The Tree

Today I saw a tree. Now. I know what you're thinking. "Trees are everywhere. It's not an event to see one!" Yes, reader, I am aware of that. BUT! This tree was something........ Time for explanations. Okay. Let me describe what happened.

We were stopped at a red light, and it just so happens that there was this tree right outside of my window. Let me describe it. It was blotchy with brown and white on its bark. The leaves were perfectly green. The bark was what caught my eye. The way it was spotted, it looked like someone dumped either a bucket of white paint or brown all over the trunk. The paint had dried and peeled revealing the opposite color. I know it wasn't paint. It seemed to me that the bark was either white, but chipping to show brown, or brown, but chipping to show white. This tree was so strange. It caught my eye. Again.

This is a story I wrote about this tree, which I named Charlie.

Every night, Jenny would ride home from school on her bike. She would always have a stick with her, which she used to smack all the trees she passed. One tree, named Charlie, chipped and chipped until he looked like he does today. THE END.

This is what happened. I saw that tree, womdered about it, and decided it would be a good thing to blog about.

See ya!

Idioms are fun. So is drawing on the computer. So I said to myself, "Why not combine the two......."

Think of an idiom and post it as a comment. Okay!

JoKeS: wHy ArE tHeY fUnNy?

Today's Joke: So my math teacher is teaching us about lines, points, arrays, and things like that. "Kristina," she says. "Please come up and show the class a line. Draw a point 'a' on your line. Hurry up. Get on!" I walk up to the front of the room and draw _______ I put point "a" on the line. . "Get the point?" I say.



Today's Other Joke: So this kid's homework is to learn part of the alphabet. So this kid walks up to his mom and says, "Mom, what's the first letter of the alphabet?" Of course, she's talking on the phone. "Stop it!" she says. This kid walks up to his dad, who's watching football. "Dad, what's the second letter of the alphabet?" asks the kid. "Yessss!!!" shouts this kid's dad. So this kid walks over to his brother who's playing with his action figures. "Dude, what's the third letter of the alphabet?" this kid asks. "Oh, them? Oh, yeah? They're Batman and Catwoman!" says this kid's brother. So this kid walks over to his sister, who's playing with barbie dolls. So this kid asks, "What's the fourth letter of the alphabet?" this kid asks. "I live in Barbie world. After all, my name is Barbie!" says the sister. So this kid raises his hand in class the next day to recite his alphabet. He gets called on, "Stop it!" "Do you want to go to the Principal's office?" yells the teacher. "Yessss!!" says this kid. So this kid walks to the Principal's office and the principal says, "Who are you're parent's, this kid?" "Oh, them? Oh, yeah? They're Batman and Catwoman!" "Where do you live?" asks the principal. "I live in Barbie world. After all, my name is Barbie!"

Well, jokes are funny cuz they make you laugh. Hey! Stop laughing! See what I mean? Jokes don't have to be a short question, pause, then the punchline! They can be stories.

ATTENTION!!!!
These are not actual chats. They have not been illegally copied from an important document or private writing area. They were written by a nine year old girl. There are many people named Billy Jacob and John. These names were not copied from live people she knows.

To my friend....

Okay. Friend, you know who you are. Listen to Mr. Spaceman, Rock Around The Clock, The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything, Puff The Magic Dragon, and At The Hop. Try to sing along. The songs that are ukulele songs that I listed are all in the key of G. You can read the other posts, too if you want to. Try playing G on your ukulele while you listen to those songs and see how it sounds. You don't have to read anything. I wrote a poem about music because I thought it would be cute. Here it is!

Piano
I was in the talent show.
I played on the piano.
The song I played I won't tell you,
Because it was so sad and blue.

I am posting this again so I hope you read it. Enjoy! (this is the life of a lego I promised to write a long time ago)

Pinky was an unwanted lego. She was pink. When Pinky was born, she was even discarded by her parents. Now that Pinky was 10, things were a lot worse. She often got teased in her small 5th grade class, not that Mrs.Blinkly cared. You see, no one had ever even heard of such nonsense. A pink lego! Rubbish! Pinky wasn't a wimpy type, but she didn't exactly enjoy the teasers. Not that she minded them, but she was just looking for her own place in the world. Then one day, Pinky got a package in the mail that said on the front: "Pinky. I know how you feel so I jumped out of this little boy's box, into his room, set up a trap, and open the box to see what I got ya! - Aunt Red" Pinky opened the vast box and found the wonderful surprise: Her very own human! Pinky rushed around in circles, screaming with delight. The boy saw no movement and picked up the unusual lego. This boy happened to like pink legos. He sun bleached red ones in the window. Since Aunt Red's box was the boy's home, Pinky was happy to see her. She must have been bleached because now she looked like Pinky herself. Pinky lived here with Aunt Red for the rest of her life(until the boy accidentally let his cat chew her up). And she lived happily ever after.

My Playlist

Okay. Yeah my playlist is full of old music. They are some of the songs I can play on ukulele.
"Puff The Magic Dragon," is really pretty and that's why it's first. If you go to the bottom of my playlist you will find school house rock and The Afters. I could not stop listening to "Yellow Submarine." The Beatles songs on my playlist are probably the best. NEXT TO AT THE HOP!! I love that song!!!! Bah bah bah bah! Mr. Spaceman was my first ukulele song ever. I like that one too. I am playing Mr. Spaceman on piano for my school's talent show. Hey Mr. Spaceman! Please listen to the songs at the bottom of my playlist. Scroll through until you find something you like. I love the song at the bottom! I'm going to list my favorites:

Puff the magic dragon
At the hop
Yellow submarine
Act naturally
Mr. Spaceman
Octopus Garden
Pirates who don't do anthing
Endangered love
You
Interplanet Janet
Billy Joe McGuffrey


Okay those are my favorites. I put some of my songs on because I think the people that read my blog will like to listen to that kind of music instead of listening to another blog's music while reading mine.

This is not a true story!

I was walking down my street when I got some sawdust on my shoe.
I realized only then, that the street was made of it!
I called 911 but when they arrived they said, "Take some gum to chew!"
They saw no emergency, that made me feel like I was made of spit!
I could dig a four foot deep hole in the sawdust.
I was so soft and felt good on my hands.
I needed to dig that hole, I must!
A guy dressed in black jumped out and said, "Give me all your land!"
"I'm sorry sir, I have no land. I can even prove it! Here's my ID and every inch of land I own!"
"Beat it, kid! I don't really care! I put 2 feet of sawdust out as a threat!"
"Yes I could tell. I was surprised. I was blown!"
"You probably like this sawdust, I bet!"
"Oh yes. It's lovely. It's soft and splinters your hands!"
"Anyone else that likes it?"
" Not that I know of, sir! For you, that's probably grand."
"That's right. It is. It's not quite grand, just a little bit."
He pulled off his mask and what I saw surprised me most of all!
"That was a test, you see. We still need to teach you not to talk to strangers!"
"Yes, Uncle Gerald. I felt quite safe. I wasn't scared at all!"
"Just stay away from now on. We want to keep you safe from the dangers!"

So that is what happened one sunny day on my street. The sawdust was only a thin layer and was approved of the people who owned the land it was sprinkled on as long as it was cleaned after half an hour (which was cleaned up in 20 minutes instead).

What should I write about??

I am pretending to be on a tv show and I am showing them around the house and all my clothes and shoes.

Palm Trees Haiku

Touch typing

I took a typing test twice. The first time I took it, it told me I was 7 words per minute. I was typing like how I am supposed to type- touch typing. The second time it said I had 23 words per minute. I was doing what I usually do. I look at the keyboard and look at the screen every few words or so. I am very good at doing the wrong thing.

Falling Up

I never realised it before, but I'm a big fan of Falling Up. Listen to one of their songs. Tell me how you like it.

They call it a "Super Nova"

This is so cool! It belongs in the "Whites" section.

What's happening with my life

My friend and I have each other's email addresses and are writing a book that we will give our teacher tomorrow since Valentine's Day is on a Saturday this year. If you are 'my friend' then you know who you are and I want you to email me quick so I know whether or not to give your name. If you comment on this post, I want you to answer this question-Do you have a best friend? I have a pretty good reason why everybody is going to put "yes." Because Most of you people that read my blog are best friends with each other and with my mom. She has her own blog. Except I think my mom does read my blog. Today I had my first ever chat with my uncle Kevin. I'm pretty sure he has his own blog and reads mine too. If you have my email address, I love getting email from people and I never seem to get any. If you had a blog, what would you call it? If you already have a blog, what is it called? Also answer the question that is possible for you to answer in your comment. 'My Friend' please leave comments cause I want to get your opinion and suggestions. Everybody leave comments, please. If you don't have a gmail account, turn yourself in as blank and be sure to include your name in your comment.
