L1;3

I have been obsessed with doing this lately and I don't know why. Someone says a word and I make up a funny sentence to remember how to spell it. This ultimately started when laura and I were on VFK and we had a really big sugar rush. We were at the time obsessed with the word chalupa but VFK wouldn't allow the word. So we wrote "read caps" (capital letters) and wrote Check Happy And Laugh Under Piano Affects, thus spelling our word. So I will give you some examples and then you have to solve the ones that do with halloween. Good Luck!
p.s. the sentence doesn't have to do with the word, but if you make it so it does, i will give extra points! When you read, you will notice the first two poems I did had nothing to do with the word, but the last one does. Just to give you some examples.

My Not-the-best-idea kind of moment


So when dad picked me and Nick up today, he offered for us to go for "a nice little walk in the woods". I obliged, thinking it couldn't hurt. Well, after we finished doing the geocache, (if you don't know what that is, go to geocaching.com) we had to cross a stream (of course, it was a tad deeper and wider than I would constitute as a stream, it was more like a mini river.). None of us liked the other's ideas about how to cross it, so we all tried our own. Nick shuffled across a fallen down log, which I decided against due to the fact that my clutz-y ness would probably have me soaked from head to toe in a matter of seconds. Dad hopped across a small line of slippery rocks, which again, I would be underwater in two blinks of an eye. My way still got me wet, but at least that was because of my control. I rolled up my jeans, removed my shoes, and grabbed a stray stick for balance. Then I slowly stepped into the ice cold river. Carefully grasping me stick and my shoes, I waded deeper and deeper into the area I thought was the shallowest. Wow, I thought, good thing it's not winter! Man, I tell you, I thought my feet were gonna fall off by the time I dropped my stick, paused for a photo, and scurried up the bank! P.S. click the photo to get a better look at it!

Summary:

It's 2018, and for the past 6 years, the government has been seriously discussing living in space. They have finally decided it is time to scope out some guinea pigs. 10 people are chosen from every state in America, going through a series of physical and mental potential tests to determine if they will be able to hold out in the conditions of space. They are each given a token for a house, a car, and certain amount of Oaks, the currency of Oaklyn city. They have developed a completely self-contained society inside a space enabled structure. They will float around Neptune, where the government has decided will be the best place. Everything is ready to go. Now all they need is to go. The story is told by thirteen year old Saige, who unhappy with her orphan life, runs off to the recruiting center for the space project, hoping to find someone who will adopt her and take her up into space where her sad life can't find her again. Lucky for her, Aerika Beldyn wants a daughter. They go up to live in space, both happy when their new start, but bad things start to happen, and there is nothing to stop them...

The Return of the Mini Series!!!

Okay, don't get your hopes up too high. Although many readers were mad about me stopping "Another's Eyes", my mini series, there really was nothing I could do about it. My stupid computer still doesn't let me post stuff about my mini series. I don't really get it, either. I can post just about anything else in the world I want except chapters of "Another's Eyes". So I am starting a new mini series, a story that I have not already written! "Another's Eyes" was a story that was already written and stuffed away in a drawer in my room. My new series is one that I will be writing as I go. There will be a new installment every weekend on Sunday except the occasional time that I'm camping or something, I will post the installment early.

There is an extra twist to this mini series though, you (my readers) are an active part of the story! Every Saturday I will start a new poll in the top section of the column on the right hand side of the page. You must vote to determine what will happen on the next installment the next day. If no one votes, I will decide. Have fun reading my new series, which will be called In Neptune's Shadow. Today will be the first installment.
