My Childhood Toy


        Another blog post for school, yay.......
        When I was a little kid in my home state of Mississippi, things were always just okay back then. I'd always watch VHS tapes, I didn't really watched TV.
         But, one day when I was in Kindergarten, I went to the usual discount store that you can find in any small town. It was where you could find antiques on a low price, along with other things like stuffed dolls, broken down bikes, and more. But, when we were there that day. I found a My Little Pony bag filled with original toy ponies, but it wasn't just 1 or 10. There were more than 30.
         I was really excited, very excited. I went to my grandparents and showed it to them. They were surprised to find that it was on a really good discount, so they got it for me.
         Since that day I played with those ponies, and got more later. Some were from newer toy sets, others were older. But, they were fun none of the less. I used them to make stories with, since my family was away most of the time. They were my company, the friends that I could make with just my imagination and little kid mind. I would make a story where a Unicorn rebelled from the Magic Family, after being replaced by another unicorn. If I had two ponies that looked alike, I'd make them twins and have them have conflict.
         Thanks to those ponies, I learned something for my life. Anything can be a story, you can make little world to escape in when times are terrible, and life just wants to punch you in the face. It taught me that, and when I am alone, I can always find a new story or make a story.
         I suppose that relates to my own way of life. Imagination is great, but it is the best as a best friend.

  1. I used to play with my little pony when I was little too, I loved making the stories and watching how I made the stories unfold. Unfortunately I never was alone while playing, I have two younger siblings who always wanted play.

    1. Whelp, I was alone 99% of the time. It is nice to know someone else played with My Little Ponies the same way.

“We must live, and when this is all over, we must work to make the world a better place. And if we die, we will die knowing that it was not our fault, that we did our best, and we can go to our deaths in dignity… I want you both to live…And to remember...You must choose love. Always choose love.”                   This was an excerpt from Daniel's Story , a book that my class is reading on the topic of the Holocaust, and this is the quote about love, something very dire and strict nowadays. A loving person can come in many forms or shapes, it can come in my imagination of someone who will listen, it can be a thought of love that has taken shape in your mind, and it can be all the other things that people may believe.                    What I am told to write about today is of someone in my life who has chosen love, whether they are in the movie or in real life. It will be hard to pick...

              Dear Diary,                                                                                                 February 26th, 2018                               It has been a long time since I have written in a diary, the last time I written in one was when I had no one else to turn to for my problems. Well, this is a problem that I'd like to say. I'm sick.                               You would think that someone with an illness would be taken care of, yet I feel not being taken care of. I am stuck drinking evil medicine tea, headaches, and listening ...

My graduation speech

(I am about to graduate from middle school, and we got an assignment to post a speech on our blogs, so here!)             Here we are, getting ready to go to high school. We are all now looking behind in the past while still looking at the future. Planning on what we are going to do with our lives. But, I have just one message to tell you that involves to everyone in this room. Make something new. If this is the one thing that you remember about me, that would be great.            In this world that we are living in today, people tell us multiple times that we should get some sort of job that we hear constantly. When we ask their reasoning behind it, they say, "It has the best payment," or "You will have a good life." The people that want to have these jobs are excited to hear this, but the others? We should all know that we are not going to live forever that we are all going to die one day. There are two types of people, t...
