Boarding School

Once there was 7 kids that went to a boarding school. They were best friends. Until one day they had to go to *don don dooonnn* boarding school. Their parents were going to separate them. They begged their parents not to make them go, but the parents continued to say, "No, you have to go." The next day they were to report to meet at the near by park. Now they had all said goodbye and were on their way to boarding school on a bus. They were looking out the window at their parents waving goodbye. In one hour they were there. When they got off the bus they got their luggage and followed the counselor to the Multi Purpose room which wasn't much of a Multi Purpose room. It was pretty much just a sort of hallway with rooms, bathrooms, showers, and a place to eat. So, it was a place where you had everything you needed in one building. Outside was a broken sign that read "Camp Wannacry". Camp Wannacry was a camp for girls. Back in the hallway the counselor barked after them to stand and read their book. While they were reading the other workers were discussing how great the prank their parents pulled on them was. The next day they had to do some things they regretted ever doing. After that they all went in for an announcement. At the announcement they told them the prank their parents pulled on them. On their way home they wondered why their parents did this. Most of them knew why. Most of them pranked their parents and their parents wanted to get payback. In the end they learned not to prank their parents anymore.

Fat boy

There are many reasons why the boy has a popcorn hat on his head. His mother went out to Costco to buy some food. This boy was an only child and his dad had died from when a meteor hit him. The boy's name was Daniel. Their house was about 30 miles away from Costco. The boy had gotten hungry and started searching the fridge to look for something to eat. He had found some popping corn in a bucket in the pantry. He popped it and ate it. He was still hungry so he went to find something else to eat. He found a few bags of chocolate and a couple bags of Hot Cheetos. He ate a bag of Hot Cheetos followed by two bags of chocolate. By the time he ate the last bag of Hot Cheetos his mom came back hom with groceries. He was lucky he had cleaned up his mess. He told his mom he didn't feel so good. His mom looked into the garbage and said,"That's what you get for eating to much."

Stuck in the mud

Timmy was on his way to the campsite, when a drunk driver was swirving. Timmy got startled and drove off the road. It just so happened it rained just before he left home. Now he was stuck in the mud. He knew he should've called the police to report the drunk driver, at that moment he realized, he had no service! He went back to the street to try to wave somebody off but no one would stop and help him get his car out of the mud. Finally someone stopped and helped him after 1 hour. Timmy thanked the person who helped him and they were both on their way.

King Tut, King Ramses 2, and Alexander the Great

Have you ever wondered what happened to King Tut, Ramses the 2, and Alexander the Great? Well, this research happens to be all about them. These paragraphs contain important facts about King Tut, Ramses 2, and Alexander the Great. They were great Pharaohs. First is King Tut.
King Tut -
Akhenaton (King Tut's father) died, making his 9-year-old son (Tutankhaton) the king. He then went through a lot of work and studying. He soon changed his name to Tutankhamen, meaning "Living image of Amon". He then died when he was 18. Nobody knows how he died. He was buried in a solid-gold coffin in a tomb filled with gold and jewels. He is famous for what was found in his tomb. What was found in his tomb was gold and jewelry. His tomb was found by Howard Carter in 1922. The Pharaoh that came after him married the widow of King Tut. For a very long time nobody knew how he died.
King Ramses 2-
Ramses 2 completed and built a lot of things during his lifetime. He completed a hall at Karnak. He continued work on the temple built by Seti 1 at Abydos. Both of them were incomplete at the latter's (meaning the person who started it, Seti 1) death. He completed his father's funerary temple. He built one for himself and called it Ramessum. In Abydos he built his own temple not that far from his father's. In Nubia he built no fewer than 6 temples. Two carved out of a cliffside. (The two larger ones built by Seti 1.) The last two due to Ramses. Virtually nothing is known about his personal life. His wife was Nefertari. His family consisted of 100 children. The best picture of him is him as a young man. His mummy is preserved in a mausoleum at Cairo. Ramses 2 was a good soldier. He was a popular king. He married the daughter of the Hittite King. He attacked his enemies such as the Libyans and the Nubians. He was the third king of the nine tenth dynasty. In building all those temples it was obvious he wanted to leave a reminder of his strength and wealth.
Alexander the Great-
Alexander's father was the son of Philip the 2. Philip gained control of most of the Greek peninsula. He learned how to be a great warrior from his father. They say he slept with a dagger and a copy of Homer's Iliad. Alexander's father wanted to rule all the countries. Alexander conquered part of the Persian empire. He was 20 years old when he became king of Macedonia. He also gained control of Egypt and made it part of the Greek Empire. His general, Ptolemy took control of Egypt. Egypt was in Greek hands until the Romans conquered Egypt. The Egyptians began to Replace their religion with Christian belief. Trouble in his own land delayed his plans. Neighboring people began to fight with his army. Someone started a rumor that Alexander had died. His empire started to fight. When Alexander got back his empire was fighting. He ended the fight very quickly. He had freed the Greek from under Persian control. They were forced to accept Alexander as their new ruler. As his empire grew he named a lot of his cities Alexandria after himself. His empire learned to speak and worship Greek gods. He went to India where he had a battle with Porus (an Indian king). When Porus got wounded and surrendered. Alexander let him continue ruling. When Alexander returned to Babylon he got a mysterious disease. A few days with that disease he died. After his death, his empire split up. Nobody was as good a leader as him . After his death, many of his people went to Italy.
In the end they all died a mysterious death. Nobody knew how they had died for a very long time. In the end someone else married their wives. They all became Pharaohs at a young age.
In the end they were great pharaohs. What they did made Egypt a better country. In Alexander's case the whole world. They were great rulers. They had all died a mysterious death. Today we still enjoy what they have found in their tombs.

Jesse Owens

Jesse Owens is a great example of perseverance for many reasons. One way he showed perseverance was when his mom had to cut the lump out with a hot kitchen knife. Another way is he suffered through pneumonia.Another way Jesse Owens persevered was when people were predjudice and African Americans weren't treated fairly. I learned one thing about Jessie Owens and that is he persevered a lot through out his life.

Gibson Ranch

During my vacation I went with my church to Gibson Ranch. At Gibson Ranch I played a lot of games. You could play volleyball, soccer, football, or ping-pong. My brother went to pet horses and sheep near by. He even could ride one if he wanted to, but he didn't' . My cousins Alex and Gaby came along also. We had lots of fun. Later on my sisters Bianca and Elizabeth came with my aunt and uncle. My cousin Fred came also. I came with my uncle and got to leave with him too as soon as there wasn't very many people. Until then I played mostly volleyball. I knew I wasn't very good but I tried and got better at it. Later on I relaxed a bit and ate a hot dog. After that I went and watched my uncles and sunday school teachers play volleyball. One of my sunday school teachers was on my uncles team. My uncles were on the same team. After that game two of my sunday school teachers asked me to play a game with them and I didn't. The game was we would stand in a circle and it was plating playing volleyball but without a net and we were standing in a circle. I had a lot of fun playing with them. They are really nice to me and I treat them the same way they treat me. I love to learn what they are supposed to teach me. Anyway after that I played ping-pong. A lot of people watched people who wanted to play play. A couple of hours watching we finally went home. Today was also my birthday (September 19, 2006) . I hope it goes well after school.

" On top of the World "

In the story " On top of the World " , Hillary and Norgay faced many obstacles. One obstacle is when it was -27 degrees Fahrenheit. It was an obstacle because they had to wear about three layers of clothing. Other obstacles were when they ate the last dates, apricots, sardines, and biscuits. It was an obstacle because it was their last food supply. Another obstacle was there wasn't that much air to breathe in and there wasn't much time. That was an obstacle because they had to use oxygen . The fourth obstacle was when they had to climb a 40 ft. rock to get to the top. Those were hard obstacles they had to go through.
