Fart Solutions

            Scientists have a theory that dinosaurs' farts. They think that methane from dinosaur farts actually warmed the planets and made them extinct.  Nowadays, cows are the problem for us to tackle. I think that I actually have a smart idea to get rid of all the excess methane.

            I think that we should invent a super-long tube that runs all the way to outer space. That way the methane goes straight out of the atmosphere without making any hole or creating too much carbon dioxide. Then we attach suction cups with the tubes to the cows you-know-whats and when they fart the methane will run through the tube and into the atmosphere,.

            However, there is one problem. We will need a lot of resources to make that super long tube. Hmmmmmmmmmmm... we might need funding too. Also, cows are all over the world that's a lot of tubes that we will need to make. Plus, what will we make the tubes out of. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... maybe this idea is a little far out.

NutraHelper

            My business is more of a service, we help clients have a healthier lifestyle. Our trained tele-communicators help people solve their health problems. We can solve overweight problems and can help people manage stress in a healthy way. Our commercials are 100% true except for maybe an embellishment here or there. Look for our products on supermarket shelves; such as Healthy Diet Tea, Non fat Butter cookies and NutraGrain Healthy Bars. All these products have very low calorie, sugar and trans-fat levels. They are designed to help you lead a healthier life.

Wind Farms are Safe... Right?

             Surprisingly, a study is saying that wind farms are causing the temperature to go up 1 degrees Celsius. However, we do not know who sponsored this study. Perhaps it's an oil company, trying to get business again. Or maybe it's an energy supply company. I think that we should conduct another study, but over a larger course of time. Perhaps a year or two.

              In the meantime, we should start relying on solar power and water power. We should also start reducing our usage of non-reusable energy like coal or oil. That way we have something to use now before we can find the best way to use energy.

Looking into Space (4/26/12)

             I think it's important to study other universes because that way we can learn more things about our vast space.You never know what new things you will discover and what things there could be. However, we must be careful because the more we know the more scary space could be. For example, think about sizes, starting with your town.

             The chain starts with town...

  1. Town
  2. City
  3. County
  4. State
  5. Region
  6. Side
  7. Country
  8. Continent
  9. Hemisphere
  10. World
  11. Earth
  12. Solar System
  13. Milky Way (Galaxy)
  14. Universe
  15. Multiverse 
             See how the larger the more terrifying? I agree with learning more, but try to limit the knowledge please. All this information is making my head spin! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Pride: Good or Bad

            Pride is a deep topic, however I always wonder, is pride good or bad? There is good pride and bad pride, my friends and enemies often have pride in them. My friends have the good type of pride, but my many enemies are full of narcissism. What is good pride? What is bad pride? Hmmmmmmmm... Let's see...

            Good Pride: Pride is part of everyone's personality, but it's good pride that is important to have. I think that good pride is characterized by proudness but not in a conceited way. Everyone will be proud of themselves at some time in their life.

           Bad Pride: A lot of the people I'm not fond of all have part of their disposition filled with conceit. A lot of them are in my school and annoy me at any second possible. There is this girl (I'm not naming names) but she is such a show-off and she displays a head full of braids every single day. She thinks she's Katniss and wears a brown shirt and some sport jacket everyday. She thinks she is the brightest mind in the world. I just can't stand those type of people. They're always prancing around thinking they're all that.  Stupid, isn't it? I hate those peeps, hate them! All stuck up and everything.

            I like to compare these people to peacocks. Always showing off their feathers. Trying to prove that they're better then everyone else. What annoys me even more is that they actually have friends. Some like hanging out with popular kids and this makes them feel cool but more like constipated, overrated, out-a-style, loser! These kind of people are also usually bossy too. I remember that in my dream a magical person (don't know what it was) gave me permission to murder a horrible person in the world that we can live without, so I grabbed a kitchen knife, the big kind and ran after the person I was to pursue. I found her sitting by a wall reading a book called How to be Popular. As I came after her with the kitchen knife, she tried to climb up the wall (stupid). But, she failed after getting 2 inches up. I came at her and killed her. I felt so triumphed! I even woke up with a great feeling in me.

            Oh, and I had this other dream where my mortal enemy and I were at the supermarket. As usual she had her hair in her flouncy french braids. As her mom was in the pasta aisle, I cornered her into the dairy section and pulled her ponytail-holder out. Her braids immediately came out. She ran crying to her mommy, how hilarious.

A Whole New Rock

I can show you my rock
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, my friend, now when did
You last let your hands create?

I can show you my ways
Show you minerals and parts
That are needed for my new rock
So we can make it all together

A whole new rock
A new part of the ecosystem
It's now the world's to use
For walls and dams
A plus for us and everyone

A whole new rock
A whole new rock that I have made
But when I'm creating
It's crystal clear
That now I've got a whole new rock for me
Now I've got a whole new rock for me
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/a/aladdin/a_whole_new_world.html ]
An unbelievable sight
Indescribable beauty
Sparkling, Glorious, Beautiful
Through an endless diamond mine

A whole new rock
Don't you dare take your hands away
A hundred thousand things to make
Hold your breath - it gets better
I'm like a shooting star
I've come so far
I can't go back to where I used to be

A whole new rock
Every part's a beauty
With new discoveries
Every mineral is great
I'll find them anywhere
There's more to share
Let me share this whole new rock with you

A whole new rock
That's what I made
A thrilling thought
A wondrous stone
For you and me

My Chimpanzee

            NEVER, NEVER IN YOUR LIFE SHOULD YOU BABYSIT A CHIMPANZEE. I tell ya, it's pure work. Worse than a baby. Here is a list of tips and some advice you will need if you ever babysit one.

  1. Never give the chimpanzee more than 3 bananas; the last time I did... It threw up!
  2. Cover ALL the furniture. When chimpanzees finish their food they tend to run around so they can POOP!
  3. Keep the vet's number close, you never know when there's an emergency!
  4. Bananas are always great bribing treats, but don't use them too often. Then, they lose their value.
  5. Never take a chimpanzee into public, they go CRAZY!
            You see, I know this because I have babysat a chimpanzee and like I said they are HORRIBLE! Such uncooperative creatures. I was just minding my own business when my friend Talisha knocked. "Hey," she said. "Can you, by any chance baby---, no chimpanzee-sit my little babe please." I could only nod. "How much will you pay?" "Well by the trouble little Ethan gets into, it;ll be about $12 an hour." "OK, do you happen to have a list of instructions?" "Yep," Talisha said holding out a sheet of paper. "You'll need Chimpoo Shampoo, Grow n' Gorilla food, Chimpy Banana Treats, and Monkey Exercise Ball.

My Fav Movie

            There are a lot of movie that I have seen but I think my all-time favorite is In the Mist of the Green Papayas. However, I'm not necessarily sure about the title. In the Mist of the Green Papayas is such a sad and touching movie that I remember the story but I forget the title. In the story Mui is a little girl sold at a very young girl to a rich family as a servant. The family has 3 boys plus a girl that died at age 8, and when Mui is around 12, she falls in love with the oldest son who was 16.

             Soon the master ages and dies, Her mistress ages too and gives Mui what Theo (the mistress' daughter) would have inherited. Mui soon becomes a servant for her mistress's eldest son, which is her crush. However, to Mui's sadness, her crush already has a girlfriend. But one day, her crush finds her more interesting than his girlfriend. When his girlfriend found out that she was messing around with him, she stomps off. Mui is wed to her beloved and as usual... They live happily ever after!

Time-Out Time

            One day in a far away land there was a kid named John. However, John was a very bad boy. He would find all the ways he could to provoke his poor mother. He would bite her, wipe mud in the house, and bring frogs home. One day his mother could no longer put up with his actions, so she finally put horrible John in time-out.

            However, putting John in time-out wasn't the easiest thing to do. He would bite, kick and scream this blood curdling shriek. However, because this was John's 1st "official" time-out so his mother magically had some unknown strength to set him into time-out.

Antiquated Musical Artists- From the Dinosaur Ages

            I don't know much about musical artists from "The Dinosaur Ages" but I do know a few. I think that Michael Jackson was OK, I like most of his songs. My own personal favs (favorites) are Billie Jean, Thriller, I Just Can't Stop Loving You, and Black or White. Some people like his dancing the best, but I prefer his music. However, his raspy voice (in my opinion) isn't all that great. My favorites are more of those catchier songs that end up sticking in your head.

            Even though I like Michael's music, the world continues to revolve. When Michael died it seemed like year after year his fame died away. This won't keep me away from my favorite songs. However, as the world grows I will grow with it. I feel like with each year, I slip farther and farther away from the greatness of his music. But we will always remember him and his music.

The WORST Hotel!

            One summer, my family went to Busch Gardens and Water Country USA in Virginia. Obviously, we stayed at a hotel. However, this was the CRAPPIEST hotel I've ever been in for centuries (not that I'm that old). You see, the hotel I was in was disgusting!

            As we prepared for bed, I stripped the top sheet of the bed. I felt the white bed sheet underneath it, I'm very particular about my sleeping commodities. I was expecting it to be nice and dry, but it was damp! Yes, DAMP! I was horrified, how could a 3-star hotel have damp bedsheets? Ever so slowly, I touched the pillow, it was also damp. This was unbelievable. I checked the other bed, it was also damp. Was this a dream? I pinched myself but did not wake up, this was the ugly truth.

            As a clever girl, I used a blanket I had to cover the white bed sheet (which I washed when we got home). I also covered the pillow with the towel (which I washed at the hotel). However, the only humorous thing was that the towel smelled like salmon, and I was dreaming about salmon all through the night.

My Wish- Invisibility

            On March 31 I found myself in the presence of a magical talking daisy. It said it could grant me a wish, but it would only last for a day. I decided to wish for- invisibility. The daisy said that this was a popular wish and that I wouldn't be surprised by the results. I didn't get that, what results?

             The next day I woke with a weird sensation. Apparently, my cat was on me but wouldn't move. It was like I was invisible... Wait! I am invisible! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! This is going to be a great day, plus, it was April Fool's Day. At breakfast, I dumped tea and sugar on mother. Then, I enjoyed smearing oatmeal on father's tie. They were frozen with shock.

             I suddenly remembered it was Sunday, that means I can play tricks all day long. With that in mind, I walked down the street in search for the baker. At the bakery, I mixed up all the locations of the pastries an put mud in the chocolate tube for making "chocolate" buns.

             Soon, boredom came across me so I finished "substituting"the sugar and went in search for other things to do. Not long after, I decided to head for the park. I knew that there are always little kids to play pranks on. I put rocks on the ends of slides, smeared glue on monkey bars and put slippery shampoo on the swings. Then, I sat in the shade and watched the kids get hurt, Hooray!

            As people say, time flies fast when your having fun. The day was soon over and the invisibility was soon wearing out. I was exhausted. I finally get what the magical daisy meant. The results were very self-explainitory.

New, Newer, Newest...

            There are many schools that need the $49 million from the referendum. However, Cab is first on the list. Besides the Auditorium, Elevator, and Fire Pressurization much of Cab need the money. For example: smart board projectors, classrooms, AC, and piano headphones all need fixing. The point I need to make today is the Mr. Patton's room is TOO small!

             To my knowledge, Mr. Patton is the only 6th grade teacher without a smart board. His room is so small we play desk bingo, a game where the seats get moved and squished up more! Plus, Mr. Patton's room is constantly smelling unpleasant and due to the lack of space, the scent is even STRONGER!

              Let's just say that Mr. Patton's room isn't exactly the main point. I also strongly believe that the piano room needs SERIOUS attention. The room is sweltering HOT! We need AC, otherwise we're living scrambled eggple as is egg and people. Not only does the hot air cause a problem but the headphones are FALLING APART! This can bother your practicing because the headphones could just spontaneously fall apart at a really terrible time. Even the pianos are in bad shape. Some pianos have keys stuck together. Other ones have weak power buttons, all this shows is that the pianists aren't treated fairly!

The Alien Mareesh

            One night I was laying down, basically doing nothing. I couldn't sleep, just breathing and thinking. Suddenly, I heard whoosh, the sound a parachute would make. Then I heard "Hello there."  Ever so slowly, I turned my head afraid by what could be standing there. "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!" I screamed. I was terrified, there on the open windowsill was a creature, some sort of space creature standing there with its hand held out. "Nice to meet you." It said in a robotic voice, "I am Mareesh the Green Plution."

             Shakily, I shook its hand. "Nnicce tttoo mmeett yyou Maareeesssh." I stuttered. "Wwellccome tto Earrthh." "Thank you." said Mareesh. "Please take me exploring." I decided to take him on a nature walk in the woods. So instead of sleeping, I ended up trampling in the woods at 11:00 with a Green Plution. Mareesh seemed to like nature. He reached his skinny green arm out all the time to pet some moss or a tree. Apparently he couldn't tell the difference between animals and plants.

             At about 1:00 we headed home after walking for 2 hours. the moon was full and a light breeze was blowing on this warm fall night. Leaves crunched as we lumbered by. Suddenly Mareesh started to get impatient. "When will we get back?" He kept asking, "My colony is waiting." At about 1:30 I had to admit we were lost. Mareesh started to loose his marbles. "What! How could you?" He screamed, "I trusted you, but now you must suffer!" with the flick of his ebony black cape, I appeared in a flying saucer.

            Mareesh showed me a selction of bones and skulls. "These are people like you that have also taken me on nature walks." He said wickedly. "They all have lost me in woods. Some in Turkey, Brazil, Australia, and now in Pennsylvania were you live. They all have been harshly punished. Now it is your turn, would you like to be roasted, steamed, baked, or stewed?" "Noooooooooooooooooooooooo!" I screamed. This couldn't be happening.

Space Journal

February 19, 1962


             I am to be the first in space, first! I am thrilled to have this honor although I am aware of the dangers. I have heard stories of the dangers such as: cosmic rays, explosions, aliens, and disappearing. However, I am undaunted and I should be brave. I will be courageous and show Russia how powerful America is. I will leave tomorrow in my spaceship and become the first.


February 20, 1962


            I am sitting in a room now putting on my gear. I feel as bulky as a fat snowman and am ready to tackle space. Russia shall fail and America shall win. I will show them, yes ME alone! It is now time to board the spaceship. Let all go well. I pray for blessedness and all the luck I need. I shall be the first.


February 21, 1962


             I have returned from my mission and I have survived. Finally, Russia has lost! Lost! Ha Ha Ha Ha for Russia! All those stories, Poo them! There are no aliens, no explosions and no disappearances. Poo them all! I am the first, the first ever! I showed Russia, showed them all. Space is not so scary let us prepare for the Moon!

The Dragon in Me

            I may look calm, serene and shy on the outside, but if you take the time to dig deep down you may find a disposition that resembles a dragon. I'm a stubborn person, never giving up.  I am a destined leader wanting to lead my own group. I can be fierce to stand up to what I believe in and show what I'm made of. I am a dragon, a golden dragon.

            What is coincidental is that I am a TRUE golden dragon. I am born in the year of the dragon. I think that the zodiac is quite correct. Even if it only works on a few people. The zodiac blessed me with this and I am happy to take this blessing.

The Flying Lime Green Teddy Bear Eating Hippo

            I was in the Canary Islands, and I had discovered a new species, the Flying Lime Green Teddy Bear Eating Hippo. It's lime green, eats teddy bears, and flies! The Hippo is about the size of a rhino and weighs about 1,234 pounds. It has fold back wings, so when they are spread out the wingspan is 99 feet from tip to tip. Its diet is rare, the teddy bears it eats are grown on undermud trees of their beloved mud puddle. It got its unique color from a staining paint that accidentally spilled over their location in 2045.

            I was 23 at that time. I had just graduated from animal discovery school and decided to go to the Canary Islands as a vacation. Then, I discovered a mud puddle. This was common in the Isles so I wasn't excited about anything. Then I tried the mud and found it ICY COLD! Now this was weird. How could a mud puddle be icy cold? Then as I looked downstream I saw lime green hippos chewing on teddy bears. I had discovered a new species no more than 1 month after graduating from school! I was going to be rich!

Silly People

            2 people (Bob and Susan) are camping near a beaver dam. They are fighting over a their lunch. There is a hot dog and an egg salad. They both want the hot dog.

Bob: I should have the hot dog because I'm a guy and girls always worry about their weight and stuff.

Susan: You're saying I'm fat? Oh no you didn't!

Nearby 2 beavers (Sam and Lily) are watching. They find their argument very interesting.

Sam: What in the world are they doing?

Lily: I really don't know. It looks like they're doing something humans call fighting.

(Beavers don't fight, they just motion that the stick they have is theirs and the other one lying somewhere else must be the other beaver's.)

The Stolen Watch of Diamonds (Thursday, February 2, 2012)

            It was a Saturday morning when the thief had robbed the jewelry store. He was 5 ft. 5in. and weighs 167 pounds. The suspects were narrowed down to a John, Jack, and Bob. We will further investigate this.

6 days later.......

             We have concluded our decision. Bob did the stealing of the diamond encrusted watch. He had wanted it so he could smuggle it to Germany and sell it for $25,000,000. He wore an employee uniform and tricked the manager into giving it to him for safekeeping.

Just Plain Wierd (Tuesday, January 31, 2012)

            I was in court, I was guilty. Wait! I was guilty? This can't be true. I rubbed my eyes, it didn't do any good. The judge slammed down the mallet. I was not going to go to jail. "Because this is your first conviction, you will be sentenced to polishing gum wrappers for 3 months." I couldn't believe this was happening, I could only acquiesce.

            After 3 months I returned to court and thanked the judge. Boy! That was weird. Then , I heard a "BEEP, BEEP, BEEP." Oh no! I woke with a start to my alarm clock. Phew! That was a close one!

My Biggest Fan!!!!!

            My biggest fan is my brother. Ever since he was able to walk and talk he loved to mimic me in a good way. He even told his teacher "My sister gets very good grades." Even now whenever I come home from school he's like "Sissy, your home!" If he says a mean comment to me and sees that I'm upset he will immediately say "Sorry, sorry I really didn't mean that." He's truly a really sweet supporter.

            I used to do Odyssey of the Mind. Each time the competition neared my brother will always wish me luck. He cheers for our teams whether we win or lose. Now that's just true support. Odyssey isn't the only one. Any competition I'm in is always accompanied by my brother and his cheers and claps. He is my BIGGEST fan.

The Penguin in my Tummy

            When I was ill with the stomach virus, I assumed that I would be better in no time flat. I mean, it was just the old stomach virus. But who knew it was that terrible... Every time I had the sensation of sneezing, a penguin would pop out of nowhere and say "Gaba gaba" and then fly off. (In my world penguins can fly.) I was wondering where that penguin came from just as another penguin appeared. Then I understood. The penguin must have come from my tummy as I sneezed. And sure enough, I sneezed again and a penguin popped out. Let's just hope this only happens for stomach viruses and not regularly.

Synopsis


            Ruby was a perfectly normal girl living happily in Ohio, until she learned that super natural powers actually exist. She signed herself up for The Magical School, said a teary good-bye to her family and left. There she adopted the name Ruby and mastered the powers of hypnotization and static shock (To stun enemies while they are still hypnotized). She got these powers not by instinct, but by learning techniques to control her powers. However, she is an earth girl so she isn’t perfect. Her weakness is those of a typical teenage girl, shopping and electronics. Ruby also adopted the hate of The Vampire School, because that is her school’s archenemy.

             Fang was born a vampire, and was enrolled in The Vampire School since she was 3. She from birth learned to drink blood but also learned cape tricks, so she can strangle and capture people.  Unfortunately, vampires have weaknesses too, the smell of blood (especially animal blood) is irresistible. Also, her school was the opponent of The Magical School and sometimes would battle…

The Other Me

            Adnama is me... but not exactly. I mean she's me but not exactly, I mean like an opposite... no not exactly. Oh! I can't explain! Don't mind that let's just get to the details. Adnama's personality is quite different than mine. She has been held back so many times, that although she's 21 she's still in 3rd grade! Adnama finds pleasure in playing pranks and disrupting libraries, although she hates attention (not that I'm an attention hogger). Adnama finds infants especially fun to bully, (she can't put up fights with people her own age). Looks like that's basically all... Wait! Don't try to befriend Adnama she isn't trustworthy either!

Changes...

            Frustrating, frustrating F-R-U-S-T-R-A-T-I-N-G! Life can be so FRUSTRATING! This is how I felt when I returned to the U.S. at 3 years old without any knowledge of English. I hated school HATED it! the only person I trusted was my teacher...

            However, I got out of that situation with working hard, learning my English. Now I have no problems, I have lots of friends and do well in school.

            So how frustrating something is, there is always a key... overcoming that frustration.

Mars, here I come!

            Have you ever dreamed of going on vacation in Mars? That fiery, red planet that is our neighbor, with it's fierce dust storms and tall, red peaks.

            Well, I've always wondered what Mars will be like. Will it really be red and dusty? Does it really have a chance of life?

            The first thing I do when I hop off my spaceship is going to be just plainly explore the planet. Then, I will collect some souvenirs, like rocks, dust and maybe even the ice samples. Next, I'll search around for any Martians and if I'm lucky I'll even make friends with them. Finally, when I'm exhausted, I climb into my rocket and head back home!

            Maybe Earth isn't so boring. After all it's Home, Sweet Home.

Sherman the Germ

            Ello, me am Sherman the Germ (the grammar is supposed to be incorrect) and I see the world in a much, much different view then you and all those others dudes and duddets. The thing you call a nand or is it a gand, is all ready a pret-ty big world already. Oh, yeah it's a hand!

            The only thing is that I've seen a lot of the world but not the type of stuff you see when you travel, I mean it's not really a variety, man. It usually adds up to doorknobs, plates, tissues and mostly more hands! According to pilots, teachers, taxi drivers and tour guides, I've been to Paris, Venice, Beijing, Madrid and a lot of other places!

            But as you see being a germ isn't all that exciting, the world to us can be really, really dull.
