       It was Afternoon and I was just cleaning up the table from our lunch, the tv buzzed in the corner of the room, my little sister watched quietly.
     All of the sudden she jumps up and yells, "Quiet down! The drawing for Haven Ridge camp is on!"
      I roll my eyes and continue cleaning knowing that there was no real reason for me to watch, it wasn't like I'd put my name in to get the scholarship. Even if I did, hundreds of people put there names in every year. I had no chance.
      I listen as I scrub, as the announcer rambled about the camp and the new year and some other things that blurred to the background. But once I heard my name I looked up to the tv seeing the lady say it again, "Lauren Spinner.... The winner for this years draw is Lauren Spinner!"
     "Yes!" My sister cheers. "It worked!"
     "What worked?" My mom asks her as I stay silent.
     "I... I put Lauren's name in the draw for the Haven Ridge camp scholarship..."she says.
     I finally shake myself out of the daze and turn to my sister. "You what!?"
     And that's how this all started...
