Grandmothers

Most people think there some sweet old ladies that play bingo, bake cookies, give kisses, and knit, but they are MUCH more! My grandma is like my second mom. She is always there for me and she is really fun. She gives me a lot of advise that my mom could never give me. She is wise, strong and brave. My grandma travels a lot and she always brings me back something. One time she brought me back a bird from Alabama. Overall, I love my grandma!♥️♥️💋👵💌

It was a nice warm day and there wasn't a cloud in the sky. My family and I were going on my first family trip. "Here at last!" My aunt said at the top of her lungs. Slightly embarrassed I hopped out of the car and took off my cover up and threw it in the car. The sand was hot and the water was cold. 

"Come on let's go make some sand castles" I said to my cousin. While I was walking on the shore I could see pure White Sea shells washing up right next to me. All of a sudden a flock of seagulls and pelicans came flying towards us! I sprinted to my mom and asked her for some food we could give to the "birds". I grabbed the bag of bread crumbs and threw them to the birds as far a I could. All the birds landed on the burning sand and were fighting for the little pieces of bread. One seagull was basically knocking everyone over just so they couldn't eat anything. After the "birds" left I took out my towel and laid down in the sun.

My towel was a bright pink and it stood out on this beautiful day! When I sat up on my towel I saw someone familiar in the water. After I rubbed my eyes a few times I soon realized it was my cousin! He was surfing! As I ran up to the water and grabbed my camera I could feel the water on my toes. "When did you learn how to surf?" I said as soon as he crashed up against the shore." I have always known how you just don't pay attention". He yelled back to me. " Now can we please make some sand castles now!!?"FIIIIIINNNE!

Today we had another meeting for Washington, D.C. In Mrs. Roberts room. It started at 2:30 and ended at 6:09. My friends and I were so hungry! A lot of peoples parents came in and brought them some food. One kid got Jimmy Johns. We ran through our slides for the presentation. Aria is my partner and we are doing the River Rouge. I guess this meeting was worth it because now I almost have my script memorized.

    When I grow up I want o be a doctor. The type of doctor I want to be is a pediatrician because I love little kids and I love helping them. Every time I go to the doctor I always wonder what it would be like to take someone's blood pressure or give someone a shot. I think I am pretty good at science and math  so this would be a good fit for me. Doctors make a lot of money so I would be rich. I would also like to be a Brain surgeon so I can see how the brain works.

 I had just come preforming my routine for twirling at a back to school party. "Come on guys let's go race to the rock climbing  wall!" I told to my friends as they tagged  behind me. "On your mark get set go!!" I SCREAMED at the top of my lungs. I could the wind in my hair and there wasn't a thing that could stop me from soaring to that wall......yet..... In the corner of my eye I could see my friend almost in front of me and I knew I had to make a move quick. "Okay legs" I thought to my self, " you just have to work for about 30 more seconds and then you can rest all you want!" I sprinted as fast as I could until my left knee felt like it had completely given out on me! "No no not now not when I am about to win this race!!", but it was to late. I weird feeling came over me that day that nothing would be the same.

Scary Stories

It was a dark and scary night. There was named Jordyn and she was nine years old. Everyday when she woke up on the morning she would look in the mirror and brush her long long LONG dark curly hair. Her mom would always tell her " Beauty is only skin deep" but she wouldn't listen. All day at school all she could think about is how Beautiful she was and when she got home she went over to her mirror and brushed her long long LONG hair. But today was different. Today there would be no more brushing of the hair and no more beauty.

Halloween is coming up and I have been thinking about what I want to be. I was looking on Party City and I found two costumes that stood out. The first one I found was a mime. It comes with suspenders, a skirt, a beret, a striped shirt, and  a bandanna. The second costume I found was the Queen Of Hearts. That comes with a dress, headband, gloveletts,and tights. I am kind of sad that I wont be able to trick or treat with my friends this year because I am going to Washington D.C but I know I will have fun and this is a once in a lifetime opportunity.

The big discovery

Ding!! My mom and I had just walked of the claustrophobic elevator. First phisical therapy and now an orthipidic surgeon appointment!!! Sometimes I think that my friends think I am faking my injurie or they are tired of hearing about it because when I talk about it they look like they aren't even listening. A lot of kids think I'm faking and that I don't need all the support I have. When I walk into the door that leads to the waiting room, it feels like a million eyeballs are all on me. I like attention but I didn't imagine it like this! When my mom checked me in i saw the bathroom door open and all the nasty fumes went strait up my nose and seeped into my lungs. I was gasping for air but I tried not to show any facial expression. "Jordyn Denham for Sisisloyski" I heard the nurse say. Her eyes darted around the room until finally she spotted me. "Right this way" she said as she leaded me to a rather large room. As I waited for the doctor all I could think was, " please let there be good news PLEASE LET THERE BE GOOD NEWS!!". " Knock knock" I heard just seconds before the door swung open. He asked me a lot of questions and I gave him a lot of answers. Some questions didn't even seem necessary like when he asked me how's school going. He told me I could not do any more phisical things for another 2 months because he wanted to strengthen my knee a bit more. When the trial of questions was over, a lady came in and let me try on some knee braces. The one I got had two metal wires and something to keep my knee in place. "You're all set" the lady said. As I was walking out a lot of people were gone. It was like they had vanished. The moment I stepped oustside I knew it wouldn't be long until I would come here agian.

The Misterious House on StoneBrook Lane

There once was a girl named Tallulah Julia Jasmine. Jasmine was a very adventurous ,loyal, kind, and smart girl. She had just moved into a new house with her blended family 3,459 miles away from there hometown in London. Jasmine or as some people like to call her "Jazzy"  already had to adjust to a blended family but now she would have to deal with living in the busy streets of New York. Unlike the rest if her family she was happy to move to The NYC. When Jasmine was little she used to go visit her cousin Mildred and she used to tell her stores about when she was a child and how there family had great magic running through there veins. Of course Jasmine was to young to understand so she just sat there and listened, but deep down inside of her she understood.

The Birthday Catastrophe

The air seemed sweeter and the trees seemed greener. It was my birthday!! My whole family and close friends gathered at the park next to my house. I was turning 4 years old. When the party started I was happy that everyone was enjoying themselves and I was happy because my sister India was there. All the kids gathered around me and we played some games. I won all of them of course because after all it was my birthday. I decided we should go play on the playground. While everybody headed over to the spider web, I stayed behind and got a juice box. I got my favorite flavor, Wild Cherry. After I took a long cold sip I went to go play with my friends." I can climb the highest " I shouted while I climed my way up to the top......

The not so Terrific twirling

I was at twirling practice on a dark night. My friends and I were taking a break and we saw this creepy unusual hallway. Since we all were very curious we decided to go explore it. At first it was just my friend Kayla and I but soon more people started tagging along. "Wait up!" My friend Miyah and Nyah said as they followed. There was a door at the end of the hall and it looked like it had been there for ages. "Are you sure we are allowed down here?" Kayla asked as we checked to make sure no one was following us. "Of course we are" we all said.

 Kayla acts like she's not scared of anything because after all she is 12 in a half but deep down inside she's afraid of everything.

Presidential Perfection

My word count goal: 275.  

 I was so looking forward to going to meet Michelle Obama and watch her speak tomorrow night I thought to myself.  I am so happy that she is the first African American First Lady. One day I hope to be the FIRST AFRICAN AMERICAN FEMALE PRESIDENT! I could hear my mom on the phone with her friend Ronnie and I over heard them talking about some tickets to see something. I creeped down the hall and hid behind the couch waiting for the right moment. 

"Bye" I heard my mom say and she hung up the phone." so what were you talking about?" I asked in my suspicious high pitched voice. Well, Ronnie has some extra tickets to go see Michelle Obama speak but- "YAY YAY IM SO EXITED. OKAY SO DO WE HAVE TO DRESS FANCY OR CASAL IM GOING TO GO WITH FANCY!" I said before she could even finish her sentence. 

                                          

Part 2 Terrific Twirling

One Early morning in Ohio, My twirling team and I pulled up in the drive way of a high school for competition. I watched my mom get out go the car and get all of our stuff. Makeup,extra clothes, costumes and hair spray. I had knots in my stomach the size of a soccer ball. As I got out of the car I speed walked all the way to the door because I could not run. The air smelled like rain and I could see the clouds parting the sky. If the sky doesn't clear up quick then maybe that means we I will have bad look, I thought to myself.

My whole team huddled together as we waited for the rest of the people to come in. Once we were all inside the building we went inside to take of our layer of I clothes and put on our costume. I was blinded by everyone's sparkly outfits and hats. I went over the routines one last time just to make. sure I had it. "I AM SO NERVOUS!!" I said to my friend Miyah. Her mom was the coach so she was really good. "Don't be you are going to be awesome!!" She assured me. While we were going over the routine as a group I could see a couple people who didn't know the routine at all and if we didn't win it would be the first time we didn't win first place and that would be awful!! 

"Next up the twirling steppers." A woman said over the muffled loud speaker.  We all ran up on the ready line right after the team before us finished their routine. I almost dropped my baton from my sweaty shaking hands. When the music started a rush came over me and I was in the zone. As soon as my head went up I put on my biggest and brightest smile ever!!

I was doing my best and making sure that my arm was strait and my toes were pointed. When we were in. Our circle I could hear someone falling and dropping their baton but I never dropped it once. When it was time for me to go to the front and toss it up in the air and do my high kicks I was really nervous because the girl next to me was really of beat and we were right in front of the judges table! One judge was looking right in the eye and then she wrote something down and I knew things were not going well. My head went strait up when the music stopped and we strutted off the stage. 

When we got off the stage I felt I did really good but some people might have ruined that. The next routine was really good but I didn't know if we were competing against them.

Monday morning wake up call!

One early Monday morning, I got out of bed at 5:30 in the morning. I usually wake up at 6:30 but today was different, today I have physical therapy!! If I had to get up this early every day I would be miserable. Its hard for me to get ready in the morning since I have a hurt knee and I cant put pressure on it. When my mom and I walk to the car I feel a cold wind on my face. The surgeons office was only 7 minutes away. Physical Therapy was upstairs. When we pulled into the drive way thee was on other tiny red car. It was still dark outside and the building wasn't open yet so I decided to take a 5 minute nap. I thought to myself, how did we get here before the workers? I heard my mom screaming '' WAKE UP JORDYN!!". What is it? said as I popped my head up. Its time to go inside she said. As a walked inside the knot in my stomach disappeared.
