The Planet beyond Pluto

Recently,
scientists discovered a
new planet in our solar system.
It’s far away from our Sun,
but “mild” and “cooler temperatures”
Wouldn’t be in a weather forecast there.
It’s a gaseous planet
like Jupiter.
It has severe
storms
on its “surface.”
They’ll study it
as long as it’s there to study.

“Hey, did you see those?” I asked Samantha.

Samantha replied, “Those are cute.”

Samantha and I were walking through the mall to find some shoes. Next thing you know, we saw some and they were cute.We went inside the store to look and try them on.

When we got in there, Samantha said,”Look, here are those shoes.”

So, I went over there to look at them. I examined them to make sure I really wanted them, an I did.

After I looked at the shoes, I asked the person uf they had any in my size.

The person replied,” I will go look.”

So, I just sat there waiting,and she came back and said,”I’m sorry, but we don’t have anymore in your size.”

Samantha and I were so mad that we couldn’t get those shoes. We went out of the store and looked at other stores that might have good shoes, that we liked.

Samantha and I ended up not finding any shoes that we really wanted. We were so mad.

You would never belive that one time I ran into a neon green lynx who gave me threewishes,but it really happened.

My first wish was to become the best football wide recever ever and to play for the Tennessee Titans.Which has beena dream of mine since I was six years old.

My second wish would be to get rich and give money to my parents,Marcia and Tim, so they don’t have to work. My parents have worked to pay bills and other things in my life. I also think they deserve a long enjoyable vacation.

My third and final wish would be to make good enough grades to get to skip a couple of grades. I want this wiSh to come true,because I am already ready to get out of high school and collage,and I am only in eighth grade.

Now that I have granted my three wishes I am very happy about running into a magic lynx, who gave me three wishes.

I am happy I made the wishes I did,because they are things I have always dreamed of doing and I don’t think I will never regret them.

The Wall

I am sitting down,
staring at the wall.
I am trying to see
something exciting.
Nothing seems to be happening.
I am getting bored.
Wait!
Never mind,
nothing happened.
Something has got to happen
sooner or later.
But nothing does.
Why did I pick the wall?

As I turn the corner of my house and peek at the driveway, excitement boils in my blood. She was beautiful. Her shiny black coat had me breathless. The big red bow that was on the hood was mocking at me. I needed the keys.
I completely turned to where I was in the corner of my front yard.
“SURPRISE!!” All of my friends and family came jumping out from the carport.
I finally had my truck. As I climbed into give it a test drive, I noticed that it was absolutely perfect.
Everyone has their favorite part of growing up. Mine is to be able to drive.
I’ve always dreamed of being able to drive myself to school, go get gas, and maybe even go to friends’ houses when I wanted to.
To be honest, having a truck would cause me to get in a lot of trouble with my parents. I would get my keys taken up at least fifty times before I would ever learn to come home in time for a straight week. Then, I would come home way past my curfew again to give them something to complain about.
Driving is basically the ceremony that turns one into a wild child. It gives teenagers freedom to be teenagers.
Everyone has their dream of being able to drive. Some are in the background of their dreams, but mine is riding up front. I’ve been waiting on that day since the first day of Junior High School. Being sixteen is my dream.

Little Obama

Last week I was elected Beta Club President. I really did not think I would win. My opponents were Taylor McKinney and Ella Hayes.

During the election, I hung up posters with Smarties and Dum-Dum pops on them. Turns out people ate all the Smarties and Dum Dum pops off my poster.

After the day was over, the afternoon announcements came on. Finally the president came up. “Your new President is … Grant Jones!” Everybody in the classroom screamed.

Now all the eighth graders, especially Katie Griffin, are calling me lillte Omama!

Chloe
While chloe is trying to write
she is so cute.
She grabs a pen and starts
to write on a magazine.
Uh-Oh she says in the cutest voice ever
and runs toward my other sister Crislan.
Chloe grabs an animal
and a book that makes noise.
She jolts across the room and sits
on our side table.
Wow, she is crazy
Awww, she sits on the table
dancing to her book.
She is so cute!

Turtles I am going to tell you some facts today about turtles.First of all they hibernate.Hibernate means to sleep through the winter.When turtles hibernate they diga hole in the ground beside a pond or lake. Second,they lay eggs.A turtles egg is soft and leathery.Baby turtles hatch after about one hundred days.Another fact that I think is intresting is that turtles are the only reptile with a shell. Turtles can also pull their head ,legs,and tail in for protection.The reasonthey can do this is because their hip and shoulder bones are inside their ribcage.There are seven different types of turtles,and all seven types of them are warm blooded.A mistake sometimes made is that turtles are classified as amphibians instead of reptiles….they are not.I hope you have enjoyed me talking to you about turtles,and have a great day.

Loving You

I love you clothes.

If it wasn’t for you

I would be naked

You keep me cool

When it’s hot,

You keep me warm

When it’s cold.

I love you

Clothes!

After Band

Today after band Joey and I where talking to each other, and while we where talking we turned by the bathroom. When we turned Danielle and three other girls where walking down the hall but not looking.

I saw them but Joey didn’t so they almost ran into each other. Joey moved out of the way though so that they wouldn’t run over him. Finally Joey and I got to Ms. Hudson’s class.

My Cat

Lazy

rolling over
chasing birds
meowing

clawing
climbing trees
then falling
chasing the dog
eating
like a cow
he’s huge
That’s my cat.

Doesnt matter anymore

So here we are again.
In this sickening,yet lovely, place.
Your eating my heart along with everyone else’s.

So I’m a heartless princess.
Stuck in a towerof Black and White.
Waiting for nothing and wasting away.

Then with my ears fully alert.
I hear a horse.
A rocker in shining armour rides up to save me.

The evil one of whome I ate my heart is slayed.
Then there’s my rocker prince.
Awaiting a response from the princess,me.

The princesscan’t speak ,though.
HER Heart ,along with her voice, are gone.
So no the princesslooks ino his eyes.

Beautiful Blue eyes.
He stands and stares.
She sits there helpless and screams.

Living heck.

Five days a week.
I go to school five days a week.
I deal with stress seven days a week.
I’m a walking trainwreck.
People try to make my decisions for me.
If I had my choice it would all be over.
No more mind games or trauma.
Just a life fullOf darkness surrounds me.
One day I will state my opinion.
The world as we know it will come crashing down.
“Why doesn’t she just conform to everyday life?”They all ask.
Because.
I’m not normal.
I never will be.
So a word of advice for the world.
Deal with it!

My opinion has changed about writing.I used to like to write.It wasn’t my favorite,but i didn’t mind it.Now i dont like writing at all.I don’t know why,but i’ve just stopped liking it.I would assume say it and someone else write it down,because it takes to long to write.I just don’t like writing.

I have always had the ability to act. Im pursuing my career in acting.

Acting is my dream job. I love attention. I have been told several times that I am a drama queen. Which is what acting is.I would take acting to another level and show everyone that there dreams can come true. I would be a great role model toward other children and not be selfish.

Comment by    Corutney 02.16.09 @ 11:48 pm

Acting has been a passion since I was very young. I would put on a show for everyone, and wasn’t shy at all.
I also sing as well, which could help me in my acting career.

My dream is to be a star on Disney Channel. and brighten up s kids face when i come on the screen.
I, a small town girl, will be the next Hannah Montana.

UNIFORMS
Everyone has their own opinion on dress codes, I know I do. Dress codes for me is a graet idea. It helps with peoples self-concious,covering up what they might suffer of at home.Although I do disagree on dress codes.

What I enjoy at my school is not having uniforms, because casual wear is a way to express yourself. From red to brown to polka dotted to stripes, these patterns all represent what and who you are expressing your relegion and culture is easy to do with no uniforms.

Uniforms. The complete opposite of expressing yourself. Uniforms make others seem to walk around and act like soliders. Having no freedom just boring and dull. It’s proven by students that teachers are stricter..when a child wears uniforms. They think they need to be treated like adults do, because uniforms casn put an effect on behavior.

Dress Codes for me are not a problem, but pull out the uniforms, and there will be an argument. Dress Codes for me are fine as they are.

New Kitten

Today Mrs. Ladd announced that she has kittens that she’s giving away! She said the first person to give her a note from their parents saying they can have one get’s first pick at a kitten. Right when my mom picked us up, I saw Mrs. Ladd going through the doorway.

I got my mom to write a note really fast saying that I could have a kitten. I picked the kitten that was pure white and has blue eyes, with one black streak between its eyes. She said I would get it Friday or Monday, so I was very happy!
