Three Facts One Fiction


Author’s Note: I wrote this piece because it looked like it would be a fun piece to write. Also please look at my sentence frequency.

I got my fake tooth when I was nine years old. When I was in the dentist’s office I was asked if I wanted to be numbed or have laughing gas. Of course when I was nine I chose the laughing gas. First of all because it didn’t involve needles and second of all my mom told me it would feel just like someone was tickling me.

Unfortunately it wasn’t ticklish, but it tasted like bubble gum!  After half an hour it quickly started to taste like metal. Anyways after one hour of intense pain they finally wiggled the tooth out, but the pain didn’t stop there and I’m not talking about physical pain. I mean the days afterwards when I couldn’t eat anything harder than a French Fry and nothing carbonated when I drink. Although that only lasted a couple days I still can’t eat starburst or milk duds.

What Avenger Am I?

Author's Note: I wrote this because I think this movie is really cool. Please look at my word choice.

If I were an Avengers I would be The Hulk. I would be the Hulk because he is really strong and that means he can lift, punch, kick and run very well. Although he cannot control when he turns into the Hulk I still think that it would be funny to own some people. I could also make money by being the hulk by playing sports.

Three Wishes

If I had three wishes I would spend them wisely. I would find a cure for every kind of cancer, have world peace and be the richest man in the world. The reason I would choose to cure cancer is to save many lives. That is also why I chose to bring world peace, but i chose to be the richest man in the world so I can give money to people in need and live a very nice life.

My Dream Vacation

Authors Note: I wrote this piece because I've always thought about this. Pay attention to my sentence structure.

On my dream vacation I would go on a cruise past Alaska and see polar bears and all the wildlife there. On the way back we would circle around Hawaii and try and surf. I would most likely not be able to surf it would still be fun to be in the water. I hope the water would be warm.

After the cruise that went by Alaska and Hawaii I would take a plane to Jamaica. In Jamaica I would swim, jet ski and snorkel. I would also zip line.
