Imagine living in a beautiful home, having good health, and having a family that is full of love and support. It is not a dream. It is my life and I am blessed. My name is Michael Klein. I have a dad, Tim, a mom, Kerrie, and I also have a sister, Chelsea. I am 15 years old and the youngest in my family. Even though I am the youngest, I am the tallest in my family. I am a caring, outgoing, and friendly person. One of my favorite things to do is play sports which I have been playing since I could walk. Events in my life like family vacations, church and baseball games can all be described by music. While I enjoy listening to music, it is not something I do often. However, music can play a big part in showing emotion and feeling, and can also tell stories about a person’s life. I can use music to describe my life. One event that I most remember in my life is one of my favorite vacations to Universal Studios in Florida. When my family entered the park, we were amazed at how gigantic it was. My favorite ride was called The Hulk which was a massive green roller coaster. The ride began with the car moving slowly inside of a dark tunnel. Then, out of nowhere, I felt like I was shot out of a cannon. The car reached 60 mph in 3.8 seconds and immediately went right into a corkscrew and then a huge loopty loop overlooking a lake. I traveled over the lake into another tunnel with mist shot at my face. The ride lasted for another minute but time seemed so much faster. My sister and I rode the Hulk another five times. We were lucky to have fast passes which teleported us to the front of the line. As other people waited forever to ride, we hopped right on again. The Hulk was my favorite ride and I rode it on my favorite vacation. If I had to pick a song to represent this vacation, I would choose “Summer Nights” by Rascal Flatts. This song is perfect because it was our family’s summer vacation and everyone was having a great time and enjoying each other. Another memorable event in my life was Confirmation Sunday. I remember waking up early because of the excitement and getting dressed in nice clothes. My whole Confirmation class had to take part in the service. I was chosen to be an usher. I was a little nervous but I performed the job perfectly. When I finished collecting the offering, it was time to be confirmed, time to accept Jesus into my heart, and time to become a Christian. Rev. Deb called me and my family up to the altar. Everyone in my family was excited, joyful, and proud. Rev. Deb then put water onto my head and baptized me and confirmed me. I remember my family laying their hands on me and praying for me. It was an unforgettable day. A song I would choose to describe this moment would be “Awesome God” by Rich Mullins. This song is perfect because on that day, I asked Jesus into my heart, and I know he is with me in all that I do. It is because of Him that I have so many blessings in my life. He is an awesome God. Finally, a moment in my life I will always remember was when I went to Southaven, Mississippi for a baseball tournament. My team traveled six hours to get to the tournament. We all stayed at a hotel close to the baseball fields. A tough part about the tournament was the weather. Playing two or three games a day in 100 degree weather wore me out. It felt like I was on the sun. However, it did not hold me or my team back. We won all of our games to make it to the championship game. We played the River Raiders who were also undefeated. It was a battle to the death for the championship. My team jumped out to an early 3 to 0 lead. However, the River Raiders battled back and the game came down to the last inning. It was a 5 to 4 game in the bottom of the seventh. We had a one run lead but they had runners on first and second base with two outs. We were one out away from winning it all. Our pitcher threw a high fastball and the batter swung and missed. We won the tournament, and everyone went crazy! My team received a big trophy and we celebrated. Unfortunately, our celebration did not last long because we had to hop in the car for the endless drive home. A song to summarize that tournament would be “The Eye of the Tiger” by Survivor. It is appropriate because I am a competitor and hate to lose. I had to battle the weather as well as the other team to win the championship. I love to play sports and always play with intensity. I definitely have the eye of the tiger. These three events have helped me become who I am today. The family vacation has made me closer to my family and helped me love roller coasters. My confirmation helped me to become the Christian person I am today. Lastly, my baseball tournament and my team have helped make me a stronger competitor. Through all of these experiences I have had so much fun in life and have realized and appreciate how blessed and fortunate I am. The music I selected best describes me and these memorable events in my life.

One day, there was a vry adventurous man who decided to skii down the huge Mount Kyle. The man was strong and daring, and he was looking death in the eye. The weightless snow was covering the crisp, frozen ice. The man was neering the end of the mountain. He would be the only man too conquer Mount Kyle. Mount Kyle could not let that happen. Harshly, Mount Kyle became slick and the man started losing control. The sun was bright, and the man could not see because the sun magestically shined on the snow blinding the man. His skii slipped and he fell. He began tumbling down the hill and broke both of his legs. He ended up being saved and survived, but did not conquer Mount Kyle.

=== I woke up. I was in an exotic forest. I began walking, not sure what was going on. I was enjoying a calm, peaceful, rejuvenating walk. Out of nowhere, I could feel a tense, anxious sensation, and then, I was being chased by rabid animals. I was sprinting through the forest trying to escape the untamed beasts. As I finally got away, my whole body was filled with a million pounds of triumph. Once I was free, I began walking again and saw off in the distance a light, bright and free, leading out of the forest. I ran for it, but then it just led into a new section of the forest. I became overwhelmed with fear. I started to panic. I was running around looking for a different way out. I was as scared as a kid with a monster in his closet. After what seemed like I was looking for years on end, I realized I would have to survive alone and live with the rabid animals in the exotic forest. ===  media type="custom" key="7783121"
