Train Tracks!

Train tracks remind me of the time my family went for a hike. We started walking around our subdivision, and then we decided to go through the woods. We hiked through the woods for a while until we came to train tracks. After we saw the train tracks we walked on them for a while. As we were walking we heard a train so we quickly jumped off the tracks to get out of the way. We stood and watched as the train passed, and then we continued our hike on the train tracks. It was really fun! We picked up cool rocks along the way as well as old nail spikes that had come out of the tracks. I normally don't like hiking, but this was fun! After we had walked for a while we saw a huge house on a hill. It looked like a castle! By the time we were done walking we had walked about 6 miles on the train tracks! My legs were so sore!

Cross Country

Cross country is finally over! Even though I had some fun times during the season, it just wasn't the best season. Our team had so many people on it that someone was always getting us in trouble. I medaled at every race that I ran except for the Jefferson R-7 meet. I missed the medal by one place! Our last meet was last Saturday at Herculaneum. I got 9th place! My favorite meet was the Potosi meet. It was really cold that day, but it's my favorite meet. It was 1.9 miles, but it goes by really fast. At Potosi I got 15th place. At our conference this year we got 3rd place. We were beat by Herculaneum and Potosi.

Off to Jail

We have just been caught. We did it for a good reason though. Our parents will be so disappointed, but it's not how it looks. We're off to jail now but our parents will bail us out, hopefully. When my parents came to help us, we knew we needed to explain why we did it. It all started when we heard that someone from our school was going to break in to steal the one of a kind, very valuable lottery ticket. We knew we had to stop them or something terrible would happen. We went to the gas station last night to see if anyone had broke in yet or if the ticket was missing. Nothing had been touched. We decided that the only way to save the lottery ticket was to break in and steal it and give it to the manager before anything happened to it. It was a good thing that we broke in when we did because as we were taken off to jail we saw the others on there was to the gas station.

1st Quarter

This quarter in technology I have learned a lot. There was a lot of stuff that I already knew, but I also learned some things. Yesterday I learned how to do formulas on a spreadsheet. This quarter I also learned a lot when we did our research project. I learned how to do different things to change the layout of the paper. I have enjoyed this quarter. The thing I liked the most about this quarter was doing the city or state project. Since I've been in this class I have been able to type a lot faster and I have a lot better understanding of computers!

My Purple Goldfish

Once upon a time, I bought a goldfish. It died two days later. It was purple. My purple goldfish was smelly. His name was Sacajawea. Sacajawea ate the other fish that were in the tank, so now I have no fish. It's pretty depressing. I just have an empty goldfish bowl. I think I'll go buy another purple goldfish after school that way the fish bowl isn't empty. I'll name my new goldfish Sacajawea II.

Have you seen any purple goldfish lately?

Sleeping Beauty Gets Eaten By Her Prince

Once upon a time there was a princess named Aurora. She lived in a house with a pink fairy and a blue fairy. One day she touched the pin on the spinning wheel and fell into a deep sleep. There was only one way for her to wake up and it was to be kissed by a prince. All she had to do was wait for the prince to wake her from her sleep. The pink and blue fairy tried to find the prince so that Aurora could wake up, however, the fairies didn't know that the prince was half werewolf. At night the prince would turn into a werewolf and during the day he would be the prince. The fairies found the prince at night and brought him to Aurora. He leaned down to kiss her so that she would wake up, but as he leaned down he turned into a werewolf. He couldn't help himself and he was so hungry that he ate Aurora.

Mrs. Debolt

Mrs. Debolt is the best technology teacher in the whole world. She teaches us so much about computers! If she wasn't the technology teacher I wouldn't have signed up to take technology this year. I am horrible with computers so it's a good thing she knows what she's doing! Mrs. Debolt is amazing. I've learned so much about computers that I didn't already know. She isn't only a great teacher, she is also a great person! She's really nice and fun to talk to! She drinks coffee almost every morning! Today she is wearing a white shirt with black diamonds on it. I am writing about how good of a teacher Mrs. Debolt is because my life is so boring and I have nothing else to write about. I love Mrs. Debolt!

Robbers

The robbers took everything. Well almost everything. They left one thing, a lamp. I'm not sure why but they obviously didn't want it. Why would they take something like toilet paper but not a lamp? I wasn't home when they broke in, but when I got there everything was torn apart or missing. I had only been gone for an hour or so but they had done a lot of damage in an hour. I went to look around my house and see what else was missing and what was still there. I didn't find anything except the lamp. "Why the lamp?" I kept asking myself.
