Hi, I`m Jennifer.
I live in New Topia. I just turned 19 last week and I work as a photographer
for NT Magazine. I take photos of celebrities but my real dream is to become a
nature photographer but to do that I need to save up a lot of money. So for now
I will stay as paparazzi.
*1 new

to Restaurante de Fancyfood because some celebrity was there. Luckily I had
just finished eating at the Carls Jr. across the street. I walked over to Restaurante
de Fancyfood when I was stopped by one of the waiters asking if I had a table. “No”
I replied. “Well you better get one before the manager comes out. Here take
this one” he said pointing to the table next to him. “Ill be back soon to get
your order” he told me. I scanned the room looking for the mystery celeb
rumoured to be there, when I saw the hottest guy I`d ever seen.
He had dark
brown hair that fell over his eyes until he flipped it off revealing his bright
blue eyes. Who is that? I ask in my head filing through any memories I had when
it hit me. He was Jake Ryan. Gorgeous young actor from the hit TV series Angels.
So he was the celebrity I would be stalking for tonight and for once I was
happy to be paparazzi. Just then the waiter comes back “What would you like?” “Ill
just have a coke” I replied. “That’s it? You need to order food if you want to
stay at this table and stare at Jake” he urged. Even though I`d just finished
eating a huge burger from Carls Jr. I decided ill order something “Fine, I’ll
have a Caesar salad.” I said back to him. Luckily my boss pays for me to eat
and take photos.
A while
later the waiter brings my coke and Caesar salad. “Here ya go” he says as he
places my food in front of me. I push my salad around with a fork as I watch
Jake. I text my boss a picture I took on my phone and ask if it’s him. She
replies yes but when I lift my head up to watch him again I see him staring
back at me and making winky faces. That’s when I notice some girl sitting next
to him. He says something to her and gets up and walks towards me. Inside I was
freaking out but on the outside I looked calm, I hope. He walks closer and
closer and then past me and to the toilets. All hope of a hot guy actually noticing
me is gone. Then I remember that my boss would love an embarrassing picture of
Jake. So I whip out my camera and think of a plan to get him back for flirting
with me from afar.
As he walks
out of the toilets I position myself so I can take a picture and run. As he
walks closer I grab my coke and chuck it over his pants so it looks like he wet
himself. I then take a picture while he looks around hoping everyone saw that I
caused it. I run out as he chases me yelling all sorts of swear words but I’m
very fast so I out run him quickly then jog over to work and show my boss the
picture. “Great Work, How did you get this?” she asks. “I have my ways” I tell
her. The next day all I see are teenage girls with the NT Magazine and my picture on the front page.
What a great story idea - I love the name 'Restaurante de Fancyfood' too :)
ReplyDeleteOne thing you need to go back and fix is the tense - your story needs to read either as it is happening in the past or is taking place now, but not both. For example: "I reply, I walk, I click" OR "I replied, I walked, I clicked" - but not a mixture of both or it makes the story confusing to read.
I like it when you write parts such as "I push my salad around with a fork as I watch Jake" - it creates a great image of what is happening and you can really imagine it.
p.s - love the profile pic :)
