The Best Summer

the best summer I had was the summer of 7th grade. My first your of middle school had just ended and I was ready to go to a summer program that my mom signed me up for. Me , my cousins and a close friend would all be going together. I didn't know what we were gonna be doing at the program but I knew it would be fun with them. The program was far away at a college, we had choices of the things we wanted to do. I chose to make an underwater robot. I developed an interest in engineering and computers.

Girl Stolen by: April Henry

Cheyenne  Wilder is sick and waiting, for her step mom in her car, to come back from the pharmacy with her medication. While she is sleeping she realizes that someone other than her step mom has gotten into the car and drove off. Griffin, the guy who stole the car, takes it back to his house that him, his dad, and two of his dads workers are at. While Cheyenne is in the house tied up she try's to get alone do she can find a weapon to fight back. But Griffin and his colleagues and dad find out that Cheyenne is the daughter of the Nike president. Read the book to find out if she escapes or not.

This book was really intense because there was moments were you just done want to stop reading especially when a big turn in the book happens. This book is filled with twists and turns and cliff hangers. It pulls you and and won't let you go. The author also goes into a lot of detail of how, because Cheyenne is blink, she uses different parts of her body for different functions.

The 8th Grade School Year

i think that my eighth grade year was really fun! It's cool to know that everyone knows, each other and new friendships have developed over the years. Many people have changed over the years and the shortest kids in sixth grade are the tallest ones now. I used to think all of those movies about kids in middle school would be like actual middle school but I think that we are crazier. We don't throw toilet paper around the school but we are super loud. I think we are craziest school in Berwyn. But when you're in 8th grade you're loud because you're having fun. I think that these past 3 years of my life will be very memorable.

NO NOT SNAKES!!

One my biggest fears is being close to a snake. They just freak me out. I don't like it when in tv shows they show like close ups of snakes hissing or like when they hunt down there prey because it's just scary how terrifying they look. And their eyes just make them even more scary. I'm not scared of boa constrictor because those just wrap around you and they are less likely to bite you but the small ones seem more vicious. I think that the scariest snake in the world is the rattle snake because the rattle taunts the prey. I think that if I ever get close to a snake I will feel very vulnerable because I feel like it would bite me.

Back to the bottom

Here we are almost the end of 8th grade. Sounds fun right? Well it's kind of scary. Going to a new school where we go from the oldest to the youngest. But I'm not really thinking about it to much. I know it won't be exactly the same as middle school but I'm not really expecting anything. I think that for a few weeks I'll have to be doing high school solo because all of my good friends are going too different schools. But I think that I should just enjoy this last month as much as I can.
