One lesson that I have I learned is that you should always treat people how you would want to be treated. You should always treat others with respect, even if they get on your nerves, or if you really don't know them. The reason I say that is because everyone wants to be treated equal. If you treat people with respect, I can almost guarantee that you will get the same respect back. If your act crumby towards someone, then their probably going to act the same way right back to you. If someone acts crumby to you first, it's not okay to act crumby back, because my mother always told me that two wrongs don't make a right. If someone acts crumby to you and you act nice back, then they'll remember that and be thinking about that, and they'll be like "man I really shouldn't have treated that person that way.". So my lesson that I learned was to always treat others how I would want to be treated.

Comma What?

My father had left our house in the midst of a fight between Lindsey and my mother. My mother was trying to get Lindsey to go with her to the Y to swim. Without thinking, Lindsey had blared, "I'd rather die!", at the top of her lungs. My father watched as my mother froze, then burst fleeing to their bedroom to wail behind the door. He quietly tucked his notebook in his jacket pocket, took the car keys off the hook by the back door, and snuck out.

As the old man approached my friends and me the wind all of a sudden picked up. We started to turn around and walk the other direction but all of a sudden we heard the old man say " Hey you kids." We came to sudden stop. When we turned around there stood a old man that was wearing a beat down blue shirt, some basketball shorts, and had no shoes. It was odd that he was barefoot one of the dirtiest streets in Childress. He asked what we were doing in the middle of the street, but before we had time to reply he said to get over there by the side walk. So as a respectful little boy i grabbed my bicycle and pushed it off to the side of the road.
So there we were standing about a block away from my house wondering what the old man had to say that was so important that he had to interrupt our play time. We were kind of nervous because we didn't know the old man. When everyone had made there way safely to the sidewalk. He approached us with a very disturbed look on his face. He had us line up shoulder to shoulder in a perfect straight line. He paced back and forth from end to end, he stared at us looking us up head to toe. Then all of a sudden he noticed that my friend Patrick had a back pack on. He told Patrick to give him the back pack, but before Patrick could ask why, the old man shouted "Now!".
Patrick took off the back pack and handed it to the old man. As soon as Pat handed him the bag we took off like a bullet shot out of a gun. Everyone made it except Patrick, because as he took off the old man had caught him by the arm and asked " Where do you think your going?". The rest of us had ran around the block and was hiding in the alley watching to see what he was going to do to Patrick. The old man starting going through the backpack like he had lost something in there. All that was in there was a flashlight, shorts, and some deodorant. The old man was acting gibberish. As soon as the old man turned around to set the back pack down Pat took off. He headed to his house, where we met him. We had to take the back way there because the old man was still there. We told Patrick's mom about what happened to us. So she called the police to take care of the problem. The Old Man was arrested, and from that day forward we knew not to ever talk to strangers.

I was in Mrs. Jenkins class and i noticed that when you lean back in your seat they slide quickly across the white floor. When i'm in her class and i need to think i just look up at the big, white ceiling that's above me. If i don't get any ideas i look at the wide posters and pictures that are sitting still on the wall for help. If my thoughts are coming slow then i go outside run and jump around to get some blood flowing to my brain. As i'm jumping i didn't see these two rabbits, but luckily i didn't land on them. There was a boy rabbit, he was a white with red eyes, the girl looked pretty much the same, but she had purple eyes.
