When I was five I was with my grand parents and my two cousins Jemma and Julia. I asked my grand parents if we could see the pets in Pet Co. So they said yes. So we went in to Pet Co and I found the hamsters. I asked if I could get one and they said it was ok with them. But they said I had to ask my mom and dad. So they called my house. My mom picked up the phone and said hello. And my grandma said hi! So my grandma asked if I could have a hamster and she said yes. And so my grandma went to ask the lady at the desk to open the glass cage so I could hold my new hamster. The lady said he would live for three years. But instead he lived for four years. But when I had my birthday party my friend Delaney said my hamster died. I was very sad but I didn’t cry. But the night after that night I cried. I was even more sad so I couldn’t sleep that well. The next morning I was still thinking about him. Then it was Monday the real day of my 8th birthday. In class my mom came in and brought in cup cakes for my birthday. We had vanilla and chocolate cup cakes in class. We watched a movie too. I still draw pictures of him. I will never for get him. My family and I will always remember him. We will always love him.

THE FOLLOWING GHOST

Once there was this boy who was taking a late night walk. He wasn’t scared of the dark but he was scared of ghosts. So while he was in the park he got a little scared because he thought a ghost would come out and jump at him so started to walk home. Then he heard something, so he looked back and checked if anything was behind him. But there was nothing behind him. Then he heard it again, so he looked back again and he saw a ghost!



So he started to run home. He made it home safe and sound. But he still thought he wasn’t safe. He didn’t tell his parents.



A few days later he caught the ghost in a glass case so he couldn’t get out and run away. Then the next day he forgot to feed him so the ghost was really hungry. Then the next day he remembered about the ghost and he found the ghost dead. He felt bad for the ghost. Because he was just a kid like him so he didn’t get to live for a long time. THE END

What is on my mind today is…..Thanksgiving because we are having it at my house this year. We aren’t having dinner at my house, we are having dinner at my cousin’s house. We are just staying at my house for a few hours. That is my family’s routine for Thanksgiving. We have dinner at my cousin’s house every year. It takes a while for the dinner to cook. But we just play while they are cooking. Then when the dinner is done someone who wants to say some stuff of what they're thankful for we let them say it. I might say some thing but I don’t know. We will have turkey, corn, salad, and other things. Then when dinner is over some people might go home for the night.

Hi my name is Mr. Jerky and you are the person who is going to cook me for Thanksgiving. And this is how I am going to escape….. I am going take a bus to the farm. And go wild. So the farmer would let me go into the wild.



Well that was my plan but this is how it goes …..Once there was a turkey and his name was Mr. Jerky and he was a wild turkey and that is why the farmer put him in the biggest pen in the whole farm. The farmer was thinking about selling him. But he would miss his wildness.



But Mr. Jerky was a little too wild thought the farmer. But Mr. Jerky kept on messing up things. So he would have to be sold. And so the farmer did, and Mr. Jerky didn’t like his new home. So every day he would try to escape from his pen. He was the only turkey there so he was lonely. And he wanted friends. And a few months later he finally escaped from his pen and took a bus and went home and the farmer was so happy to see Mr. Jerky. And the farmer said, “I am never selling you again!" So the farmer and Mr. Jerky lived happily ever after. THE END

It was Christmas Eve last year. My cousins and I were on a horse ride and we were singing Christmas carols. After we were done with the horse ride we did other things. After we did them it was getting dark so we went home.



In a few hours we went to my grandma’s and grandpa’s house because we were spending the night like we always do for Christmas. It was late so I had to go to bed. I was excited!



Then it was morning and I went down stairs and I saw presents! I went to wake up my parents and they came out. My cousins came down and went to wake up their parents. We went to get our stockings and emptied them. The presents under the tree we could only open a few, because we had to wait for my whole family to get there. Then when they arrived we got to open the rest. They also brought presents for other people.



After we opened presents we had dinner. A few hours after dinner we left.

On Dec.16, 2006 my mom, me, and my friend Delaney were driving home from a party down by Sea Tac. The electricity went out but the traffic lights were blinking red. It was our turn to go. Then a car went zooming through and hit us and we went up on two wheels and spun around and went to the other side of the road. When we landed Delaney and I were screaming 'cause the car was steaming in the inside. We thought the car was on fire but it wasn't. We got out of the car and the front of the car was smashed up too. The windsheld the other car was smashed up too. These two nice men came over and helped us. They put us in their warm truck. They called 911 and the ambulance, fire truck, and the police came. The guys that we smashed into were drunk. They got arrested. Delaney and I were shaking for two reasons - one because we were scared, and two because we were cold. We all had our seat belts on and all of us were ok. My stomach kind of hurt. My dad and Delaney's mom and grandpa came to pick us up. My dad came from a Huskies game. We went to the hospital to get us checked out but the line was too long so we went home and went in the morning. My mom just went because her knee hurt. My uncle and cousin came to watch me in the morning. My mom came home in a half an hour. Her knee was fine and we didn't leave the day after the accident because we were scared of the road.

It was a snowy night. It was like Winter Wonder Land it was 7 inches deep. It was so pretty my dad took a picture of it and sended the picture to my cousins in Montana what the snow is like in Seattle.



The next day we went sledding with my cousins and friends. We went down a really steep and big hill. We went really fast because my dad pushed us, we kept on falling over. Delaney and I went together and slid in dog poop. It was gross.



It got late so we had to go back to my house. Every one left and went home. Then I had dinner and went to bed.



Then it was the next day. They came over again and did the same thing, except when we went to my house we had hot coco and warm milk, and watched the movie Click. It was really funny. Every one left to go home like yesterday.



The next day no body came. Just my dad and me went sledding together, but it was still really fun.

Hi I am Nicole and I want to be a softball player when I grow up because I love to play softball. It is fun and really active and it gets you moving and on your feet.



I like playing softball because you make a lot of new friends. If you keep practicing you will get better and better at it.



I watch older softball kids on TV. I watch them on TV so I can learn moves that will help me when I play a game.

He thought she would scream and say no. But there was one problem. He didn’t no what to get her.



He wanted to get her something nice like a diamond necklace and diamond earrings. But he didn’t have that kind of money. So he decided to work for the money. So he decided to work at a hotel. Maybe the fanciest one in town like the Tipton Hotel, because every Friday you get paid $1700. And that’s enough to by a diamond necklace and earrings.



So he went to the Tipton and asked for a job. He wanted to be a person who was at a desk. Called a receptionist. He is really good at that. So he went to the Tipton and asked for a job. The owner said “yes you may” then he said “you start on tomorrow”. He was so excited, he just couldn’t wait.



After that he went on a walk thinking how well it will be working there and making his valentine so happy.



After he went to the park he went to the store to get dinner. Then he went home and ate dinner.



The next day he got dressed and went to work. He got his own uniform. It was really cool. He liked it.



After work he went home he went to sleep.



Then two days later it was Friday. That means he gets his allowance. When he got it he went straight to the jewelry store and bought a pair of diamond earrings and necklace.



On Saturday it was Valentine’s Day. He went to her house and gave her the pair of earrings and the necklace.

My weekend was tiring because my mom and me gave our backyard a big clean up. When I was digging with my mom I found 10 worms so I put them somewhere else. We also found a huge slug so I put it in the park up the street from my house. We put a path way to my hot tub so when you walk your feet won’t get wet. We did this for 2 reasons, 1 because we wanted our yard to look nicer, and 2 because we are having the final 4 party at my house on the 31st.

We got to Las Vegas at 12:00 A.M. We stayed at my mom's friends house. Her name is Keri. She has four kids, a husband and two dogs named Sassy and Aspen. They are really nice. They have a pool and a jacuzzi.



The next day it was really hot. It was 90 degrees, and that's just spring. The summer can get to 104 degrees. That is really hot. It is very rare for Seattle to get that hot.



I stayed there for three days and three nights. Those days went fast. I did not want to leave. It was too fun.



On the last day, one of their daughters named Hannah took me to her friend's house. She had a waterfall and a water slide. We jumped of the water fall. We also pretended that we were Goerge of the jungle. So we used the end of a palm tree and jumped off the water fall and fell in the water. Hannah's friend had twenty dogs.



At 8:30 on Saturday night, we left for the airport. I did not want to leave.



We got to the airport and got on the plane and went home. We got to Seattle at 12:30 A.M. I was really tired.



The next day we unpacked all our stuff. I want to go back really soon.

It was hot there. It was 90 degrees. That is just spring, in winter it is 60 and in summer it is a 102. That is because it is a desert. It took me about 1 to 2 days.



My second favorite is my 24 because I wrote about that I want to be a softball player when I grow up. I picked it as my second favorite because I have played softball 2 years already. I learn by practicing and watching it on T.V. It took me about three days to do it.
