Story Time Moment: The Volcano


Okay, so I love writing. I love it just as much as I love reading – which is a lot! Looking back, I wrote some strange stories, such as Gothic tales of Snow White and Hansel and Gretel, to New York surviving a mega hurricane consisting of two former hurricanes. Sadly, the above examples have long since been lost, but one of the few stories I still have in my possession was written when I was in the fifth grade. This is that story!


The Volcano

     On Saturday, my friend and I went to Wheeler Street, to see a couple of friends at a volcano. When we got there, we walked around the volcano a couple of times then they wanted one of us to go inside the volcano.

     When no one volunteered to go inside the volcano they started arguing and fighting. Even though I felt scared, I volunteered to go inside the volcano to stop the fighting and arguing.

     When I stepped down into the volcano it was pitch black. I took out my flashlight and saw a tunnel. I went in the tunnel and saw this ten foot snake jumping out at me! I jumped on a vine and jumped into another tunnel as fast as I could.

     I looked as hard as I could and saw a skeleton coming at me. I didn’t know what to do so I fainted. When I woke up I was on a piece of land.

     I got up and saw a big crack in the land coming at me. I couldn’t go anywhere or move. Then one of my friends threw me a rope and pulled me up.

     When I got up they all asked me questions about how I liked it being inside the volcano and how scary was it. I told them it wasn’t much to it just tunnels and creatures and that it was a dangerous place.

If Easter Had A First Newspaper

I felt inspired to write something for the Easter holiday, so I wondered what it would be like if there was a newspaper article during the time of Jesus Christ's arrest, sentencing, and death...and then some! It's meant to be fun, but also make you think about what it would be like during that time with the news media involved.

You can read the "article" here!

Kyle_knight106: I thought Facebook was for stalking liking statuses of random happenings and sayings.

Sarah_Sparkle4: No, it's for adding strangers to your 'friend' count so that you appear as though you're very popular in real life.

Sarah_Sparkle4: Crap, Facebook is going so slow. It's taking forever to gather all my crops.
