The Story Of the Majestic Island

Hello! Today I will be telling you the story of this island.

The Story Of the Majestic Island
By Meaghan

Hello! My name is Yura Stinker. Do you see that little person up on that bridge? That's me! Do you want to hear the story of how I got up on that bride? Well of course you do!

On this day in 1964, I was born. I was born on right on this island here! But, my parents didn't want to share the island with anyone else! So, they threw me off of the island. Turns out they did that with like 48 other kids too. I turned out to be the lucky baby because I feel right down into a boat! The other kids landed in the water and were eaten by the killer mermaids. 

Yep, that is one thing my parents got to protect the island, KILLER MERMAIDS! Pretty awesome but if you are getting eaten by one, not so much. 

So, back to the story. I landed into a boat! But, the bad part about that was that it had two thieves in it, who had stolen some magic. There is one good thing about me falling into the boat, I fell right into a pot of magic! It granted me some magical powers that you will learn about later. Just as I fell into the pot and I was swimming around, doing whatever babies do in pots of magic, A thief noticed me and pulled me out of the pot.

"Hey, Gus look at this! I found a baby in the pot of magic!" The big dude bellowed as he held me by my foot.

"What are we gonna do with it, Rambo?" A small guy, Gus, Asked 

"I don't know! It's a baby. Maybe we could teach it how to be a thief." The Rambo said again

"Good idea!"Gus said

Five Years Later
Gus and Rambo, My family, had taught me to be an amazing thief. No one suspected a five year old to be robbing a bank or pick pocketing you. We were stealing from banks every day and no one had caught us. This life is AWESOME!

Fast Forward 24 years later

I can't believe Gus AND Rambo are both dead now! Well, at least now I can go back to the island and find my real parents. I always thought that Gus and Rambo were my parents but today, when Rambo died, he told me the truth. Today, I will go search for my REAL parents!

Two Years Later

I can't believe how far away this island is! I don't think these directions are correct! I hope I get to my parents soon and I hope they are happy to see me. Wait, how did Gus and Rambo end up bei-CHOMP.
"WHAT IS THAT?!" I shouted as I heard 6 more chomps. I looked over the side and I saw 4 mermaids chomping on the side of my boat. "Hey! What are you 4 DOING?!" I shouted

"Oh! Hi. We are just eating boat so that you will fall in the water and then we will eat you." One of the four shouted up and began to eat my boat again.

"SAY WHAT!?!!?!" I shouted down. Oh no oh no! I don't want to be eaten! I shouted in my head and clamped my eyes shut. I wished I was anywhere else but here. Anywhere else! And then suddenly my feet were on dry land!

"Wait, what?" I opened my eyes and looked around. I took a sharp breath in and held it. I remembered this place. It was were my parents had dropped me off a cliff. I remembered everything now. My mom bringing me to the ledge and then dropping me off. I looked around and saw a straw hut. I started to run towards it and I picked up speed. When I reached the huts I burst in the room. All that was in there was an old man. I walked up to him and tapped him on the shoulder. It was all bone. His skeleton fell off of the chair and looked at me with it's dark sockets. "Ahh!" I screamed as he fell over. I bent over and picked him up. I walked to the side of the island and screamed "HEY YOU, KILLER MERMAIDS! I GOT SOMETHING FOR YOU!" as I threw my father over the side of the cliff. I went around looking for my mom but all I found was a small grave marker with what I thought her name might have been.

5 years later

So, now you know how I got to be the owner of this island! It was very fun telling you my story and I hope to see you again soon!

Lilly and Sammy save the world!

I really enjoyed writing this story because I felt like I could do anything with it. I had a lot of fun doing the pictures and the actual writing for this. I am really happy with the finished product of this story and I hope you guys are too! Make sure you read the whole book to see what happens with Lord Bottom Tickler and Lilly!

In one of my first pictures, Lilly has 2 arms. In the story she DOES NOT have 2 arms! Don't let this picture mislead you!

Christalite Methodist Home part 2

Today we went to the Christalite Methodist Home again. But, this time instead of doing santa hats,we did heart decorating and necklace/bracelet making.

I think I had a much better time this time than last time. I say this because I felt more engaged in what we were doing with the old folks. The woman I was working with asked me to do stuff until she got the hang of it. Her friend that she had brought along could speak both english and chinese. She helped me understand what my lady wanted and I was very happy that she was willing to do that.

I got two valentines from the two lady's! I didn't really help her friend but she still gave me her valentine that she made. My lady gave me her valentine too! She took a fancy to the sparkly sequence and let me tell that if you shined it in the sun and into someone's eyes you could very well blind them!

I think this was a bunch of fun and I hope we can go back soon! I know I had the best time ever because that hour seemed like 10 minutes!

P.E. Fitness Assessment

For my P.E. Fitness Assessment I was not happy with some of my scores and I really need to work on some.

For my pushups I did not reach the healthy range. I think I need to start doing pushups once or twice a week for 10 minutes. I am really sad that I did not do as many as I should have done and I really want to reach the healthy range. I hope I can do better by our second fitness assessment!


For my Pacer test I was almost at the healthy range with a score of 16 paces. I am running pretty much every day so I hope that my running will improve! I mostly run for 1hr and 30 min or more almost every day so I think that will improve my pacer score.

For my curl-ups I was not in the healthy range. Along with doing pushups for 10 minutes,I will do curl-ups for 10 minutes also.

For my sit and reach I was in the healthy range with a score of 25. I am very proud of myself.
