my feature story...i guess :3

  During the summer of '10, even though it was eaten up mostly by summer gym, my family and I still managed to fit in a short trip to Tennesse.
             No on was in love with the idea, but noone was opposed to the idea either of going to Tennesse. So it was then decided that the family would take one heck of a long road trip to Tennesse.
"How about we goto Tennesse instead of Michigan," Mom said.

"Are we there yet," Katie said.
      That was one of the only things my sister managed to say to anyone on the whole ride down to our cabin.
            
          As we arrived at our cabin, an arrange of noises that sounded other-worldly compared to our rare occasions of hearing a cricket chirp.

         Inside the cabin was a different story. The family felt right at home in the cabin called "Western Skies".





                                       Look out for the next part coming soon

a day in intro journalism

 Hmmmmm, well in journalism today we didn't do a whole lot, we just read the rest of the feature story Mrs. Kelly's Monster, took notes on feature stories and answered questions about feature stories in the yearbook from last year. At least we don't have homework!

You're thinking of a carrot right?


If not, you're among the 2% of the population whose minds are warped enough to think of something else. 98% of people will answer with carrot when given this exercise.

Freaky, huh?
