Last Slice of Life Post

By Kelwyn

Well it's March 31 which means this is the last Slice of Life Post. This was a really fun thing to do. I wish we could do this again. I really enjoyed it but I am going to miss it because now I wont know how fun everybody had during there day. I always loved coming on here and telling everyone about my day, it can get all the problems I am having now and make it go away. This was the only place where I could let all my problems GO! I hope everyone also liked this activity. This is one thing I will never forget about my 6th grade year. Well there's also a April Fools thread but technically this is the last Slice of Life post of March! Happy early  April fools Day!!!!!!!

Ball Game Thingy

By Connor

Today in PE we played a game called "_____ ball". The funny thing about this game is that I don't know what goes into the blank. It is like a combination of football and soccer, there is a big net and you can pass the ball or throw it in. It is also mixed with lacrosse. This was probably the best day of PE that I've had at this school. I scored 3 times.

Our goaly _____ got hit in the face on the job. It hit his glasses. This historic event looked like you would see it on AFV or something, or FAILBLOG. I started laughing really hard. But then when I saw _____ was crying I stopped laughing.

Coloring

By Jay
 
You know when we were all little kids, who couldn't wait to go to Art class! That definitely has happened to me! I used to love Art! Now I'm in Band and I don't get Art, and my love for Art has dropped completely! Today for Social Studies and Reading we could have been doing coloring for homework. I chose that option in both of the available classes, but the choice might not have been the right one. A couple of minutes ago I found myself working very briskly on the mistake I made. From lack of doing art my capabilities and work rate on today's homework was pretty sub-par. Maybe I need another visit to a Hopper or Monet exhibit to boost my performance! Have you seen American Gothic, well I have! What other cool paintings have you seen? Nighthawks, anybody?

Prank War!!!!

By Andriana

OK so in early march me Camila and Tracy were having a prank war against Max, Andy, and Bruno.

They pranked us first by telling us they had a gift and then we opened the box and there was a stinky shoe,Hello....that is grounds for a prank war. So me and my friends had all these ideas. First we had to figure out all there locker combination's so we asked people and we got Andy's and Bruno combination, but not Max and we never did but anyway they also knew Tracy and my combination which was not good and that meant only Camila was safe so we had this idea that we would switch all our locks and Nadia and Gianni were in on it too. I gave my lock to Gianni he gave his to Camila she gave hers to Tracy she gave hers to Nadia and she gave hers to me. It was an awesome plan. So then Max started bragging about how he knew Tracy and my combination and I said go try it and he tried mine and it didn't work and he got mad and said you changed it and he kept on trying for like 5 minutes and could not get it open, it was hilarious. So when my team was all at the Rec we got pudding for snack and we took it and spread it all over the inside of Andy's locker. In the morning his face was so red but he was laughing too. We ended right there for some reason and we won, they think they one because the next prank they pulled on us was putting Hand Sanitizer on my locker, I said Thank you for keeping my locker clean (Backfire)

Golf Cart Crash!!!!!!!

By Leana
MONIQUE COME HERE! I yell at my sister as she is running bare-foot through my grandma's chocolate colored yard while I am chasing her in the golf cart. Then of all places she decides to go between two cars, and me without thinking drive through them or at least try to drive through them. BOOM! I crash into the fence that stands beside the golf cart and the two cars "Oh no what am I going to do" I could feel the tears welling up in my eyes and that feeling in the pit of my stomach like when you are about to go down that  big hill at the top of a rollercoaster.  My grandparents had spent months fixing that fence what were they going to think when they saw that it was hanging on just by a nail. REVERSE! My sister yells through her giggles, but when I do the whole fence falls on the windshield my heart starts beating like there was an angry elf trying to get out. “Okay” Monique says just get out and we can try to fix it, that's exactly what I did and we kind of succeeded, but at the same time being a epic fail from what it looked like before. When we were finally done, we walked inside the old brick house and plopped down on the couch actually laughing at what just happened.   
Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.
Mabey I will make this mistake again...it was kind of fun!

Waiting for Superman

 By Hunter

Today I was outside with a few of my friends. At first we were playing Man hunt and then kick the can. Everyone started to leave. My mom called my sister and me inside. My dad was watching a movie called Waiting for Superman. It was about kids that went to schools and didn't get enough education. I only was able to see the last 25-30 minutes. There were 6 kids trying to get into a better school, but they have to enter a lottery. Its when they randomly chose kids to enter there schools. 1:6 of the kids that got into the schools. But for the last 5 minutes one of the kids got a phone call. He picks it up and it was one of the schools. They talked and then he was going to cry because they opened more spots and he was able to go, in the end it was 2:6=1:3 was able to go. If you want to see this movie it has a great story to it but its very very sad.

The Hike

By Lauren

As we neared the top of the hike I was getting hotter and more tired by the minute.  Then at the very top we turned a corner and there it was. A giant 200 foot tall sandstone arch, right in front of us. We were at the top of a hill and just having the arch below us made me feel special. On either side of the arch there was a 30 foot cliff, the path that lead under the arch was only about 10 feet wide. So Will and I went under it to take our picture. We were very cautious while walking under the arch. It was very scary being in between two cliffs but really exciting to be under the arch at the same time. My Mom was too nervous to stand under the arch, so Will and I took a picture with her at the base of the arch. After a while looking and standing under the arch it was time to go. I was sad to go and didn’ t want to ever leave this beautiful place. But I was also excited to see what else we would do today. The mile and a half hike down wasn’t the most fun thing in the world, but was much easier than the hike up. In the end I realized that the hike really was worth it and sometimes the best things in life you have to work and wait for.
