Tug of War

one! two! three! pull! could be heard repeatedly on and on. The crowds cheering wildly and the coaches rapidly yelling one! two! three! pull!. It was a partially cloudy day with a bit of sunlight. It was the day the finals of tug of war was held. Teachers encouraging their students, crowds of people cheering wildly. Students running for first place, and a show for rollerblading with teachers and students. I was so excited for the finals that I could hardly wait. It was supposed to be after the rollerblading show. When the rollerblading was done, it was time for the finals. My classmates and I held the rope, the opposing team did so too. At the sound of the gun,My classmates and I pulled with all our strength, the opposing side did the same. I pulled and pulled with my classmates. Finally the first round was won be the opposing team. We had the second round, but the last was lost. So we were in second place. I was okay with that, because it was fun and I know my classmates and I did our best. At last we were dismissed to go to the carnival. I bought three scoops of ice-cream and one sausage on a stick and all that was only seventy-five Taiwanese dollars, equal to around two American dollars! When I finished my sausage and ice-cream I went home to take a nice, long shower. That was the end of my day with the tug of war, so i went to sleep.
