My Swim Meet Against Hadley Farm's Great White Sharks

       Would you like to be a 9 year old kid swimming most of the events you could participate in? Well that's what I had to do at my swim meet against Hadley Farm's Great White Sharks. I swam Freestyle, Backstroke and Breaststroke. My first event was Freestyle so I would use a lot of energy to swim.

                Freestyle is a fast stroke and I could get a better rank than other strokes because I practice it more than other strokes. Before I swam someone got disqualified for a false start. As I got ready, when the buzzer went off I sprinted as fast as I could and when I reached the wall my mom told me I was second because my last breath took to long. Also once all my other events were finished I had to swim Freestyle relay. I was the second person in the relay and the person who started before me was a bit slow so I used all my might and beat a person in relay. Now I will have to get ready for Backstroke.


               As I got in the water I was a little cold, but when the race started I sprinted with a lot of power and when I touched the wall my mom told me I was in fourth place.Then I went to dry off and my mom told me at least I didn't bump into the lane dividers and I swam straight. I still had to do Breaststroke so I couldn't leave.

               When the announcer said go I dived into the water with a great start and used a bunch of energy to reach to finish and when I finished my mom told me I was third to finish. I'm not as fast as before because I don't practice it a lot.


                       When all of the events were finished, the meet official announced that my swim team won the meet. If you forgot what I swam, it was Freestyle, Backstroke and 
Breaststroke. That was an incredible day I will never forget! 

Muhammad Ali

        "I AM THE GREATEST!" Those were the famous words of Muhammad Ali. Muhammad had a poor childhood, a hard adulthood and became an amazing boxer. Muhammad Ali was a very strong boy, as he grew so did his strength and speed.                              

                   Muhammad Ali was a strong and active child. Muhammad was born on January 17, 1942 in Louisville, Kentucky. When he was born his name was Cassius Clay. Also he was born in the time when black and white people were separated. His family was not terribly poor when he was born. He started boxing at the age 12 in a amateur boxing place. Cassius was good at boxing so he won a lot of tournaments. Muhammad Ali grew older and started to box in public.

              Cassius was strong and won a lot of tournaments so a lot of people started challenging him. The famous baseball player Jackie Robinson was an example for him to play in public.As he got better he couldn't keep on avoiding punches, he had to learn how to take hits.Cassius liked to rhyme and these his challengers. When Martin Luther King Jr. made the country slave free, Cassius joined the nation of Islam and changed his name to Muhammad Ali. Muhammad was married 3 times an divorced 2 times. Muhammad lost to Sony Liston and Joe Frazier but won both rematches. Also he is a CHAMPION!           


                 Muhammad Ali is a famous boxer and won a lot of tournaments. He boxed since he was small so when he grew up he would be a famous boxer. A lot of countries recognize the name Ali because he boxed in a lot of places. He won a lot of tournaments and won golden gloves too. Once he was the athlete of the century and he has a famous daughter. His last match was against Trevor Berbick but he lost. Now Muhammad has a brain disease so  he can't remember things that happened in the past


               In conclusion Muhammad is a strong boxer. He had a strong childhood, beat a bunch of boxers and became almost invincible. Muhammad is an unforgotten legend! 

2 Parties in 1 Weekend!

      On 5/19/12 It was my sister's birthday party.We invited a bunch of friends named :Richard, Myles and more people. At first we were going to play things like pin the tail on the donkey,and make your own picture frame but we just left it to my sister. So first me and my friends went into the basement and played hit ball. Hit ball is a game that I made up where you have 2 balls, 1 for each team. Both teams have to work together and try to steal the others team's ball by throwing the ball to hit the other team. The team who protects both balls first wins. Then Richard and I beat Andrew and Myles by sprinting to my sister's room and locking the door. After that we played Mario and Sonic at the Olympic games and ate barbecue, shrimp and more delicious food.Then we went outside to play basket ball.Also Richard had to leave when we were finished playing.So Miles, Andrew and I wanted to go to the park. But first we had to sing "Happy Birthday" to my sister and eat cake.After that we went to the park and played tag with no adult watching! After we got tired playing tag we went inside and play Sonic Riders Zero Gravity. While Myles and I played everyone left except his family. When it was time to say bye our house was messier than ever. But since I was tired I went up stairs and went to sleep.   THE END (Of party 1)
