About Ashlee

This is a little something that I wrote about my friend Ashlee. She is a great friend. I met her in Elementary. I was sad when I moved away from her. I will never for get Ashlee. Read this so you will know a little about her

The Amazing Ashlee

At first glance Ashlee looks like an ordinary person, but she is not that at all. I have known Ashlee since we were in 1st grade. She is smart, pretty and does many things in her life. Ashlee is a very intelligent person, but she can also act like a “dumb blond” at the same time.

Ashlee is one of the smartest people I know. She gets lots of A's on her report card. I don't even think she has gotten any thing lower than an A in her classes. Although Ashlee is very smart school wise, she is not smart in the real world. She asks a lot of questions like, "Do octopuses eat ships?" I mean come on! Ashlee was even in 6th grade when she asked that question. She also doesn't realize certain things that I would think ordinary people would realize. Like the time when she got out of class with her shoes on the wrong feet. When I asked her about it she said that she couldn't feel the difference. Being smart (school wise) is not all Ashlee has going for her.

Ashlee is very pretty. She is very tan and has dark brown hair that goes down to her lower back. She is barely 5 feet and is in the 9th grade. Even though she is short she is very muscular, which makes her a very strong person. The reason I think she is so strong is because she has been in dance for about 11 or 12 years. Besides being strong and pretty she also does many unique things.

Ashlee does many different things in her life. An example of Ashlee being that happened when we were over at our friend's house making popcorn for a movie. Once the popcorn was done she tasted it then spit it out and said, "It needs more salt!" She hurried over, grabbed the salt and put about a half of cup in it. Then she tasted it again and said, "That's more like it." Another example of her doing unique things is when she pops her back. Every time I see Ashlee she is either popping her back or doing some kind of twisting. I think she does that a lot because she is on the cheerleading squad for North Layton Jr. High. She has made it every time she has tried out. I bet she will even make it when she goes to high school next year.

Ashlee may seem like an ordinary person, but as you can see she is not. In my opinion Ashlee is a very amazing person. So the next time you see a person who is smart, pretty and can do many unique things think of Ashlee.

The loose Tooth

This a story that I wrote in 8th grade. Tell me what you think of it and what I could do to improve it.

The Loose Tooth

In the town of Cheeseville lived a family of five. There were two girls named Sarah and Ashlee, their brother Mike, and their mom and dad. Ashlee, Sarah and Mike loved to play soccer. They were even on the same team. One day they were playing a soccer game. The score was 6 to 5 with 15 seconds left. They were loosing. Ashlee had the ball, she passed it to Mike, he passed it to Sarah and all of a sudden, ‘Smack’. They all ran into each other. “Oww,” they screamed. Score! The other team just made a point. The game was over. The score was 5 to 7, they lost. As they were driving home Ashlee felt her teeth and one of them were loose. “Ahh,” she screamed, “my tooth is loose!” “It’s ok,” said mom. “That’s good because you will get money if you put in under your pillow,” said Mike. “Wow, that’s awesome,” said Sarah.


When they got home and changed their clothes, Ashlee was curious about her loose tooth so she went to ask Mike about it. “Mike,” she said, “tell me about my loose tooth.” “Well,” said Mike, “the tooth fairy will come in the middle of the night and she will take the tooth that you put under your pillow. She replaces it with some money,” said Mike. “Really, how much?” asked Ashlee. “Well it depends on the tooth,” said Mike. “I am going to pull it out right now,” said Ashlee.
“Mom will you pull out my tooth?” asked Ashlee. “Sure, but only if it’s ready,” said mom. “It has to be!” exclaimed Ashlee. “It’s stuck!” mom said. “What?” asked Ashlee. “Honey, I’m sorry but you will just have to wait until it’s ready,” said mom. “I don’t want to wait,” said Ashlee, “I’ll just tie a string to my tooth and connect it to the door knob and then pull.” So Ashlee got some string and Sarah to help her shut the door. She tried it, but it didn’t work. It just hurt really badly. She thought since it hurt it was looser so she tried having Sarah punch her in the face, but that hurt even more. She finally gave up and decided to go downstairs to have a snack.


Ashlee decided to have an apple. After that she went to talk with her dad. Ashlee asked, “Dad, when do loose teeth come out?” Dad said, “It depends on how loose your tooth is. Let me wiggle it so I can see how loose it is.” “Ok!” Ashlee exclaimed. “What tooth is it?” said dad. “It’s the tooth on the top, to the left,” said Ashlee. “There’s no tooth there,” he said, “it already fell out.” Ashlee said, “Wow, how…oh my goodness where do you think it went? Oh… my apple. It’s probably in my apple.” She hurried and ran downstairs into the kitchen. “My tooth,” she said, “I’m going to put it under my pillow right now”, said Ashlee.


The next day she woke up early and found $5.00 under her pillow. Ever since then she always looked forward to the next time she would have a loose tooth.

Vacation Time!

My family and I always go to Florida every other year. So let me tell you a little bit about my last visit there. We had to get many things prepared before we left, like shop for shorts, sandals, sunglasses, etc. So the day finally came that we would leave. We went to the airport got our tickets printed, dropped of our luggage and got on the plane. I don't know about you, but I am terrified of airplanes. I hate highs, and the thought of falling was just too unbearable for me. So I criedwhen we took off, turned, and landed. We had a layover in Atlanta for about 2 hours, then we got back on the plane, and again I cried during those three things. Then finally we landed in Orlando, Florida. We got our luggage and headed to our hotel. We only stayed in that hotel for 3 days and then we went to the Disney World hotel. I was awesome! It was way better than our last hotel.

Our family had planned what we were going to do for the rest of the week. First we were going to Magic Kingdom in Disney World. So when that day came we got up early so we could catch the shuttle bus that would take us there. I would have to say that that park was not my favorite. It wasn't that fun because it was all baby rides. I hoped that the next day would be more fun.

So the next day came. That day we decided to go to MGM studios. I had so much fun it had a lot of neat shows. Like a car stunt show, Indiana Jones, and Pirates of the Caribbean. I was sad that when we had to leave.

The next day was raining so we just went to see a movie. The movie was Shrek the Third. That show is hilarious. You just have to see it.

I was glad that the next day didn't rain because that was the day that we went to Universal Studios and Island of Adventure. Out of those two Island of Adventure is more fun. Universal is just so OLD. It needs some new rides. Island of Adventure on the other hand has new rides and they have great coasters, like the Incredible Hulk, Woody the Wood Pecker, The Dueling Dragons, The Unicorn, etc.

I only had two more days left in Florida and one of the days was traveling back. So basically I only had one. And on that one day I had a very neat experience. That day we traveled to the Banana River. That was the spot where everyone watched the space shuttle lift off. It was an amazing experience I will never forget.

The next day we traveled home. Which I hated, one the airplane ride ( it was way bumpy,) two leaving the most awesome vacation spot ever. I can't wait to go there again in two years.

Party!

One of my favorite times that I had with my friends was going to a party at Audrey's house. I don't think I will ever forget that day. It all started at lunch all of my friends were planning out what we would do the coming up weekend. Finally we decided that we would go over to Audrey's house for a scary movie and a sleepover. Well, it was a few days before her party and she wasn't at school. I really didn't think much of it at the time because she could just be at the dentist. The next day came and she still wasn't there. Now I was getting worried. What if she doesn't come to school on Friday? Did that mean that Audrey's party was going to be canceled? After thinking that, I decided that I was going to call her after school. School finally got over and I rushed home to call her. When she answered I asked her why she wasn't coming to school she said that she was sick, but was still planning on the party the next day. Hearing those specific words I was relieved that it was not canceled.

Friday finally came and Audrey still was not at school. "Great", I thought, "No Audrey no party." I talked with my friends during lunch to see what we would do. We decided to call Audrey again to make sure that she wasn't having it and if she wasn't then my other friend Alyssa would have it at her house. Once school got over we called her. She said that she was feeling fine and wouldn't miss this party for anything. I was again relived that the party was still on. So I went home got all of my sleepover stuff and went to her house. We waited outside for our friends' cars to come by. By the time everyone came over it was late. They put their stuff in Audrey's house then we walked to Boman's (I really like Boman's because the donuts are cheap, unlike Smiths or Dans) and got some snacks. "It's getting late," someone said, "maybe we should head back." So we went back to Audrey's house. We then remembered that there was a Layton/Davis game going on. We wanted to go to that, but it was way too dark to walk so Mrs. Hall (Audrey's mom) drove us. Davis lost by a land slide. Its team wasn't that good. The game was not that fun, so we went home.

It was time for the scary movie. Not everyone was brave enough to watch it only me, Alyssa, Alexis, Mariah, Danny, Audrey, Teal and Jessica. Everyone else just went downstairs. I have to admit that "Pulse" is a pretty scary movie FOR BABIES! It was the dumbest show I have ever seen. It was a big waist of my time. I can sum up the movie in 17 words. Computer virus takes over and the main character has to live a new life in the country. Boring! Anyway back to the story. So once the movie was over we decided to go to bed. We woke up late and ate breakfast. I had to leave a bit earlier because I had things to do that day.

I loved that party! I am glad to have such great friends who are way fun. We plan to have parties like that soon.
