His name is Lucky. He is 10 years old, and he has been with me since I was 3 years old. I wanted to name him Lucy at the time, but I was 3, and i didn’t know that he was a boy. He is black and white and skinny. He loves the outdoors, and believe me, he brought me some gifts. Those wonderful gifts would be mice that he caught. He would walk right up to me and drops it right near my feet.

 He only comes inside when I call him. He only chooses to sleep on my bed. When I sleep over someone’s house, he will be walking back and forth meowing down the hallway looking or waiting for me.

The reason why he is so special to me is because he was my first pet. He has been there with me almost all my life. He lays on my bed when I do some homework or watch T.V. He will sit next to the window if I am looking out. He is all mine! I don’t know what I will do without him. I always talk to him when I am mad, or sad and he will never talk back, just meow back.  He is always there when I need him most. When I call him in he will be waiting there by the door for me. If anyone else calls him in he will just run the other way. He is so soft to lay on and keeps me warm in the winter when I fall asleep. He is my everything, and when he is gone, he will always stay my first pet.

He is the best first pet I could ever have. He was already litter trained when I got him and all he wants to do is play around. He is the boss in my family, when it comes to pets. I have a dog named Tucker, and my cat does not like him AT ALL. My cat will hiss and try to scratch him if my dog goes anywhere near him. My dog isn’t very smart though, and since he is 10 and a half months old, he loves to play with anything. When he sees my cat he runs right to him and my cat gets a little mad.

My cat has had some funny moments, like getting scared one morning when the alarm clock went off and hitting the wall on the side of my bed. My cat is great, and even though I might seem a little obsessed, I dont care. I love all animals. I know that no other pet can be like him, so I will love him even when he is gone.

There are so many great things I love about living here.

1. The thing I love best about living where I live is that we have four seasons. I love how we have WINTER and all the snow. It is pretty when everything is so white. Then it will get to SPRING and the temperature will be just perfect with the wind. When you get to SUMMER it gets so hot and I love swimming. Then it gets to FALL and the leaves start falling off the trees just like it is in Australia now.

 2. The thing that I think is unique about our school is the people in it. The students are all different, we all have a lot of fun hanging out with out friends. Students come and go in our school every year it makes it that much   better because you learn new things about everyone. Being around all the teachers is great too. They all have different teaching styles and it is fun to have different ways of learning.

I have three words to answer a question my teacher asked me. The question was…

What three words of advice would you give to one of the presidential candidates?

My three words are,

FIX OUR COUNTRY!!!

Picture is from here.

Technology is so powerful these days and it is getting more and more powerful as we speak. Technology is growing very quickly. The world is globally connected due to technology. It seems like technology brought our world closer together and it is a great thing to have. There are so many reasons to use technology. I think the main reason for using technology is to help us do things quicker. Technology shouldn’t just take over what you are doing though. It should be used in a way to help you in the task you are doing to make that task quicker and easier. Another reason I thing people use technology is to do different tasks in a unique way. It gets boring writing on pen and paper all the time so it is always good to mix it up with a video or something.  Technology allows you to be creative and neat. I think the technology today is great. They have things like games all the way up to things that keep you and your family safe like security systems. Technology is a safe and fun way to learn and even for those of you who don’t like it, it is all around us and it always will be since it is getting better and better. Technology is used in so many ways for different reasons. Security systems are for protection, radio is fro entertainment and the list keeps on going on. There is an endless amount of reasons why technology is used. Technology is so important today. It is great for everything and it is so easy to use. It is important for many different people because they use it in so many different ways. Technology is very important because it allows people to get there job done. It allows businesses all over the world be able to contact each other when needed. It allows protection in homes for families. It keeps things very organized and filed. Technology is something that everyone needs. It allows people to do things when they need help and it makes things a lot easier for everyone.  People rely on technology and many people will always rely on it because it is getting so powerful and needed today. It definitely shouldn’t take over the important things because those things like math and reading will always be used. Things do break and go wrong and that is why you need to know the basics. Technology sure does help today though. People all over the world should be listening because technology is a big part of the world. It will always be and it definitely is a great thing to have. It will be there to help you out just like your best friend would. Technology is used everywhere and many people use it. It is used for so many reasons and is important for so many ways.

I am telling you that everyone this year has been saying two words together, one starts with “H” and the other starts with “S.” Yeah that’s right High School. Just saying the words gets me nervous. I really can’t wait for high school but I really don’t want to go. I am scared, I guess you can say. The schools are so different, the people are so much weirder and taller, and I don’t want hours and hours of homework. There is like a 90% chance that I’ll get lost and I will probably meet so many people and most of them I probably won’t like. I just think that it will be hard and its going to take time to get use to it. What if I stay this height for the rest of my life though, then I won’t even be able to reach the bottom locker. Just Kidding!!!

The only good thing about it is that you have more freedom. That can be good and bad. The good part is you can get your  driver’s license and get your first job. You’ll probably meet new people and make new friends. That is kind of bad too. You have to know who to hang out with. You have to make the right choices. You have to think ahead and wonder if what you are doing is right. High School is like a test. Mostly because of peer pressure and the things going on. People like to take risks. Some people fail the test and some people pass it. I hope I will be able to pass it. 

I just can’t believe how fast middle school as gone though. It seems like I just got there. Now I’m going to high School. I  hope high school is great and I hope it will be a fun and great experience. The thing I don’t like is that so many people are going to different schools. One of my best friends is going away and I don’t even know what I would do with out them for a day, but high school is four years.  I know I try my best at everything I do and my goal for the next four years is to make it through high school. I know I’ll make it.  

He had a very great dream a long while back and amazingly it came true. It wasn’t easy but these are the words of Martin Luther King…

“I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia, the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit together at the table of brotherhood.”

Martin Luther King was a man who changed the world for the better. He believed that what color you were on the inside did not matter. it is what you are and who you are as a person on the inside that counts. He tried to make many people believe that. At first it didn’t work but finally his dreams came true. 

Many people wonder why we have no school on Martin Luther King Day. I think that we have the day of to celebrate his hard work and the freedom he gave us.  I think that schools around the country honor this because it did affect everyone. he showed us that everyone is unique on the inside not on the outside. He taught us that everyone is the same on the outside. So what if someone’s skin is darker than that of someone sitting next to you .  If you go across the country you no longer see an only whites sign or an only blacks sign. That is a big thing he changed in the world today.  I think that the whole  point of having no school is to show and respect the freedom he gave to colored people and show that he changed the world for the better. I think that if we would have school  on Martin Luther King Day then it would really be honored much and it doesn’t really show the peace he gave us and show the problems he solved. He changed people’s lives.  

This video shows how everything changed. The video was my primary source.

I really did not know what was the difference between a Democrat and Republican. Now, I know. A person that is a democrat has the idea of having the government help out around here and pay for many things. The would rather have the government help with health care and have the government lay down laws on certain problems. Democrats are more as a union with the  whole country. The government does a lot. On the republican side though, they would rather have things work out on their own. The states have more of an opinion on what they do. Businesses have the choice of who they want to hire and how things work. Rather than the government putting down laws to stop pollution like democrats, the republicans would have the business work the problem out themselves.

When I am older and I can register to vote I think that the party I would want to vote for is the democratic party. I think that the government should help us out more. If we were all republicans the businesses around would not stop and try to solve the pollution. I really think that the government needs to lay down laws and pay attention to the problems going on in the world. Many problems are happening in the world today and the government is not doing much. We have to pay attention. The problems need to be solved and sometimes the only way to do that is to lay down the laws.  I would be on the democratic side because I know that I need rules and that is what keeps me on track and do what I am suppose to do. When the country is more on their own with a lot of there own decisions things could fall apart. What about health care. The government should provide health care to everyone. The republicans thing that people should work and earn there health care. What if the sick person does not have health care and then can’t get medication. What if her sickness spreads. I need rules to stay organized and if I need rules many others do too. The united states, the fifty states, need rules to be civil.

This makes me think about the world. People do make mistakes and pollute the Earth and try to create all these new cool things. Meanwhile they could be hurting the Earth. This tells me that we are lucky to have an Earth that cares for us and lets us have what we need like air. People don’t really think about how lucky they are to be on Earth and be living in this thing in space. People don’t think about the things that are letting us live. They don’t think about how lucky they are to be walking and living and loving people because with out the earth we would not be able to do any of this because we would have no place to live.

 Imagine Earth without pollution:

I am the LUCKIEST video.

It was he who made my life interesting and different. He made my life colorful rather than dark, and his strictness taught me well. The person who has really impacted my life is my older brother. I know, some people would be like I hate my older brother or he is so annoying. I have to say that yes, at times he gets really annoying. There are so many times that I just really hate him and I wish that he would move out but… that won’t happen until June. Alright, so how did he really impact my life? Well, first of all, he was the first born child so he was taught to ride a bike first and drive first and graduate school first but, I think he did a lot more things with my parents  than me or my younger brother.  My parents obviously work, well my mom does right now. He is strict about what I do and he makes sure that  I do what my parents tell me.  It seems like he is always watching me. When I  am on the computer he makes sure I am not doing anything wrong or he yells at me like CRAZY when I don’t listen or I am in the shower to long. I actually think he takes longer showers than I do though. My older brother and I are ten years apart and he lost two siblings before me. He was really happy when I actually survived. My younger brother was born about 14 or 16 months after me and my parents were just kind of busy with the younger one.  My older brother was always around me when I was younger. He always walked me around or was always holding me. Now, even though he is strict he takes me places. Sometimes we go to resturaunts or we go to Six Flags or Lake Compounce. When ever I am mad he always makes these stupid jokes but I can’t help but laugh. When I hurt myself by accident like that time I walked into a pole, he was make jokes like Rudolph the black and blue nosed reindeer or he just couldn’t stop laughing which is even more annoying. He is cool though, really responsible and helps me when I need it. He always comes to talk to me and stuff, its cool. I just wish he could always stay in his good mood. I don’t know how I can live with…

His Annoince

His strictness                       

He weirdness

But then again, how wouldn’t I.  He changed me as a person for better, I think that without him I would be different in a worse way and all I can do is thank him.

Its all just Family Love.

I wonder what life would be like if all animals went to school. I mean seriously, if animals went to school they wouldn’t run into the middle of the road when a car goes by. They would know how to look both ways. If animals went to school, my dog would be a lot smarter and not bark at walls and my cat won’t be walking into them. They could also learn about respect and my cat and dog won’t be fighting anymore like every time they see each other. Then animals can talk to Mr. B. about their lives and there families and how the aren’t born to be eaten… Ruby Group knows what I am talking about.

Think about it, this dog would be smart enough not to jump over the cliff:

This dog would be smart enough to know that DOGS CAN’T FLY:

I wonder this because people complain that the deer ran into the road and now my car is ruined and people go out hunting animals. If these animals went to school they would be smart enough not to walk onto a busy street and they would be smart enough to hide from the hunters. There would be a lot more animals in the world today, even if people eat them.
