Tryouts

The day I had been waiting for, was finally here. It was the school tryouts for the talent show. The mornig went as usual. The late bell had announced that class had started and we all had to be in our seats. As always, we got to work right away, and I couldn't wait for class to be over, even though it had just started. The whole day went pretty much the same, except for fourth period. As the big hand on the clock approached the 40, I started to shake a little, and I could see how more and more drops of sweat kept landing on my paper. I was nervous. I mean how could I not be, knowing that I was just a few minutes away from dancing onstage for a whole crowd. Finally, the dismissing bell rang, rriinng!!! I ran out of class to go meet up with the others and practice for the last time our routine. We didn't have the music, so we had to do it without it, it was bad. I mean we couldn't get the counts right without the music. We were up next, and we were a little nervous. All we could do now was go out there and show what we had learned, and that's exactly what we did. At the end of the performance, everybody clapped, we got offstage. Now we were anxious to know the results, but the judges said they would post the results sometimes this week. Now I'm just waiting for them.....
