I wanted to go see Scarlet,but I decided against it. so I just went to go eat breakfast with my brothers and paula.

It was early Friday afternoon, the start of Memorial Day weekend and I almost lost my best friend. Now usually on Memorial Day weekend my family and close family friends go camping but this year the other family couldn’t go so we decided to call it off. Not having anything to do that day I decided to take my dog for a walk. My dog is a Terrier Poodle mix so she’s not very big. Her name is Pepper and she’s just your average lap dog but she’s my best friend. So i put her leash on her and asked my little sister is she wanted to go and she said no, so it was just Pepper and I. We made it two houses down before the neighbor's German Shepherd came to meet us. There was nothing to worry about though because this is a nice dog, so I thought. Before I knew what was happening the German Shepherds jaw crushed down on Peppers back and stomach, picked her up, shook her like a chew toy, and threw her. The

This book was incredible! In all truth this was the first book I have ever read cover to cover. The book, by Ron Kovic, as compared to the film, by Oliver Stone, had some impressive similarities. Both the book and the film did a great job of portraying Ron’s childhood in Massapequa, Long Island. From the little league games to playing war in the woods, leading charges and setting ambushes. This was especially well done in the movie, and exactly as I pictured them while reading the book. The time that he spent in Mexico was well defined in the book as well as in the film. While there were many similarities, what I feel is more important is to focus on the differences.

One day a girl named Jourdan had her first day of school.She finally got back together with her four best friends (they are like sisters).Their names are Kennedy,Caroline,Lauren,Caitlin.They said they are going to have a sleepover this weekend.They noticed it was only tuesday.So...3 days later the girls went to Kennedy’s lake house.2 hours later..they finally made it.

It had been an extremely long Thursday and the nice warm sun had finally disappeared behind the great big mountain tops. The sky was as orange as could be with very few clouds. We had arrived to the neat little area where we would spend the night. It was almost like a zoo, with five boys and a dog sharing a little cabin in St. Elmo that only had one bathroom and two bedrooms. We drove up to the cabin in Shel’s nice air conditioned car. We all got out one by one, Shel first, Jordan next, then Pablo, Dakota and myself. Shel approached the cabin to unlock the door while the rest of us unloaded the car and eager to let Shel’s anxious dog, Molly out. She had been barking the whole ride there. We were outside for the first time since the sun had

August 13th, 1814: It was terrible.. I woke up today with my parents screaming, yelling at me to run out of there, to not look back. So I grabbed my journal and darted out of there, but.. my parents didn’t.. there was a fire, started from the house right next to us and it spread like a wildfire, burning down everything near it. It seemed I was the only one to make it, everyone that I grew up with.. gone. Except Henry, my best friend.. he made it out too, although not in very good shape. I bought him some bread with the small amount of money I had leftover, and it seemed to help ever so slightly.

The Fourth of July in Sterling, Kansas is a time celebration, reunion, and blowing things up. Since the town will be booming with people, TNT Dairyland has to be on top of it’s game. I have been a star employee for three years. Many employees have come and gone, but I know that I am Bim Trewer’s favorite! He has recently hired a few new people, Macy, my classmate, being one of them. I am hesitant to work with her, because she is a lazy student and never on time. She goes running around with her stupid pink nails thinking everyone loves her. It will be my goal this summer to out-shine all the other employees and finally get the recognition I deserve.

Unfortunately, Bob Kolman fell in his room and injured himself. He was sent out to the ER, and he is back after treatment.

My day started with waking up at 9:30 am and making tea. I would usually make coffee, but I have a machine that makes it for me. As I made the tea, I took it upon myself to sit on the porch and watch the world. It was a limited view, mainly the

Attempting to communicate with spies my little sister had inadvertently lodged a small bead in her ear. The Fourth of July festivities were in full swing with visitors from out of town to entertain. It was left to my father and I had to take her to the nearest emergency room. As we entered the newly renovated state of the art facility, we were in awe to find a desolate waiting room void of any occupants. With no bustling crowd, the receptionist gathered our completed forms and walked us past a hallway of deserted rooms. Within minutes the doctor showed up and asked what us happened. As we began to detail the chronology of the bead, she listened and nodded accordingly, as if familiar with the circumstances. Next, the doctor pulled out the largest

Activities on this day were pretty normal. We attended a nice church service, mingled with friends, helped out around the church, and either went out to eat or headed home for a nice cooked meal. On this particular day we had went out with a few church family members to a nice restaurant and decided to go home and relax for the week ahead of us. As we came home we were in for a big surprise.

Then second weekend came around, we pulled into the driveway late Friday night. At this time there were still burgers out, so we warmed them up and ate them for supper. After we finish supper we played a couple games of cards. After that I went to bed.

Dinner was as normal as any other day. We ate food, talked about life in general

I woke up to the smell of bacon and eggs. I got up and I looked in the mirror. My hair is very messy so I grabbed my hairbrush and other things. I brushed my hair and then grabbed my water bottle. I went out into the living room. Isabella, Emma, and Sophia sat down in their little chairs. Jaden, Jake, and Lucas played with their toy trains. I sat across from mommy who had her hair in a bun. "Destiny, we have something to tell you. We did not know when was the right time to tell you. I mean you were scared and hurt, we did not want to hurt your feelings even more." Mommy said.
