Ziplining!

Today I went on a zipline.  I was suspended by a rope strapped onto the bars keeping me very safe as I rode down the zipline.  "Come on , come on let me go already." I thought to myself.  Woohoo!!!! I went shooting straight down to the other end. The zipline rattled.  "Don't look down ." I thought to myself. But I looked down and saw a dog that tried to get me down from the zipline. Luckily I was to high up.  Then I decided to go back inside.​

​What will my next great adventure be? 

Day 3: My Friend, Kitty

It was Wednesday and already in the afternoon. Julia’s sister Emily was playing the piano very loudly.. Julia’s whole family was downstairs. Julia put me down on the couch and went upstairs. Then she quickly came down in a blue polka dotted robe. In her hand she held a small dark orange and a light orange stuffed animal cat. After about fifteen minutes we had become best friends. We talked for what it felt like and hour. Apparently her name is Kit Kat. 

She has lived in Julia’s bedroom for about 2-3 years. So far I've made 4 new friends. My first friend was Thor, then Lila, Smokey, and now Kitkat. Julia set Kit Kat on the piano. Julia went up stairs. As she left and nobody was looking, I quickly played the piano. Apparently I’m pretty good at it.

Day 2: The Bike Ride

So far the first day with Julia was pretty good. If you didn’t hear, I have a new friend. His name is Thor and he is a small cat with lots of stripes I say he looks like a tiger. Anyway he introduced me to the two other cats that Julia has. There was another striped cat but she was a girl named was Lila. Then there was a huge big furry gray cat named Smokey I thought he was the leader, but Lila explained that he was only the oldest.

“Uh Oh!” I said in my head. Julia was carrying me with two hands like I was the most priceless china doll in the world. She walked up to a big bright blue bike it was huge. I could tell it wasn’t new because there was one dirty scratch on it and there was also a very small dent in the front of it. She gently put me on the front of the bike and made sure I wouldn’t fall out. She slowly took off and started going faster and faster and faster!  

2015/2016 Day 1: Monday - A New Friend

Hello my name Blue. I am, as what humans call me, a stuffed animal. I live in Mr. Funk’s classroom. Today he gave me to a girl for a whole week! I’ve never been kept for a whole week before. Frankly, I am excited, but very worried. What If I get stuck in a tree or get slobbered on by a big dog or, or? Ok, ok, I am kind of exaggerating, but who knows what could happen when kids are involved. Right now, a girl named Julia is holding me, walking to a big silver car. The car is very cold. I can tell because Julia had goosebumps all over her arms. By the way, if you are wondering how I know all these human words, let me explain. When Mr. Funk leaves the classroom and it becomes dark I sneak out and read all his dictionaries.

So let me get back to the subject. We are now at Julia’s house. It’s so big.. We walked in, she immediately walked outside, and set me down in the grass. Suddenly she left and I started to panic. “Boom” “Boom” Boom”. I slowly turned my neck to find two giant eyes glowing and staring straight into my soul. I made no sudden movements - I had learned that on the National Geographic show. Of course, that was bears and this is cats but, what’s the difference? It wasn’t working and I tried to get up but I was petrified. It’s big nose was suddenly in my face. It was wet and slimy. It lay down next to me as if to say, “I’m not scary.”I put my hand out to pet it and he put his forehead in my paw. He was now my friend.  

Day 45: Babysitting and the Talent Show

Hello, everyone! Blu here, and, as usual, I'm at someone's house. Mr. Funk decided that Marissa would get to take me home, and I was happy. I thought that we'd get to go bowling or to the movies, but I was wrong. "I've got a big day today, Blu!"She said. Then she told me that she would be watching little kids, dance rehearsal, homework, bike ride, and then, at the end of the day, watch a show. I'll start with after school.

     "Thanks,dad, bye!"Said Marissa, grabbing her back pack and her jacket. Though I was in her back pack, I knew all of this because she just kept talking. I heard voices coming from outside. Sounded like little kid voices, and I was right. That was when I remembered that we were going to go help with little kids. The darkness quickly turned into light as the backpack opened. Peeking over the backpack, was a little girl with strawberry blond hair put in pig tails. She reached in and took me out. "Who's this, Missa?"She asked. Turning around, Marissa glanced at me quickly. She turned back around and said, "Oh, that's Blu, the class bear. You want to play with him?" Yay!, I thought, A new friend!

      Tilly (the little girl) and I played on the grass for a while until Marissa said, "Hey, Tilly, Indy, do you want to go for a little walk. I have to walk your little sister around a bit, she's getting fussy." I wondered who Indy was, but just as if Tilly was reading my mind, she said, "Indy is my big brother. He's five. My little sister is Posy and she's only six months old!" I thought about what it would be like if I had a brother or sister. Maybe we'd go scootering together, me and my little sibling, if I had one., I thought. "Tilly, Indy said he doesn't want to come, do you?"Marissa repeated. Tilly picked me up, picked her scooter up, and followed Marissa. She raced ahead and began scootering so fast, I thought I'd fall off. But I didn't. Then she and Marissa started chattering about. We played some hide-and-seek for a while. When the baby started crying, Marissa knew it was time to head back. The baby got a bottle back at the house and Marissa got macaroni. "Let's go to the park!"Said Indy. So, Marissa, Indy, Tilly, Posy, Christie (the kid's grandma), and Brinkley (the grandma's dog), went to the park. At the park, Indy and Tilly met knew friends. They played and played and played for half an hour! We played on slides, monkey bars, and played tag. We, sadly, had to go back home. When we got back to Christie's house, Marissa's dad was there and ready to pick us up. We drove for fifteen minutes just to get back to school. "Why are we going back to school?" I asked. I was told that she had talent show dance and singing rehearsal, and that was enough for me. We arrived at the school and started rehearsing on stage immediately, well, Marissa did.

      Her and her friends did a great job dancing and singing and they did this for thirty whole minutes!They twisted and turned and leaped and jumped while I watched them curiously from the benches. "Great job. We'll see you next week, girls."Said the woman running the practice. The got off stage and Marissa and I left. Now we'd go home.

       At home, Marissa took ate some soup that a family friend had made. She said it tasted amazing. "Let's go for a bike ride, Blu."She said after she finished eating. With that, we went for a bike ride. At the park, Marissa just kept riding her bike. She wouldn't even stop to let me ride on the slides! Her explanation was that she wanted to ride as long as she could because it was getting dark. I just sat back and enjoyed the cold breeze on my pretty, blue fur. It was almost completely dark when we finally got home, and I was so surprised. She began doing homework as soon as she could. I just sat and watched, helping her with her math. After she was finished, she let me play on her computer. I decided I'd write to you guys, but now she is looking for me, so I'd better go. Goodbye, everyone!

How about you spend at least 20 minutes with me solving the riddles. Ok fine I will, but only 20 minutes. Then Aadra spended only 20 minutes solving riddles with me. Then it was lunch time we all went and sat at the dining table and ate lunch. After having lunch I solved more riddles alone. I didn't have much fun like I did in the first time with Aadra. But I played with Som though. We played until it was time to go to a place where I learned a lot about  games and other stuff. So before it was time to go I started to write. And obviosly I couldn't write anymore. Bye see you at my next Adventure with an other kid.

Hi guys, Blu here. Today Aadra was practicing her black hero speech for Monday. She spent more than a half day practicing it. Then when it was 1:30 she went to a temple. I was really sad because, she left me home. When she was about to go I asked her that why can't I go with you. You can't go with us because their are small children that really like teddy bears. If you go with us they will damage you and take you to their home. And I don't want that to happen. So, can you at least take me with you and then when we reach there leave me in the car. PLEASE!!!! Ok fine only in the car. After like 2 hours the door went open it was Aadra. Let me tell you one of the thing that she was there. It was her friends brothers birthday.
