Sentence(s) you wish to explode: A guy started the race with a gun and I started running. It was a long course. I was tired. Then, I saw the finish line and ran as fast as I could to cross it.

Exploded Moment: 

The finish line was in sight. My feet were aching, lungs gasping for air, and my side ache was arising again, but I wasn’t going to let that stop me from pumping my arms faster and quickening my pace. All I could think about was finishing. My teammates in the stands were shouting and cheering. “Go! You’re almost there!” A battle ensued between my mind and body. I wanted to go faster, but my body wasn’t allowing me to. Exerting every last ounce of energy, I finally triumphed across the finish line.

Sentence(s) you wish to explode:  My friends, family, and I went on a trip to Florida during spring break. It was a road trip, and I was excited. We were going to stay there for three days.

Exploded Moment: 

My friends, family, and I went on a trip to Florida, and I could hardly wait to get there. I was bouncing up and down on my seat, and peering out the window, when my sister asked, for what seemed like the ten millionth time, “When are we going to get there?” My dad sighed, and glanced at the GPS.

“One and a half hours.”

“But we’ve been driving forever!” all the kids protested at once.

“It’s a long drive, you have to be patient.” My sister and my friends didn’t look happy, but they went back to talking. I didn’t, instead I leaned towards the window, not being able to stop thinking, how much longer? Suddenly, I saw it. The state border sign, with bright, bold letters that read Welcome to Florida, and in smaller letters underneath, The Sunshine State. The second I pointed it out, everyone started yelling and squealing. The rest of the drive went by in a flash, and soon, we were staring up at the tall hotel towering before us. My dad checked us in, and we went up to our room. “Remember,” he said. “We’re only staying for three days, so enjoy your time here.”
