It was a great day in ghost village. The king ghost announced "leave West side and go to East side. A chocolate banana and onion storm is coming." Everyone screamed. On the East side they found out it was raining hamburgers. They all ate one. THE END.

There are rounds things in the painting. It makes me thing of a tube. There are pants in the picture. It reminds me of a stick. It reminds me about plants. There is a little tube in there. It looks like people. There is someone looking at a telescope. It reminds me about a lot of people.

One day ten little robots were walking down robot road. the one in the middle was telling some jokes about clowns. all the other robots laughed but one was laughing so much he bumped into a pole. all the other robots bumped into him. clang, crash, screw, eeek, ping, clatter. they ended up in a mess and got tangled up and couldn't get fixed together again

They were everywhere all around me thousands and thousands of cybernetic machines . I tried to scream but nothing came out just a breath of fear and confusion, I tried to run but my legs wouldn't couldn't move .All of a sudden something very hard and something spiky hit me on the head but the force of the blow knocked me out on the spot.

The curtain was ripped from the rail, as a young, modern sort of guy pulled it. "eww, where did THIS come from,?!" he said, with a little shudder. "I'm not having it in MY house." Benny and his girlfriend Suzy had just bought the house, and it was all brand new, freshly decorated, with peaceful pastel colours, and brand new furnishings. He simply snatched it up, and tossed it to Suzy. "uh, y'know, this actually looks kind of...valuable. Maybe i should hang on to it." she said, confused. "do what ya like" he said with a sniff. "now, I've got work to do. The removal guys should be hear within minutes."

Later that day, Suze took the curtain to a museum and was surprised when the examiner tossed it back, saying it was rubbish. Feeling peeved, Suzy threw it in the rubbish can on the street. much Later, an old lady, named Doreen walked passed it, and almost fainted. There it was. Her family blanket. Surviving 2 wars, 6 deaths, 3 bombings, and 4 fires, it was a very valuable piece. But only to her. She was about to pick it up, when she suddenly fell to the floor, complaining of a chest pain, still clutching the blanket.

How I feel so lost. I fit in oh to well. I'm one of them. One of them. I don't hve my own tale. I don't pick my own style. They do it for me. Can you tell which one is me? You'd think it's is impossible. I sighed as I wondered when I would stop following them and be myself. A time for me to say "It's enough." I fit in oh to well.
