In this blog post, I have created a scene about a special moment in my life. This moment is when The Philadelphia Eagles were finally, Super Bowl LII Champions. In this blog post I hope to walk you through my experience and help you relive the best moment of my young life. It is a brisk winter night on Sunday, February 4th up in Fairfield, Connecticut. Going to school in New England, I was surrounded by nothing but Patriots fans, I have been hearing nothing but trash talk for the past two weeks. I think to myself, “once the birds win, then I will really let them have it.” The time is now 6:00 PM and my roommate and I are currently both having nervous breakdowns. Both being from the Philadelphia area and being die hard Eagles fans we could not think of a more important moment in our lives. Not to mention that all of our other friends are from Boston and are Patriots fans. The nervousness is getting to me, I am starting to feel nauseous, so I run to the bathroom and vomit in the trash can. I am now ready to go. The rest of the Philadelphia fans from our dorm (not many) pile into my roommate and I’s room, for kickoff is about to happen. Many eagles chants are being bellowed from our mouths as loud as possible. I get on my knees, say a hail mary, and then get into my chair to watch the game with my fellow Eagles fanatics. Once kickoff happens my roommate says to me , “if we win, this will go down as the best day of my entire life”, I could do nothing but agree with him. We crack open some of our Eagles Bud Light cans, and proceed to watch the game. After a stressful first half the eagles lead 21-12. Normally I would be happy with this, but in the moment, I cannot relax because I know that Tom Brady does not lose often. “Until I see that Eagles green confetti after the game, I am not gonna believe this”, I thought. Luckily around halftime is when our gameday food is arriving. I smell nothing but, chicken wings, pizza, bud light, and the possibility that I am gonna see my first Eagles Super Bowl. As soon as the second half started, I could do nothing but feel absolute panic. The Pats start to do nothing but throw Rob Gronkowski the ball. This makes me extremely nervous because within a few minutes, they have went down the field for 6 on us. I say aloud, “if we can’t stop Gronk, they are gonna run away with it”. The room agrees with me. After a hectic third quarter, I am now relieved to see that we are still in the lead 29-26. With a quick field goal in the beginning of the fourth quarter, we are now on top 32-26. As soon as I sigh with relief, Gronk catches another touchdown for the patriots, which puts them on top 33-32. I sink into my chair and scream bloody murder. After a nauseating few minutes, Foles connects with Zach Ertz for a quick TD. I jump up and yell, “Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!, go F***ing Birds!!!”. Another hectic few minutes fly by with a strip sack and the Patriots getting the ball back with seconds to go. I could not believe what I was seeing, it has come down to the last play. Tom Brady slings the ball 50 yards in the air, I hear nothing but my own heartbeat, the ball hits the ground. We pause, then all start screaming and hugging when we realize that we have one Super Bowl 52. I immediately run outside to meet up with the few other Eagles fans from around campus and enjoy our glorious victory in the rain. As seen above, I am quite anxious during the final minutes of the game.

This scene provides description and action to create a scene. I wonder how this story might be used for a My Identity blog post?
