Ghostly Alpaca

Authors Note: This is a Writing piece using a series of words that were given to us in a Literature group meeting last week. It may not make perfect sense but it was fun. The words that were given are highlighted. 

She was biking down a street in New York. She was largely interested in Ghostly appearances. She figured that New York would be a great place to find some haunted houses. She got back to her apartment and walked into the kitchen. She saw that she had a missed phone call and a voice mail.

"Hi, this is Britney I heard that you were a good place to go for haunted things, I need you to come over to this address on Saturday, March 5th. Thank you, Rosalie."

Rosalie looked at the calendar and it was the 4th. She heard a very loud noise come from behind her. She spun around and saw that it was just her platypus, Rose.  Rosalie started laughing, how could she get scared by her adorable pet platypus? She figured she needed some sleep. She walked up the stairs and fell on to here bed and fell asleep.

The next morning she got dressed in to a tank top and some shorts, it's supposed to be warm today. She sat down in a chair at her table after she poured herself a bowl of Cookie Crisp cereal. She turned on the T.V. to see SpongeBob on talking about Krabby patties. She turned off the T.V. and walked outside to get her bike. She got on and was off the address on the phone call. The sun was a bright orange and looked awesome. It took some time and wrong turns to find the house. The first thing she saw was a large, fluffy, alpaca standing in the front yard. Rosalie walked up to the door and rang the bell. Britney opened the door and invited her in.  Britney told her that she had been hearing weird noises at night. Rosalie asked if she could spend the night and Britney agreed.

Later that night, it started storming, not light and quiet, but loud and heavy. There was a lot of lightning and the rain was making a waterfall of the roof. Then, there was a loud banging noise inside the house. Rosalie quickly got up and ran into the kitchen where Britney was. Britney said that it was just the hammer she got for Hanukah, not the weird noises. Then outside there was a moaning, a very loud eerie noise. Rosalie ran to the window and saw the alpaca outside moaning. Britney said that was the noise. Rosalie told Britney what the noise was and was thanked for her help. Rosalie said her goodbyes and got back on her bike to go home. "Another mystery solved" Rosalie thought to here self as she rode through the woods back home.

Warplanes of The Luftwaffe - Scrapped Project

Kevin Rentz and I started a project back in December and have been working since then and we recently discovered that we won't have enough time to finish this project before the end of the year. Even if we started in September we wouldn't be done until half-way through next year. We decided to scrap this project. We are still going to do a project on The Luftwaffe, but not so much on the planes.

For those who don't know, the Luftwaffe was and is the German Air force. Our project was focused on the old Luftwaffe. We were going to research almost all of the planes from that era. I am still working on researching my planes, while Kevin is still writing about his first Plane company. That is why we can't finish it by the end of this year.

We are bummed out that all of the research we did was a waste, but we plan to use some of it in our Project on the history of The Luftwaffe. We are scheduled to start working on the new project next week.       

Moon

Authors Note: This is one of my Stream of Consciousness pieces This one was my first and I really like it. I hope you do too.

I was sitting there an the open night laying down on the grass in my back yard to look up in the sky. I was just looking at the moon. It was a perfect full moon and it was shining so brightly, it was amazing. I started to look around the moon and I saw billions upon billions of stars staring back at me.  I sat there thinking about how many places that we will never see;  that I will never see. I looked at my watch it was almost midnight it wont be as beautiful as this of another month so I had to savor this moment until the very end. I started to focus more on the stars and started seeing some of the constellations. They were clear as can be I couldn't believe it, it was so amazing. I sat there staring and thinking until it was time for breakfast in the morning but even then I couldn't believe how much beauty there is in space.
