Hello, my name is John Adams! I was born in the Bay Colony in 1735. I went to Harvard as a lawyer, and became a dedicated Patriot after that.
During the Revolutionary War, I served in France and Holland with diplomatic roles. I came back to the States after the war and ran for vice-President under George Washington.
When the second president was needed, I became the second President of the United States.

I wrote this poem while starring at Peanut. Coincidentally he was also starring at me, thus giving me an idea for a poem:
I know of a beggar.
He lives in my house.
All day and all night,
He makes crazy rouses.

This is continued from Laser Tag! Part One.
Crazy, I ran down the ramp to the second floor of the fort (there were three). I shot up through the grills, and I didn’t know whether it worked or not.
Forty minutes of high suspense. It was obvious why so many people loved this.
“GAME OVER!” boomed the loudspeakers at the end. We all walked down to the bottom and shook hands as we walked out.
“Decryption,” showed the big screen, “Third place.” Continue reading

A few weeks ago, I began to watch a Chinese TV show about being in the army. They used really cool laser rifles, and of course as a kid, I just had to try that out (without actually hurting anyone).
Well, it turned out I got invited to my good friend (I have a lot of good friends) Erv’s birthday party.
The best part?
It was at the local laser tag arena.

Today a dress rehearsal of a school musical took place. I was staring as a soloist.
For over three months now, I have been practicing my part. It was only five lines, so I got it down smack, but the hard part was facing the world.
In third grade, I was in a musical, and didn’t have any on-stage parts except for a song, and that was required.

Furdo is not a word you can find in a dictionary. Furdo is a word, however, that I hastily put together, taking “fur” and “hairdo” to make up this ridiculous word.
Regardless of the word’s correctness, Peanut (my dog) got a furdo a few weeks ago.
We took him (for the first time) to a doggy salon and got him cut up by a professional.

My good friend Mr. Sunshine and I one day brought Rocky to church.
Mr. Sunshine, his dad owning a big company, gave us some really cool lasers. These lights had dual LEDs on the front for regular lighting, and one low-powered LASER on the front as well.
They were also labeled with the Intel logo, and all in all I absolutely loved it.
On the way to the church, we talked about our plans as “military men” and “snipers”.

In my school, we have “snack”. It used to be a kindergartner luxury, because once you “graduated” kindergarten, you weren’t allowed to bring snacks anymore. You also couldn’t take naps anymore.
Well, as part of our new principal coming to our school, the new principal said that we were allowed to bring our own snack.

A month or so ago, a classmate named Tom started coming in very sleepily. We didn’t know why, but everyone agreed that he needed more sleep.
Well, one day, he was so awake and so happy that we knew something was wrong. He was making wise-cracks and even dancing to the YMCA! Finally, the teacher asked him what he was up to.

Skiing was amazingly fun at Winter Park. The sun was shining brightly as I started skiing down from the peak of Mary Jane, a summit in the park.
We were supposed to take a blue trail down to go on the highest, high-speed, six-chair lift that had just opened two weeks ago.
