Our Good Day by Alex Mendoza

I have had an event of which I chose to play with my older friends than my new friends. It was a bright Saturday morning when I finally had a whole day to play with my three new friends that moved from Sacramento to Santa Ana, kind of weird that all three came from the same place at the same time. we met each other at the jack In The Box restaurant right down my home street. They did not have enough money to pay for their meal, so i had to intervene and asked the cashier what they wanted; it was this time when I lost all of my allowance, $15.00 to be exact. We got enough for all of us and decided to eat at my home; this was how we met. During the morning, I had to take a shower, brush my teeth, rinse, and decide what to wear. This process has become an orthodox and life-wasting event that always takes 1 hour of my life span. Finally, I had the chance to tell my parents that I have to go outside and open the entrance door of the apartment building. My friends, two girls (Mary, Elma) and one guy (Juan), brought four bikes so we can ride the riverbed together. On the other hand, Jonathan, Fransisco, Henry and Eduard wanted to waste their allowance to rent movies and buy snacks for food. Both choices were irresistible and fun for me because Juan's idea involved physical requirements and exciting events while Jonathan's idea wanted to do something original, but yet, awesome. I had to go for watching movies and eating snacks with the guys because I am more used to sticking around with what I used to do than doing something that I have not done before, like riding the riverbed. I was 10 years old and i wanted to watch new movies and fill my stomach with food.

this sounds like you were very conflicted with this decision. but all togther your choice is based on how you feel.unfortunate for your other friends .you probabaly could have made a comprimise movies don't take very long to watch you probably could have riden your bikes then go out and watch movies later.but you sound like you regret it when you talk about how much money you wasted. you made a little grammatical errors Jack In The Box should be underlined.i don't think you need to put commas around and you don't need the space betweenbut and the comma, but yet,
