“Watch me!” I feel the crazy rising inside me. I will win. I will win. I will win!!!
Some people say ‘winners never lose and losers never win’ but that’s a total lie. This loser is a winner! I know how that sounds but so what! I did it once. I can do it again.
“I just need to get my head in the game,” I mumble to myself.
Pinkerton sighs. “I take it I can expect a Rocky marathon tonight.”
“Of course,” I reply. Duh. “Also, hot chocolate will need to be replaced with raw eggs,” I tell him. “With extra marshmallows,” I whisper so Julia doesn’t hear.
Stop judging me! I’m a Zombie. Sugar is necessary to our survival. Do not tell Julia I said that!
I didn’t plan it but It looks like I’m going to do a triathlon. I’ll be an Iron Woman. No! An Iron Ninja!! A new year. A new goal. I am so going to rock this! # Ninja Power!! k12
