Good Ideas Don't Always Turn Out to be Good By Matthieu

Good ideas don't always turn out to be good. Like the time I almost died in the snow, or the time when I broke my jaw.

One of the good ideas I thought I had was when I almost died was when I was skiing. I needed to go home because it was raining. As I was going down the mountain, I saw a place in between two trees where I could go and arrive faster than my brother and dad. I made the poor choice of going between the trees and then “noooo!”, I yelled and then my foot was stuck in the tree .“Help!” I yelled. I tried to get out and no one would stop to help me. I was feeling hopeless and the only thing I could do was cry. I felt like I was dying. I was trying to get out but all I was doing was making things worse, so I stopped. At this point, I was covered under the snow. When I thought I was dead, someone pulled me out of the snow and I realized I wasn't dead.

Another good idea I had was when I was in a summer camp. I was wanting to be like the all the other cool kids and tried to climb up on a trampoline, the type that’s in the water. When I was at the top of it, I just magically fell from it and hit my chin on the metal side. I didn’t notice that my chin was split open and that it was bleeding, but it was hurting. So I touched my chin and then I saw blood on my hand. I started to cry ,“help!”, I yelled. The counselors heard me and they sent me to the hospital. When I got to the hospital they put stitches in my chin and took an xray of my chin. They told me I broke my jaw and they wired it shut. I had to eat through a straw for a long time. That’s why I don’t really like trampolines to this day.

Now you see that those good ideas I had didn’t end up well. Next time when you think you have a good idea, think if it is actually going to end up well.
