I looked up and saw the cauldron full of candy. I took a step up the porch, and my foot landed on a pad that activated a mechanism. All of a sudden a hand reached out from under a bush and nudged my shoe, then bats on zip lines flew over my head. The full moon shone overhead, clouds drifting past it in the cold autumn wind. A still figure sat at the top of the stairs. I walked up to the top. I grabbed some candy just as the monster yelled BOO! The sweet tarts in my hand flew out as I stampeded down the driveway. I have visited that house every Halloween after that.

The rain fell from the dark grey clouds hammering against the pavement outside my window. I looked up from my iPad to see the garage getting flooded with muddy brown water, and I thought of the work my dad would later give me and my brother to clean up the mess. The leaves and acorns on the porch, the mud in the garage, the rocks on the driveway, and the dirt that spills from our yard onto the patio.

The first time I made a model car it was a disaster, but the second time it went alright I mean the wheels couldn’t go on, but the engine looked great. I still haven’t finished it. I haven’t even painted the body yet. I even painted the seat belts a different color from the rest of the seat. At the moment I am working on the cars body.

My shoes have taken me aboard an airplane to go to Washington
I know a lot about my shoes
My shoes are not above my feet
My shoes have taken me across a bridge
I used my shoes after my soccer tournament
I smack my shoes against each other to get the dirt out
I move my shoes along the ground when I walk
When I jump my shoes are amid the air
I like my shoes a lot

In ancient China
In the snack bar
Among lots of pizza
That is in the brick oven
In front of a dragon
Within fiery breath
I rest

Sugar is used in many ways. I like sugar because it’s in candy, hot chocolate, chocolate milk, dark chocolate, milk chocolate, caramel, ice cream, butterscotch, jolly ranchers, apples, and caramel apples.

I am happy because I got to get away from my family, and hang out with my friends more. I’m also happy because it’s easier to fall asleep because I’m actually tired when I go to bed.

Elephant is a band that makes really good indie rock. I listen to them on my stereo and the radio sometimes. I have good headphones to listen to it with. The name of the band is kind of weird but I like it.
