Oreo Balls- Free Write

My family does not really have any traditions when it comes to food but my mom and sister try to make Oreo balls around Christmas. The kitchen does not have enough room for all of the family to sit and help roll the balls plus I do not like to cook in the slightest so I don't not help them. I don't have any good stories to tell about any of the foods we make because I am not involved in cooking at all. I stay out of the way of my dad and sister when they cook because our kitchen is basically a hallway with appliances and cabinets in it. I do know how they make the Oreo balls because it is pretty simple. You start by blending up a pack of double stuffed Oreo till they are just powder. Then you add in cream cheese and blend till all the cream cheese is mixed evenly. Next you take a cookie sheet and line it with none-stick paper and start rolling the batter into roughly ping-pong sized balls. After that you put the cookie sheets into the freezer for a day or two so they can harden. After the time in the freezer then you take them and dip them into melted white almond bark,which makes the whole house smell amazing for a couple of days, and put them back on the cookie sheet then into the freezer again for another day or two. Once the chocolate has hardened you take them of the cookie sheet and store them in a container with a lid and store them in the fridge. 

Perspective Story- Free Write

It was an ordinary day and I was sleeping in the Washington monument when I suddenly woke up. There was someone poking at my button so I scanned the area and found my brief case. It was down the street from me but it was closed so I wasn't sure how someone tapped the button. Then the case jumped up which I thought was rather strange so I did an x-ray scan and found that there was a pigeon locked inside pushing buttons. As I was scanning the pigeon was hopping the case around the street and shooting a laser gun at cars and people. Then the case started to fly up and chase cars still shooting. There was a man in a black suit that was trying to stop the pigeon so he ran out into the street with what looked like a bagel and he held it over a burning car. The case stopped shooting and looked at the man. When the man threatened to drop the bagel in the fire the pigeon landed the case and opened the lid. The man tried to approach the case up the pigeon jumped back in and pointed the laser at the man.The man acted like he was going to put the bagel down but then he through it up into the air and the pigeon was distracted for long enough for the man to knock it out of the case. As then man hit the pigeon the bagel came down on my button. Then next thing I knew was the monument was moving down and I was launched into the air heading for Moscow Russia. As I was flying I could sense that the man was flying behind me and was fighting the pigeon. The next thing I remember was and explosion and I was falling instead of flying and I saw the pigeon on the ground and I fell right on top of it.

Sky- Free Write


I have always loved the night. I would rather be up at night doing things because it is more peaceful. When you are driving at night you almost have the road to yourself if you are out late enough. The night air is cooler in the summer and is perfect for having the windows down. I would like to go somewhere that has less light pollution so I could go night driving and be able to see the moon and the stars above me.

I Will Never Do That Again

I will never take my vehicle to Midas or Eagle Pride to be worked on. The vehicle I had worked on at those places kept having problems in the areas they worked on like the ball joints had to be replaced two years in a row at inspection time. the fist inspection I took it to Midas and they replaced the parts for $500+ then a year later I had the same problem again so I took it to pep-boys and they fixed it better and i didn't have the problem again. Eagle pride was supposed to fix the problems i had with the brakes and they did for but after a couple of weeks there was a different problem so i took it to a different shop and they said that there was a couple of bolts missing from the caliper on my brakes so i am never going back to those shops for work on my new truck. I will never let the dealership do the state inspection on a used vehicle again. when i bought my new truck the dealership said it might need a new inspection because the old one was out of date. 

 "She is Blonde"

Her hair shines and flows down her back like a golden waterfall in the warm summer sun.

The Toddler was Angry

 All you could hear was screaming and yelling through the store it and you could tell that someone was not in a good mood. As they the sound comes around the corner you can see a little kid in a car cart and their face is red and there are tears running down their face.

I was Unhappy

My parents told me I was going to have to start taking my sister to school with me my senior year and they told me that I wasn't supposed to listen to my music loudly with her in the car because she didn't like the music I listened to. Why should I have to stop listening to my music the way I want to in my car just because my sister doesn't like it.

Place I Would Rather Be- Free Write


I would rather be on the beach in the Caribbean. I want to sit on the beach under an umbrella and feel the warm sun and sand on my skin. I want to listen to the waves roll onto the beach and watch the boats and ships come into dock. I want to feel the salty breeze on my face. I want to recline next to the water and feel the tide come up over my legs and feel the cool wet sand between my toes. I want to smell all the seafood cooking and taste fried fish.

Hells and Heavens- Free Write


My hells are when i do not know how I am going to finish an assignment on time and with actually good work. another hell is when I have to go to work at the front of the store and deal with all the customers. i would prefer to work in the back counting money. another hell is when i am late for something or think i am gonna be late. My heavens are when i get to relax at home and play video games. another heaven is getting to work on my truck and buy new things to make it look more personalized for me. another heaven is when i get to buy things and upgrade my computer. i also like to spend time with my grandparents and surprise them with visit when i am not busy at work or class. i am not a very deep person so my things are not very grand or important.
