There is black holes. There is 16 moons on Jupiter. There are astrodies. There is a milky way. One of my favorite games takes place in space and it’s called Galaga 88.” (By the way, this is EXACTLY how C talks.)
In the future…”is something different.”

The saddest day of my life was when…I had a very bad dream. Then I woke up.
When I am twenty-one…I will go to Wheel of Fortune alone. I want more money. I will maybe get a car. I might get one million dollars.
A boy or girl who can’t keep a secret…should keep one.
My family is…very nice. My family is very smart. My family knows everything.
A family with no TV…should have one. They may not want one.
A stowaway on a spaceship…is someone that could not go on. They are not allowed on. They don’t go on. They shouldn’t.
A struggling band…is a band who doesn’t work good.
An amateur spy…is someone who is starting to spy.
A foreign exchange student with his/her host family…would be a person that lives with somebody that lives in a different language.
A person shrunk to one-tenth of his/her size…would be boring.
A clerk…gives you money at the store and you buy stuff.
A boy with a magic baseball cap…can turn into anything.

“Hurry up and give me a snuggle! My brain is dissolving!!!”
(From class writing work) I wish I were better at…tennis because it is fun. Next week I might hit the teacher again.
“Someone forted at school today. Oh, yeah, it was ME. And it was FUNNY. And it’s spelled f-o-r-t with an e-d at the end of it.” (It took me several moments to figure out he’s finally learned the real word for what we call “tooting.” But leave it to him to put his own spin on it…)
“Mommy, I do NOT know ANY cow language at ALL.”
