Stories Time Forgot 4

-

Crash! Everyone froze. I cringed. Why do metal food trays have to be so loud? Miss Bell, the principal, burst through the cafeteria doors.”What happened!? Who made this mess!?” Every hand was pointing at me.”Ronald! You clean this up right now!” She said, glaring. I sighed and started mopping up A mix of peanut butter and mashed potatoes. Once Miss Bell was gone, everyone burst out in giggles and whispers. I felt my ears turn red and I scrubbed harder. When I finally finished, It was time for classes again. I groaned and grabbed my bag for math. When I got to my classroom, my teacher, Miss Shanen, was waiting for me at the door. “Ronald, you are late again. Please give me homework and get ready for our quiz.” She said, closing the door behind me. I reached inside my bag, but it wasn't there! I quickly scanned the classroom, and there was Cooper, grinning smugly. “Well, Where is it?” she asked impatiently.
“Um…” I looked around for help, but everyone pretended to be busy studying. “My dog ate it?” I answered sheepishly. The class roared with laughter. Miss Shanen was not amused.

    I love the pictures you choose for your posts. They pull the stories together so well. I can feel his embarrassment and the difficulty of his situation because you describe it so well.

Cats

  You know what's funny?  About 50%* of all the stories I have written or thought of are about cats. And 20%* at least have cats in them. That only leaves 30%* for normal non-cat stories. 30%!!* I don't have any cats!! I have been scratched by a cat!!! I am allergic to cats!!! So why do I write so much about cats?  I'm glad you asked. 😉 I have no idea. 😅 Maybe since I don't have a cat and I don't know what it's like to have to clean out a little box and bathe a clawed ball of fury, Maybe I think that cats are just cute and perfect in every way? Maybe. Here's something to think about; When I was little (like, maybe 8) I wrote (or drew. mostly drew :) a story about a dog who was a sheriff trying to catch this cat who was a thief. in the end they fell in love, so no harm no foul and no went to jail. (mostly because you found out that she only stole socks and I guess there are no laws about stealing those) But the funny thing is, by the end of the story, the d...

Long Road Home

-
I'm driving down this small road in the middle of a beautiful forest not knowing where I'm going, but not really caring anyway. All I know is I'm going somewhere and whatever happens I'm having fun. But then My phone pings. The Google Map app floods the screen. "I see that the route you're on now is slow," Google Map says. "But I have found a much better and more efficient route for you to take. Would you like to continue?" Faster is better, right? I start to wonder if I should try something bigger than my little road. Diving in the woods had been fine for so long, I wonder what this new path will be like. "Sure," I say, excitedly pressing "continue".  The directions veer me off my path. There's no turning back now.  The road takes me to a wide speedy highway where I get bumped along by car after car, each clearly going big places. And there are so many places to go now, exits right and left.  Which one is  my exit? Did I ...

Adventures on Cataroo Island Entry 0.1

-
  Entry 0.1 Hello my fellow explorer! This is the first entry in my Private Adventure log book.  Or really I should say the last. But if I put this at the back of the book that wouldn’t make much sense, and you need to read the start to understand the end. Do you see? I am the only one who has permission to look inside this book. So unless you are me (which I know you are not because you are you) you cannot continue reading my extraordinary accounts of my adventures on Cataroo Island. So no matter how much you want to know about what happened to Cataroo Island, rules are rules. Good day. … You’re still reading, aren't you? Fine. I guess since I don’t think you would even listen to me if I said otherwise, You have permission to read on.  BUT! Before you continue, you must promise three things; One, for the safety of Cataroo Island, you will not ever, under any circumstances, share this account with anyone! (Besides trusted friends and relatives if you must) Two, you will t...
