Christmas Vacation

This Christmas I will be visiting my cousins in Laredo Texas but just for New Years and so I just cant wait  to go. Last Thursday is when I found out ” Hey Mikey we’re going to Laredo” I jumped up and down my Mom, smiling like the Mona Lisa, got to excited and stated making plans. I called my Tia, and all of us sounded anxious but we can’t help it we’re so excited. I spoke to my cousin, and she said that we were going to have a lot of fun and I got so excited and I was wishing New Years would come faster. My Tia, happy as dolphin, also started making plans, but Lizette, my athletic sister, is not so crazy about leaving. So now almost a week away from Christmas. I can picture me, smiling like the Grinch after he discovered what Christmas is all about, can’t wait. Now there’s two days left of school and then vacation time.

There’s No Santa!!!!

“Yippee” I said as I walked our of my second grade classroom for Christmas Break and i heard the normal buzz that there wasn’t a Santa, this question made me think if there really was one and as I was walking home i knelt down and said “Dear God, please let there be a Santa because if there isn’t that’s really sad” and I got up and kept walking and I remember what my Mom said “I’ll tell you the truth to any question that you have” .So I waited patiently until i went home and Then I walked into my room and put down my stuff and went into the kitchen and asked” Mom is there really a Santa?” she froze for a second and looked and said ” No  there isn’t he isn’t real ” my sister said  “Well duh of course there isn’t ” and my mom said neither was the tooth fairy and my sister ran and sobbed  ” So you mean to tell me there’s no tooth fairy” and she ran off. I walked away in disappointment went back to my room cried and got so mad I threw the decoration all over the floor.

Fright

This is something that actually  happened to four friends.

It all started when Aaron and some friends were doing the Bloody Mary in the restroom, and they thought they would see her but they didn’t so they stopped and had some fun while their vacation lasted. So they did they put whipped cream on each other as they fell asleep, they prank called, and told scary stories all night long. Then at 12 to 1 in the morning it took a twisted turn first they were watching T.V and they looked because the stairs were creaking and it seemed as if there were someone on them and so they crept up and a sudden cold sent chills up their backs. So they crept back down and waited to see if they heard it again but this time it was a knock at the door, and no one was there and the door opened and a frame flew across the room and so they all ran up to the restroom and the lights flickered three times the toilet flushed three times and the faucet turned on three times and a deep voice said “BLOODY MARY, BLOODY MARY, BLOODY MARY”  and her image appeared in the mirror and they all looked in horror and ran.

The Lost and Found Kitten

“Well hey there stranger”said Mr.Man as he saw a small little kitten come up the poor thing looked hopelessly   confused as it saw Mr. Man. He picked it up off the ground and heard a soft purr from the kitten he walked inside and told his wife Miss.Women to see what he had found and she looked and said “You know what that there kitten is the Rockwells’ down the street” and she picked the kitten up and and Mr.man grabbed the little thing and said” Well not anymore know he’s ours you know me and you”. She had nothing to do but to say OK and that’s what she said. But as night crept around the corner of Continental street she grabbed the kitten out of the box crept to the creaky door of their mobile home and left to take a picture and makes some fliers. So she did the next morning every neighbor had a flier that said” found Kitten come by 10256 Continental to pick up  the cutest little kitten”. Then Mr.Rockwell asked his neighbor if he’d seen the kitten and he said that that Mr.Man’s taken it and that he stold it. So Mr.Rockwell  walked over and clamied his kitty cat and Mr.Man yelled right back” It’s not yours anymore it’s mine see that kitten it’s Mr.Mans’ now” and he walked away. The kitten scurried out and clawed Mr.Rockwell to show that he wanted to go home and he did he got home kicked his paws up and relaxed.

Experiences

This first semester is coming to an end, and we all know how teachers run their classes and how they’re going to teach us. Well I’m pretty sure all teachers know 6-1’s behavior. Not all students act the same in every class like me in science I’m not all that there sometimes like I play around, goof off,  and talk as much as a motormouth and you know why  it’s because I sit in the back and I think the teacher can’t see me when she really can. In math I participate as  much as I can sometimes talk and mess around, but then I get it under control I do my work and try as hard as I can, and I’m an Einstein smart and ready. In writing we learn grammar and stuff like that but when we have a draft to do and Ms. Ward’s at her desk, I talk to the person next to me and look at Ms. Ward to see if she’s looking in writing I talk so much you would think a book walked up to me and told me to say everything it has inside.

Stuck On The Freeway

One night me and my mom were leaving my grandpa’s house and we got on the freeway, and we talked for a while and then POOGH! the tire popped. I got real scared and I screamed because we were in the middle lane and there was a lot of traffic.

So my mom got lucky, and they let her get to the emergency lane and we stopped with the lights flashing. As the traffic moved, the air would rock the car from side to side. We looked and waited for my dad to show up, and it took him like 20 minutes.

Finally he showed up and called a tow truck and well that took another hour with traffic.

When the guy got there, he said, “Well it looks like you were riding on the rim.”

So we looked, and we had been riding on the rim. So when he got the car hooked up on the truck, we drove away in my Dad’s van and my Dad went with the guy.

The Hiking Adventure

This Saturday my sister had a basketball game on the west side of El Paso and the land around it is a nice place to hike because it’s very hilly and adventurous. First me and my sister’s friend Brianna agreed to walk then we were walking on the track and i asked her “Do you want to climb the mountain?”

“Yes” she replied.

So we took the long way to the mountain. Instead of just walking straight to it, i grabbed a stick and whacked all the weeds in our way.  Then I stopped because something was moving in the bushes and then WHOOSH! two birds came flying right out and Brianna jumped into the air.

We got to the path to go up a small hill and we walked and stood in the middle wondering what would be on the other side, so we got to the top and looked and OH MY GOD it was a beautiful lake of of of… new houses. That didn’t fascinate us, and when we got to a mountain, we climbed it and it was as steep as the Maya’s building stairs.

When we got to the top we sat down on some flat rocks and rested for a few minutes, then got back up on our feet and walked the flat part. It seemed as if the mountain ended but it didn’t, it was just steep. So I put my foot down and walked slowly with Brianna behind me, then I started running to get it over with and guess what - I couldn’t stop! I finally stopped and waited for her to come down.

We climbed back up the same mountain to get back and, where the flat rocks were, we noticed someone made a cross, so we put it put so it could look like Mt. Cristo Rey in Sunland Then we got back down and we went back to the gym.

The Laughing Turkey

The day was November,12,1995 and old farmer Dawson went out to where he kept his turkeys and got his ax and was ready to kill and as all the turkeys looked up and saw his beefy shawdow coming and one yelled ” Don’t eat meeeeeee!” . So he left him alone then he came up to one and swung his ax and missed the turket laughed and siad ” Oh mister farmer you are so funny thinking you can kill me hahahaha gobble!”, and so he strutted away, but the farmer ran his fat turkey legs after that one turkey and all the way the turkey was chuckling and so he ran and ran amd finally had the turkey cornered and swung and ploop his head came off but so he thought he picked it up and the turkey goooooobled and the farmer let go and threw his ax and ran. So the turkey ran after the farmer and the farmer was scared to death but the turkry let go of the ax and just chased him. So the poor old farmer ran into his house and from then on never picked on the turkey again.

The Portable

It all started on a sunny Saturday morning in Santa Teresa, we left to a three on three basketball tournament for my sister and it was nice. The first thing I did when I got there was look for my friend Olivia and i found her so we just hung out watched some of the games my sister played even one was against boys and she whipped their butts. Then the day took a turn right at 2:00 i was walking to a portable with my friend and we looked inside and saw that nobody was there then all of a suden the music in the backround stopped we froze then BANG! the portable shhok and we just stood there the door started to rattle the doorknob was turning. Iran as fast I could and looked back it was still shaking then for a split second it stopped then it had seemed what ever was in there moved to the back because the door rattled opened the shut with a bang I just stood there caught in the moment. Then a little tug on my hand made me run, although no one knows what happend I still can’t figure it out till this day.

Characteristics of a friend

A good friend well has to have good qualities like trustworthiness,caring, funny, and a good personality. To me a friend doesn’t need to be someone that I fell sorry for because they don’t have friends. They have to be someone that I can talk to and depend on, or someone that can understand me that can help me with small problems,  or someone that has close to my personality and we can have fun together. Like I have a good friend his name is Sammy he is a good friend although he skates and I play basketball, we always have something fun to do like prank call, make stupid jokes but still laugh, and understand each other. Even when he says something and I say “What?” he’ll explain it to me in his own way. Sometimes he’ll say that he’s a philosopher and I’ll look at him and we’ll both laugh and look at each other. And another one of my friends is Alexis M. she has a good sense of humor, I can understand her and most of all we both have close to the same personality because we both have a good sense of humor. All my friends are good listeners funny and have a cool personality.
