Abraham Lincoln the Beat Boxer

Abraham Lincoln was the 16th President of the United States. He was president during the Civil War, and aside from trying to stop slavery and being honest he had one special hidden talent. One day in the Oval Office, a man brought president Lincoln a boombox. There was no other thing like this at the time, so of course Lincoln was confused when he first tried to use it. The man showed him how simple it was to turn it on and off and how it works. He showed him the different stations for playing the music, but since no other stations had been made, the air was dead. So the man handed Lincoln a tape of music with only five songs on it. President Lincoln listened to these songs so much that he memorized the beats of the song and could soon copy them perfectly, becoming the world's first beat boxer.

My Lost Track Bag

 

On Tuesday I went to go help the high school with their meet. I was going to help rake and measure for the long and triple jump just like I had at the Early Bird Invitational. The night before I wasn't sure if we we're supposed to wear our track uniforms to help or not. I couldn't reach any coaches so I just decided to pack my uniform up in my sinch sack and take it anyway. When I got to school that day I was told that I wouldn't need to wear it. When school was over I walked down to the track and set my things down at the bullpen. I walked down to the other side of the field where the long and triple jump were and started working. At about 4:45 I asked my friend Shandon to go get my things. When he came back he asked and made sure that he had grabbed everything. I looked and said he had, even though I hadn't realized my bag with my track uniform wasn't there. Today I was supposed to run the open mile at the Desoto track meet. Now I don't know if I can or if I'll even be able to find my uniform. 

 

Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children

 

Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children is the best book I've ever read. In this book a young boy must go to an island to learn about his grandfather's past after finding old pictures while going through his things after he dies. He soon finds on this island that there is a secret passage, and when you go through it you go back in time. He finds a whole house of children with peculiar talents, such as levitating or holding boulders above their heads. The master of the house Miss Peregrine is a lady that can change into a bird. She creates the loop for the children to live in and hide from the monsters that are hunting them. In their loop, one day keeps repeating over and over again, making none of the kids age and forever keeping them the age they are. He soon find that he needs to help protect them and the adventure begins.

You have a Package

Another one came today. We have so many piled in the back of the house it's crazy. No one knows who is dropping them off, there's just a short ring on the doorbell and there they are. The package says "Whole Human." We don't even now what humans are. They're all weird with pale skin and long limbs, no of them look the same which is odd considering here, we all are the exact same. Some of them are starting to move like they're alive, but parents say not to touch them after we have set them down. They came with cushion on the bottom that suggests they're valuable. Right now it's a mystery, but I intend on solving it.
