They're waiting for you
To take a chance
Take a breath
Speak your mind
Take that step
Even though it's hard you can
Take a chance
...
Take a chance
Take a breath
Speak your mind
Take that step
...
(This song was written by a woman down the street from me.)
Are GhostDog401 and I right? Do you think this reminds you of Sam and Danny?
