My Rules of life

                                                             Rules

1) Never lie always tell the truth because when you lie you will get in even more trouble than what you were in, in the first place.

2)Always be helpful to the people you love and even if you don't like or love them you should always be respectful and helpful.

3)Do your work because if you don't you will regret it later and you will not get where you want to in life.

4)If someone tells you something never tell it to other people because you may lose a very good friend and you will not be trusted anymore.

5)Never hold something off because when you hold it off you will forget about it and end up not doing it.

The Message in this story is that the littlest things can change some ones life even if it is by accident.

Valentines Day

The Leftover Valentine

It was Sunday, the day before Valentine's Day, and Amy had almost finished addressing all the Valentines to give to her friends and family. The last one was going to her mother. Amy wrote 'I love you' on the Valentine, then said aloud "Oh no! I've already written one for Mom!" She put the Valentine aside and started packing the finished ones into her backpack. She was going over to her friend, Sarah's house to look at all of the Valentines they had both made, before giving them to everyone tomorrow. As Amy put on her backpack, she didn't notice that the leftover Valentine was stuck to the side of her pack. Amy was a very happy little girl. She loved her family, and she had lots of good friends. As Amy skipped along the sidewalk to Sarah's house, she had no idea that what was about to happen would change someone's life... Jessica was one of Amy's classmates. She was a sad and lonely little girl. Her family had just recently moved to the area, and she hadn't made any friends yet, as she was very shy. Today Jessica decided to go for a walk to the nearby park. She hadn't been there before, and was reading the street signs, when... all of a sudden... BANG! She collided with Amy, who had come skipping out from around the corner. "OUCH!" they both cried out at once. Neither of them were seriously hurt, and they apologized to one another, both girls admitting that they weren't watching where they were going. Amy and Jessica straightened themselves out, apologized again, and continuedon their separate ways. Neither girl noticed that the Valentine, which had been stuck to Amy's backpack, had come loose during their collision. It had flown up into the air, and landed right in Jessica's coat pocket! The next day was Valentine's Day, and Jessica wasn't looking forward to going to school. She knew that all the other children would get lots of Valentines from each other, and because she had no friends, Jessica probably would not receive any Valentines at all. It was a long day for Jessica. She did get a few Valentines, but not nearly as many as the other children. "Oh well", she thought to herself; "At least I know that my family loves me." Jessica was relieved when the final school- bell rang, and she put on her coat to go home. As she walked down the street toward her house, she watched the other children walking with their friends, chatting happily together, and she wished that she had a friend too. It was an especially cold day that day, and as Jessicaput her hands in her pockets to keep warm, she felt something strange. What was in her pocket? Jessica couldn't believe her eyes: A Valentine! A SECRET Valentine! And someone had written "I Love you"! Who could have given her this Valentine? It was the happiest day of Jessica's life. It didn't even matter who it was from. Just knowing that someone cared enough to write that message to her, was all that Jessica needed to know. She began to skip along the sidewalk, and didn't stop skipping until she was home. Little did she know that things were about to get even better... Shortly after Jessica arrived home, there was a knock at the door, and Jessica's mother called, "Jessica! You have a friend here to see you!" A friend? Jessica wondered who it could be. As she neared the hallway, she could see that it was Amy. "Hi Jessica", said Amy; "I felt so badly about running into you yesterday, that I just wanted to be sure you were okay. I'm sorry I didn't ask you in school - sometimes I'm a little bit shy. I brought this for you. I hope you like it." Amy handed Jessica a Valentine. Jessica was delighted. "Thank you" she said, "It's beautiful! Would you like to come in and visit for awhile?" Amy accepted the invitation, and in no time at all, the girls were laughing and talking just like old friends. Jessica told Amy about the Valentine she had found in her coat pocket. She told her how good it had made her feel when she was feeling so lonely; and then she showed the Valentine to Amy. Amy recognized it immediately, though she had no idea how it could have ended up in Jessica's pocket; but she didn't tell Jessica that it was really her leftover Valentine. Amy knew how important that Valentine was to Jessica. After that day, Amy and Jessica visited each other often. Amy introduced Jessica to all of her friends, and made her feel very special. Jessica never forgot the wonderful feeling she got from finding that Valentine in her pocket. The following year, on Valentines Day, Jessica made Valentines for every person in her class; but for the children who didn't have as many friends, she secretly gave an extra Valentine - a very special Valentine that said "I Love You".

Like when I’m going away and I find out news about that place I’m going to and I get told not to hang out with a group of people because something bad happened I will try to figure everything out so that I can give information to the adults that were hurt In any situation.

Holes Theme

Holes Theme

1) The theme of holes is that you should never commit crime. Or else you will end up in jail or a place like camp green lake.

2) You should never cover ( take blame) for someone that you barley even know, because if you do they might say that you do everything bad that happens and think that you don’t care because you took blame one time before that.

3) You should help some one in need and don’t give up if they do you might give them hope and you may even end up BFF’s!!!!
