***THE ROOM***

A room I was so grateful to escape from, for it was a room of torture. Just last Friday the Swim Team had a trip to St. George for a meet, it was fun and and okay trip but when we got to the hotel that we were spending the night at all went down hill. Though I was just happy that there was a bed to sleep in and some warmth that was all the good the room we stayed in possessed. First the key card hadn't been scanned properly so we sat there for ages trying to unlock our door, finally Sara got it to open and we lugged our stuff in the room. Soon as we went in the room the smell overwhelmed us. The smell of smoke and musk was horrible. Even though I had a very stuffy nose and couldn't smell very well I could still smell it a bit, it was horrible. Ours was the only room out of all the swim teams rooms that was not smoke free though it was suppose to be according to Missy. Also the floor was covered with who knows what stuck to the carpet. The blankets on the bed also had holes that looked like cigarette burns and knife stabs which was really scary. That and the fact that the door needed five locks on it made us all very scared. The worst part is that in the middle of the night I woke up and sniffed my nose and the smell overwhelmed me because my nose cleared up during the night. I was just glad that we were only there for one night or else I might of died.

your introduction and conclusion were most excellent, you had a great hook and some fabulous diction.

Wow such a dramatic ending! It sure got me thinking of how could someone let you poor girls sleep in such a room! If I was there I probably complained to everyone that would've listened. Man, you guys sure had it bad. I had a great weekend with my room smelling great and I got to sleep in and everything! Oh wait,I lied, that was the dream of a crazy person who is stuck in a room that smells awfully of smoke.

so i guess my third sentence is supposed to read: If I was there I probably WOULD HAVE complained to everyone that would've listened. Sorry for any confusion you may have had.
