Getting Up Clsoe and Personal

OMFG!!!! I was walking this girl home with my friends Tyler and Oliver. It was nice out and we heard some thunder in the distance, it didn't seem that the weather would change quickly. We finally got to her house and said goodbye then started walking towards the school so that Tyler's mom could pick us up since it started to rain. We almost got to the school and it was raining but the lightning was still in the distance. We got to the overhang of the school and were about to go to the Junior High door, when all of a sudden, lightning came down and struck a tree right in front of us. Twigs flew everywhere and there was a huge crack as the tree came crashing down right in front of our eyes. We then ran to the door and started banging on it since the janitor was right down the hall. When we got to the door, with our luck the janitor turns down the science hall and doesn't hear us banging as hard as we could on the door. In a panic I called my dad and thankfully he had just dropped my sister off at work. We waited about a minute and he came and picked us up. Today was probably one of the freakiest and the most cool days of my life.
