 * Hi!** I am a 5th grader at Turner Elementary School.I will turn 11 on July 8th 2009.My favorite subject in school is reading.I have 1 brother Teagan and 1 annoying little sister named Tessa.My favorite books that I like to read are __Inkheart__,__Inkspell__,and __Inkdeath__ by Cornelia Funke.My favorite movie is Journey to the Center of the Earth or Monsters v.s.Aliens.My favorite thing to do at home is jump on the Trampoline outside.WhooooHooo!!!!!! I LOVE MY LIFE!! If I could change my life I would only ask for a horse.

__Being Swept Away__ This is a story about when our family was camping at Popam Beach and our tent got swept away with us in it! It all started when during a rainstorm our tent pegs came up and we started to float away.The first people to wake up were my parents.They opened the tent door and saw that we were in the water!They woke us up and it was true we were in the water!So all we could do was sit in the tent and look out the windows.Then all of a sudden my brother spotted the shark!!!!!!!!!!Teagan shouted and we all looked out the window.There we saw the biggest shark we had ever seen swimming straight toward us!We were doomed.There was nothing we could do against a shark especially out in the middle of the water.Just when the shark was about to take a bite we hit something hard,ground!As soon as possible we all scrambled out of the tent.At least now we were safe from the shark but where the heck were we!We all looked around and discovered that we were in a beautiful land full of mythical creatures.There was one creature that looked a little like a unicorn but it was very small.We later found out that what he had been effected by was a poisoning that would soon effect our land too if we didn't put an end to it.The Alarkanese people promised us that we could live on in our world only if we would help theirs.We were given a map and then set out on our journey to find the solution to the poison.The map started on something that looked like a mountain,next it went to a huge tent like cave.Then a waterfall which it looked like we were supposed to go under.It ended with a x on an endless grass land.We knew the adventure would be dangerous but we had to do it! Now before I get into the adventure I should probably explain that I am Tia And I am 10 years old and this is about me and my family.Oh! And one more thing,where we landed was a big island in the middle of nowhere and it was really rocky.We set out on our adventure and the first thing we came to was a mountain like the one on the map.It smelled freshly of burnt coals. Thats when we relized the mountain that was on the map wasn't really a mountian at all. It was a volcano! I thougt we could just go around it but there were deep canyons on both sides. THe only way to get across was to go over the half burnt bridge, in the middle of the volcano. Right over the lava! What were we to do?! We got to the top of the volcano and saw the bridge. It wouldn't hold our wieght so how could we possibly get across?
