The Creative Girl

The was a girl named Beth who was poor. Halloween was going on she wanted a costume she was poor so she was not able to buy her Halloween costume. Once she was in school and she was with her friend. Beth said to her friend.

Beth: The Halloween costume contest is tonight. Are you entering?

Jack: No, I don't have enough money for a costume.

Beth: you don't need money you could just make a costume just like me. I am going to be a hot air balloon.

While she was walking she was having water and by mistakenly she spills the water by mistake on a girl who was rich she said.

Vicky: Hey. You got by jacket wet, Beth!

Beth: I'm sorry Vicky. I didn't mean to.

VICKY: Do you know how expensive this is?! This is a $300 designer jacket that my dad got me. What am I talking about? You're obviously too poor to know that.

Jack: Don't let her get to you. Anyways, you're saying that you're going to be a hot air balloon?

Beth: Yeah. I just need to find a ...

She stopped at it and she ran at Vicky. Vicky was throwing her lunch bag Beth ran and said

Beth: Wait! That bag…. can I have it, please? I need it for a costume I'm making for tonight's contest.

Vicky: you want my trash? You really think you're gonna win the contest with some trash made costume?

Beth: Well, my dad always says, it isn't about how much you have. it's about what you make out of what you have.

Vicky laughed and said

Vicky: sounds like something a poor person would say. Do you really want this? You can get it out of the garbage. Beth the bum

Beth took the bag out of the garage and said

Beth: Well… I got the first part of what I need. Come on let's go said to Jack.

Beth went from there. After a few she Vicky saw Beth and said

Vicky: Well, Well, Well. Isn't Beth the bum her self. What are you doing here?

Beth: oh huh. I just picked up something I needed for my costume.

Vicky: Don't tell me you shopped at the dollar store?

Beth: Well…I was able to get these balloons of a dollar that I need for 

Vicky started laughing at that moment and said

Vicky: you spent a dollar on your costume? How sad. Check out the new costume that my dad got me. It costs $200.

Beth: Wow. that's Real nice.

Vicky: anyways, I'm gonna win tonight's contest. So you may as well not waste your time. Maybe it's not late to return your balloons And get your dollar I'm sure you need it.

Suddenly Beth's dad came to his car old crappie. Beth's dad said 

Beth's dad: Hey honey.

Vicky laughed and said 

VICKY: don't tell me that's your dad's car?

Beth: yeah why?

Vicky: now it makes sense why you shop at the dollar store. I won't catch dead it that thing. check out my dad's ride it's the new roll Royce. it cost $300.000.

Beth: Wow. It's great for you Vicky.

Beth's dad came in between the conversation and said

Beth's dad: Hey honey, I found this cardboard box in the recycle bin. I thought maybe you could use it for your costume.

VICKY laughed and said

VICKY: Oh wow. That just keeps getting better!. Good luck with trying to win the contest. Beth the bum.

VICKY left and Beth's dad came and said

Beth's dad: What was that about? Is everything okay?

Beth: Yeah. Everything is great, and the box is perfect thanks, Dad.

Beth and her Dad left. She created the costume for the contest. All participants reached the contest. Vicky was talking to her friends

Vicky's friend no. 1: WOW! That's an amazing costume.

Vicky: Thanks

Vicky's friend no. 2: yeah you definitely going to win.

Vicky: with the money, I spent I better.

The Judge of the contest arrived and said

Judge Alright everyone, For the moment we've all been waiting for… The winner! Of the 10th Annual Halloween costume contest is… Beth! The hot air balloon

Beth: Thanks everyone

Vicky was shocked and said

Vicky: wait! No, I did not spend $200 only to lose to some costume made of trash! This isn't fair.

Judge: you made your costume out of trash? But how?

Beth: Well… My family doesn't have a lot of money. So I had to be a little creative. You see… I asked students to give me the Lunch bags that they were going to throw away for my sandbags. My dad found me a cardboard box. That colored on with marker to use as my basket and I bought balloons from the 99 cent Store for under a dollar.

Judge: WOW! That's incredible. How did you learn how to do all that?

Beth: Well… A wise man once told me, It isn't about how much you have, it's about what you make out of what you have.

All started clapping and Vicky said

Vicky: you know what! This is ridiculous And then Vicky left.

Then everyone started enjoying the party 

The end 

Moral- it isn't about how much you have, it's about what you make out of what you have.
