The story should be made up of sentences which form a cohesive and logical sequence of events, and should be long enough to fill two or more paragraphs. Do not omit any details which were given by the summary. Make the story such that the summary is an accurate characterization of the paragraphs you write.

[EX Q]: Put in a birdbath to cure an inconsiderate neighbor from blocking my only openable window. It hurt my back to do it. I find it worked out as a good solution.
[EX A]: The bird bath turned out to be much more than something to stop my neighbor from parking where I didnt want him to. Even though it did accomplish that extremely well. I get such joy from seeing the birds in it. I laugh at my cats sitting in the window watching the birds also. I am very happy that a bad situation turned into one that brings me joy. Every time I walk by the window which is several times a day and I see birds or my cats watching the birds, I am glad that what I thought was bad thing turned into a good thing. I am also suprised at how much joy seeing those birds give me. I really never expected to have that reaction. After the birds take their bath, they jump into a little flower bush right up against my window. The dry themselves off. They fluff up. The are so cute and so close to my cats. The cats are so intriqued. The birds do not seem to care that the cats are so close. The are very lucky the screens are there. It turned out to be a good thing getting that birdbath, which I absoluley would not have done if my neighbor wasn't rude and parked on my lawn.

[EX Q]: My husband and I went on a cruise to Alaska in May of 2019. We rode on a plane for the first time in our lives. The trip was a once in a lifetime experience.
[EX A]: My husband and I went on a cruise to Alaska to celebrate our wedding anniversary and my retirement. It was the first time on a plane for both of us. I was a bit nervous as we were flying in on the day of departure so a plane delay could mean missing the trip, but I did have trip insurance. Luckily, we did not encounter any delays and we arrived in plenty of time. I had booked a transfer from the airport to the Pier, and the bus driver gave us a tour on the way. We passed the Space Needle which was awesome! Once at the Pier, we had to wait a bit to board. When we got on board, we went directly to wait in line to eat. It had been hours since we had any real food and we were not able to go to our rooms yet. We walked around a bit and then finally went to our cabin.  Our vacation was finally starting! The days were filled with food, scenery, movies, casinos, shows and some land excursions. Exploring different parts of the ship kept us very busy.  The most memorable part of the cruise was when we went into Glacier Bay - the scenery was breathtaking! We saw the glacier break apart into the water a few times, once was a large break. I took so many pictures but I couldn't fully capture the beauty and awe of the all of the moments. This trip was a once in a lifetime experience...even if I go back, I could never fully experience the magic of the first time - but it would be fun to try!

[EX Q]: I was going to go on a date with a woman but things didn't go as planned. Instead of giving up at the idea of failure I stuck with it and decided to stick with it. After all of this, we're still dating.
[EX A]:
It was a pretty cold day for the summertime, couldn't have been more than 60 degrees out when I first stepped outside of my house and towards the car. I was heading to the movies with a friend who had been begging me to go see it for days, although now I can't even fully recall which it was. There wasn't a lot of time for me to think as I was still groggy, so I quickly went back inside to grab a cup of coffee before heading out. Turning on the machine and hearing it whirr to start up I decided that I would also flick on the television real fast just to see what was going on in the world. I honestly can't remember what I saw, as my mind is blurry from the entire thing but I do remember it being quite boring to the point of remarkability, but what did stick out was the traffic alert. We were going to be late to the movie if we didn't leave soon so I quickly grabbed whatever coffee had been finished and rushed out the door having a completely black cup of joe that I didn't even want anymore. My friend was waiting for me at her house when I picked her up and was a bit annoyed that I was late, but I didn't think much of it. Now this is the part that really, really stuck out to me. Right as she got into the car, her daughter quickly ran outside and called her back in. When she came back out she was bright red and told me that she couldn't go, that she had to stay home and didn't want to explain but I was adamant and so she did. Apparently the babysitter couldn't make it in time and so it was all a bust, but instead of letting her feel bad I drove home real quick and picked up a blu-ray of a movie that I figured she would enjoy and drove back to her house. At this point you can probably realize this isn't exactly just a friend, but someone who I had wanted to impress and so when I returned and showed her the blu-ray we watched it together and it was a pretty awesome experience. The entire time all I could think was about how lucky I was to be in this house with her and her family, who seemed to be pretty receptive of me. Anyways, once this was all over instead of leaving she offered for me to stay for dinner and this is the first time I would ever have a meal with her alone as her daughter took a nap right after eating a few minutes earlier. This is so memorable for me because it was the first experience that I had in a romantic setting with this woman who I am now currently dating and I'll never forget it.
