April 17, 2013: Carrots and Ghosts

Jerry was very bright and full of jokes. He was 11 and in the 5th grade. He brought his lunch everyday because he loved fresh vegetables and couldn't stand the cafeterias food. So everyday Jerry brought himself a nice variety of vegetables. His favorite was carrots, the small kind that you can just eat in one bite. Well that day Jerry was in a hurry to eat his lunch so he could go top recess earlier. So he stuffed his face full of food and saved the carrots for last because those were his favorite, like i mentioned before. Jerry starts stuffing the carrots in his mouth, suddenly he starts to choke. He stayed calm and tried to handle the situation himself but people started to notice that he was turning blue and purple. Jerry could tell that he was about to pass out. Teachers rushed over and started doing everything they knew to help Jerry. But it was too late when the ambulance arrived. Jerry had choked on his favorite food just to get to recess early. Every student and friend of Jerry's that saw that happen, will be forever haunted by Jerry, especially when they have carrots for dinner.
