Part 1, "The Body" by Stephen King

The first thing that happens on this scene is Chris arriving by car where he planed to met Gordie, who was already there. With his eyes sparkling Chris asks if Gordie wants to see something. When his friend says yes, he point to a alley indicating they should go that way, so nobody could see them. Gordie runs after him in which he observes to be a strange alley since the walls weren't running parallel to each other, what made the space narrowed as it went back.

There was a lot of trash cans and the smell was horrible. The narrator however forgot about the smell quickly since Chris get a .45 out of his back. At first Gordie gets really scared and talk about some of Chris's family problems, such as the drinking problem of his father and his brother, but after Chris tells him that the gun is not loaded he finally grab the gun and point to a trashcan and pulled the trigger. The gun although was loaded, so Gordie had just fired off one of the shells. He is picked by surprise and Chris stars laughing. A woman from one of the buildings get out side to see what was happening and the two boys start to run so she won't see them.

Who am I?

Hi there! My name is Giovana and I'm currently living in Coral Springs, Florida even though I was born in Brazil. This week it will have been one month far away from home and it seems like a long time but it pass really quickly.
I'm living a totally new life here, I have to get use to a different language, different classes, friends and deal with my home sickness. This may look really hard, but it isn't! I'm enjoying every minute of it, experiencing not only english, but also italian, spanish, french and sometimes even chines, who would have said?
Of course i miss my old life, but I know I will come back soon and that this exchange program will be over so so so quickly, the only thing I must do is have fun.
 I have 17 years old, I used to live in São Paulo and I really like listening to music, trying to learn how to play the guitar, even though I never get it right, and going out with my friends, the old and the new ones.
I'm a positive girl, I try to see the bright side in every thing, and this may cause me some problems some times but I haven't changed because of that. I think that if you don't believe in yourself nobody else will.
I'm excited with this blog, I always thought that writing was a great way to deal with your thoughts and feelings, especially when you living different experiences.
Well, that's it for today, hope you all enjoy reading my blog :)
