The Best Birthday Ever! -- Part II

"Todd, can you buy Jake's birthday decorations? His friends are going to come over," Mrs. Relski said. Mr. Relski groaned, but he managed to say, "Fine,Thea." "Buy it at Party City," Mrs. Relski continued.

Jake glanced at his Pokemon watch. "Oh, no! The bus is gonna come any minute now!" Jake gasped. He quickly brushed his teeth, washed his face, and grabbed his backpack. And said "Uh, oh. My invitations!" Jake got his invitation and rushed out the door just in time as the bus stopped in front of his house.

He plopped down next to Sparr Terence. Jake gave Sparr his invitation and said " Hey, Sparr. It's an invitation to my birthday party on Saturday. Can ya come?" Sparr shrugged, "Maybe, I have to ask my parents first. But, I can help you pass out the invitations in class." "That would be a great help." Jake replied. Jake handed Sparr half of the invitations for him to pass out. When the bus stopped, Jake handed out the rest of the invitations that were his half. Everyone at least said "Okay!" or "Maybe." When they got to school, Sparr haded out his half of the invitations.

Sparr and Jake did a high-five. Just then, Sebastian Derekson slapped Jake on the back and said, "Sure I'll come buddy!" Jake smiled. Luke Robin came and said, "I dunno if I can go or not, but, I sure hope so!" Andrew Cod passed by and winked with his thumb up. "That probably means yes," Jake thought. Meredith Francis and Vinnie Francis came by. They waved and left. Finally, Brice Wu and Carla Stevenson passed by. They apologized for being late. (Brice had a crush on Carla.) Jake didn't notice when Michael Evans came along. Michael gently taped Jake on his shoulder. Jake spun around surprised to find Michael there laughing hilariously. Jake teased Michael in a sqeaky voice, "Oh, I am soooo scared!" "Ha, Ha! Very funny!"Michael teased back. "I just wanted to say that I can come to your party." Michael said. Jake forced a smile. Sparr reminded Jake, "We have to go back to class now, guys."

As they headed to class, Jake thought, "I wonder what kind of decorations dad bought me. I hope I'll like it." Just then, Jake felt someone tap his shoulder. When Jake turned around, there was Ted Lawrence. Ted was pretty friendly, but, he liked to play practical jokes on people. But those joked Ted plays never does any harm. Ted was also the best basketball, kickball, baseball, and football player in third grade. Ted puts posters of basketball players in his bedroom.

Jake asked," What do you want?" Ted replied, "Nothing. Just saying hi." Brice whispered, "Let's go!" Jake nodded and said to Ted,"Catch ya later!" Brice nudged Jake and said,"I have a comic book on Spider-Man 2!" "Cool." Jake said admiringly.

After on hour of Social Studies of learning about the beginning of the universe, it was recess. "Free time!" Ted schreeched! "Lower your voice, Ted," said Mrs. Zeller, their Social Studies teacher. Ted suddenly whooped, and dashed out into the play yard.

"What was that all about?" Brice asked Carla. "I don't know?" Carla answered. "Why don't we follow him and see." Brice said. "Sure," said Carla. Brice and Carla followed by Meredith and Vinnie skipped out of class. Sparr nudged his friends. "Let's find out too." Andrew said, "I like your Bat Man t-shirt, Sparr," Sparr muttered under his breath, "I know you've trying to get out of this, Andrew." "Now let's hurry," Sparr snapped. So, everyone agreed.

The third-graders hurried outside just in time to see Ted pull a small frog out of the mud. "Eweeew!" Lots of the third graders said. Ted just grinned a foolish grin. Ted lowered his voice. "If you don't tell Mr. Thunders, I'm gonna sneak this in his desk, so when he opens it, he's gonna find out."

Jake and his friends all agreed that they would keep it a secret. When they went back to class, Ted already put the frog in Mr. Thuders' desk. Jake and his pals all held their breaths to see what would happen.

My Imaginary Adventure

Yesterday, I went to Antarctica and fed the penguins. Then , I built a jet ski out of magical ice. And I went fishing. I caught two dozen fish!

And I headed back to the freezing ice, but, I wasn't cold because I was wearing really warm clothes. As night fell, I made a fire in the chilly weather. And ate five of the fish I caught earlier. Then, I built a small but out of magical ice with a warm bed, a small lamp, a relaxing sofa, and a small desk. And I slept.

When I woke up the next morning, I rubbed my eyes and ate some toast that I made with magical ice. All of a sudden , I had a great idea! I made a comfortable sled guided by strong penguins with magical ice, I learned magical ice can be really useful.

And I went sledding and almost got thrown in the water! But luckily, I pulled the penguins back just in time. What a relief! Phew!

Soon, I ate lunch. I smoked five more fish I caught and ate it, I went sledding some more. And I bumped into a iceberg and got squished like a bug.

THE END

The Best Birthday Ever! -- Part I

One day, Jake Relski woke up at sunrise. He rubbed his eyes and looked at the clock. It read: 6:10.

It was an early January morning. Jake glanced up at his calendar. Two more days 'till his eighth birthday. Jakes' birthday is on January 18, 1999. Jake suddenly remembered that he still needed to make invations since his birthday is on a Saturday.

Jake put on a power ranger T-shirt and cutoff jeans. He searched the web on his computer and typed invations. Jake clicked on the Sponge Bob ones. He yawned sleepishly. And printed one for each of his friends.

Jake chose one that said, "Cool lookin', bud." Come to Jake's birthday on Jan. 18, 2007. 1871 Cabrillo Street, Austin, Texas 94160. That was for his friend, Brice. The one Jake for Carla said, "Party Time!" Come to Jake's birthday party on Jan. 18, 2007! 1871 Cabrillo Street Austin, Texas 94160. Jake made one that said, "Hiya! Nice hairstyle ya got there!" Come to Jake's birthday party on Jan. 18, 2007! And the address, to Michael, Jake also made one to Sebastian, Meredith, Andrew, Vinnie, and Sparr and Luke.

When his parents woke up, Jake went down-stairs for breakfast. Jake had oatmeal, bacon, and milk. Jake and his family discussed about Jakes' birthday.

Ask Bill Gates

I would want to talk to Bill Gates because I'm really interested in his humongus house. I'd ask him, "How did you become so rich? Whom did you buy your house from?" And questions and comments like that. Man, I wish I could swim in his pool and sit in his small movie theater, and read in his library. It's so cooooool. Bill Gates is the richest man in the world!!! But that's all I could think of now. Bye!

My Home

I will tell you about my home.

I live on G**** and L***** Street. I live in the % % on the 3rd floor. My room number is 308. I hear fire engines and police car's sirens all the time. If I don't hear that, well , it's still pretty noisy.

I have to admit, I like to play connect five with my dad or my mom. I beat them a lot. My dad likes to play over and over again until he wins. If I win, I run out of the door of the room and yell "I won!" If my dad loses, he always says "I didn't see." And I would prance out of the room.

My favorite parts of my home is the living room and my room (which is my desk at home). My dad likes to watch television and play ping-pang ball, and get coupons. Okay, back to talking about my desk. My desk is a shade of dark brown. It has four drawers. The left drawer on the top is my toy drawer. The one next to it is my private drawer. And the one under it is my backpack drawer. I put all the backpacks I don't use right now. And the one to its left is my roller skate and safety drawer.

That is all I can think of today. Bye!

Dear Santa Claus,

A.T

The Book Series That I Like

My favorite book series are: A-Z Mysteries, Encyclopedia Brown books, The Secrets of Droon, Bailey School Kids, The Boxcar Children and Goosebumps.

My favorite book from the A-Z Mysteries book was The Talking T-Rex. Someone stole Jud's money he raised! I didn't read all of it. I only read to number twelve, chapter four.

I didn't read all of The Bailey School Kids except so far, my favorite one was: Sea Serpents Don't Juggle Water Ballons. Melody and Lisa think Eddie's math tutor is a sea serpent!

I don't know about The Boxcar Children and Goosebumps.

Happy Reading!

P.S.- I love to read!!!

The Soldier Meets His Horse

This is a short story about a soldier who sees a horse. Once, a soldier went inside the forest and saw a horse behind a tree. Since the soldier didn't have a horse, he decided he should get one. So he talked to the horse in a soothing voice and he and the horse galloped off.

What I Would Do If Today Was My Birthday

If today was my birthday, I would like to go to the library and check out all of the books I wanted. And, I don't even have to look for them. I imagine that they would be right there waiting for me to check them out. I would also like to have wonderful meals. Also, I would......

Halloween Poem II

It's Halloween,
Beneath the gray clouds,
There's a big crowd!
And what was the crowd doing?
My, my, they are trick-or treating!
After they finish doing tricks,
They do the eating!
Tricks,
Treats,
Oh,
Whatever!
At least,
They have a hapy Halloween!

The Abby and the Twenty-six Witches ---- a Story Retold

Once upon a time, on clear full moons, twenty-six witches flew on their brooms gliding high over the village making horrible sounds. The village people wanted to see the full moon, but they couldn't, and they hid under their beds. But, on rainy full moons, the witches did not come.

One night, an old woman and her husband couldn't stand it, suffering under their beds. They went to see the Abby. The old woman told the Abby, "Can you get rid of the witches?" The Abby nodded his head and replied, "I'll try."

The Abby held a meeting of the village. He thought for a moment and asked for twenty-five of the bravest men in the village to get their white robes and keep them in a tight clay pot, and wear some rain coats on October 31st.

When October 31st came, the Abby met the men at the entrance of the mountains. They all wore black raincoats and they carried their clay pots with their robes inside. The Abby and the brave men hiked up and down mountains and hills but they finally got to the witches' cave. (Some say the Abby looked scared in the front.)

The Abby and the twenty-five men heard wicked laughter from inside the cave. Many men shivered. The Abby explained he would go in first and if he whistled once, they will put on the white robes in the clay pots. If he whistled twice, that means they run into the room and grab a witch and dance.

The Abby set his plan to work. He walked into the cave wearing his dry, white robe. One of the witches asked, "Are you a witch?" The Abby said, as he tried to sound like a witch, "Yes, I am!" Another witch asked, "how did you get here without getting wet?" "I walked between the raindrops!" he announced, "and I will make twenty-six men, including me, dance with you." He whistled once, and whistled twice, and twenty-five men ran into the room in their white robes and grabbed a witch and the Abby grabbed a witch himself.

They all danced for a while and the witches cried out, "I haven't danced in twenty-six years!" Then they had a big feast. The Abby and twenty-five men announced, "We will teach you how to dance between the raindrops," and they all grabbed a witch again and led them outside the cave. The Abby and the men let go of the witches and they began to shrink. "You tricked us!" the witches shrieked. And the witches were never heard from again.

Now on full moon nights, people can go out and enjoy the Moon.

Halloween Poem

Once I saw three ghosts sitting on posts,
Eating buttered toasts,
Dripping down their chins,
Getting sticky on their fins,
Sticky,
Sticky,
Sticky,
Sticky,
What slobs!

Silly Story

One day, while Sherlock Holmes was chasing a robber, he accidentally crashed into our classroom. He investigated and then he explained silly things about crime. Finally, my teacher made him go outside and go back to his agent office.

When Sherlock Holmes went back, his partner Dr. Watson was waiting for him. Dr. Watson said, "You have a cold, Sir." So Sherlock Holmes stayed in bed for the rest of the week!

If I Had a Million Dollars

If I had a million dollars, I could buy a lot of stuff if I wanted to, but I would save it instead.

If I wanted to buy stuff, I would take ten dollars and use it for my book fair money. If I didn't want to do that, I would go and buy ten great chapter books with twenty-seven dollars.

Or, I could buy a pair of ice-skates for ice-skating, or I could buy a detective halloween costume with thirty dollars. Or I could buy a box of legos for fifty-two bucks! Or I could buy a emerald diamond ring for my mom. And I could buy a cell phone for six thousand and fifty bucks!

That's all I could think of for now.

Crab Fishing

It was a sunday morning. I got up late but I was going to catch crabs with my mom and dad and my grandmother.

We caught for about twenty-eight crabs. Our ice box was nearly filled up! We had to catch crabs that was longer than 4 inches plus or 4 inches.

Each net, we catch nothing, or one or two right sized crabs and plenty of small crabs. Some were really yummy but we couldn't catch it. It was against the law.

(Now I have to eat dinner. Bye-bye!)

(Hi again! I finished the best meal I had in two months. I'm going back from talking about my first crab catching adventure.)

To pull up the rope attached to the net, you have to pull it up quickly. Or else the crabs inside the net will escape. When we take out some crabs from inside of the net, we have to use oven mitts because if you don't, the crabs sometimes will pinch you. I put two crabs in the ice box and it didn't pinch me! Oh yeah!

I forgot to tell you guys how you throw the net back down again. Make sure the end of the rope is tightly tied to something. And then grab both ends of your net and throw it into the water but try to make it spin a little bit. But don't throw it too far because if you do, the net won't reach the bottom and the crabs couldn't get in.

When we got back home, we planned to eat the crabs. My dad was washing the crabs. When he was about to kill one, the crab pinched him on the third finger. He got one of those tiny bandaids to put on his finger. We had a great dinner. I ate the biggest crabs. My dad ate the crab who bit him. I guess he got revenge.

Halloween

It's almost Halloween! It's just sixteen days till Halloween. I'm gonna be a detective for Halloween and my friend Lucy is gonna be a vampire.I'd go and investigate her to see if, she stole anything. Just kidding!

I would need lots of dark clothes to be a detective. Dark everything! I would also need a magnifying glass. Plus, a notebook with a pencil. Oh, yeah! I would also need a badge. I'm not gonna try to look suspicious. That's all I could think of.

Happy Halloween!
