I wrote this play based off my Chris and Pat story. It was pretty cool to see how a couple of changes can take a useless piece, into a nice visual and soon to be published play. Thank all of you for the views it means a lot. Love you guys




Tooth Fairy
Characters
Chris, is a kindergarten heart breaker. He has big green eyes, short blonde hair and has never lost a tooth before. Chris bases most of what he knows off what he hears from his brother the fifth grader.
Pat, is a year older. He has brown eyes and brown hair. Pat is only at Chris’s house because their moms are best friends. Pat thinks he is a lot smarter than Chris and pat hates being wrong
Ben, is a fifth grader. He is Chris’s older brother and basically taught him everything he knows. He hates when pat comes over because they always end up fighting. But tolerates it because he gets money to babysit.

I originality wrote this in class. We were supposed to write about to people having a pointless argument. So I choose to write about the tooth fairy.


Tooth Fairy

 Chris and Pat sat there watching Saturday morning cartoons and eating massive bowls of coco puffs. Chris is in kindergarten. He’s never lost a tooth before and had based most of what he knows off what he hears from the boys on the playground. Pat is a year older. He loves chocolate milk and his favorite animal is a squirrel. He has a 12 year old brother named ben.

“Ow my tooth!” He screamed in pain. “It fell out; quick get me some paper towels”

“No problem Pat.”

“Ewe bloods gross.”

“Well at least you’ll wake up with two dollars under your pillow”

“What are you stupid?” He snarled at Chris. “Even you should know she only leaves toothpaste under your pillow”

“WHAT! Are you talking about?”

“What do you mean?”

“First off, she is a boy and second why would a fairy have toothpaste?”

“Why would a boy be a fairy?”

“Shut up I want to go home!”

“Mommas boy! Mommas boy!”

“AHHHHHHHH” as cries as he tackles Pat

The boys roll around for a bit. Until ben pulls them apart

“Stop!” ben yelled “I’ve been listening to you guys all day. And your both wrong, the tooth fairy is fake it’s just as trick moms and dads pull on little boys who don’t know any better. ”


This Memoir I wrote about buying new shoes. I love the smell of a new pair so much. That i wrote a poem about it. For me it’s just one of those things that can turn a bad day into a great day, and everyone needs a pair.

First and Favorite

When I got my first pair
They made feel taller than a grizzly bear
Faster than a snail
I was so darn happy
They were so hip and snappy
 Worth so much to me I’d never share

Couple months later the              
white turned yellow
Dirt and holes all around
every time I look down
It always left me with a frown                                                                                                                                  
This cruel world is unfair
But Moms didn't care
I needed new ones
I pleaded for new ones

Till the day
She says yes
I got any pair I wanted
I were so blessed
Running up and down the aisles
Is the part I love the best

But who would've guessed?
I picked the same pair with the bright white leather
and deep forest green accents
all because of the new show scent

I open my Eyes with glee
as I flip the shoe over
the best thing ever
 Happened to me
an orange tag greeted me
Smiling Saying buy one get one free


This poem is about a man explaining to his boss Blaine. Why it is never his fault he's late. And that time is out to get him. But in reality he's lazy and won’t take the blame. For his own mistakes


Time

Time, it is nothing but a grind,
And it seems like every day
 Time can never wait
To make me late,
But I’ll tell you what
It’s probably fate,
Because you see
It is never my fault
Like today
The blame is on my dog,
He got lost in the fog
While we walked to the vet
 And there’s a pretty good bet
That someone took him
I remember his name was Jim
I stole his cat once it was dim
And I thought it was Kim
That’s my dog’s name
And anyway
Sorry Blaine  
But we both know who’s to blame 

I wrote this story about a boy named Evan. I met through school He’s in the first grade and one day he took a field trip to our school. Then we sat down and he told me all about his life. Using the things he told me I conducted this sweet story. 


Evan and the Helpful Hippo


Evan asked with a shining morning face, “Grandma, can we get a dog?”
“No honey, that's a lot of work you’re just not old enough.”

“Everyone says I'm not old enough. I wish there was a way I could show Grandma and the world how grown up I really am,” he said to his favorite hippopotamus toy.
“You’re right! Hippo I’ll get a job, that’s perfect!”
“Hey, Grandma is there any work I can do around the house, so I can show you I’m grown up enough for a dog and maybe earn a little money?”
“Yea, you can finish painting this shed for me. You have until tomorrow night to finish, and if you succeed I'll consider getting you that dog.”
“Thanks, Grandma.”
“This is boring,” Evan squawked after he had been hard at work painting for some time. “I wonder what's inside this shed. Sweet! There is an episode of Thomas and Friends playing, my favorite. But Hippo,  you’re right, I do need to paint this shed so I'll only watch two episodes then I’ll go back out and finish.”
“Morning Grandma. Is it ok if I get an early start at work?”
“Yeah sure, but remember I need it done by 8:00 pm tonight, or the paint won’t be dry in time for book club.”’
“No problem, Grandma. I won’t let you down.”
2 hours later Evan realized that he had bitten off way more than he could chew and was never going to get this done in time for Grandma and worst of all he would never get a dog. Until...
“I can help you,” said an unfamiliar voice.
“Who is there?”
"It's me, silly, your toy hippo.”
“You can talk?”
“Yes, but not just that, I can get big too.”
“Well, I really don't want to let Grandma down, Hippo. Would you paint the rest of the house for me? So I can take a break?”
“Sure! Anything for my best friend.”
After Hippo finished the paint job,  Evan jumped on his back. Realizing that the Hippo would do anything for him, Evan got greedy. First he begged Hippo for the completion of his homework, then he got Hippo to make him a sandwich because he was hungry. Next he had Hippo do the dishes because he became lazy. After, he had poor Hippo climb a tree to recover his frisbee because he became lazier, Evan didn’t even say please or thank you. Hippo became weak and asked Evan for a nap. While he slept, Evan thought about how mean he was to Hippo. Suddenly, he heard something by the door.
“Hey Evan, the shed looks great!” Grandma said walking by the window. “Good work today! Here's 5 dollars!  And about the dog...”
“No, Grandma, I can’t take your money. It wasn't me who did all the errands today, it was Hippo and after he painted, I made him do all my chores for me. I acted like a child today and maybe you are right, maybe I'm not old enough for a dog,” he cried.
“Evan, don’t be so down on yourself! You don't think I know Hippo did all the work? I was watching you all day, and this was a test. But you passed by telling me the truth, and it really does show that you’re old enough for a dog.”
“No thanks, Grandma!”  Evan smiled. “Who needs a dog when you got the worlds best toy hippo.”


      This poem is called 11 ways of looking at a shoe. It's written as if Wallace Stevens wrote it. And each numbered stanza is a different style of writing. Their based off the poem by Wallace called 11 ways of looking at a black bird. This a great descriptive writing

11 Ways of Looking at a shoe

       I.          1   Among the 3 billion in the US
Each and every person has
A pair of shoes
    II.         2   Wear them anywhere, shoes
Bring me forth the path ahead
 III.          3  The Shoes  marched in unison
Like a small stampede
 IV.       4     An aglet and an aglet are one
Together they form a bow
    V.      5      I do not know which I prefer
The beauty of a deadstock pair
Or the exquisiteness of it on my feet

 VI.         6   The non-descriptive  man took off the pair
He had the smile of a lizard
And the walk of snail
He set them to fire As if he was a wizard
VII.       7     Jordan has 6 rings
Moses wrote the 10 commandments
Jordan wore the best shoes
Moses split the red sea
VIII.   8        As you listen to your song
Your feet tap along
You dance to the beat
Like the shoes on your feet
 IX.        9    A rectangle top
A half circle toe
And the stars on the bottom
Keeps the shoe shine and glow
    X.        10    The shoes stomped louder than Zeus’s thunder
It makes you ponder
Who is really is control
 XI.       11     That  fragile glass slipper glistening  In the clocks light
As it strikes midnight Cinderella is frantic
A shoe determines the fate of the prince and princess
As they both await for one another

Always, Smiling in the Worst Situations


This is my 6 word memoir. I picked these words because I've always been the class clown. And i never took life to serious. I feel like some people try too hard and need a chill pill. Then again laughter is the best medicine.
