My Dice Story

The Fame, Fortune, and Friend


            Oh my gosh! First my characters name is Stephanie. She has performance tomorrow at nine. It’s at a huge park that she fortunately forgot the name it’s like Cater-er-er something. It get’s really dark there thankful for the lights, she hopes. She hates the dark. Forgetting to mention that it’s a pirate dress up so everyone one will be.

            She is 19 and taking college courses at Stanford California. She has a minute younger brother. He is tall blonde and he is a pointy nose. His name is Seth. You can’t ever split them apart. Maybe a month or two but no longer than that. Her parents live back in Nebraska.

            “Hey, Seth.” She wanted to ask him to come to her concert.
            “Yeah?” He asked like he wasn’t doing anything like he was but he has always been that way.
            “You gunna come tonight?”
            “Yeah I’m going with my friend Michael.”
            “Who?”  They argued a little.
            “That guy that was in love with you.”
            “Ok because I’m not famous and not everyone is in love me. None of your friends are.” It is really sad that she’s so sarcastic sometimes her friends can’t tell apart when she talks.
            Now she’s getting her costume with her best friend Kira. Kira and her are close but not like Seth and Stephanie. With the costume she got a paper, it had some strange writing on it so she shoved it in her pocket. Her costume was brown with a black eye patch.

            So she’s getting ready on stage, adrenaline moving through her so fast, heart pounding. Suddenly she hears the announcer say “Ladies and gentlemen, Stephanie Myer!”
            Her heart still pounding, as she’setting ready to sing. “BOOM” something really hard hit her in the head.
She saw stars and she dropped to the ground.
            “OUCH” somebody yelled below her. The paper in her pocket fell on the ground. He looked like a real pirate. “What is this?” He asked like he knew what it was. “You have to go on this trip and help me find this. I’ll write it in English so you can understand and be a navigator to find this treasure! PURE GOLD. We have to get there by tomorrow morning.”
            “Wait where am I first?”
            “You are in the forest of no not leave trees! There is one tree that isn’t though. We need to get there to get the treasure and dig under it.”
            “So where am I sleeping?” She was worried.
            “Over my shoulder or your not.” He was very demanding.
            “RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN!”
            “What is that and are you are a real pirate?”
            “I’ll tell you later not the time to ask.” We finally got away.

            “Yuppp. I sure am.” He was so sure like when you know you want to ride the new roller coaster AGAIN.

            “So. That is really weird. Am I in the same time like as in 2010?
            “Yeah, but I’m not in the right time.” He sounded like he knew the place though.
            “So what was that thing anyway?”
            “It was an ancient pirate eating bear. Some things got through that we all didn’t want to.”
            “Ok now we NEED to get to that tree.” She was furious.
            “It says go this way….” He ran into a tree.
            “LOOK. That tree has no leaves. It’s a conifer.”
            “You are a smart girl and I was just testing you to see if that you knew. You did, what do I know?”
            “Now I forgot to ask why you have that shovel but now I know.”
            “Alright little lady you need to start digging.” She was angry with that.
            “What about you look like you can lose a few pounds? Besides you’re the guy and I’m the girl. You deserve it.” He groaned like she had won the battle.
            “I..I… think I hit something. Help me pull.” It was so hard to pull but she knew it was it because she had a hold of a handle. UP and out it goes.
            “OPEN IT” He yelled. She pried it open with a stick. It had a pair of binoculars in it. She was disappointed but he seemed to like it.
She woke up. “Sissy.”
            “What happened?”
            “You got knocked out!”
            “What hit me?” She felt her head and it had a big bump.
            “Something hard enough that we don’t need to mention.” Seth was very helpful to her.
            “Now I know when I meet a real pirate it is so fake!”

NO MEDIA WEEK WAS HARD!

Over the no media week I went to Emma's and we played card games, board games, messed with our hair, beaded, went to the mall, read books, and we went for bike rides, and walks. We did that in three days.
Then i went home and my brother and his friends were playing video games so that counted as my tv because watched them play for a long time. Then I got out my book and read for a long time. Next they decided to go play basketball at the park so I went and played that. No one blockced me because i was so small so I got all the points. I really didn't care. Thats how we won. It was so long. I did the same thing for the rest of the time excpt for the watching them play video games. That's about it. Oh yeah and I played a gamed called dice which is really fun.

Thanksgiving To Me Is.......................................

           To me Thanksgiving is eating with friends and family. It is nice to go eat with family and see family members that you haven't seen in a loooooooooooong time. Or even when you live with them. It is good to share what you are thankful for why you are thankful for it. I shared that I'm thankful for famly that lves me because everyone needs it. Your family would be greatful that you said that.

             Thanksgiving to me is also being thankful for people and what they do for you. Say if you need food and nobody knows abouut it, you think the closest people to you do know and give you food. You can also make poeple be thankful for you which is one of the best feelings. You can donate to a charity or give cards and tell people that you are thankful for them.

               It is also spending time with them. If you have a brother or sister be thankful they are here. You never know when they might go away. If you aren't close to them, that is something you need to do. If you are spending time is a chance to get close to them. You can play card games, board games, or even just talk about things that make you trust them more. BE THANKFUL FOR SIBLINGS!
