Twisted fairy tales


Once upon a time there lived a beautiful witch called Laykan, but she didn't like being pretty. One day she asked her Prince Charming on the wall, "who is the ugliest of them all?"
"You are your majesty," he said, lying.
The 2nd day she asked the same thing but there was a different answer. He said "not you, you are the prettiest of them all. I'm sorry I can't help myself."
"I can't believe it!" Laykan cried. "How long have you lied to me?"
"Since you first laid eyes on me and hanged me on the wall," answered Prince Charming. "Oh and now you are the 2nd prettiest of them all. That lovely girl over there is beautiful."
"That's it!" she yelled. "This is a competition. I want to be the prettiest!" So off she went. Even though just a minute ago she said she wanted to be the ugliest. I guess she changed her mind.
When she reached the girl, she said to her "oh no little girl, your face is breaking out. Take this cream." But all that did was make the girl's face smell like a peppermint foot. Laykan was angry, so she went to the huge mansion that the seven giants owned. She peeked in the window. No one was home. She sneaked inside and went into the pretty girls room and under her pillow was her diary. Laykan grabbed it and she started to read and she found out that her name was Delaney and her weakness was cookies.
Laykan ran home and grabbed a banana and dipped it in cookie crumbs and put banana yogurt all over the top and then she waited until Delaney got home. An hour later Delaney returned and went inside and the witch knocked on the door. "I wonder who that could be?" she said and answered the door.
"Hello," said the witch in an old women voice. "Would you like a banana?"
"Oh yes please," answered Delaney. The witch handed the banana to Delany and she bit it. "Mmmm, delightful."
"What, wrong banana? Damn it," said Laykan in her head. She gives a fake smile to the girl and runs home.
When she returned the Prince Charming asked "how are you so healthy?"
"Oh I just eat lots of fruit and veggies." replied Laykan. Then she picked up the banana and took a bite out of it, but what she forgot is that she is allergic to bananas. Uh, oh! She falls to the floor and that was the last of the witch well known as Laykan.

Top 5 skills to have your own party


Everyone party at my house!
  • Make your guest list (you don't want too many people - it will be crowded, but you don't want too less people - it will be boring)
  • Music you need to crank up the sounds so people actually want to stay
  • Dance moves - you don't want to do dance moves like the robot or sprinkler or crumping. No! No! No!
  • Clothes are a big part of your life. You need the best clothes so go beg for money and scavenge under the couches and your brother's room and go shopping.
  • Decorations - you need to pimp up your house and put everything embarrassing in your closet
  • Surprise - oh and did I mention every birthday should have a surprise?

Describe boredom


I can tell you what boredom is. I am bored all the time.
  • Listening to your dad's favourite album (Elvis Presley)
  • Watching your big brother flick his hair and trying to be cool
  • Ringing all your friends to play and they're all not there
  • Sitting in your room trying to go to sleep when your parents are partying
  • Oh and don't talk about how much your mum embarrasses you
  • I get back from gym and turn on the TV and the biggest loser is on, I mean boring

     

    Now that is boredom. I mean I still haven't had a shower. My brother is probably still in there!

7 Minute Writing Warm Up


They ran past him like a frog catching a fly. Are they fans or an angry mob? Going and coming again. To and there. Plenty of noise they're making, I can assure that.
Food, I said to myself, I'm hungry. And there they are again. Drink, I need a drink. Treats, I also need treats. The mob runs around in circles. Ride, I need to go for a ride to see what that ruckus is.
Home, I am home, I found out what it is: Justin Beiber is in Hastings. Again they ran round and round in circles. Did I hear that silence? Finally….

Grumpy

When I first saw earth I was blue, but that was only because the cord was wrapped around me. Anyway, because I was blue Dad thought he would get me a smurf (because apparently I looked like one).

1 year later. It was Christmas. I was excited. I ran into Mum's room. "Wake up, it's Christmas!" I ran to the tree. No presents? What? Santa hasn't been here?

And then I saw one shiny present. I grabbed it. It had writing. It said "To Savannah, from Santa". I screamed! I opened it. It was a smurf. I called it Grumpy. We did everything together. Well, except one thing and that was showers. Grumpy hated showers.

One day Grumpy was really dirty and Mum said should we give Grumpy a wash. "No!" I squealed. And then… Mum said if you don't give him a wash you will get rabies and your eyes will fall out first. (I didn't know what rabies were but eyes falling out, ahhhh!) Quickly I handed him over. I missed him but I washed him twice a week from then on.
