Blog 3: Ten Years From Now 269 Words

    It is ten years after I wrote this. I am living in the city of St. Louis after I finished college. I am surprised I am living here because I don’t really like cities. But it is working out. I just got out of school for architecture and opened my own business. I have built ten houses now and the owners love their new homes.  I have an apartment and am saving up for my own house. I am living with my two dogs, a French bulldog and a white Siberian husky with blue eyes. In the news they just discovered big foot. There were sightings of big foot in Funk’s Grove about 15 years ago and they finally found him. They now have him captured and are doing tests on him.  They also found a new planet. It is called kigor. They found living life forms on it and they are called kigorians. They are ten feet tall and their skin is the color green. They look almost exactly human but taller and a different color. We are still learning about the kigorians. Jason Statham is president now. In sports, dodge ball just became a national sport and is in most high schools now. Dodge ball is also on TV. The technology now is very advanced. They made these new see-through touch screen phones and iPods.  They also made new technology to improve architecture. There is a program where you can build a house from the ground up in a virtual world with all the elements you need to build a house. The future seems pretty sweet, huh?

Blog 2: The Joy of Cold Weather 280 Words

   I personally like cold weather. Cold weather means it is winter time. Usually I can’t wait for summer at the end of winter because I’m tired of being cold, but at the end of summer I am ready for winter because I’m tired of being hot. I get excited the first time it snow because I love snow. Snow is fun because it gets you out of school sometimes and you can have snowball fights and go sledding or snowmobiling. I remember when it snowed and the power would go out for days and we had to use a kerosene heater. I actually liked not having power because I didn’t have to stay in and watch TV, I could go outside and roll around in the snow. When it starts getting cold my family starts cooking more soup than usually. We usually have baked potato soup or chili. We usually have soup because sometimes we are sick or we need warmed up and soup helps that. I remember when I was little and I used we used to have huge snowball fights throughout town. I also like ice. I like sliding around and being weightless. I like to run real fast then jump on the ice and slide ten yards. Falling down is the bad part of ice though. I bruised my hip up once because I fell so hard on ice. I have also twisted up my wrist and jammed up most of my fingers falling on ice but its fine because I was having fun. I also like winter because of Christmas. I like having a whole bunch of Christmas parties with the family. Present aren’t bad either.

Blog 1: New Semester 252 Words

      Well I made it to the second semester of freshman year. I thought High School was going to be hard but it isn’t. I like how there are two semesters. Last semester was good but half of my classes were on one side of the school and my two other classes were on the opposite side of the school. This time all of my classes are on the same side of the school so I don’t have to walk as much. I didn’t really like production technology that much because he made the final about stuff that we didn’t even know. I like my new classes too. I have physical science, algebra 2, English 1, and PE/health, in that order. I don’t like how I have physical science is my first block class though, because I like science but I can’t really enjoy it as much because I’m usually tired in the morning. I have good classes but I don’t have as many classes with my friends this semester. I hope I get A’s in all of my classes. 2011 should be a good year. I am hoping to get my permit in July, so then I can get my license on my birthday next year. This spring break we are supposed to be going on vacation too. We are going to Florida or Chicago. So at least I have something to look forward to later in the year.  This winter is going by fast so spring break should be here soon.
