Go on. Nobody is stopping you, so go ahead and watch the watch argument. There’s nobody stopping you. Except for me. You would be invading my privacy. So actually, don’t go on. Someone’s stopping you, so don’t go ahead and watch my very interesting argument.

But you can read my argument. Well, actually it isn’t an argument. It’s actually just a joke… a true joke. I’m writing it in a different style…

It all started on an innocent sunny day. This was the first day my friend had his watch. Continue reading →

A few days ago, I attended the spelling bee. Remember that post I wrote two months ago about my being a contestant? Of course you didn’t.

But now I must painfully tell you that I did not win.

I lost on a hard word, specifically not telling you which word it was.

I will, though, tell you how I lost. Continue reading →

A few days ago, I tested the test. Yes, I did. I know it sounds strange, but true. It all happened on an innocent end-of-the-day, when I was preparing to do my go-out-of-the-side-door procedure. I grabbed my backpack and sat down and waited for a announcement that the teacher was signaling for us to listen too.

She said, “Tomorrow, we will do the field test for the TAKS test that the state is developing. We will do nothing— I repeat, nothing— else but this field test tomorrow. You will not— you will not— be graded on it, but do your best on this.”

She was repeating a lot of things, but the message was clear: one of those whole-day tests. Continue reading →

Yesterday, I went out the backdoor of my school. Pretty sneaky, eh? Yes, very sneaky, going out that door feels like.

Yeah, feels like. I’m not kidding. It isn’t, really. It’s actually perfectly allowed. Now all the pizzazz is gone because I told you that.

A few days ago, I didn’t even know that you could do that. It all started a few months ago.

This morning, my dad waited for the lady he carpooled with. Every morning, he had to do this because he had to go to work.

Well, today was no different. He was waiting when he noticed that the main route to his work had been closed. Worse, the HOV lane, which was a one-lane route from the end of the highway to downtown, was shut down! Continue reading →

I know a very care-free lady. I also know what I like to call this care-free lady. Her name is spelled A-U-N-T-Y. Aunty. Yep, that’s my aunt, all right. She is very carefree. So carefree.

The previous time she was evident of being carefree was when she was going to her boss’s daughter’s wedding. She had promised her boss she would be there to give his daughter a lovely bunch of flowers.

But she thought it was in the University Of Houston! She hurried and drove and hurried over to the University of Houston just in time. She opened the door and there was no one there.

No, let me rephrase that: She tried to open the door, but she couldn’t because it was locked.

Something terribly small happened yesterday. Something small enough that it would be good to tell you about.

The small happening just happened to happen yesterday. And as usual, small happenings are started by a small thing.

In my case, a pepperoni.

Today, what was an innocent math game turned into a shelter-in-place.

In order to tell you exactly what happened, you need to understand that today the Nalco Company plant which does water treatment and chemical technologies, accidentally released a combination of water vapor and a chemical – ethylenediamine. 17 employees were injured or had minor cuts. (source: Nalco).

The release was because a pressure release valve on the truck may have dislodged, causing the release into the atmosphere. The chemical involved could hurt skin, arms, and eyes, and those who were exposed to it might have vomiting and feel nausea. Continue reading →

My dear aunt is sucked into blogging. She started a few months ago, but now you can call it the online day clock. The reason for that is because it is now practically an accurate time-tracker. Only did she rest for a few days did it get off by three or four days.

In fact, that day when we were eating, I asked how long it had been before she started blogging. She and my dad replied at the same time for me to count the number of posts she had written.

So it had been over seventy days.
