Today was a very long day at school, it was the worst day ever. Well that was until I got off the bus. I walked down the stairs of the bus and flop I fell right on my face and my I popped out. I stuck my eye back into my head and I saw a small toad on the ground. It was the most ugly thing I’ve ever seen. I decided to keep it and I named it Mr Kelly or Mr Toad for short. When I named the toad I was thinking of my teacher Mr Kelly because him and the toad are both extremely ugly and they both have dry bumpy skin on their backs. So I picked up the toad and I started walking home. On my way home I walked by my neighbour Gillan. Gillan ran at me and started to lick me and Mr. toad so I took a dirty diaper and Chuck did at Gillans head and ran away as fast as I could. …show more content…
When I finally got home I went to go ask my mom if I could keep the toad. At this very moment the most amazing thing ever happened the toad asked my mom “you got any soup”. My mom screamed and threw the TV at me. I ducked just in time and I dived out the window with my backpack and Mr Toad. At that very moment I knew we weren’t wanted on this earth so I knew what we had to do or did I? I put Mr Toad on my shoulder and started to run to the old abandon NASA workstation. When we were halfway there the toad pissed on my shoulder so I had to stop in Walmart to get new sweater and T-shirt. Mr Toad and I walked into Walmart and I felt like I was forgetting something but I still continued searching for some clothes. It wasn’t until I went to purchase the clothes what I found out what I was forgetting. Gillan works at Walmart. I tried to avoid him but as soon as I stepped in the lineup he pulled out a dozen pineapples and started throwing them at me and Mr
Sammy was a girl that she was shy. She had her group of friends that she trusted and said everything. But in the school was a girl that she was mean and thinks she can judge everyone. One night Sammy was about to sleep but in a moment to another she was restless. Because she gets scar and she didn’t even know. She saw an ugly monster, she was cold she was like a cold corpse. Sammy says“ It’s nothing, go to sleep”. But she hears a voice telling her“You know that’s not true”. When she hears that, she starts shaking like a little Chihuahua.
When I learned that I would have to do my ethnographic report on what I did during Halloween, I was worried because I live in Turnpike and the most excitement that happens in turnpike is the sound of the garbage truck when it comes to pick up the Wednesday trash. Fortunately something did happen to me and I realized I would not have to write a boring paper of how I woke up and just stayed in my room the whole day. Well the day started off with me waking up and walking to the bathroom to take a shower, as soon as the turned the water on I realized I had left my shower and rather than turning off my shower I stayed in because the warmth of the hot water was too seductive for me to get out and get my towel. In the shower I had my usual thoughts about life, death, and comebacks to old arguments. Afterword I got out of my shower and reached for my toothbrush, which was located in a cupboard behind the toilet, but I grabbed at it too quickly and it fell in the toilet. I stood over my toilet for about five minutes just staring at my toothbrush in the toilet not believing what just happened, after that I started blaming myself for being too impatient. When I was done feeling sorry for myself I went into my room in search of another toothbrush but unluckily I couldn’t find one, so I had to go walk to the local store at around 7:30 in search of a toothbrush. While searching for a replacement toothbrush I realized that not that many people were in the store, I had always thought that stores were busiest in the morning and evening but apparently that’s not true. Once I got my new toothbrush I finished brushing, got dressed and went to catch the 11 to the Transit Center.
One day I was walking through the meadow, feeling very sad and lonely. I wanted a friend to spend time with. My mother sent me out to play, but I couldn't find anyone to play with. I looked everywhere until I came to a house made out of straw. I knocked on the straw door, and a little pig answered and told me to go away! I thought that was very rude of him. I told the little pig that I wanted to come inside and play. The little pig said, "Not by the hairs of my chinny chin chin!" I was so sad. Just as I was about to walk away my dumb allergies started acting up. I sneezed so hard that I blew the house down. The little pig ran away and I ran after him, trying to tell him I was sorry.
When people set goals in life, they tend to learn lessons along the way. In The Alchemist, a boy named Santiago has a goal of finding treasure near the pyramids in Egypt. On his journey, he meets people who teach him about life and ways to reach goals. Santiago learned from a merchant, an Englishman, and an alchemist. One thing that he learned that stood out to me the most was: “before a dream is realized, the Soul of the World tests everything that was learned along the way (Coelho 132).” That stood out to me because it is true, it has happened to me and it happened to Santiago.
One nice and warm summer day my father took me to a man. He calls himself Dr. Gordon. Dr. Gordon wanted me to think that I wasn't a dolphin, and this idea was insane. So I refused. I wasnt going to give up my dream, my reality, just because some person I dont know wants me to. This went on for about three years every single week, and I hated every single second of it. So I ran, I know I was 14, and I knew this wasn't appropriate for someone my age. Who knows it could just be Dr. Gordon's lies. Well anyways I ran, I didn't look back, but I saw him again. The man, and he looked at me and said "Come here", and so I
When everybody left to get cake, I had to clean up the swimming toys. Because one toy was in the middle of the deep end of the pool, I dived into the water. I picked it up and tried to swim up. My hair was stuck to the ladder! I didn’t know what to do! Running out of oxygen, I tried to yell for help.
It seemed so good and so long since I've had a cookie. My mom seemed like she was taunting me over there still making cookies and not letting me get another. I stole another and my mom didn't see me take it, I was like a ninja. I heard the doorbell ring "Doo de doo doo do de doo do. " I jumped out of my seat and went flying over to the door to see who it was.
It was the last Saturday in December of 1997. My brother, sister, and I were chasing after each other throughout the house. As we were running, our parents told us to come and sit down in the living room. They had to tell us something. So, we all went down stairs wondering what was going on. Once we all got down stairs, the three of us got onto the couch. Then, my mom said, “ Well…”
Mrs. Frog was my best friend in all the earth. We lived right next door to each other growing up. Our mothers were pregnant together, and gave birth in hospital rooms right next door to each other, one day apart.
“EWWWWWWWW!”, I recall this exact disgusted reaction from my sister as I showed her one of my videos of the Dragon’s Mouth mudpot in Yellowstone National Park. “Who would want to see that ugly thing brother?”, blurted my brother Mateo in an obvious state of sarcasm and annoyance. This was a typical reaction for a 8 year old with the attention span of an adult watching Disney’s Frozen for the 15th time to satisfy their moody princess-dressing girl.
This old/new bus continued our route, and we all sat quietly, awaiting our stops. Everyone had a tired, almost forlorn look, as though they had been through much more than just switching buses. I did not have any concept of time as the bus chugged along, stopping occasionally to let people off, and all of a sudden I recognized that it was almost to my stop. I jerked out of the stupor I was in as the bus stopped in front of my apartment complex. As I gathered up my things to leave, I looked at my friends and said, "Well, this will make one interesting story at school tomorrow!"
Mr. Guinea There are many pictures from my life that I treasure but one that is of great importance to me is of my beloved childhood pet Mr. Guinea. In the picture it displays a small calico Guinea Pig, Mr. Guinea, curled up into a ball on top of my purple comforter. The photo was taken in my old bedroom back in New Mexico a few months after I moved there. It is a simple image that has come to have a large amount of sentiment to me since this image has come represent my life in New Mexico as he was present for my entire life there.
Have you ever thought of that recipe that just keeps getting passed down and it just keeps getting better as years go by. As a latina food is probably one of the most important and richest part of my culture. If you don’t eat abuelita (grandma) will hear the growling of your stomach from blocks away and make you eat plates of her cooked food. Growing up in a Mexican culture my mother would cook everyday but eating all together as a family meant everything the room would never be silent and crowded. My aunts, uncles, grandparents, cousins and my family would all get together for our plate of mole to start the night good.
Today was the worst day of my life. My mom gave me good and bad news. The bad news was so horrible. The good news was very surprising. The bad news was so bad, that I started crying. My mom told me that I was MOVING!!!
I jumped out of the car with my two sisters and ran to the bathroom. When we left the bathroom, we walked back to the car. We saw that our dad was still putting gas in the car, so we went into the store to buy some sweets. I bought “warheads” that said extremely sour, and a bag of chips called “baked with fire” that looked like they would taste really hot. When we purchased our food, we walked back to the car. As soon as we started driving, I opened my bag of chips. I was so scared that they would be extremely hot. For that reason, I also bought a bottle of water. I opened it before I took a bite out of the chip. Luckily, they were not hot at all! I grabbed my sour candy and tasted it. My face changed so quickly; that I started to squint my eyes and point my lips. I could not take another bite of it because it was really sour! Eventually, I was not hungry anymore. Probably because I ate my whole bag of chips and a sandwich. When I finished eating, I was feeling exhausted, so I took a long nap. I woke up, and dad told me that we only needed to drive for one more hour. While we were driving through town, we saw a row of trees on fire! It was so smoky that we could barely see the street we were driving on. I felt scared for life and terrified that we might crash. After a few more minutes of driving, the smoke cleared up and we could see again. Finally, the hour passed and we arrived in California. Mrs.
