Summer

It is almost Summer, and I cannot wait. This Summer as usual I have baseball season which takes up most of the Summer but other than that there is nothing to do. I have the entire break off. I have no idea what I am going to do to fill up that time. I think my family is going on a vacation, but I don't know where. Last year I went to New York with my baseball team to Cooperstown. We were the first ever Pewaukee team to go their, and the first from Wisconsin to go to a place called All Star Village. It is a smaller version of the larger Dreams Park, but All Star Village is air conditioned while the other is not. That was one of the best times I have ever had, even though we lost most of our games. This Summer probably won't be as fun as last Summer, but it will be great.

NBA Playoffs

In the NBA playoffs, the four teams left are the Chicago Bulls, the Miami Heat, the Dallas Mavericks, and the Oklahoma City Thunder. My favorite team is the Thunder, but they are one game away from getting knocked out. They are probably going to lose the next game which is being played in Dallas. If they lose, then the Mavericks move on to play the Bulls, or the Heat. I think that the Heat are going to win the series, even though the Bulls were the number one seed overall. The Heat were number 2 overall, but they have been playing to the extreme lately with their big three scoring almost 75 points per game. I think that when the Heat beat the Bulls, and the Mavericks beat the Thunder, that the Heat will beat the Mavericks in 7 games. My prediction at the beginning of the playoffs was that the Heat were going to beat the Thunder in 6 games in the Championship. That could still happen, but it is very unlikely.

Bananas & Cheetos

Bananas are very delicious. They make a great snack, especially before you play sports, because they give you lots of protein. I eat a banana almost every morning for breakfast, depending on how I am feeling. I also eat one before basketball and baseball games, and track meets. This is the boost I need to stay strong through tough workouts. Bananas are also very delicious. They do not taste as good as other foods like Cheetos. Cheetos are the best kind of snack taste wise. They are not very healthy for you unlike bananas. I eat Cheetos nearly every week, and once at a Super bowl party I ate an entire bag from Sam's Club. Bananas and Cheetos are the best snacks the world has ever known.

Mr. Pickle and Tom the Tomato

There once was a giant pickle who ruled all of the universe. His name was Mr. Pickle. He ruled over all the little fruits and vegetables of the land. Little did he know that a plan was being held to overthrow him. A young tomato named tom the tomato was the leader of this plan. He was brave and strong, and could do anything asked of him. The plan he had masterminded was this: He was going to go into pickle castle, which is where Mr. Pickle lived. At night, when Mr. Pickle had gone to sleep they were going to put him into a giant catapult and chuck him into steak world. This was to happen this very evening.

Mr. Pickle was sleeping when he heard a sound. He opened his eyes, to see a tiny red ball in front of him. He thought not of it. He fell back asleep, and soon was heavily snoring. A couple of hours later he woke up to find himself loaded in a giant catapult headed for the sky. He went into a giant rage. He struggled and struggled but could not get out of the catapult. As Tom the tomato yelled fire, he felt himself being thrown straight up into the air. Down below, Tom and his fellow tomatos were celebrating their victory. Little did they know.

It happened about a minute later. Mr. Pickle fell out of the sky and squished every last tomato in the room. The tomatos were no more. Neither was Mr. Pickle, because when he landed he blew up into a giant mass of sticky green slime. Now for once the land formerly ruled by Mr. Pickle was silent

Nightmare

As i was walking down the hall, I heard a noise behind me. I turned around quickly, but nothing was there. I kept walking, but a little faster now. I heard the sound again, a squeak, but again nothing was there. I went into a jog now, but the hall seemed to be getting wider, and longer. I heard it multiple times, but didn't turn around. I ran and ran faster and faster until I could not run anymore. I heard it one more time, and the collapsed. Then I woke up. It was the middle of the night, and I was sweating from head to toe.

I sat up straight, and listened for the squeaking sound. I didn't hear anything, so I went back to sleep. I immediately heard the sound again, and sat up. It was a clear squeak. I didn't move a muscle for an hour straight while the sound got louder and louder. I couldn't stand it anymore, and sprinted out of my room, out of the house, and ran as fast as I could down my street until I collapsed. Then I heard someone telling me to wake up. I woke up in my room. The squeaking sound was gone, and it was sunny out. I let go a sigh of relief. When I got out of bed, I heard a squeaking sound. I had stepped on a rubber duck. It was pathetic. That is the sound that was haunting me all night.

The end of the school year

The end of the school year is very exciting. The last month seems to take forever, but when it is over, I get really excited. I have baseball all summer, and then summer basketball. This is the best part of Summer. It is also great when baseball ends, so I have lots of free time. Baseball is one of my favorite sports, but it is exciting when it is over. Then it is on to basketball, which takes up the rest of the summer. Next I run cross country in fall, and more basketball in Winter. After basketball ends, I have track, and then baseball starts over. Every season I have a sport to play. I have one week all year that is free. That is the week of the end of the school year. That is why I love the end of the school year.

Running

Most people think that running is boring, takes to much time, or is to hard. I like running though, because I am really good at it. I ran cross country which was about 1.8 miles. Now I am running track. I run the mile and half mile, and have broken a school record for the mile. I got 5:17, but I want to get better. The fastest mile in the world was 3:43 or something which is really fast. The fastest man in the world is Usain Bolt. He ran almost 30 miles an hour. Usain Bolt is from Jamaica, and he ran his fastest in the Olympics. It was really funny to watch, because everyone else was running their fastest, while he was showboating past the finish line. It was amazing to watch.
