On September 18,2012  I was very excited because it was my birthday.I heard my mom calling me in excitement. I shot like a rocket to my mom.With a smile on my face I could see that she remembered my birthday. So my mom gave me a great big hug and told me they would take me wherever I wanted to go and followed by saying that I could bring along two friends.
I was at school when I spotted my two best buddies, Allen and Daniel by the lunch tables. I could smell the pancakes they were serving in the cafeteria. I told Daniel and Allen my parents were going to take me anywhere I wanted to go. I asked them where they wanted to go because obviously I was going to take them.Daniel excitedly told me “ Lets go to the BB Gun bonanza!”allen whooped “No lets go to a Dodgers game”.But Daniel did not want to go to a Dodgers game and then they got mad at each other and told me to choose! I didn't know which one to choose because I didn't want either of them to be mad at me.
, I nervously wiped sweat off from my forehead I told them “ I would think about it throughout the day.” But, they just gave me a mad face and left without a word. Throughout first and second periods I couldn’t pay attention so when I heard the word “ Brayan”  coming out of my teachers mouth, I panicked and asked “what!”, I could hear my classmates laughing behind me and then the teacher cried out, “ just pay attention!”.
Before I knew it the it was lunch time I tried to hide from my friends, but them looking for me seemed almost impossible. But, they eventually found me. They look at me angrily looked at me and with those looks I could see in their eyes they wanted an answer.But in that moment the answer came to me I decided that we wouldn’t go to the Dodgers game or go to the BB Gun Bonanza. We were just going to have a party and invite all my friends and with the looks they gave me I knew I made the right choice.So by the end of the day I told my mom the idea and she told me “ok”.So that day I invited all my friends and had a great time.

      What I learned from this experience is that when it comes to picking over your two best friends don’t take someone's side.Also I learned that asking two people for something is a mistake. You should come up with the solution with yourself.What other people can learn from this experience is that when it comes to two friends in an argument don’t pick a side! Just find a solution that helps them both.
