rough draft- special place
        packing up my stuff waiting for the bell to ring I tap my finger to the melody in my head.  I constantly stare at the clock as if the clock was staring back at me.  I could just here my self saying "5 more minutes 5 more minutes."  I could now not here the teachers voice, my brain blocking her out thinking too much of the end of school.  I can here my self again "1 more minute 1 more minute!"  Finally it rang.  Pushing my way through the door and through the crowd, trying to find my friends.  I see them running to them the sun shinning in my eye I get to them.  waiting and waiting for the rest of my friends to come I can already feel the stress and weight off my shoulder.  As they all came we grabbed our things and ran down the stairs.  I could see the bright blue building in front of me.  finally we were there.
       As we walked in i felt no stress of anything.  Grabbing the heavy blue chairs. poles, nets, and the blue and gray volleyballs.  walking into the back in the locker room putting on my jersey, shoes, knee pads, socks.  everything that was on my mind during school is now erased.  I can feel the excitement of everyone.  we were all talking and laughing.  everyone had a smile on their face.  I couldn't wait for the game to start.  Everyone that was in the locker ran out side.  one by one everyone took their seats.  Butterfly's in my stomach as i see the audience cheering.  I felt relaxed. 
       Finally what felt like forever it was our turn to play.  I could here the voices of the crowd as we warm up.  tossing the ball up hitting it then passing it my mind was blank only thinking of the game.  I could see all the smiles on everybody's face.  we won the coin toss shagging the balls that the hitters hit, i could see the clock counting down minute by minute by minute.  The game finally started.  we took our seats.  our coach yelling at the people at the people on the court seeing them looking nervous.  the game ended we won.
        we gathered around I could smell everyone socks and knee pads.  we were all excited and happy that we won.  our coaches were finally done talking.  we went in the back everyone cheering and talking we all grabbed our stuff and left.  I now have to go back to the stress of school and other things.
