I was out in the bush, a cold sunny windy day. I was near a river, just sitting down. I would usually be asleep but for some reason, I couldn’t fall asleep. So I walked down to the river hoping there might be a fish I could catch when I saw a strange long brown thing sitting on top of the water. It was a peculiar thing, it was long and brown like a hollow log and had 4 straight long brown sticks that went in and out of the water.

The Students’ Revenge
Alex: Hey Nelson! Do you know what you have to do?
Nelson: Yeah. I know what I have to do. I know my lines.
Fast forward:
Nelson: I know I know it looks pretty bad but it’s not my fault for burning down the school you see Mr Carffathatholis gave me a detention for playing with the Bunsen burner in class. (9th one this year) so I thought I would teach him a lesson for a change. So, you see it wasn’t my fault it was Mr Carffathatholis’ fault. You know he had it coming?….right?

Lie
I got an A on my homework.
Today I got a dog
And today I lied straight to your face.
You see I only tell the truth once a week and only to you.
Oh, and I love your shoes.
And that’s the truth.
I lie once a week
and I always tell the truth
even when I am not supposed to
Did I mention today is opposite day?
Well, I guess I lied.
Oh and I love your dress it looks cute on you.

Imagine
I want to be a formula one driver
I want to go fast in a car
Through the day and night
Race on a track
Faster than Daniel Riccardo
Go hypersonic
Blast
Like a rocket
I want to rush like the wind
On a motorbike
Tilting very low
Knee almost touching the ground
Wearing a white helmet
Then rearing up like an angry horse
Roar
Like a lion
I want to go as fast as the speed of light
In a rocket
Shooting up high
Soaring in the sky
Rushing past the solar system
Boom
Like the Big Bang
What if you could
Run faster than the speed of sound?
You could make a lot of money off that
