One not so nice summer day bob was walking down a street with his friends. The all of a sudden, they walk into a store. One of the friends wants to have something that is in the store, but nobody has enough money to buy it. So the friend steals it and makes Bob amd the other friends promice not to say anything about it. They all agree except Bob who is unsure of what he should do. The other friends tell him that sniches get stiches, so Bob decides to be quiet. Later that day Bob feals that he has made the wrong decision.
One day, this girl named Shelby was spending the night with a few girls from her new school. They were having a really fun time until one of them decided they wanted to sneak out and go to a concert. But Shelby's mom had said she had to be safe and never sneak out, especially since the other girl's mom said she couldn't go to the concert. Shelby then told the girls she wasn't supposed to sneak out, but the girls said it would be really fun and it would make her seem cooler. So Shelby went ahead and snuck out with the other girls. Unfortunately, they ended up getting caught, so it was really the wrong decision from the start.
When Bob went to school one day, his friends were all hiding out in the boys bathroom on the first floor. They told Bob to go with them and play hooky so they could go to Bills house while his parents were at work. Bob knew this was wrong, but he didn't want to be shunned by his friends. They all jumped out the window, but when they got to Bills house Bills parents were home for lunch, they all got caught and got a months detention. THE END

One day there were a bunch of teenage girls playing "Truth or Dare." One of the girls named Aliza was dared to break into the house across the street and scare the people in it. Aliza knew it would be wrong to break into someone's house to scare them. She didn't want to do it, but all of the other girls said if she didn't do it they'd all never speak to her again. Aliza was a pretty shy and insecure person so all of her friends never speaking to her again is a pretty tough punishment. So Aliza broke into the house across the street and was instantly arrested because the person in the house was a police officer.
One day a girl went to her friends house, and she had a pool. The girl didn't have a bathing suit, but her friend told her to jump in anyway. The girl wasn't a good swimmer but she didn't want to seem uncool, so she did it. After she jumped in she got really cold. In the morning she felt really sick. She had gotten a cold from jumping in the pool and her mom was really mad at her.
