          Today, something really unexpected happen. We were lining up for PE outside the front door. All was fine then. Then, Mr.Li came and told us we can head up stairs. We all head up stairs. Some went by the stair, others went by the school elevator and Samuel, Howard, Sean, and I went by the Kung-fu elevator by the far end. At first, the elevator only have Sean, Howard, and me but then, Samuel came. We pressed the second floor so the elevator would go down to second floor and we can push Samuel out of the elevator for fun (no intention of being mean). But when we reached second floor, the three of us aren't strong enough to push him off. Then, I pressed fifth floor because that elevator doesn't go to sixth floor. However, Sean pressed sixth and it actually worked! That's really weird because normally, it doesn't work. When it reached sixth floor, I held the door open for everyone to get out but since last year, Samuel and I have an elevator game. We are testing who can stay in the elevator longer while holding the elevator. So, I stayed in the elevator and Samuel stayed in the elevator. Then, I gave up because I am excited about volleyball. I went out and when I stepped out, the door of the elevator slowly closed. However, before it closed, I saw that the light inside the elevator turned dark. I walked away but then, I saw something unusual. Normally, it will say 6 outside the elevator but after the door closed, it said it's broken or something like that. We went in and told Mr.Li about the elevator. He told us to run our laps while he went and check what's the problem. On my fifth lap, Mr.Li came back and told me to head downstairs and inform the office people about it. I went down as fast as I can and told Ms. Sue. Ms.Pamela probably heard it so she came out and together, we went to the elevator. We went upstairs to sixth floor and since I'm done with my duty, I head back inside the basketball court and wished nothing happened to Samuel. We started playing volleyball while Samuel is stuck alone in the elevator. However, when we are ready to get started with the game, Samuel came back. Three smiley faces for Samuel.  :) :) :) . I was glad no one was hurt. However, I still wonder why the elevator went up to sixth floor now.
