Cricket recount
27/10/17
A bad start
It was very challenging having to play cricket on the courts on a very hot day with room 5 and Sahl.
I got to the courts thinking what it would be like since that was going to be my first time.
While I was thinking I bumped into something and tripped. Tripping over a cricket ball was not what I expected. The game hadn't even started and I was already having a bad start.
I got up from the surface and saw my sweat drying up as I thought it was my blood. "Ew, just disgusting", I wiped my wet forehead. "Bahahahahaha" I laughed as I noticed it wasn't blood.
Sahl walked in the courts seeing room 5 going wild like hungry gorillas. I laughed my head off.
"Room 5, stop this right now!!" Mrs Middleton shouted. I watched some of the girls laughing because I got scared. I rolled my eyes and giggled a little.
My day has already been ruined and we didn't even start the game like I said.
I didn't want to play anymore. What a disaster I thought. I never want to experience a day like this again. I felt annoyed. Hopefully next time this won't happen.

Night of the living dummy 2
What the story was about.
Amy's mom and dad did not believe her that Slappy (Dummy) was alive and also evil. Amy wanted to prove it with her sister Sara. At night Slappy walked in to Sara's room with Amy following him. Sara was awake, and their parents were hiding in Sara's closet to see if they were telling the truth about Slappy. Dennis struck a big slap across Slappy as Amy's parents came out of the closet.

Amy and her family has family sharing nights every Thursday. The bad thing about family sharing night is that the family always ends up fighting or Amy just ends up being jealous of Sara. Sara is her older sister which is very talented because of her art. Jed, her brother which is the silly one who always jokes around. Amy hates family sharing nights and thought of changing the name to Thursday family fighting night!
