Secret shadow

Can you guess this shadow?




Here's a clue: It has something to do with babies.




It is kind of difficult it took me time to figure out the photo I took!

The Potion of Obedience

Suddenly, the door sprang open and the mischievious niece ran out; Winnie and I followed her. "Wait, it's not poison; it's just a bottle of potion to make you into a nice person!" I yelled loudly. "I don't care! Why do you want to experiment the potion on me?" the niece yelled back. "It is because you are mischievious! You are very different, in a bad way," Winnie said.

Winnie and I were very tired; we collapsed on the ground. "Where are we?" I asked curiously. "MOVE! There's a truck coming this way," Winnie shouted in my ear. As I jumped out of the truck's way, I saw the niece's beady eyes hiding behind a tree. I grabbed her and tied her on the tree. When I poured the potion into her mouth, she suddenly turned into an obidient monkey.

Scared of what had just happened, we called 999 and took the niece to the doctors. The doctor said, "are you crazy? why did you turn her into a moneky?" "I didn't mean to, I just wanted to help her become a better person." "Well, I suppose we may have put in some inappropriate ingredients." We put in two apples, three bananas, one spider and some chocolate into the potion. The doctor and I had an argument about the potion for about an hour. The doctor finally gave the antidote to the niece and she turned back to her mischievious self again.

A Fun Weekend

This weekend I went to stay at my friend’s house for a sleep over. It was a very different experience because we went to visit the military base to see a movie and watch a baseball game. Even though I wasn’t feeling well, I was persistent because I was filled with excitement.

We were very patient watching the advertisement before the magnificent movie commenced.

After the movie was finished we proceeded to watch a baseball game which was a different type of accompaniment event to what I am used to.

After that we all went home to my friend’s house and her mum told us, we have to write our short story and make some different sentences in our stories on what we had done during the day.

The Advertisement

On television today, I watched an advertisement about how to make a trail mix. It was a magnificent recipe, using delicious and different ingredients. Very experienced movie-makers made the advertisement. But I heard that before they made the ad, they had to experiment with the trail mix. They were very intelligent and had a sufficient mix of flavors in the recipe. After seeing the ad, I raced into the kitchen and started mixing, pouring, pounding and then I ate my trail mix.

Swimming On Sunday

Today I went swimming in the pool at the British Embassy and played with Gabby and Rebecca , my friends, who live there. There was a lot of excitement as we kept on falling of our magificent new, rubber rings that we bought earlier this morning. I also did an independent activity in the water. I did two laps of each of these different strokes butterfly, backstroke, breststroke and freestyle. We did lots of jumping and diving in the deep end of the pool and had lots of fun. However, at the end me and my dad an argument because I did not want to get out of the swimming pool although I was tired and cold.
