The US of A


Are you proud of your country? Do you think your country has done you well? The United States of America sure has, they have done some of the greatest things in the world, like having one of the best armed forces in the world. The USA is the best because we are also a free country. I love the US of A for all its reason.

First off we are a free country we get to believe whatever we like whatever religion you want. In some countries you can’t believe in anything else its very ferly. We also have the freedom of speech we can go anywhere in the USA and speak about what we believe. You can also travel freely because we are one united place.

Another good reason why I am proud is because we are a democracy where the government listens to the people. Some countries that still have a King and Queen like when England used to be a monarchy.

Also some good reasons are we won World War 1 and 2. Our armed forces is one of the best in the world they dedicate there lives to the force. There are the police, the swat, army, navy, air force, and the special ops teams. The police dedicate their lives every day and leaving there families hoping to they can come back to them. The swat are basically police but they do the harder missions like if there is a airport getting taken over that’s what they do they go there instead of the police. The army, navy, and air force are the same basically except Army are ground troops, navy is water troops, and air force are the air troops like pilots. The special ops teams go and do the really hard missions and nobody knows who they are not even their families they go out change their name and be someone else completely. So they really need to be dedicated to their job or that can’t be on the spec ops.

Those are some of the reasons why I am proud of my country and if you have anything you would like to say that isn’t good about the United States you can’t say them to me because I will not listen to you. We also have people come over from different areas just live here because we are free. There is no place better than the US of A.

Dear Tyler


Author’s note: This letter to a friend that moved away and a friend that sends it just wants to stay in touch.

Dear Tyler,

            How’s the new house? I was just wondering why you moved away? The first week was the saddest week in all 6th grade. I wish I had your new phone number so I could talk to you we used to be so close than you moved away and it’s like you never existed. So I was just sending this letter to see how you are doing and to remind you of all the great times we had together.

            First off let’s start with the one great thing we always did at each other’s houses. Playing video games, was the most entertaining thing we did at our houses. All the great games we played like Left for Dead 2, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 and Black Ops, and even Star Wars games. One game I can’t wait to get would be the ne Modern Warfare 3 game looks pretty cool right.

Also the fun we had at school always messing around having the time of our lives. The thing we loved to do at recess was playing tackle football when we were not supposed to do tons of fun. Another time when we just went outside and just swing on the swings that was fun, going side to side running into each other, in gym when we would plan to be always on the same team for kick ball. We would always ask the school if we could be in the same class, but we never did get one. Then the last year in elementary school you had to move away and we get the same class together for just the 1st quarter of school. At least we were in one class together.

Finally there the thing we don’t like to talk about, the bumpy roads that we just want to forget but I think we need to get past them. The one time when I was driving you gator and I hit a jump with it when you told me not to and I broke the suspension on it. Even the time when I took one of your video games, because I was jealous of you having it for all of these things I am sorry friend. another thing I am sorry for is the time when I thought I was the best person in the world.

I sent this letter because I want to say sorry for all the bumpy roads we came across. Another reason why because I wanted to remind you of all the great times we had another one would be the air softing at your farm. It is a good thing we had more good than bad memories.

Sincerely,

Brandon

Football...the Greatest Sport Ever


Author’s note: This is a persuasive piece to inform people about football and to try to get them to joy or to watch football.

Do you think football is a great sport for all ages? In this sport you learn plenty of life lessons, discipline, and even communication. You win as a team you lose as team. You have to learn to stay together through everything nobody how bad you get beat. The one word you will hear in football a lot when you get good enough and trust each other that word is called family. It’s a big word family that’s how you have to stay together as a team the guys in your football team are your brothers that’s how you treat them. One football thing that just about every football team does is hold hands yes hold them. Football is a great for all ages.

Next big thing in football would be you learn life lessons all the time. You learn to work as a team if can’t work as a team then you lose, it’s has plan as can see. Working together is a life lesson you need for life with a team it’s harder. Communication is another big one without being able to talk to your teammates you won’t learn anything and you won’t run the play right. If you have a question and you’re afraid to talk to your teammate then you don’t know what is going on and you run the play wrong. This life lesson without you can talk to people and if you have a job interview and your shy then you won’t get that job.

Another reason why football is such a great sport is it helps later in life. It would help you because it makes you stronger and stronger means healthier and you can do more stuff. One big thing is discipline. You have to be able to have discipline to be able to play. You need to when not to talk and when to talk. If your coaches says something you don’t look at the ground you have to able to keep eyes on him at all times if you want a spot on the team. Football is like the real life you can’t screw around or you won’t be able to play and sitting on the sidelines is the worst thing that can happen to you.

Also one good thing to do at least it to watch it I guaranteed you will be closer to family and friends. When you watch it you most likely watch it with family or friends and then when you eat at the table or at school you have something to talk about. You know that when your family eats more meals together you will stay together longer. Plus most of the football NFL games are on Sunday so you can watch it on the most important day of the week because it the family day so after you get home from a good hour of church you go home and watch the Packers.

Finally football is the greatest sport in the world for all ages. I hope you can join or even watch football you won’t regret it. It brings family together and there is nothing more important than staying together as a family. Football is known for all these reasons and if you don’t even try to watch it or even play it you will regret it. If you think you are too old for it, play catch with your children if you don’t have any then call a friend if you don’t have any of those then that stinks to be you. If and older guy who as no shot at making it far just go grab a football and play catch with someone you know. Seriously if you’re young and looking for something to do try football even for a year if you truly don’t like it then you don’t have to play it, but if you work hard enough and don’t give up on your dreams and you’ll go far.

When Zombies Attack

Another’s note: I wrote the short story to entertain people about zombies and tell a story that happened to a man named Keith this story is a fiction.

This story is not a happy story, this is not a sad story, it just a story on how the great Keith survived the zombie apocalypse. Keith has brown eyes and short brown hair. First it starts off where Keith lives happily with his wife Gertrude, they have no kids. Gertrude has long beautiful brown hair and brown eyes. They are also known as the riches couple in the city. they lived at the top of the hill and in a huge mansion and had bullet proof walls with a gate. So they were really protected from anything, they made sure of that.

Then one day when they heard of a disease that was going around, they stocked up on food right away so they wouldn’t have to go out in public again, until of course they ran out of food. They had everything you could imagine from airplanes and an air port to every video game there is known to mankind. Yes they had their own airport that goes with their jets. They also have every book known to mankind in their library. Then when the disease spread all the way through the city and the people that didn’t have the disease had to leave the city for safety.

The only two people that didn’t leave were Keith and his wife because Keith believes that he has found a cure for this disease. But two years later Keith’s idea didn’t work at all so he was stuck but didn’t give up kept trying different things. He was getting so mad. One zombie that they captured was getting better slowly but it was talking like three years for it to get better. Keith thought there was no hope at all for curing the disease.

Then when all the zombies finally got smart enough they found one of the easiest places to fit through. All of the zombies went through the gate and surrounded the house. By now Keith just found out that his potion actually did work, the zombies where already surrounded the little bullet proof glass box and Keith gave the potion to his wife and she went into a bullet proof closest and hid there because Keith had two grenades and killed himself and all of the zombies surrounding them.

Then Keith’s wife went to a camp not far from the city that had a bunch of survivors living to there. She gave the potion to the scientist working there and they made more of the potion and they finally got over the zombie apocalypse. One thing that the world will never forget is the great Keith. I know that I said Keith would survive but he did for the most of the time at least but he saved millions of other lives along with his wife’s. They made a great big statue of him and his brave story in a great big gold statue.
