Purple Pear’s terrible, horrible, very bad, no fun field trip

Once I went camping at C.A.W. Camp site. I was so excited to go there, because I thought I might be able to climb to the top of a tree. I got there at 11:30am. I was very excited. But quickly my excitement went away after I saw 2 toads, 5 spiders, and 4 bugs in the bathroom of my cabin. After we got set we ate lunch at a Cafeteria. The food was horrible. I took the food choice I liked best, but I forgot what I had. After that I went to the rope course. I was excited, but Mr. C – my friend’s dad got hurt. He fell from a wooden climbing wall. An ambulance came to send him to the hospital. It started raining and we didn’t get to climb the rope course. It was no fun. I could tell that it was going to be a terrible, horrible, very bad, no fun field trip.

We had to run to the basketball court. The game we played was boring, and at dinner everyone got two popsicles with jokes on them. The popsicles were green, my favorite, and I got one popsicle with no joke on it. It also melted, and spilled on my new rainbow shirt. I could tell that it was going to be a terrible, horrible, very bad, no fun field trip. At the talent show I did not get to sing Kids Bop, a song Anna and I made up, and I did not get to perform a magic show because it's getting late. Jess told me Mia lost my goggles when she was washing them in a lake. I cried. I got tired before I sang “Beautiful America” with Mia. We finally got to sing it. I could tell that it was going to be a terrible, horrible, very bad, no fun field trip.

The next day when I ate breakfast everybody got a little cereal box, but I did not. My friends all got a pancake with syrup on top, but I did not because they ran out. After that we played prey and predator. I did not like the game. I was at the bottom of the food chain, so higher people of the food chain could catch me. They could take one of my lives, so I just tried to lose. I did. I could tell that it was going to be a terrible, horrible, very bad, no fun field trip. After that we played "Get The Bears Fish". I never got the bears fish, so I never got to be the bear. I was so sad. After a while it started raining hard. We ran to the cafeteria to eat lunch because it was raining. I could tell that it was going to be a terrible, horrible, very bad, no fun field trip.

After lunch we had three choices. I picked fishing. When we got there, I did not catch any fish. Not even one. Then, we went to the volleyball court. I did not serve well at all, and the ball never came to me. I did not get a chance to hit the ball. Sand was stuck on my foot. It would take hours to get the sand all off my foot, but we had to leave. Some sand was still stuck in my sock and foot. We left for the tennis court. I could not play tennis well at all. At the tennis court, we played games I did not like. On our way to dinner it was raining. At dinner everybody got a brownie, but I did not. The brownies were crispy, full of chocolate, and my favorite. The brownies were out when I went to get one. I could tell that it was going to be a terrible, horrible, very bad, no fun field trip.

After dinner, we went to the campfire. I did not have fun, and I only got to have 2 glow sticks. My job in the game defense was security. I made sure none of the bad people came to the good area. I did not like my job. It was a boring job. Later we went back to our cabins, took our shower, brushed our teeth, and climbed into bed. We talked for a little while and fell asleep.

Nana woke up first. Next, Dana woke up. Then, Mia and I woke up at around 7:00 at dawn. Rain said she could wake up at 4:00 at dawn, but she did not. She probably lied. We got ready to go to breakfast. I think it was raining. I sat next to Mia and Dana. This time the food was not so bad. One, because I liked mashed potato. Two, the cinnamon rolls were delicious. That was all they had left. I exclaimed. After breakfast I went to archery. It was a long way to get there. I got poison ivied. When we shot bown’arrows I almost got hit by one of the arrows. I only got one turn to shoot bown’arrows. The tips of the bown’arrows were sharp. Then, we went to Scott Hall where we got to play games like Bingo, ping-pong, and pole. I only got to play Bingo. I also lost. I could tell that it was going to be a terrible, horrible, very bad, no fun field trip. Next, we went mountain boarding. It was scary, but I made it down the small hill. Next, we went to lunch. The food was not great, but not horrible. I had some mashed potato, carrots and some cheese.

After lunch we packed our stuff and went home with a chaperon. My chaperon was Anna’s mom. On our way home we talked about how much we practiced to do the talent show. I practiced for a week or two, but we did not have time to sing it. I also really thought I would have a great time at the beginning, but I had the worst time ever. When I got home, my mom told me some field trips were like that. “Next year it will be better” she said.

The Cupcake II

Cuppey the baker was sitting in his bakery baking a cupcake. Suddenly the door flew open and there stood Kelly all pale and sweating. Cuppey said "What is wrong? What is wrong?" Kelly said panting "I need a cupcake. Quick! Quick!" "Why do you need a cupcake now?" She said "My evil step mother is after me, and she will not let me have a cupcake." "Oh my gosh!" Cuppey said "Here you go. Hide it from your mean step mother." "Thank you" she shouted as she ran home. She hid in her attic and ate it up, but soon her step mother came marching right up to the attic. She knew where her "hiding spot" was. Before Kelly could finish, her step mother came marching up to her, right in the face. Good thing Kelly had a bubble blower. She blew bubbles all over her step mother's face. The bubbles were big, clear, and round.

A couple days later the news spread that Kelly's evil step mother was dead, because the bubble had a special chemical that would kill you. Kelly was so happy. Everyday she went to Cuppey's bakery to eat magic cupcakes, and then Cuppey adopted Kelly when she was 10 years old. They lived happily ever after.

The Cupcake I

Here comes Cuppey the rich baker again! Cuppey made a cupcake on a fine Sunday morning. He said to himself "Today I will become very rich, just like yesterday. I would earn 100,000,000,000 dollars today." He was making a wish when suddenly the bakery burst into flames. He felt like he had butterflies in his stomach, so Cuppey walked to the stove to turn down the heat, but suddenly the stove burst into flames. Cuppey went to get a bucket of water. He poured the water on the fire, so he could get out. Cuppey was safe, but his house was not, neither was his cupcake. He quickly dialed nine one one for the fireman. They said they would be approaching. Once the firemen got there, they put out the fire and made a clear signal. Cuppey used his emergency money to buy a new house and stove, then he baked another cupcake, and made a wish. Just then, 100,000,000,000 bucks popped up. He finally became rich.

Going On Vacation

On July 4th, 2007, I heard my mom say that my family and my friends could go on vacation together if their parents let them go. Next, I heard her say that we were going to Virginia Beach. I was so excited. The next morning I asked her if my friends could go. She said that they could not go, they had to do homework. I asked if I could help them do some homework. My mom said yes. First, I helped Amy do her math. "Check" I said. Then, I went to help Sally with her science, "check". Next, I went to Linda's house and helped her do her Chinese. "Check" I said "Last stop at Ann's house". I helped Ann with her report. "Check" I said "All done." When I got home, I asked my mom if they could come. She said "Yes! They finished their homework." I said "I helped them." So we went to VA beach and had a good time.
