My important moment.

I'm going to write about an event that happened to me on January, two years ago. I was visiting my family in Nicaragua, I went with my mom and my brother to my grandmother's house for a few days because the next week I had to go to a camp. We spent like three days there with all my mom's side of the family and the final day I came back with my aunt Lilliam, uncle Erick, my cousin Fernando and my grandma. The trip was really long and I was feeling sick about something that I ate so my uncle took another way to get to their house, a very dangerous highway. Many people say that in that highway happen lots of accidents but that never cross our minds. Well, I was tired so I started to fall asleep on my grandma's shoulder and like twenty minutes later I hit my head in the car's door, I heard the car making a noise like if we were in a race and all I could see was dust everywhere, I had no idea of what was going on and then my cousin screamed like a girl, which really scared me. After that, we stopped. I asked what happened and my aunt said that a huge truck was out of his side and hit us and the car that was in front of us. I got off the car and the thing that really freaked me out was watch the car so close to a ravine, and all the right side of the car destroyed. When I saw those things I started to cry, I don't know why but I just did, I cried. And my grandma said that God was taking care of us because we could die there, it was pretty serious and nothing bad happened to us as the people of the car in front of us, that car was turn down and the people were really hurt with broken legs or broken arms, I'm not sure but I think that the driver was about to die; all my body was shaking, I was terrified and then my grandma, my cousin and I started to pray and give thanks to God because we were alive! After that, the friends of my aunt and uncle came to see what happened and if we were alright and they took us home.

The Goonies


I choose Mikey of The Goonies. He's a smart, ambitious and a great leader. In the movie he is the brother of Brand and with his friends found a map of a pirates treasure. He lead The Goonies to find the treasure but they had to escape of a band of criminals named The Fratellis. They had to find the treasure inside a house where the Fratellis were hid. At the end when everybody wanted to quit and just get out without any treasure, Mikey as a leader convince The Goonies to keep looking for the treasure until they find it. I really like the optimism and the perseverance of Mikey because I'm a very optimistic person and I fight for the things I want in my life just like Mikey.
