Story changer



Story: the Hunger Game
Conflict
Katniss and Peta are fighting to the death with 12 other districts. Katniss doesn’t know it but Peta likes Katniss a little and Katniss and Peta live in the same district. Katniss finds that out half way through the games, she also liked him back. Katniss has to chose between someone she loves and her own life. This reminds me a lot of war. If one of you fellow soldiers get wounded in war will you go out there and get shot your self, or are you going to let him suffer? It's a hard decision to make, but one has to be made.     

Resolution
Katniss and Peta are the last two people alive and Katniss didn’t want to give up Peta or her own life. So she comes up with an idea for both her and Peta to eat these poisonous berries at the same time so they didn’t have a winner of the Hunger Games . But right before they put the berries in their mouth the head person of the hunger game came on the loud speaker and said that there could be two winners of the hunger games. This reminds me of a lot of different thing. One that comes to mind the fastest is a little kid show that my sister watches. In one episode the family has to take down the tree house that is in their back yard. But the oldest boy (P.j) and the oldest girl (Tedy) decide to rebel and try to keep the tree house. In the end they do get to keep the tree house.

The Move

Author's Note: this story is about how moving can be a life changing event, for the better or the worse. It just depends on what you do with it.



When your mom and dad say, “We’re thinking about moving”, It can be exciting and a little bit scary. It can be exciting because you get a whole new view and it’s just something different, yet moving can also be scary if you move to a new school or even a new state. Thank goodness for me  when my parents said, “We’re thinking about moving”, but I was staying in the same area. My fear about moving to a new school didn’t come true because  I was just moving to a different house. Moving can be a life changing experience for the good or the bad, it just depends on what you do with it.

The biggest emotion when moving is excitement. The definite most exciting part when moving is when you first step inside the house and you can almost smell the newness. You can’t help but to smile when you get the full tour of the house. In my case it’s hard not to bicker with my sister about which room I want, but as smart as my parents are they told us just to keep our game faces on and wait until the realtor was gone the we could start our little war.

Yes there are a lot of exciting things, but on the other hand there are some scary things. In one case if you move to a new school you have to start a new friendships with new people and that isn’t always the easiest thing to do. In another case if you move let’s say from Wisconsin to somewhere down south where they have accents you could sound funny to them. One thing I think that really is hard about moving to a different state is adapting to the new weather. If you move from Florida to Wisconsin the winters are going to seem like you are in Alaska.

Over all moving is a very fun experience, if your moving 5 minutes away or your moving 5 hours away it’s still fun. Yes it can take a month or 2 to move but it’s worth it in the end. Even if you do move to a new school or a new state you will eventually find someone that wants to be friends with you, it’s bound to happen. Those are the reasons I think move is a life changing experience.

My 95 yard run

Authors note: this is a story about my 95 yard interception. it was a very exciting and thrilling. i'm hoping to have another day like that this year.


You know every once in a while, when the planets align just right and everything goes just right for you, just for one day everything is perfect? Well this was one of those days for me. Once I put that helmet and shoulder pads on I knew it was game time, there was no turning back now. Us the Pewaukee Pirates had the same record as Mukwonago white,0-4. Both teams were hunting for a win. Mukwonago was at the 10 yard line and pushing. It was the 4th quarter and not much time left one the clock. “Hut Hut…..Hike” Mukwonago’s quarterback called out. He dropped back for a pass and I knew it was my time to shine, and that is where my story begins.   

As the ball was snaped my line a sight was blocked by red and white jerseys and all of a sudden I see an arm cock back with the ball. The ball came hurdling towards me and as I got the ball I thought to myself “how am I going to get out of this?” All of a sudden I see Conner come out of no where and take down the first guy with a spine crushing blow. I went right in the hole that he just cleared from me. After I was out of traffic it was all me and all I could hear was the click clack of my shoulder pads hitting each other with every step I take “click clack click clack click clack” and the noise of my helmet scraping against my head “srich scratch srich scratch ” and my concise screaming “GO GO GO GO!!!!!”.

Running 95 yards seems like an eternity but Once I take that first step in the end zone I am overwhelmed with joy I felt as if my body was going to explode.  I turn around to see a swarm of red jerseys sprinting toward me and jumping up and down and I hear the announcer “AND RYAN VAN WILLIGEN INTERSEPS THE BALL RUNS 95 YARDS FOR A PIRATE TOUCH DOWN!!!!”. I broke into the biggest smile of my life.

We went on to beat Mukwonago 6-0 but I’m still not sure what happened that day but that ball looked like a duck that just got shot out of the sky. It was the ugliest pass I’ve ever seen and as the ball was headed my way. I remember my coach say “if you ever get the ball run like you stole it” and that’s just what I did, once I felt the thud of the ball hit my chest I was gone. That day was one of the best days of my life. I don’t remember o whole lot from that day but what I do know is that I’ve never ever before been that happy and excited at the same time. That day was a magical day. I hope to have another one of those day’s this year.

football

Have you ever played a sport or done something so amazing that you would be crushed if you couldn’t play or do it? Well that how I feel about football. Football is the best sport in the world. It is very easy to play and it is a good way to learn how to work as a team. The only thing is that could be dangerous. You are most likely to get a concussion or two while playing football, not in one game but over a period of time. But that’s the only down side to playing football. Otherwise it is such a fun sport.

Ponies

 Authors note: This is a story about why i like ponies.
Ponies, there is so many thing to write about. they are such a loving animal. You can ride them and play with them and if you have a little girl or boy it is entertainment for them. and they are not to hard to take care of some food and water and a place to sleep is all they need. But the only down side is you have is picking up their messes and the smell isn't to great. But overall they are a very great pet.

Lottery

Authors note: This is about what i think about the lottery.
lotteries can change your life and ruin them if not careful. You can win 1,000,000 dollars but you could lose how many dollars you spend on it. And it is very unlikely you will win unless you do win. But i just don't like when you have a winning card and then it just turns out you win like 17 dollars. The people who receive the money from the lottery make a lot of money.
