Once there was a pickle named Herbert and he was very annoying. He met a girl pickle named Fanny which was always surrounded by girls. Herbert and Fanny became friends when they accidentally bumped into each other in the hallway. They did everything together, like going to the same pickle school together. 

One day Herbert had this weird feeling that he might like Fanny. He would always talk about her to his pickle parents. Fanny had never liked someone in her life, so she didn’t know what loving someone felt like. They always saw each other on the bus, just walking around, and even when they both went out to go somewhere. Everyone thought they were dating because Fanny was popular so if they hung out people would suspect stuff. They both heard a bunch of rumors that they were dating, but they didn’t say no because they both liked each other. When Fanny and Herbert were talking or even just sitting in class they couldn’t keep their eyes off each other.

 

The next day Herbert decided not to sit with Fanny anymore because he couldn’t handle all of his feelings. He really wanted to be more than friends but he had never had a girlfriend before. Fanny noticed that he was ignoring her and she didn’t know how to approach this conflict. Fanny thought she lost her best friend forever. They didn’t even hang out with each other for the rest of the year. Fanny never knew what she did to hurt Herbert. It was this day where it all got worse, not just for Fanny, but for Herbert too. Fanny heard that Herbert had gotten into a crash while driving to pickleball. Herbert had gotten a concussion and wasn’t able to play pickleball for a while. Fanny went to the hospital and saw him lying there, all stiff and never moved. Fanny couldn’t help but cry for him because he was going through a lot. Herbert woke up when he heard Fanny crying. He was so surprised when he saw her standing right in front of him balling her eyes out. Herbert couldn’t help but say “I like you”. Fanny felt her heart grow so big that she blushed so hard. For a long time, she was always waiting to hear those three words “I like you”. 

Life without grandparents is hard. No Christmas or Thanksgiving. No days alone with them. No stories from their past life. Children without grandparents have a hole in their heart that will never be filled in by anything. Grandparents can have a big influence on young kids and teens. They can teach them love and patience, and coach them in their early stages of life. Telling them what and what not to do. When parents can’t do their job as parents, most grandparents will step in and take the children under their wing, but that doesn’t happen if you don’t have any grandparents. Kids without grandparents have to fight a little bit harder in life. They are surrounded by all their friends grandparents. So ederly people will try to be adopted grandparents to these kids, but it’s never the same. If a kid has grandparents, they wouldn’t think anything of it, but like us kids who don’t, we would give the world to have one day with our true grandparents. But we are faced with reality, and have to just soak all of it in. All the things other children get to do with their grandparents makes the kids who have none feel helpless. Hearing all of the fun things that they do and the memories that they make makes us feel worse. But can we do anything about. Depends. You could sit back and let all of this reality conquer you, or you can do something about it. 

Doing something with our parents or siblings will turn our back on having no grandparents. We make the best out of our situation and do things that grandparents would never do. Like going to a go-kart track or taking a ski trip. While other kids are sitting down with their grandparents for an old-timey meal, we no-grandparent kids are exploring the world. We are going places and doing things. Things that make us feel stronger than any ordinary person with grandparents. Yes, maybe it is a little sad and that hole in our hearts will never go away, but we also experience things that none of your grandparents would ever think of doing.

Welcome back to the don’t starve world or game but its part three maybe the last one or might continue it. So today we will be talking more about hamlet the newer DLC that came out in late 2019.

In hamlet, they added a temple or should I say “Ancient Pig Ruins” In the ruins are mobs creatures yay my favorite. The mobs included in the Pig Ruins are Scorpions, Bats ( Just like the cave in the original game), and Vipers (snakes). You are twice as fast as the vipers so most likely you won’t get hit.

Inside the temples are pressure plates that summon things of some sort. There are suspicious cracks you can look into them more with the magnifying glass and it may conceal a door sometimes in there the only way you know if its a door if your character explains something about it. You can destroy the crack by using gunpowder or coconades and more. Inside would be an ancient pedal stool that can give you gems or random items like the shadow sword that only maxwell spawns with but wearing or using it causes your sanity to drop slowly but it’s powerful to use.

In hamlet, it has a lot of theories like that Wilson discovers a lost town of aristocratic pigs with shops and houses. Shops, You can trade, buy, and sell items that you need or don’t need using Oinc its a coin currency that you use to buy and trade. By getting Oinc you need to work around the town by either picking up manure and the closest pig will give you a coin to use in shops. There will be a cooldown from the pigs after getting paid. 

There are also different coins like the ten-piece Oinc and a centa-piece Oinc

Regular  Oinc

Ten-piece Oinc

 Centa-piece Oinc

In Hamlethamlet, they apparently updated charlie so that his attacks are slower but still sometimes fast it can take charlie 5-10 seconds to hit you. Charlie only does -100 health and -20 sanity each hit which is madness because it can take 2 hits for you to die. When you fully upgrade WX-78 he can have up to 500 health but it can take 5 hits to kill you so you could last a minute with that because it can take another 5-10 seconds to attack again. 

Armor in the game can be good but when it gets to the point when your past wood armor you would expect to get marble because it’s stronger right? no, don’t make it because it slows you down by 30% of you speed. Sometimes in situations it can be bad cause your slow and slow enough can get you killed but it does protect you very well.

Actually now I think about it might be a little OP? Why because it absorbs 95% of physical damage WHAT that’s crazy and acts like you HAVE 2850 THAT’S INSANE when you are in a boss fight you might need to bring this along. If you’re going to bring it to a fight you must do the swap trick with kiting when you are fighting a boss and you go to attack it swap to a different armor set that makes you faster then after hitting hit swap back to the marble suit.

It’s best to use it on WX-78 or Wolfgang.

Welcome to my world well, my Minecraft world, its a long story so I’ll start from the beginning. 

Chapter 1: A new beginning

“Ah, it’s so nice and calm on this beach I bet I can make such a nice house. Perfect spruce trees all around, my favorite. I think this small, well medium house will fit great on the edge of the beach. All done, wow is that an on-land shipwreck!” 

“I’ll go and explore it, aw nice some enchanted leather armor, an enchantment book with Unbreaking One and Silk Touch too, a diamond, and an emerald. Oh no, it’s almost night I better get to my house before mobs spawn in.”

 “Finally, I survived the night. I better make a protective system so I get protected from the creatures of the night. First I shall make some stone tools, but I need some wood for my house still and for some sticks. All done, I can’t wait until I finish my house it will be so big. I will dig a pit ware my entrance shall be parkour in order to get in without mobs coming in as well. And on the left will be my mine but it will be open to mobs so I will build a wall that intervenes between my house and the mine. I’ll start that today.”

“Oh yes, I found a cave right outside my house tomorrow I will get some iron and make better tools and armor. Now I’m going to put berries in the pit for food and so any mobs that fall in getting stabbed by the berrie’s branches. Now that I got a good night’s sleep I’ll go to the mine since I have better armor and better tools as well.”

 “Oh my gosh, I found Diamonds and tons of Iron and coal! After a day of mining, I got 5 diamonds 38 pieces of iron and 29 pieces of c- oh no it’s night. Run!”

  “I made it and only got shot one time by a skeleton. I will continue to upgrade my tools with enchantment books and diamonds. Oh great, it’s raining just when I thought it was going to be a nice morning.” 

 I heard that you and mom got into a fight

If that’s really why you left then why’d you call last night?

It feels like all you ever do is control my life

But why you gotta put me through that, why’d I have to go through that?

I heard that you and mom got into a fight

You don’t regret it though, mom learned from it

They should have you locked up from all the times you lied to us

Put me down when I had nobody

Only person you ever cared about was you, that’s why it’s so funny

You want someone that’ll keep you warm at night, then tell me, why are you acting cold to me?

You ain’t the only one to blame, no

I’m the one who made you rich when I bought every lie you sold to me

Heard you forgot about the pictures, but you still got the memories of us, so I guess that don’t really make a difference

Flippin’ through them in your mind, got you texting me all hours any night 

You told me you needed distance 

What’s the deal with you?

You say you want a daughter that keeps it real

Then why you get mad when I get real with you?

You want someone to take the blame for you

Went from being happy to now i’m crying for you liar

I heard that you and mom got into a fight

If that’s really why you left then why’d you call last night?

It feels like all you ever do is control my life

But why you gotta put me through that, why’d I have to go through that?

Look let me guess you wanna stay in touch

Asking me how I have been

Telling me that we’ve been barely even speaking

All this kinda funny why don’t you visit every weekend

It’s hurting me to the point where I ain’t even sleeping

You just want a daughter you can chill and watch a game with, cool

You always hit me on the weekends, telling me you missed the way we talked and how you’ll listen

Why you playing with my mind?

Why you playing with my time?

Told me we should let it go and put it all behind us

That’s what you did, now you are asking why i’m still mad

I wasn’t excited for this day, I saw it coming

I think you just like attention, trying to tell me all this new stuff

I got issues of my own, I ain’t got time for all this drama

You told me you really wanna talk, then why aren’t you calling, huh?

Martin Meylin is reducing a subject and I think that it should be Library/Computers. It should be library/computers because we don’t really do much other than learn about internet safety. I think that internet safety is important but I think if we had more common sense then we would already know this. I don’t really know why we are learning about internet safety now because we used chromebooks since 4th grade. I think that we shouldn’t take this long to learn about that. 

Another reason is that it helps find books. I don’t really think that anybody looks on chromebooks for books that we can just look for in our library. Like I find that as unnecessary because all your doing is looking at books when you could just go to the library.  

Last we do a research project for nothing. Other than seeing if a website is reliable but like we could just do a paper on it we don’t have to do a whole research project on it. I find it kinda dumb that we have to do that because all you would really check is the website so I don’t really get the point. Also we should have more time at gym because when people grow up to be fit you can thank me. Yes  people may think that it is useful to know internet safety but we have been using these chromebooks since 4th grade and we could have learned about safety then. 

This is why I think that we should cut library and computers. Because we write a project that doesn’t relate to anything, nobody uses chromebooks to look for books when we have a library already, and last we should have learned about internet safety already.

Hi, I’m ____. A fun, loving teen who loves to party. I absolutely love school. In fact, the sound of my 5:55 am alarm each morning is my favorite sound of all. When my alarm goes off, that means another amazing, fabulous day! Yay! False. My morning routine consists of me waking up to my ratchet alarm, Party in the USA by Miley Cyrus, at 5:55 am. Despite the loud alarm bell, I always fall asleep again. My mom wakes me up at 6:30 after that, leaving me about 20 minutes to get ready which is not a lot of time for an insecure lunatic like myself. I straighten my greasy hair, fix my eyebrows, apply my mascara, brush my teeth, pee, and head out the door. After that, I wait at my bus stop and make small talk with the from the Dominican Republic. 

“Hey gurl!” she greets, dragging out the “L”.

“Oh, hi.” I say. Bleh. Oh shoot, it’s the bus. I walk up to the do- AHHHH!!! I almost got hit by a frickin car. As I get on the bus, I start to wonder what would happen if that car hit me. Would it be that bad? Eh, whatever. I begin one of my favorite activities of the day, listening to music. I turn on “The Way” by Ariana Grande, that being my favorite song at the moment. 

About 20 minutes of boredom pass and I’ve arrived at school. Yippee. I ❤ school. As I am shoved by other kids going through the door, I start to think of how crappy my day will be. I literally have Spanish, which I hate. I hate everything about it. The chairs are uncomfortable, the people at my table are either extremely annoying or just generally boring, and I have to move around a lot. Just the thought of Spanish class puts me in a bad mood. 

About a minute passes, and boom. There’s a kid, at his locker, wearing a dirty blanket over his shoulders. Ew. Like seriously dude, what is even the point of bringing that rag to school? The teachers always make you take it off anyways. I get my binder, chromebook, and book that I don’t like, and begin walking to homeroom. 

“Technology in your technology bag!!”, a teacher hollars at a random passerby. God, what is it going to take for that woman to shut up? I roll my eyes at the sight, and continue heading to class. I get to my seat with ____and _____ as they talk about random things. 

Homeroom seems to pass slower than normal. The teacher is figuring out how to hit “play” on her computer screen for PTV, and there’s the bell. 

“Beautiful people, drop top designer cloOthes” Ew. Whoever chose that fricking bell is messed up in the head. At least I have ELA today. That’s something. 

“Good morning, friends!” Mrs. Risser says with a smile. 

Ahhhhh I literally hate school so much. 

Ok, so ELA is over now, which means my least favorite classes are coming. HASGdhkuashfkudsahdgkugdus. TIME FOR SPANISH. AHHHGGGGFHGJYHDAHGHDGAJSHD. That’s how I feel about that class. 

“HOLA CLASE!!!!” Senora Mier shouts.

“HOLA!!” a girl shouts in response. God I really don’t like her. Can she just shut up for ONE CLASS?!?

To sum it up, that is the first part of my ratchet day in a nutshell. I hate school so much, and not even in an, “Ew school sucks I hate learning” way, I just hate wasting my life going to a place that I have a legal obligation to go to. It’s very similar to prison in that way. I don’t get enough sleep every night because I’m constantly worried about tests and grades and homework, which keeps me up because I’m so stressed. The one word I would use to describe school is stressful. I used to be a fun girl until middle school. Middle school brought out my worst.

Do you ever feel like you aren’t good enough and that the world is against you? Well, that is how I feel. When things happen to me that I get upset about, I get all depressed and I feel like I can’t do anything. Everyone thinks that I am all happy 24/7 but I’m not. I have feelings that I keep inside of me and then when things get too hectic, I start having a panic attack, I feel like I shouldn’t be here and I just want to curl up and be left alone. The reason why I keep things inside and to myself is because I feel like if I tell someone then they will tell other people and then things get spread around. The reason why I just act like I am happy is because if people find out that I’m not happy I feel like they would just make fun of me.

Life without diabetes was so easy and fun. I could eat anything I wanted, drink anything I             wanted. I could sleep at anyone’s house and be as far away from my parents as I could. Now, I can’t sleepover at anyone’s house, not even my cousins. I have to bolus before every food and drink I eat. And worst of all, I don’t feel good sometimes.

The cons are the worst. Imagine being 13 and everyone thinking you’re fat or unhealthy because you have diabetes. You walk the halls and everyone knows you as  “the girl that has diabetes”. Leaving class to go to the nurse is even worse, all of the students think you’re leaving just to skip class, but worse than that, the teachers think so too. 

My morning routines are kinda different than most kids. I usually wake up at 6:30, but sometimes if I was up all night with my blood sugar I end up getting to sleep in and going into school late. After that, I go eat breakfast, but before that I have to bolus. When I bolus, I give myself insulin from a little pod on my back or arm. (Insulin is what most people’s pancreases give them, but mine literally just died on me so I don’t get it from one, I get it from the pharmacy.). After breakfast, I get dressed and usually try to find something that hides my pump and dexcom. And then I’m on my way to school. School is mostly good with diabetes, and I said “mostly” for a reason. Sometimes my teachers don’t understand that I can’t do work or can’t take a test and it kinda gets frustrating. But on the other hand I have some really good and thoughtful teachers that try to understand their best and let me go whenever I have to. Kids at school don’t usually bother me about my diabetes, but every once and a while I will. Kids usually get confused about what kind of diabetes I have and they think it’s the type you get when you’re overweight. But when they do that, I just laugh and shake it off. Lunch is pretty good when I remember to bolus, but if I don’t, my blood sugar shoots up and I have to miss class. Most kids think I want to miss class but honestly I don’t. When I miss class, I get really behind and my grades start to drop. 

This is what my life without diabetes would be like if I didn’t have it.

Musical.y was a social media that was released in april 2014. It was used to express yourself through lip syncing. Soon, the author of musical.ly, Alex Zhu, decided that he wanted to change it up and get a whole fresh start by changing the name and content. He decided to change it to Tiktok, a video-sharing social media that got released in 2017. The change got musical.ly users mad because of the new name and look. Soon people started to like it a lot more and enjoy watching videos, and making them too. Some people weren’t sure how it was going to do, but it turned out really good. When musical.ly stopped it was worth around $800 million and $1 billion. Now, Tiktok is worth over $75 billion. You might be wondering what the difference of the apps are, Tiktok provides more sounds, dances, and it pays you if you get verified. Which means you get a certain amount of followers and/or views. Many people have become famous from tiktok, some examples are Charli D’Amelio, Chase Hudson, Dixie D’Amelio, Addison Rae, and Avani Gregg. In just under a year, TikTok went from an unknown Chinese-developed app to one of the most popular social media platforms of all time.
