Lunch

Lunch is the best time of day you get to talk with your friends and have some good food. The only thing better than lunch is going outside for recess it was so fum but know that I'm in middle school they don't do that anymore. That would be my one wish for school but we can't . Everyone needs fresh air but in Middle school we get like 2 minutes and we are right back inside. This is why there should be recess.

Skeleton Key


Drew Barth
Skelton Key

          How would you feel if you were purposely lied to and no way of getting out of the mess? In the book Skeleton Key by Anthony Horowitz Alex Rider is the top agent and is looking to kick back on a vacation that MI6 is paying for he does it but what he doesn’t know he’s going on a third mission and he’s only fifteen. When he figures out where he is going and what he is about to do it’s too late and he’s sent out to Cuba to fight General Alexei Sarov an evil Russian who wants to reform the Earth in his own image. He’s going to fight Alexei Sarvo all by himself and MI6 lied to him. This is why you never trust anyone whose lie to you before.

          The purpose of the story is that even in bad times you can still come back and win the battle. How I relate to Alex is I’ve been lied to before and been lead to a place I didn’t want to go. It isn’t a good feeling because you feel dumb for making that mistake. Also when Alex Rider is on a mission I wish I was him it just seems so cool. It would be bad if you had to go on one all the time. Also my grandpa died and his uncle died so as you see we have a lot of similarities. That is how I relate to Alex Rider.

          The purpose of the story is the lesson learned that when threaded and intimidated ask someone for help of guidance. If Alex Rider would have stuck with his gut and trust his instinct he would have been ok. Another lesson is treat people how you would want to be treated MI6 didn’t follow that rule at all. Alex Rider was a very good character in this story he fitted the role perfectly. He is very curios and adventuress. The best part of the book was when Alex deactivated the bomb and saved the world.       

In the end you should never trust someone who’s lied to you before. If Alex Rider hadn’t listened to MI6 then he would not have gotten out of that mess and would have been a regular fifteen year old that he wants to be.

Pie City

Authors note:This short story was a group collaboration 
Once upon a time there was a city  named Pie City. And everyone liked pie, except for one man named Fobb. Foob didn't like how he was different from everyone he just was and had to deal with it. He didn't like pie because he was allergic ]to it so he would swell up. Then his wife would have to rush him to the hospital. To get his Eppie pen but he doesn't like needles. So he refused to take the Eppie pen. Then he tried to destroy the whole pie town. He successfully destroyed the town. Everyone started to eat different foods. Like hamburgers and ketchup. Then he discovered he was allergic to that too. So he went to the hospital again. Then the Mayor got sick of this and made it back to pie town and banned Fobb from the city.

ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ

The alphabet is really weird why did they make up all these symbols for an American alphabet. If I was the creator I would have made the alphabet easier to understand and less letters. I've always wondered why they made up all these different letters it is so confusing and hard unless you've grown up with it. If someone from another country came here to learn about our alphabet they would be really bad at it. That isi why the alpabet is really weird.

Super Bowl

The Super Bowl is going to be really cool this year since the Packers are in it. If the Packers win my whole family will be psyched and will have a big party. We have a good change this year will Clay Matthews, Charles Woodson, and Aaron Rodgers we are unstoppable. I like that the Super Bowl is in Dallas this year it is very  warm and a cool stadium. I only know two people who are going to the Super Bowl they are a friend of mine parents. I wish I could go put it just costs to much money and it's just fine watching it on TV but there is no way I'm missing the game. I think the game is going to be 30-27 packer victory. The MVP of the game will either be Tramon Williams, Charles Woodson, or Clay Matthews. I didn't name Aaron Rodgers because our defense is just to good and one of them is going to have the best game of there life. All I really want is the packers go all the way and win the SUPERBOWL!!

Baseball

Baseball is a really fun sport. I love when I catch the ball and hit the ball it feels so good. Last Year I went with my baseball team to Cooperstown the place where baseball was created. That is in New York and there is a lot of tournaments there for baseball teams like mine. I had a really good time there and wish I could go there again. I can't go again because they only accept 12 year old and I'm 13 now. When I was there I was really good I pitched a whole game and batted really well. We only won three games out of eight put I still really enjoyed it. One of my wishes is that I go back there some day and watch my son play there.
