driving lessons

Today my dad took me on my second driving lesson, he was teaching me to turn tight corners and still stay on the left-hand side of the road. It was hard, because the tight turn we were using, was down hill so there were all these thing that needed to be taken in, in a split second. But in the end I was able to do it even if I did hit the curb and then lost control of the car. I still got round the turn with of going on to the left-hand side and that was what I was trying to do. (Neither the curb nor the car were effected although dads bravery to get in a car with me may be some what permanently damaged.)

The bad beginning

The bad beginning is the first in the series of unfortunate events, by Lemony Snicket. The story follows three children Violet, Klaus and Sunny, orphaned after there mansion was burned to the ground. These three unlucky children were sent to live with there very distant uncle, count Olaf, who wants there fortune all to himself and has many disastrous plans install for them. Though these children are talented and there skills are put to the test, to protect themselves and there enormous fortune.

the philosopher’s stone

Harry potter and the philosopher’s stone by J.K Rowling, to me is probably the most famous book in the entire world, and I can only hope many people have read it.
It contains many mystical creatures and a bigger idea of what a world full of witches and wizards could be like.
This book starts off with just an ordinary boy, in a family where he feels despised and unloved, then out of the blue a letter arrives and hurry’s whole life is changed as he realizes he is apart of a fantastic magical world, but to every upside there is a downside and this ones name is VOLDEMORT!

joke

An old couple walked into a fast food cafe and ordered 1 burger, 1 drink and 1 regular chips.
When they sat down the woman pulls out a knife and cut the burger in half while she’s doing this the old man counts up and divides the chips equally.
The old man takes a bit of his burger eats a chip then takes a sip of drink.
The old woman just takes a sip of drink then the process is repeated.
A man sitting a table away sees this and walks over and offers to by them another meal, and the old man says “it’s O.K we always share every thing”
So they carried on with this process, till the man again goes back and says
“Really it’s no problem I can buy you another meal.”
And the woman says “No thanks it’s O.K we share everything”
Then the man says “Well so far he’s the only one who’s eating anything”
The old woman says “Well of course I waiting for the teeth.”

dreaming

There I was, in the dark, how I got there would be news to me, the hair on the bak of my neck stuck up, my whole body began to shudder, there was something there in the darkness and I didn’t like what it was.
There was a sound up ahead of a door slowly creaking to a open position.
What ever that thing was, was coming closer as chills were sent on after the other down my spine. I squeezed my eyes tight shut, just hoping that if I couldn’t see it maybe, just maybe it wouldn’t see me.
CLICK! A light flicked on, my eyes flung open the thing was just my mother waking me. I sighed with relief wondering what I would have for breakfast.

petals in the wind

The sequel to my favorite book (flowers in the attic) is petals in the wind; it carries on the tragic tale of 4 children (Chris, Cathy, Carrie and Cory) after they escaped from the creepy airless attic that they were held prisoners in for just over 3 years. The story goes on as they reach and grasp there dreams, but the memories f the past continue to haunt them and they want revenge, revenge on there mother and there grandmother the two very woman who stole away there childhood and the life of there youngest brother. Will there plan work or will the tragedies in there families grow.
