I haven't posted in a while, I've been pretty busy. Here's a poem that came out of a prompt given to me once again Sophia Stordahl the one and only. I don't think I'm a very good poet but thats ok because it's fun to try anyway. Hey! that rhymed maybe I'm a better poet than I thought (Not really 😂 ) The prompt was: Something about rain. A pretty vague prompt but I came up with something from it so that's ok!!!
Think about a raindrop.
Watch it flying high,
then falling from above.
When the winds do blow,
Watch the raindrops flow.
They fall down below.
Watch the flowers grow
grow
grow
glow
Watch a flying raindrop
drip, dripping from the sky.
Watch it go by,
but never wonder why.
This is Marvin the raindrop, signing off.
This blog is mostly for fun and for Language Arts class. If you enjoy reading about opinions, how people see the world, stories and more my blog is for you, if not maybe somebody else's blog is.

A note from a Paper Weight
I have been going around and asking my friends for writing prompts. The last one was from a friend named Sophia. This writing prompt was brought to you by Elise Kumasaka. The prompt: Paper Weights. She was reading a book called paper weight when I asked her for a prompt so anywho... here I go. Also this is supposed to look like its on a lined sheet of paper. How'd I do?
-Edward Sullivan
Hello, my name is Edward Sullivan. and in case you were wondering yes. Yes I am a paper weight. I have a sad, disappointing, depressing, lonely, un-purposeful life. I am moved from paper to paper without a care it's like the peoples don't even know that I'm there. Hey that rhymed! But the peoples wouldn't care, because they don't even know О that I'm there. Oh wait I already said that didn't I? Oh bother. I'm sorry, I'm not a very good conversationalist But I don't get much practice in speaking to people. No one talks to me. No one notices me. No one cares. No one even knows that I'm there...s. I don't even care that I've already said that I just wanted to make my statement rhyme. But it doesn't matter because no one will read this. No one talks to me. No one notices me. No one cares. No one even knows that I'm theres. It's like I said: I am a paper weight, I have a sad, disappointing, depressing, lonely, un-purposeful life. Please notice me...

Crickets
I. Hate. Crickets. They are awful little creatures. They are creepy and crawly and icky and they get out of their cage and into my house. I would have nothing to do with them if it weren't for three of my favorite beings in the world. Harriet, Hermione and Murray. They are leopard geckos so they eat crickets which means I have to deal with them. Harriet and Hermione are the science class pets at my school. And Murray is my gecko. And guess what? They all love crickets yaaaay 😭 . I have 4 main reasons for hating crickets.
Number 1: The big ones are super annoying because they make noise normal people call it chirping, I call it cricketing.
Number 2: They smell really weird
Number 3: I mentioned this already but it's one of the reasons I hate them. They get out of their cage and into my house. I've found 3 and my dad has found 1. Ick.
Number 4: To be honest they just freak me out. they're creepy little crawly things and I just... BLEH!!!

Last Weekend
Last weekend was very busy. On Friday I went to the school carnival with a bunch of friends. I was really fun. I bought some bracelets a hat and I got my face painted. My friends and I won at the cake walk. We had 18 people and the other group only had 2. On Saturday my grandparents came in from Illinois. I had a recital at the Bryant Lake Bowl, which my grandparents came to. After that we went to my aunt's art crawl. She was a spotlight artist! So that was super cool. My parents, uncle and I surprised her by bringing my grandparents. We bought a piece of hers it's really pretty. After that we took my grandparents to Mavericks, a really good sandwich place. On Sunday I competed in a horse show with Tucker. We did pretty well. We did 7 events. We won 2 second places and 1 first place so that was pretty cool. I was so tired after the show. I usually have about half a day of relaxing or at least non-craziness but this weekend I didn't so I was pretty exhausted. And then on Tuesday I found out I had strep. YAAAY :( :( :( -_- ): ): ):

Part 1
I'm going to try something new today. For the past few months I have been having a lot of writers block. So I am going to try using some writing prompts.
"Nothing," she replies
"It's when you let go that things happen,"
and just like that the world as I once knew it disappeared. Everything was black, gone, plain nothingness. Until I opened my eyes and everything was light again. But it seemed much brighter than before.
"Here you'll need these," Scarlet said, handing me a pair of sunglasses.
"Scarlet, what in the world is going on?"
"Well that depends, which world? Because this one is most certainly not the same as the world you've always known."
"What do you mean?" I ask
"This world is different than the one you used to reside in... for starters, could I do this if we were in your world?" And within one second and a flash, standing in front of me was a horse.The most beautiful horse I'd ever seen.
"What just happened? What- How- Who- Who are you?"
"I, miss Quinn Grace, am your loyal protector. My name is Scarlet Brown just as it has always been as am I. You and I have been friends since before we can remember but I have always been here for your safety."
PROMPT:
"What happens if I push this button," I ask"Nothing," she replies
"It's when you let go that things happen,"
and just like that the world as I once knew it disappeared. Everything was black, gone, plain nothingness. Until I opened my eyes and everything was light again. But it seemed much brighter than before.

"What just happened? What- How- Who- Who are you?"
"I, miss Quinn Grace, am your loyal protector. My name is Scarlet Brown just as it has always been as am I. You and I have been friends since before we can remember but I have always been here for your safety."

First Post of the New Quarter: Spring Break
Last week was spring break. It was really fun, and super relaxing. My family and I didn't go anywhere so I found fun things to do around here. On Friday I hung out with a friend and I went to a Lizzo concert which was amazing. On Saturday and Sunday I went to horse riding lessons. On Tuesday I went out for ramen with my dad. On Wednesday I went shopping with my mom. On Thursday I got my nails painted gel with my mom and a friend then we all went shopping. On Friday I got my hair died I got ombre streaks of turquoise fading into dark blue. On Saturday I went to horse riding lessons again. And finally on Sunday I went to breakfast with my parents then I relaxed at home for the rest of the day and played my mom in about 2 billion games of uno.
