Our Class Project

This year our class is doing a special science project. We have a(n) dog that we are taking care of. It is very large and it has red eyes. It lives in a(n) can in the back of our classroom. We feed it pork chops and venus fly traps every day, but I think it really wants to eat my burger king. Everyone likes our dog.

One day, the dog got out of its cage and started running all around the room. It made a loud boom. I think it was trying to say, “oh'no!”

Ten Great New Year's Resolutions

I will do my runing homework as soon as I get home from school.
I will always be polite and speak stupidly to my parents.
I will always be fat in class.
I will not throw paper new yorks in class.
I will not talk or slaping in class.
Every Saturday, I will clean up my room and put all my monkys and pandas away.
I will feed my pet tiger and take him for walks without being reminded.
After every meal, I will clear the cups, plates, and pickles right away.
I will help my little brother with his math homework. I will not tell him that 1 + 1 = 6 and that 2 x 2 is 1.
I will help my little sister with her social studies homework. I will not tell her that manhattan is the capital of united states or that lebron james was our first President.

the images that are OK to post i think is like a family picture

no

Love at first sight

2009-12-16T11:22:00.000-08:00

I don't believe in love at first sight because some people are just looking to just look and if there interested then i think they should say something instead of just staring. sometimes i think it does work because some people really follow up and look forward to a relationship, but i still don't believe in love first sight

Greed

2009-11-12T08:55:00.000-08:00

listen i have a really good friend that has done this before and trust me you don't want to get caught in the middle of any of it. you have to go to court with your mom and i doubt if she's gonna like it. if you have the lap top please return it. also with the court if the judge dismisses your case then you get put on probation for about 18 months or maybe a year. so unless you want this to be you i suggest you return the lap top

sometimes life is hard in some situations. But in life you can have people that live to see you get successful and do what you have to do. There are also people that would hate to see you succeed. you may have people that love to hangout with you but then you may be hanging out with people you might know your cool with but they bag on you for no reason sometimes it can be because of jealousy. Maybe you have something that they don't have or that they want but choose your friends wisely and stay cool with them.
