Monkeys

Monkeys

Monkeys live at the zoo. I think that monkeys are really smart, though I would not want them to be humans. So when I go to the zoo, I love to see the monkeys. I don’t think I would like to be a monkey though. I would probably be really sad if I was a monkey. Well, that is unless all my friends were monkeys, but that is really weird. I think that being a monkey would be disguising because I would have to lick the monkeys clean. So that is pretty much all I have to say about monkeys, though they are still a great animal.

Homework

I do not like homework at all. I think that giving homework just make kids not want to do the homework at all. When I just thinking about homework give me a headache. It is sometimes annoying when you think that the teacher will not give you any homework and then she does. I really do not like it at all. That is all I really have to say about homework , because I hate talking about it even now.

Street Wise

The story Streetwise was very inspiring. It told about a man who was kicked out onto the streets. I now know how hard it is to be a homless person. You go through struggles every single day. You don't know what you are going to eat, where to sleep or if you will make it through the night. I think that Streetwise is a very good short story.

It was a cold night and there were fights all night long. Living on the streets was never what I wanted, I'm not like other homless people. I came from a family, born and grew up in a home. when I was little I was afraid of homless people, until I become one. My life will never be the same, now that I've spent long nights on the streets, living in a box, never knowing whos near,or if you'll even make it throught the night. Some people over look homless people, there not that differant, they just need help.

Weekend

Today I am going to write about my weekend. This weekend I am going to go shopping with my Mom. That is what I really like to do. I also might go out to eat with my family. That would be nice. Hopefully this weekend I won't have a lot of homework. I already know I have a little math,spanish, and band. Though, that is really it. O.K., that is all i have to say.

Dreams

Dreams
During the night I sometimes have very weird dreams. I have no idea why I have these dreams, they just come. I don’t even have weird thoughts during the night to get the weird dreams. Some of my dreams are weird; others are so realistic. My room is very big so when I wake up from a dream I feel like I am still in one because it is a dark place. Once I had a dream a porcupine was eating me. I was at my aunt’s house and it was very weird. Turns out it was just my dog nibbling on my fingers. I have very weird dreams, but I guess you just have to live with them.

Wilderness 2

So this weekend I went to the Wilderness. The waterparks were so fun to play at. I went with my cousins and we got our own room, with a kitchen, a bathroom and three beds. My aunts, uncles, mom and dad, came too. I really liked the wave pool. The waves were really tall and I got pulled under a couple of times, but otherwise it was really fun. I wish that we could have stayed longer. We might also go back during the summer with everyone again. That would be very cool. We would stay for about a week, and we would enjoy our time. Being back in my own bed, and own house is great, but having a fun time with my cousins is even better. My favorite ride at the Wilderness was probably Fantastic Voyage. It was dark yet very cool. I also loved the body slides.
When I woke up today, on Monday it was so wierd. I still thought we were in the hotel room until I saw my alarm reading 5:50. I silently prayed this was all a dream, and fell back to sleep, but yet again I woke up to the annoying sound of my alarm at 5:55. I silently got up, and went on the bus. Though the vacation is now over, and we won't be going back soon I will still remember the wonderful time my cousins and I had at the Wilderness.
