Pumpkin Smashing
How cool is it to see a big pumpkin flying in the air and then seeing it smashed in the road? All the seeds and orange stuff flying everywhere. When Halloween is in the air everybody gets excited, from little boys and girls to men and women. Everybody has a hobby for almost every season year round, well for Halloween my friends and I go smashing pumpkins. But not everything can go as planned. So pumpkin smashers, don’t get caught because you might end up cleaning the remains of the pumpkin, doing everybody's chores, and have most of your privileges taken away.
Here’s my life story about pumpkin smashing.
It was a cold, rainy afternoon a day before  Halloween I was about in 6th or 7th grade and my friends and I got out of school a hour before and were out about doing nothing, until I noticed that  there were pumpkins everywhere and came up with the most brilliant (yet stupid) idea to smash some pumpkins.
“Hey let’s go and smash some pumpkin’s”,  I said  trying to sound cool
Some of my friends they were the same age were like “ok” but some were like “no.”
So, I ran grabbed a big pumpkin and a threw it with all my might on the road. It was an awesome sight but it sucked to be wachted by someone else. You know what happens when you do something and someone sees you do it and they go and tell, well that’s what happened someone told and I got in trouble. After things started getting evened out my mom made me say I was sorry for what I did and it was wrong. When we were heading home my mom was like “you know that you're going to pay for that, money wise.”
I was like “What!”
“Yep” that’s all she said the rest of the way.
I tried to talk her out of it but she wouldn't buy it. Couple days later I payed for the pumpkin and that was the last time I ever did something like that.
Therefore you pumpkin smashers, when you smash a pumpkin make sure that you don’t get caught or else you might end up cleaning the remains of the pumpkin, everybody's chores, and have most of your privileges away. No one wants to do all  of that, so the next time your pumpkin smashing make sure no one is around.

I Hate Math
I hate math! How could anyone enjoy math, let alone be a math teacher? Math homework takes up more time than all other subjects put together. Why should we have to do so many problems on a page, when completing just a few correctly can prove we understand what we’re doing? It’s so frustrating, such a waste of time. When in life do teachers think we’re really going to use this math junk, knowledge anyway? If you master the basics, addition through division, as well as simple fractions, decimals and percent’s, then most likely you’ll survive number problems and equations that you’ll face daily in life.
One of the worst parts about math is how math teachers seem to be the only one’s that understand whatever it is that they’re trying to teach. They expect everyone to understand it right away. Most students don’t!
If you have a question for the teacher it makes your life even worse yet! Because math obviously came easy to them, trying to explain it so we can understand is almost impossible. Now we’re even more frustrated than we were to begin with.
Homework, why bother? You might as well just guess at the answers. You’re just as likely to get a passing score, than you would if you’d spent hours trying to answer the problems. Getting some credit is better than nothing.
Another reason I hate math is because it’s so boring. How could anyone possibly think math is exciting? When I find something boring, I also find that it’s so much harder to stay focused. My thoughts are soon thinking about being anywhere else but in my math class. And while zoning out, I’ve now missed half of what the teacher has said. I have no idea what is going on and now I’m feeling completely lost. The stress becomes more than I have time or energy for.
Although there are many, many reasons why I hate math, the last one I’d like to mention is why does it always have to seem so complicated. There are the rules, terms, definitions, and equations etc., just too many things to remember. It seems impossible to remember it all! While you’ve worked out an equation that seems to be a mile long and you mess up, al that work is for not! If you mess up on one little part of the problem, the whole blasted problem is wrong. Why can’t we get credit for the 99% of the equation we got right? If that’s not painful enough, then you’ve got negatives, decimals, fractions and percent's to name a few you must deal with. Everything becomes even more complicated. There’s just too much to remember and who cares about remembering all this in the first place anyway? Isn’t that why we own calculators? Master your skills of effectively using a calculator and you’ve got it made.
In conclusion, to make matters worse, as a young child I once had my IQ tested. My test results showed my intelligence to be in the well above average or high average range in all subject areas, including math. And, wouldn’t you know it, my math score being the highest! Today I struggle to pass my Algebra test. This doesn’t make sense, just like math!

Thing i hate the most


Has your teacher ever called you up to present a paper or project in front of the whole class!.

Well I have and it sucks. Walking to the front of the class, heart pounding, and body shaking. Thinking

to yourself don’t mess up or everyone will laugh at you. If you haven’t been called up to the front of the

class lucky you, I have and these are the feelings I get every time the teacher calls me up to read a

paper or present a project.

A few examples why I hate reading or show papers to the class is because I have dyslexia and


don’t read well out loud. Also I get very shaky and nervous when I read out loud to a class. Which

cause me to studier on words and make myself look like an idiot in front of the class.

Another reason why I hate reading to the class is because I hate walking up to that chair in the


front of the class, and sitting there in front of the class trying to read a page from a book or a paper I

wrote. That feeling is the worst, studering, and spitting out words trying to get it over with, thinking to

yourself are they laughing or thinking WOW look who can’t read.

Now that you have read my paper I want you think have you ever seen this before or have you


ever felt like this before. Go back and think about when you stood up, or walked to the front of the class reading your paper trying so hard not to stumble over your word’s, and trying not to think about

other kids laughing. Next time just read as best as you can.

Dirt bikes

What’s the most exciting thing have you ever done and will never get tired of doing? For me, dirt biking is the answer! They are like bikes but better because you do not have to pedal. Also if you think about it, it’s like a car . It drives when you press the pedal. The motor is just remarkable, all the pipes and wires all have to do something so the dirt bike can run. All you have to do is shift gears up and down it just that simple. To keep in running, all you have to do is add gas and do maintenance. If you never rode a dirt bike you should start with a weaker dirt bike and then when you get used to it, you can ride a powerful one and have more fun. Dirt bikes are better than ATV’s because with dirt bikes you could drive in thick woods. ATV’s, are more for hunting or sand dunes. Either way you have to always wear a helmet for safety. When you get on the dirt bike, you grab the handle bars and get your legs tight on the shift lever. Your heart starts pumping really hard and your adrenaline rushes while you wait till it heats up. You can feel the cold breeze on your face, and sometimes it even becomes a little scary. As soon as you’re done with the trail you get off the dirt bike and stretch. In the end, when you get home you have to wash it, but it’s all worth it!

Not Your Average Snack

When I'm hungry, there's one thing I always look to. Granola bars.

Just looking at their golden deliciousness of oats and honey, and whatever someone decides to put in them, could make anyone's heart melt like chocolate chips in a sneaky child's hand.

The crunchy, yet soft texture of them make me skip around the kitchen while eating my splenderific snack.

The mix of flavors in granola bars is astounding! Who knows what to expect from a granola bar? Chewy craisins? Sticky caramel? Melty chocolate? Creamy peanut butter? The possibilities are endless!

My favorite part of taking long walks, is tearing the wrapper off a granola bar, and smelling the mouthwatering honey mixed with the fresh scent of pine, because I know no matter how long the walk, I won't ever have to worry about being hungry or without energy.

With granola bars around, there will never be a reason to eat plain, icky trail mix again!

my spin on washers

Washer
What do you love? I love this magical machine. It goes round in circles. If you don’t know it is a washer. Have you ever watched your close be washed? I have it was awesome it was like a circle of great smelling objects. Why do I like washers? I like washers because they can make you smell good. My favorite washer is the 5 rinse cycle because is spends five different ways. I also like it because you load it from the front not the top. When you get board you can throw a load in and watch it wash. I have tried to watch a dryer but they aren’t as amazing because they don’t give off the great tide scent that makes the washer so much more amusing. So if you get some money and want something to keep you entertained buy a five-rinse cycle washer. If you don’t you’ll be sorry.

Judgements

Judgements are like the cold shock of drowning it wraps around my mind and body and shakes me till I can't breath. My mind goes blank like a black board being erased, My feelings get hurt like being slapped. When I recover after being pulled out of the water onto the shore. I shake like a small tree and ball my fists, my eyes go black with darkness it changes the sweet person i am into a defencive person. The world slows and my brain scatters. I go and confront what ever person i need to, to get the issue resolved and avoid any traces of drama. When and if everything gets resolved i will avoid or befriend that person.
