It was lonely at 7-11 without Chocolate, "I miss him so much!", Granola bar said tearfully. 3 days had passed since he had died. It was raining outside and there hadn't been any customers all day. At closing time I, granola bar had to escape. I climbed down the shelf and ran towards the door. It would not open, "GREAT!". I looked around for anything useful, That is when I saw it, a tall mop just standing there. I ran to it, got it, and ran back to the door. I climbed it to reach the lock. turned it and the door swung open. I slid down the mop and ran outside into the rain, and what I saw next was just horrifying.</div>

I am on the ground, in a small puddle.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I turn into water vapor and<br />
into white fluffy clouds,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but when there is too much of me</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I pour out wet moist rain.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Boom, lightning slaps the ground</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
with a thunderous roar.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I am back on the ground,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
waiting for the cycle to happen again.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; text-align: justify;">On a recent family road trip to St. Augustine Florida,
I learned that singer and songwriter Ray Charles went to the Florida School for
the Deaf and Blind. He was one of the first students to attend the school and
definitely the most famous. Not only was he influential in Florida. He had an
important effect in the field of music worldwide!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";">The start of his life was not easy. Ray, an African
American, was born in the beginning of a big depression on September, 23, 1930
in Albany, Georgia but he was raised in Florida since he was an infant. He came
from a poor family. His father was a mechanic and his mother worked as a
sharecropper. Times were tough. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";">Ray Charles was not born blind. In fact, it took him
almost seven years for him to go blind. He had seven years to see the joy and
sadness of the world. As a seven year old child, in searching for light, he
stared at the sun continuously, thereby eliminating all the chances of the
modern-day miracle, cornea transplants - a miracle of surgery that was unheard
of in 1937. He had an eye disease called Glaucoma. That is what made him blind.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";">Ray began playing the piano before the age of five. He
was a pianist, songwriter and composer and his career was long and very
successful. A movie about his life was made starring Jamie Foxx in 2004. He won
an Oscar for playing Ray Charles. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";">Ray was a humanitarian and helped support Dr. Martin
Luther King and the Civil Rights Movement. He supported schools for the blind
and formed a foundation called the Ray Charles Robinson foundation for the
blind and donated $1,000,000 of his own money to the foundation!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";">Ray Charles is best known for songs “Georgia on My
Mind”, “I got a Woman” and “Hit the Road Jack”. He was known for combining
different styles of music like jazz, gospel and soul. He was given a star on
Hollywood’s walk of fame along other musicians and other people from the
entertainment industry. His name is in just about every hall of fame that has
anything to do with music. Ray often said, “I was born with music inside me.
That’s the only explanation I know.” Ray Charles died on June 10, 2004.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
There was once a shop in St. Augustine,<br />
It sold hats and other cheerful nicknacks.<br />
It had a soft and pleasant doorbell ring<br />
that could almost make you sing. It smelled<br />
like a fresh Summer morning. Something happy<br />
happened there every day so it was never boring. <br />
Life was never the same if you worked at<br />

Chapter One</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;">The Gift</span></div>
<br />
Sam Solons had a "Gift", he shared it with everyone he knew. The gift was that he could always come up with a theory for all the strange things that happen. Such as ghost sittings,mysterios ship wrecks and more. "The best part of those theories is that they were always right! Even though he shared his gift people still asked a lot from him, he got tired of it he tried to make people forget about his gift. It did not work so he summoned a spirit. The spirit had the power to erase a someones mind<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Chapter Two</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;">The spirit </span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sam did not tell anyone that he wanted to summon the spirit, people would not let him do so. On the day before his birthday he snook off into his basement (he was turning 11). He knew how to summon the spirit for years but he never felt like he had to do it. The night he summons the spirit. He was a large beast wearing a potato sack. It moaned loudly. Keep it down the,"the boy whispered. But the spirit only got louder. QUIET!" Sam Yelled. Then the spirit got so quiet that Sam could finally talk.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Chapter Three</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;">The Deal </span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I want you to erase everyones memory of me having a gift," Sam said. Why?" the spirit moaned. Because I am sick and tired people constantly asking me to there dirty work," Sam responded. The spirit moaned loudly, soon, in the blink of an eye everyone forgot about the boys power. But as soon as the spell casted he took it back! I want something to," the spirit muttered, with anger. Fine, you get to stay in this basement,"Sam said. Okay," the spirit muttered. Then just like that, they had a deal.</div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Chapter Four</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;">The Ghost party</span></div>
<br />
On Sam's birthday nobody asked him anything, they just acted like he was a normal human, which meant, the spirits spell worked! Sam went down into the basement to see the spirit and also thank him. But there were ghost everywhere, and they were all partying. I went up to the spirit, what is all this?" Sam asked. JOIN THE PARTY!" the spirit yelled. AHH!" Sam yelled. "NO, stop now! Everything went silent. The spirit growled" THIS IS MY HOUSE, YOU GAVE TO ME, THIS IS MY HOUSE, SO I GET TO DO WANT"! But this is my house, I am only letting you stay in the basement as long as you keep it down,"Sam said. Fine," the ghost muttered, and just like that all the ghost started cleaning up. I walked upstairs, Sam was so happy he was finally left alone, he did not know how he did or where he learned to do it but he just did not care. He missed his power, it made him feel, special.<br />
<br />

<span style="font-size: x-large;">Sam's</span> <span style="font-size: x-large;">Secret reviled </span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"The next day was Sam's birthday party", he spent the day at home with six of his friends. The played games like tag, capture the flag, and others. He went down to check on the spirit 3 or 4 times. When it was time to open presents he picked his friend Jacobs present first, he hadn't been in the room for it but Sam opened it anyway. There was a not behind the first layer of wrapping paper, Sam red it:</div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Dear sam,</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I cannot believe you tried to erase my mind, I cannot believe you thought I would be stupid enough to not notice, but I did, and I am not happy. If you had been smart enough to not notice this would not be happening to you."But still, it is your birthday, so here is a little something to keep you going.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"> Sincerely,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"> </span><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Jacob</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: inherit;">Sam put the note down and kept unwrapping the paper, the gift was a small Lego city set. Sam freaked out and ran outside, Sam ran to Jacob and asked," how did you know about the spirit? Why? Are you friends?" he asked. NO!"Sam responded, angrily. But unfortunately the spirit heard me, and he was not happy about it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"> </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">Chapter Six</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"> </span><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: x-large;">Trapped</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"> Sam then saw him and ran after him, YOU RIUNED EVERYTHING!" Sam yelled as he kept running. He stopped in the basement. Jacob and my other friends, PapPap and Lucy. Lucy grabbed me and pined me down. What on Earth are you guys doing?" Sam asked. Jacob told us you once had a gift, and that you used that "stupid" ghost to make us forget, because you were to lazy to help everyone!" PapPap shouted. SHUT UP!" Sam yelled. Sam shoved Lucy off of me, she the got back up and ran out of the basement. Well I guess it is just you and me," Jacob said. But when Lucy closed the door, she locked it, and Sam was pretty sure she did not tell anyone that they were down there. Sam sighed, while Jacob was trying to stupidly bust open the door. PapPap starting sobbing because we were trapped. "Sam looked at the spirit and apologized". I am sorry, I know you really hate me, I should have never done this," Sam said." The spirit groaned. PapPap's sobbing turned into crying. PapPap asked anyone if they had a cell phone. They all answered, no. The spirit magically opened the door. PapPap stopped crying and ran out."Jacob groaned, and ran out. But still Sam did not know why he was so mad.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"> Chapter Seven</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"> <span style="font-size: x-large;"> Farewell </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"> Sam walked out and went outside. The spirit was on the front lawn. Sam walked to him. I want you to leave," Sam said. Why?" The spirit asked. If I left everyone will remember your gift. I know," Sam sighed. Jacob ran to the front lawn. So this is that little spirit of yours. MY NAME IS WILLIAM, BANKED," the spirit yelled. Oh I did not know that," Sam said. Well, goodbye, then," Sam said. The spirit then flew off into the distance. Well, to bad," Jacob said. I know he is gone, but I know I will see him someday soon. Wel,l until then you have, me," Jacob said. Yeah, I guess," Sam sighed.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: x-large;"> "A</span>re we there yet?" I asked,". No. Not yet, my mamma responded,". We are still driving, but we will be in Augusta soon. Oh mamma you always say that but we are still driving. Be patient we will be there in an hour Lu. I watched as the sun turned golden brown and the trees started forming their own shadows, there was a reason we were going to Georgia, we had sold our apartment in Virginia because we could not afford the rent, so we were renting a new townhouse in Augusta. We soon stopped at a small townhouse village called Tree Side Point, a mile away from a forest. We got down and entered the house, it was a small two story house with two bedrooms, one bathroom and a small living room and kitchen. I knew this was my new life. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I went for a hike in the woods to see what I could find. But I got lost. I started to get worried I did not see any people or buildings. I grabbed my phone and called my mamma. "Hello?" she said over the phone. Its me Lu, I said,". Oh how is the woods? she asked,". Bad, I am lost. "Oh my, okay I will see what I can do, she said,". Okay bye, I whimpered,". I sat on a mosey log and gazed at the stars twinkling over me, but my peaceful moment was interrupted by a rustle in the bushes. I got up to see what was causing the noise and it was a deer. I tried to get close to pet it. Hey! the deer yelled,". Don't go touching me, It continued. Y-you can talk, I whimpered,". Yeah sure, whatever you think! it yelled,". Okay, what is your name? I asked,". M-my name? I do not have a name. What? I asked,". Why not? I never felt like I needed one, he said,". But you can call me your friend. Suddenly I knew the way home. I thanked him for letting me be his friend and ran home and went to bed.</div>

When I woke up I got dressed and ran as fast as I could to the woods and when I got there I shouted...FRIEND! I waited and then the ground started to shake and the trees made a clear path and at the end was a huge . Uh oh. The trees moved aside making a clear path. I followed the path and found myself at an opening. And in the middle was a huge tree and built inside the tree was a house right inside the stump. I nocked on the door and it opened by itself and inside there was a deer drinking coffee. Uh hi, I said,". Oh you came, it said,". Friend? I asked. Welcome back, he said,". I have a secret to share with you, I can ship-shaft into any animal I want. Wow, so any animal? I asked,".Yep. Sit down young traveler, He said while pointing at a wooden chair.

Oh yeah, infact I am starting a new school tomorrow, I yelled,". What grade are you in. 5th I responded,". Huh. You; never mind, He soon whispered,". No! I shouted,". No, what? my friend asked,".

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The next day on my first day of a new school I got onto the bus and sat alone. I started to get nerves but then a kid came up to me and said... Hello I am "Otis Lorenz". "Hello", I responded," Want to hang out today?" he asked. "Sure" I responded. At lunch we sat together. At dismal, when I saw my mamma I ran to her but I saw Otis' dad. He asked me if I wanted to come over for dinner tonight and I said yes. That night I went to his house, a small town house just like mine. I ate fish with salad. Then I checked out Otis' room. It was small It had a one person bed a desk with a really old computer on it and an empty fish tank. we killed some time by playing cards building with legos and playing games on the computer. when. Otis and I were doing homework. Otis' dad came and helped us. When we were done I said bye to Otis and his dad. When we got in the car I tried to tell my mamma about my friend but I didn't. I was afraid she would not believe. I wanted this to be my secret.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The next morning I went to the forest I fallowed the path to Friends house. On the way thought of shorter some better names for him. I heard birds singing wolves howling and a strange rumble. When I got there I saw lumber jacks cutting down the tree. I went In through the back door. Friend was sitting on a log in the the shape of a mouse. "What's going on? I asked,". Well these fools came to get me. WHY? because I have a terrible secret, He shouted,". Come with me. He pulled a wooden lever on the wall and a little bunker was underneath the floor, we went inside it. stay with me, said friend,". Okay I said as I looked around the strange room. It was full of dusty old books an old old telescope and a coffee machine. What Is this place I asked friend as he poured me some coffee. It is my old lab. You see years ago I was just a normal deer until I was caught by a scientist group they turned me into a shape shifter and I had to end all the worlds problems. I said yes but instead they used me to build a lab for their studies. I then escaped from their clutches but they found me, And now thew won't leave me alone until I agree to build their science land. "Well why won't you help them?" I asked. "They need that lab built over the woods, my home." he replied.</div>

<span style="font-size: x-large;">Otis' secret</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I laid on my bed with my head swirling with fear and excitement. I tried to forget about my friend but I could not help myself. I ran to the woods, when I got there Otis was inside, and my friend was on the floor, knocked out. Otis! I yelled,". What have you done? I asked,". What! this freak of nature needs to be sent to Nasa! he yelled,". They must know how this creature can talk. No! I shouted,". I shoved him down on the hard wood floor. Stop this Otis! I yelled,". I cannot believe you knocked him out" I whimpered. Tears rolled down my cheeks like a quiet shiny water fall. Otis got up and he patted the dust that was on the floor of his coat. Well, it looks like you are really hating me right now, Otis yelled,". I looked at him angrily, yeah, maybe, I whimpered,". Well it is time to tell you," Otis said. Tell me what?," I asked. "Nothing"," He responded. "I grunted and got up". Tell me," I yelled, with anger. Ok, ok, we-well I, ya see I, I have lived here for 5 years over those time I have studied this animal and I found out how it could talk! How?," I asked. none of your business," he responded. Then without a warning he knocked me out with a wooden chair.</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When I woke up I sat on on the chair with my friend, please wake up," I whimpered. But he stayed silent. I held him tight and whispered "I cannot believe you were my only real friend." My nose bled and I had a black eye. Well if you ever wake up I just wanted you to know this, I have never had a friend like you, never. As tears dropped down my cheeks me and my nice, loving, unnamed friend sat there. No one to talk to no one to play with. I was, alone.</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I put my friend down on the soft leaves outside and walked home. When I got to school the next day I told Otis that he did not know what true friendship meant. But he said that I needed to understand that he was better because does not care that he knocked my friend down. I told him he needed to learn that nature animals mattered. He told me that MY FRIEND did not even have a name and that was weird. HE WAS NOT WIERD AND YOU BETTER TAKE THAT BACK!," I yelled. That caught everyones attention,FIGHT,FIGHT,FIGHT! ,"They all shouted, at once. But my principle cut through the crowd, He said he had never had such bad behavior and sent us both to detention. My mamma picked me up an hour after school because she had too much work to do. Detention felt like it was 2 hours long but it was only 55 minutes, Otis and I could not talk so we just sat there watching the clock. My mamma said that I needed a punishment for fighting in school so I wasn't allowed to leave the house for a week unless it was for school. That week past by fast, all I really did was go to school and do homework and I missed my old home back in Virginia. My mamma said she needed me to talk to Otis and apologize. I told her all about my friend and what Otis had done and that I needed to go down to the woods so I can see if he was okay. She did not believe me, obviously. Otis still "hated" me.</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It was Monday and my punishment was over, so I went down to the woods. My friend was still on the Fall leaves (he was still knocked out). Inside the hose there was a "note" on the table that I hadn't noticed before. I picked it up an red: </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i>1937 already, wow it is almost time. I cannot believe there are only 2 years left till it "happens". I know we have been waiting for this for 8 years for this. I know we have been very patient, and soon all of us will soon be free. </i></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;">The Dog</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
My mind was swirling with questions. Who was stilton? What was he waiting for? Right at that moment a dog walked into the house and it looked mad. I looked at its pitch black eyes, it looked at me growling snarling. I backed up a little. The dog grabbed the note and without a waring he ran out. I walked out to and right next to my friend was a deer and a raccoon! The raccoon looked at me and said," you killed him, you killed Stilton! "He is dead?" I asked. Yes, and he wouldn't be if it wasn't for YOU! the dog."" Do you guys have names?" I asked,". "Yes", the deer ," responded. I am Joanne, the dogs name is Carl and the raccoons name is Jerry. Cool Joanne, Carl, and Jerry. Without a warning Joanne knocked me down with his antlers, but I got up and ran down to the basement of my friends house. I picked up some lighter fluid and a blow torch, I poured the lighter fluid on the floor and turned on the blow torch with all the animals together, Was going to burn them! But I did not. I put down the blow torch a wiped up all the fluid. I can't do this," I said, and walked off </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Burnt to the ground</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The next day I woke up to the sound of alarms blaring. I got dressed and went outside. It smelled odd, like a fire crackling on a cool winters night. But it smelled even stronger then that, and smoke was bursting from the ground! I ran toward the smoke, and there it was a "huge fire" that was spreading across the forest. Firemen rushed through the large crowd trying to prevent the fire from spreading onto the village. I walked to a tall man and asked," What caused this? I dunno, they are still trying to find out, He said with shock,". I did not cause this," I thought I ran to everyone and asked what had happened but no one knew. Some people looked scared others looked puzzled. What was only 30 minutes seemed like hours. As the flames died down I looked at the ash, all the levels burnt, the ground covered in ash. Soon the flames were gone, I noticed my mamma was standing in the middle of the crowd, I ran to her. Wow, she said,". I have never seen that big of a fire, hmm wonder what caused it. You don't know either? I asked,". Its hard to tell sometimes, she responded,". Yeah, I said as I ran into the woods. Lu, "NO, WAIT!" my mamma yelled. I ran through the ash, and I got my shoes super dirty. I soon reached the middle of the forest where my friends house was. There was no one there. Everything had burned.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The 3 animals were next to the house. "Okay, what happened, I know you know," I asked. Sorry we know nothing," Jerry said, Go home. Each day seemed like a week. At school nothing had changed, it felt like ever since I came here I had done nothing but go to the woods, but now, its gone. I was getting board, I lost both of my friends, one hates me and the other "died" Otis hates me because he thinks I am an animal because I spent so much time with my friend. But other than that everything was back to normal.</div>

Chapter Fourteen<span style="font-size: x-large;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Recreated</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
People started building houses over the ruins of the woods that is what they had been planing since I got here two weeks ago but they did not want to harm the forest. I went to the ruins of the woods to burry a time capsule. As I dug in the spot where my friends house was I hit something! It was a small shoe box inside was a letter, it said:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">If you found this you must be digging in my property owned by Stilton H. William You must also know that I live in a huge tree. I know you might be wondering why I am living out here, well that is none of your business. You have discovered my home so you should be proud. Do not show anyone this letter. The only reason I wrote it was because I needed to keep people away, goodbye.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"> Sincerely,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"> Stilton.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">p.s. put this back in the shoe box.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">After I read it I put it back in the box like it said, but as soon as I put it in everything started changing, the trees started growing back, the houses that were being built disappeared, I blinked and when I opened my eyes I was on my friends front lawn. I knocked on the door and my friend opened, his tree was still there to. My friend opened. Hello, he said,". Hi, I said,". My friend gave me some tea and cookies and insist that I sat down, he still remembered me and I still remembered him. "Do you know what caused the fire? I asked,". It was me, he responded,". I tried to finish my project that my other friends were waiting for. "But I thought you were dead, so did your other friends." No, I am healthy and breathing. It exploded and started a fire, it killed me but thanks to you I am still alive. But how did I bring you back to life? I asked,". I put a spell on that note and box, it was supposed to make it so that time changes in the way that you would want it to be, I was hopping a kind generous person like you would find it. "But what now?" I asked,". You do what you want, He said,". But that wasn't true I could not do what I want, but I still knew that my time in Georgia was gong to be great!</span></div>

risked his life to go running into the to twin towers on 9/11 to go save the
hundreds of people trapped in the buildings. </div>

9/11 was a day to
remember. It started out as a normal day in New York. Cars were zooming on the
roads people headed to work and school and the streets were filled with
traffic. But out of nowhere a large American Airlines plane comes flying by
really close to the ground headed for the Twin Towers. The entire city was
confused and scared when the plane hit one of the towers. The confused city
turned to a panic. Fire engines raced across the streets when another plane hit
the second tower. </div>

Rafael Hernandez
was visiting New York for vacation. When he heard the Twin towers were under
attack he had to go help. He showed the American fire fighters his Mexican
badge. They gave him a suit so he could help and that is what he did. This man
was a true hero. He went into to the towers and he didn’t even have to. Sadly
he died on September 25, 2011. He was a true hero. </div>

For example, the latest book was released today. I haven't begun to read that one yet as I am still on the first book "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone". So far, my favorite part was when Harry played Quidditch on his magic broom. I just started reading the second book. This is a very creative story and it's cool that the author wrote eight books in this series. Yesterday I stayed at the library until midnight to get one of the first copies of the latest book. It was so fun. They had games, prizes and the release of the new book "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child". I liked the party and my favorite part was getting the new book. I also liked playing all the games. In one of them I had to guess how many marbles were in a jar. I like how J.K. Rowling is very descriptive. I loved the first book and I can't wait to read the rest of the books. You should them read them too.<br />
<br />
Here is a picture of me right after I got my book. It was after midnight!<br />

My campsite had a bunch of burnt wood and a burnt door from a burnt house. I also went on a swamp walk. There were these nuts that you crack and oil gushes out. There were also these plants called lemon cypress. You crush them and hey smell like lemons.<br />
<br />
At night I saw hundreds of stars and constellations and even planets. I went to a star gazing event and saw Jupiter through a telescope. We went back, told scary stories and roasted marshmallows. I slept in the car so I got a great view of the stars and constellations when I look out the window. Here is a picture of my brother and me during our swamp walk at Big Cypress National Park.<br />

Ever heard of River Country? Well, it is a Disney park that was water themed. A whole water park closed. Why, you may ask? A virus was living in the water! So many rides were shut down. People didn't want to go just to go down a slide or 2. They soon found the virus growing in all the rides. They had no choice but to shut it down. Soon tourist started looking at the ruins and they are a little bit spooky. There is a picture of a slide below. Do you want to see the ruins for yourself? Go ahead. I am not promising you will be let in. Don't blame me if you get caught. I wouldn't go if I were you. So do you believe me? is there really a abandoned water park that once belonged to Disney?</div>

Green ones, yellow ones, all kinds! But there is one like no other... THE ALTAMONTE STORY! A diamond crusted beauty that smelled of a field of flowers, in which belonged to a true master writer. Each book was an autobiography by each writer. The author of the super special book also known as the true one was called Milo. I hope you enjoy the tale of Milo.<br />

<div>
Chapter 1: Early life</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I was brought home from the pound on April 7, 2011 with a friend known as the Scarlet. Me and the Scarlet (another everyday cat) lived with me for quite a long time. For the first few months we made history, yes sleeping in the same spot all day, begging for food and meowing loudly. Did I mention I am a cat? Life was great and all. I mean, it was better than the pound.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Chapter 2: The outside world.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It was a bright and sunny day. My owner picked me up and shuffled me outside without saying a word! I looked around. It was so loud out there. I felt like killing those creatures that were singing so loudly - the birds! But I got used to the outdoor world.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Chapter 3: Lazy times</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Life was getting boring and all I did was lie on the couch and go outside. No more yummy milk, just dry kibbles. I soon wanted to write about my life. Like a jeweler that was lying in a box with a mirror who got a book, placed the diamonds on the book and wrote. After that was done the year was 2016.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Chapter:4: Another </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Life was calm until I heard my owner talking to another human, asking for another cat! GRR I am the last cat in this house. I must not let this happen. Ugh, I don't know what to do I will just have to learn to like him.</div>

My mom and dad said YES!!! For what you may ask? Well they said yes for a...drum roll please. They said yes for a KITTEN! Now, after my great trip to Walt Disney World I will get a 1 month old kitten! Oh, what fun we will have! I will feed it and bathe it and clean its liter box. I don't know what to name it since I don't have it yet and I can't describe it. I want a fluffy cat so maybe I will name it fluffy. Maybe it will be a fancy <span style="font-family: inherit;">cat. I can hardly wait! </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">I will be a great cat owner.</span><br />

<br />
The book is about a hat that can make every thing you imagine come true. The book has a lot of rhymes if you like rhymes. My favorite part of the book are the birds, because I love birds. There are birds coming out of the hat a few times in the book.<br />
<br />
I met the author of the book some time ago and she signed it. You should read this great book!<br />

The cruise was 7 days long. I saw whales, orcas, eagles and dolphins! The best part was the mountain view. At our first stop we went on a train over the mountains. On our 2nd stop we went kayaking. There we saw seals. On our 3rd stop we went to Victoria, Canada. It was nice but we were not there for too long. The next day we flew from Seattle to Miami at 10 o'clock at night and arrived at 8 a.m. the next morning. <br />
p.s. I didn't sleep on the plane.<br />

I am so exited! First we are going to drive 4 hours to Fort Wilderness, 22 minutes from the park. Then we will stay in a cozy cabin. The first morning we will drive to the park and I will finally get to go on space mountain! :D<br />

It is true. I saw lizards hugging each other on a leaf. Lions go hunting. We do those things. Don't we? I saw birds building shelter. Don't we do that? I saw cats playing. We play. Beavers build dams and we do too. Pigs live in farms and some of us do too. Also, you might find this surprising but animals talk. We just can't translate. Well, do you agree with me? Are animals like humans? </span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1
