My egg friend

Walt: think about my purpose and reader by planning my recount

I used to like egg races until yesterday. Yesterday we had and egg and spoon race.

Races themselves are difficult but yesterday was the top of the top. Check this out.

Egg races are hard because, you really have to concentrate while doing it. You

will probably get the feeling the spoon is heavy because you are moving alot.

We were in buddies and we each got one egg per group. My buddy Lani drew a face on our egg. While my buddy was coming with the egg I felt extremely nervous. I was waiting at the other side of the park and I thought what if I crack it or drop it. But that wasn't the worst part.

My buddy Lani had given me the egg. While I walked through the park I was scared but I sort of succeeded. I was happy but when I was one foot away from the finish line  my egg fell onto the ground. Luckily my egg never broke or cracked.

I think that next time I will go a bit slower so I can gain control over my egg. To be honest I don’t know if I will ever do that again. If I do it again I will probably think about what I'm going to do before I do it.
