My Fair Lady

Once upon a time there was a fair Madden who every one in the little valley of Wynona. Her family was very shy on money, and had to work even harder for every thing in their house. The fair Madden's name was Isabella, Izzy for short, she had very little friends and her only friend was her sweet cousin. Jess and Izzy made the best tag team, and always had each others back.

Izzy's parents didn't get along and got a divorce. Her mom was sweet and showed Izzy who she wanted to be when she got older. Her dad was a wealthy man that she rarely ever saw but she missed her mom when she wasn't with her.

Izzy loved to do all the chores, wash cloths, clean dishes, iron the laundry, and tend to the animals. Doing these things made her feel good about herself and helped her mom. She also wasn't a big fan of the soon-to-be princess named Mernah.

Mernah was self centered and rude! She lied to the whole kingdom and talked bad about Izzy. Every peasant knew this but still praised her when she came around. The Grand Ball was where Izzy was gonna take over she knew her brake was over.

The next day they announced that Izzie would be in the Grand Ball! Her wildest dreams would come true even though she wouldn't win she was there, this was real.

The Starting of a New Age

The Pilgrims were a kind people, their interests in pursuing a life where travel was key. They hunted the new lands and they protected each other from the unknown. As time went by their curiosity grew wider and wider. All the sudden one day they found them selves in trouble, they had no food or any shelter and they were ambushed by darker skinned people who spoke a different tongue.

That day was the worse of the Pilgrims days. It started as a normal day, the snow that fell over night was shining when the not so powerful sun hit it. The children ran and had fun while Ma's and Pa's were doing their house work. The parents would send the older children to fetch supplies for the big Sunday diner.

When the families were gathered back up they would get dressed in their best cloths and head to church. These families in the community would gather up go all together. But on this day history would be made in the small village. It was a normal day that went way wrong.

As the children skipped happily to the church singing Christmas songs, they noticed movement in the bushes and stopped. The parents noticed the silence almost immediately and ran to find the children, to their surprise it was a tall tan man teaching the girls a little song.

The Pilgrims were afraid that a complete stranger was so close to their children, they started caring guns and making their children walk with them. It was a frightening day in their life and it made the day seem long and drawed out. The people promised to never let their children come face to face with that sort of danger ever again for as long as they should live.

Favorite Movie


My favorite movie has to be Role Models. It's a comedy movie about two adults who mess up their lives and are forced to donate around 170 hours to Sturdy Wings, a program for problem children, where they each are assigned to watch one kid each. One kid is a super nerd and loves playing a live game that is a 24-hr Renaissance fair. The other kid is mean to every one and has made all of the other volunteers quit.

In the movie the main characters' girlfriend leaves him because he is always depressed. He is paired up with the Renaissance nerd. The other ones name is Wheeler and he gets paired up with the one that is mean.

In the end they all come together to help the nerd and get his role model his girlfriend back. It helps Wheeler become less self centered and his "kid" to become more loving.
