On Thursday March 21, 2002 I went to Sudduth Elementary School by bus number 48 early in the morning. It was my first day of school in Mississippi. I did lots of reading. I was happy because I got a few gummy bears for rewards. I got a lollypop from the principal. I went back home by bus as well. Brenda missed the bus home and dad had to bring her home by truck. Brenda made two friends and I made more. Brenda’s principal was a brown man. Brenda went to Ward +Stewart. I went to S.E.E.D.S. (which means Sudduth Elementary Environment Discovery School). I thought S.E.E.D.S. was more interesting then B.E.P.S (Brunswick East Primary School) in Australia.

On Thursday March 28, 2002, I was sick. I had high temperature and cough. I stayed home for seven days. Brenda was sick before me. She stayed home for three days. I had to take some medicine. I slept in my mother’s room and dad had to sleep in mine. I missed my friends at school. I returned to school yesterday. Being sick is fun. I like not look after myself and don’t stay healthy.

Once upon a time there was a girl named Brenda and a girl named Cathy. They lived in a house with their mom and dad and a little teddy bear called Fidashi in an old wooden house. One day they wanted to ho shopping at Wal-Mart. So they went walking to the shuttle stop. On their way they saw two squirrels. When they were at the shuttle stop, Brenda and Cathy were looking for pretty rocks. They found a lot. When the bus came they got on and sat down on the bus seats. The bus had funny things one can hold when the bus turns. It took a while to get to Wal-Mart then they finally got there. It was hot outside but when they went inside it was cool. Cathy got to have a sticker of which looked like this O with a face in it. They bought tons and tons and tons of things and then dad went to pay for all the things. When dad finished paying they went on the bus and got home and they lived happily ever after.

Last night I had a dream. In my dream I went shopping with Fidashi, Brenda, mom, and dad. Fidashi told me she wanted a new jumper I said yes. So I got Fidashi a new jumper. Fidasi said to me again, “I want a teddy bear” I said, “I’m gonna bop you in the nose”. Fidashi cried and I bopped her in the nose. She died.

On 4 May 2002 I went to the Birmingham Zoo in Alabama. It took a long time to get to Alabama. I went there by bus. When I got to Birmingham I threw a penny in the wishing pool. The first animal I saw was a Scarlet Macaw. A Scarlet Macaw is a parrot. Next I saw was a spoonbill. It had a funny beak. I saw American Alligators. Some were babies. Then I saw some birds. They were big and small. There were vultures, peacocks, owls, and kookaburras. After that I went to see the Primates. They were cute. I saw lots of animals that day but I can’t be bothered to write anymore.

Today I am watching TV with Fidashi. Fidashi is lying down flat on her face. Fidashi is cute, soft, smelly, pink, and adorable. Plus Brenda is always stealing Fidashi. I love Fidashi. I like Fidashi because she is pink. Fidashi likes pink and strawberries and cherries and sucky buddy. Fidashi’s favorite animals are squirrels and chipmonks. Her best friends are Goldilocks and Cleopatra. She likes wearing jumpers with scars on them.

In the morning I watched three programs on TV. They were George Shrinks, 7 little monsters, and Marvin the tap dancing horse. My favorite show is George Shrinks. It’s about a boy fixing a big clock. The clock stopped ticking so he climbed down into in the clock. He found a few things such as a toy, a screw, and a bat. He used the screw to make the clock work. Once he finished fixing the clock, he climbed out of the clock. A spider gave him a lift on the way. 7 little monsters is about someone running away from home. The 7 monsters were trying to find the person. They used their pet cow to smell the person out. The cow found the person, but monsters didn’t know the cow found the person, so they called the police. Then the missing person found the monsters. As they were looking for each other and they were all together again. Marvin the tap dancing horse was about was about a flea circus. Someone was jealous of the flea circus so he wanted to catch some fleas. He sent others to catch some fleas, but they didn’t catch any fleas. He went to catch some fleas by himself. He brought a fur coat with him. The fleas jumped on his fur coat and that’s how he got the fleas. He used the fleas to make his own flea circus.

Yesterday, I went to Aiken Village. Brenda and I were playing on the swings. Brenda saw a boy fall off the swings in action. The boy’s mom pushed him off the swings. And I saw a person selling vegetables. There were a few bugs on the vegetables, and I killed a bug. And I also saw a bug going up someone’s shoe. Then Brenda and I went to the Winn Dixie Marketplace. There were several toy dispensers there. I looked at a candy dispenser turned the knob and a piece of candy came out. Then I looked at a necklace dispenser, turned a knob and a necklace came out.

Yesterday I went to Dollar Tree, Wal-Mart, Winn Dixie, Food max, and Kroger. At Dollar Tree Don bought Brenda and me a whoopi cushion. My whoopi cushion was pink, and Brenda’s one was purple. I like whoopi cushions because they make funny noises. When I went to Winn Dixie, I saw lots of dispensers. I turned a knob a few times, and a necklace came out. Brenda didn’t have any luck. In Wal-Mart, Brenda and I were sitting in the bottom of the trolley. I wanted to hug a tiger toy, so we went to the toy department. But when I got there the tiger was gone so I hugged a pony. Then we tried to find mom. We went in a circle three times then mom appeared. We paid at the counter then went home. It was very dark when we finally got home.

Last week I read a book called “Bunnicula”. It’s a rabbit tale of mystery written by Deborah and James Howe. The story starts when two boys went to a Dracula movie, and found a little black and white bunny. They took him home and named him Bunnicula. They had a pet cat called Chester and a pet dog called Harold. Chester thought there was something strange about Bunnicula. For one thing, the black markings looked like a little cape. And second, Chester found white vegetables with drained dry with two little teeth marks in them. So Chester wanted to warn people but no one knew what he was doing. So he was going to get rid of Bunnicula. He put out garlic around Bunnicula’s cage so Bunnicula didn’t run out. Chester read a book about vampires he read about putting a steak on a vampire’s heart. Chester put a steak on Bunnicula’s heart when he was asleep. But Chester got in trouble ruining the family’s dinner. So he had to stay outside all day. When Chester was aloud in, he splashed water on Bunnicula. One day they took Bunnicula to the vet the docter said that Bunnicula was supposed to eat carrot juice. So they took Bunnicula home. So they became friends and lived happily ever after.

Today I am going to Huntsville, Alabama. It took 5 hours to get there. On the way we passed Tuscaloosa, Birmingham, and Decatur. And Brenda got carsick and stomach pain and she cried. She took some little brown pills and seemed a little better. When we arrived at the US space and rocket center, Brenda needed a rest first. So dad and I went into the museum, and got a glow-in-the-dark stamp. Dad and I stuck our heads in the globes and saw many rockets. Then I watched part of the movies while dad looked at the space suits. Then we went outside and dad watched me getting on the Luna Landing Module. It goes up quickly and bounces down a bit, and down, down, down. It goes up again and repeats three times. I rode it many times. And then I went on the G-Force Accelerator. It spins and makes you heavy. Dad came with me on the second time. But dad experienced the heaviness and didn’t want to do it again. Then Brenda and mom came along and we rode the G-Force Accelerator together. Mom didn’t want to ride it again because felt like dad.

                           

Then we got back inside and I waited for the Mars Mission. When I got in there was a movie inside. I got zapped into a Martian roller coaster. It felt I was really in a Martian roller coaster. After that we searched for a hotel. We stayed at Kings Inn for the night. The next morning I got worried because nearly ran out of gas. We finally bought some gas and drove back to Starkville straight away. It was a really tiring trip but really fun.
