I just finished my writing camp at the Meadow Brook hall mansion, which is in Oakland University. We made a final presentation where we shared some of our writing, here is my presentation.

The frame

I stepped out of the uncomfortable taxi cab and handed the driver my money. I looked down at the wad of cash longingly, $500. All of my savings thrown away just to get a new start. I thought sadly. I got framed for a crime I didn’t do! Wait! Let me explain! A woman in a business suit came at my door at almost 12:00 at night saying I won a thousand dollars. The weird part was they said I had to take the money this instant or else I wouldn’t get it. At first I was happy that I won that much money! I was so happy I almost took it blindly. I was about to until they said I had to sign this piece of paper that I couldn’t read because of the light. They kept pressuring me to sign it until they couldn’t wait anymore. They said if I don’t sign in 5 seconds they would have to give the award to someone else! I was so desperate, I wasn’t thinking straight. I signed and took the money. Not 3 minutes later the police showed up and took me under arrest. It took 3 years for my name to be cleared and the bad guys to be caught, but even after that I couldn’t bear to live in Michigan anymore! I got mean looks even my own daughter got shunned because of me! I couldn’t take it anymore and moved to Chicago. Now I have a fresh start and I even got a new last name of me and my daughter. I have a fresh slate here for me to pursue any job, anything I have ever dreamed of doing! I won’t have to worry about people whispering ‘oh Suzie don’t play with the thief’s daughter, I don’t want you to get influenced.’ I am so glad that finally I get a new chance at life! I can help fix those kind of problems and raise awareness of thieves and how to catch them. More importantly, more people staying safe, without having their neighbors look at them like criminals just because they got framed. Even after the real criminals have been caught! I can help!

The Thunderstorm

“Quick, get into the house Amy!” Suzie yelled. Amy was sitting on the porch looking at the horrible disaster. This was no ordinary thunderstorm, it was an acid thunderstorm where anybody who touched the rain would get severely burned. Amy and Suzie are best friends and Amy came over for a sleepover just a couple hours ago. “No, it’s so pretty, I don’t want to go in.” Amy replied.  The acid in the rain makes it looks shimmery and magical to anyone who looks at it. They can’t resist touching it, but when they do they get burned severely. Amy started to reach her hand our getting closer and closer to the rain drops. “No! Amy, get back!” Suzie yelled frantically. In desperation she lunged towards and dragged Amy into the house and locked the door. “OMG (Oh my gosh)! Thank you so much for saving me Suzie! I might’ve died, I could’ve been in the hospital for a long time! The acid rain is made up of part acid, part poison and part rain. It’s mostly poison, though. “No problem, that’s what friends are for Amy, you would’ve done the same for me wouldn’t you Amy?” Of course, you said it yourself, that’s what real friends are for!” The laughed and ran to the kitchen to get themselves a snack.

Air Time

Yesterday I went to air time with some of my friends and as soon as I got there I was really excited to jump! We got out wristbands and went over to take our socks and shoes off. As soon as we were all ready we just about ran to the trampoline area, and I gingerly got on and started jumping. It was sooooooo fun! We went to the dodge ball area and got in the line to play. We also went to the foam pit where we had contests to see who could jump the farthest into the foam pit. I know for sure I'm going back to Air Time!

Air Time

Today for one of my friends birthday party we're going to Air Time, and I'm really excited. I've never been on a trampoline in my whole life! My parents are worried that I might break my neck or get really hurt. I had to convince them that it is safe to go to air time. I'll tell you about it another time.

Last Day of School

Even though I'm excited for my camps this summer, I'm really sad for the last day of school because I made bonds with all my friends this year. It seems right after I made close bonds with all my friends then we're getting split up for 7th grade. At least all my friends are going to see each other over summer break and during lunch next year. We're also going to be in at least one class together! I'm really sad to be graduating 6th grade. At least I'll make even more friends next year during 7th grade! Also since this might be my last blog post ever on this blog, I was wondering: Mr. Joe do you want me to keep writing??

Book Sale

Today after school was out and during choice hour I went down to the media center where they were selling used books, paper back books for 50 cents, hardcover books for 1 dollar and fill a bag for 5 dollars. I gave the librarian 5 dollars and she gave me a thank you bag and I started to fill the bag up with books that looked interesting. Ania came with me and helped me choose books. Most people didn't know about the book sale and it'll be too late tomorrow because the sale ends today. I got some really good books, one was a giant book of art and another was another humongous book of short stories by the same person. I'm glad I'll have something to read at all of my camps! I love, love LOVE to read!

Summer Vacation

As summer break is getting closer and closer, all my friends are getting sad that we won't see each other for about 2 months. The good news is that we have a group text set up and most of us will be seeing each other at camp or hanging out at each others houses. The thing I'm going to miss most about school  during the summer is socializing with my friends. I'm also going to miss the structure of school and the schedule which helps me keep focused and busy. I'm also going to miss my teachers.

Move Up Day

I walked into Mrs. Korhman's room when she saw me and said, "Oh, Hi take a seat anywhere and here's the schedule for today."
"Ok, thank you." I told her, shyly.
I sat down next to Megan, Jewel and Olivia and we started talking about how nice Mrs. Korhman was. We rotated between Mr. McCloud, Mrs. Giesler, Mr. Emmi, Ms. Weage, Ms. Share. They were really nice teachers and I hope I get them as my teacher next year! They're all so nice I can't wait until next year!

Summer Packet

When I woke up on Saturday, I slowly, Slowly went into the kitchen, where I saw my dad reading something.
"Good morning." I told him and he responded with a "Good morning Shin Be."
"What's that?" I asked pointing to the large packet he was reading.
"Oh, that's your summer packet." He told me.
"What!? That things huge!" I exclaimed.
"You have to read King Arthur too, for the language arts section of it."  He told me. After I ate breakfast I looked at the packet and decided to get a head start. I did the vocabulary section about words from the King Arthur book. I'm going to work on a little more when I get the King Arthur book, so I can read it and answer the questions. 

Teacher Letter

Today as I was sitting on the bus playing on my Ipad, Amanda leaned over to me and said "Hey, Jewel said that she's in Korman and so are you, Olivia and Megan C." She told me.
"Really?" I asked. "Yes, I'm with Megan and Jewel and Olivia. I'm glad because I know all them pretty well and they really nice. I know that I'm going to have to spend my time so you can get everything done and not scramble to do it at the last minute. I'm really excited for 7th grade.

Wonder

Here is the link to my Wonder Digital Essay: 
Shin Be's Wonder Essay

Strohs

"What should I get?" I asked. I was at Stroh's Ice cream place, I just ran there from school with the track team. I ran there with Vivian and Josie. We were standing inside when Amanda came up to us and said, "Hey, do you guys want water, 'cause there's water over there?"
"Sure!" We all replied in unison.  Soon enough Amanda came over almost dropping 1 of the cups she was holding. In the end I ordered  one scoop of rainbow sherbet and one scoop of lemon sorbet. Vivian got the same thing as I did and I loved it! Partly because I just ran 1 and 1/2 miles and partly because it tasted good. I'm signing up for track again next year but not cross country because I have forensics and science Olympiad. But at least I'm doing track!

AHW

"Oh, we're going somewhere at 6:00." My dad told me right after I got off the bus and he said hello.
"Ooo, where? Where? Where" I eagerly asked.
"Ok, I was on the computer all day looking for places you can volunteer at. But everywhere said you have to be at least 16 years old, but the Library said that you can volunteer there, and you can count it as community service." My dad told me.
"Oh, that's great! Are you sure that it'll count?" I asked.
"Yes, I'm positive."  He said. I'm really excited for the meeting, and we have to get there early because they don't accept everyone. I think its first come, first serve, if you already registered. I can only do some of the events, but its going to be at least 5 hours, which is good. I can't wait until the summer time because I have so much stuff to do! I can't wait:)

Concert!
Thursday is the day when I have to preform my solo song with Catherine. We've only had about 1 week to practice the song, but my dad told me not to make excuses for myself. We're going to meet on Tuesday during choice hour and before the concert this Thursday. I really hope we can get it to sound really good and professional! I also excited for the whole orchestra songs, which are Cannon Power, Dark Visions and House of Untold Horrors. My favorite is House of Untold Horrors, then Dark Visions then Cannon Power. I can't wait 'till Thursday.
