Tracy's diary~Extreme Weather~by fumino

Today was quite a complicated day.At first,I felt great but now I feel awful.At 8am this morning,I changed into my school uniform and went to school.It was raining.Because I hated both school and rain,my mood was horrible.By the time I arrived at school, my school uniform's skirt was soaked. That silly girl Amber was screaming about it."My body is so wet.Can you believe this!I'm gonna tell my mummy!"Amber,can you see that I have eyes?TWO eyes!!Everybody can see your wet.In fact,what are you going to tell your` mummy `?"The rain hit me so much and I was almost killed?"I'm always wasting time on her. After the lesson the rain had become much stronger.It was nine o'clock in the morning but the dark sky made like it was already afternoon.My mood,which was awful,became better and better as the rain hitting the window got stronger and stronger.Why?Well,because if the rain became too strong,the school will close for the day! Finally,when the third lesson finished there was an announcement."All students come to the gymnasium immediately."I was so happy.I think everybody else thought the same.Every students rushed to the gymnasium. In the gymnasium,school's principal was waiting for us."I think everybody already know what I'm going to say"started the principal...You know what he said from that don't you? We went back home,again rushing.I was too excited that I don't remember how did it rain while I'm going back.But I do remember what I saw when I came back to my sweet home.It was sunken in the water!I couldn't believe my eyes.I started to look more closely and noticed that my legs were sunken too.So I checked what was going on. I was shocked.The rain was too strong that my long hair was wet,even I was under my umbrella.All of my neighbors were escaping from the neighbor.I don't know how I came in this place.I was just trapped in.I didn't know what I supposed to do. Then I heard a large voice that was familiar.It was Penny, my best friend.She was on the boat.She said that she heard in the News that my neighborhood was flooded,and came to rescue me.She was all wet too.I almost cried. After that we went back to our school,because I didn't have a place to go.Lot's of people were there including, my mother!

Christams Elves On Strike-By Lin

We're on a strike. That's it. We are tired of working day after day with no breaks and no holidays.We are fed up with working for zero wages.We're sick of the cramped, confined sleeping and working quarters at the workshop. And most of all, we refuse to wear these silly, uncomfortable elf suits anymore. We,the Union of Workshop Elves, refuse to make any more toys until the following demands are met: 1 We want 10 breaks a day with lot's of food! 2 We want Holidays in summer for traveling around the world. 3 We need to be payed \700 each hour. 4 We need to have a separate place to sleep and to work. And we need a bigger workshop so we can work harder. 5 We don't want uniforms we want normal clothes! Please answer our requests. If you want us to make anymore toys! From Elves
