Proud Of His Xbox

Jay was bragging about his Xbox one day. He was telling me about what he can do with it and all the fun he gets for having one Xbox. He likes to play video games and enjoys it so much. Jay is a very smart boy in our class. In fact, we are classmate in the fifth grade and so we kind of became friends. We compete with each other but at times help each other too. We are friends in some ways and rival for the class’ number one.



He turned to me and asks if I have an Xbox. And I said no. “What? You don’t have an Xbox? How could you live without an Xbox? He continued on. How about a xbox360?  Do you have any video games? Everything he have, he ask me if I have those and of course, I don’t.



Finally, he said to me “I feel sorry for you Sarah.”

“Why?” Sarah asks him on the spot.

“I mean, how could you survive a life without any entertainment? You don’t have xbox, xbox 5, xbox 6, etc ” Jay responded with a proud heart, thinking Sarah needs a little sympathy.



Sarah’s response was – you know Jay, I may not have any of the things you got but
- I got 7 acres to for everyday adventure and there's always something new, 
-5 cats to play with and who enjoys my company (Jingle, Ninja, Shelly, Glitter and Kittune) 
-3 chickens that lay eggs for me to be healthy (Hope, Pride and Joy), 
-2 bunnies to hop around with (Dawn & Tuxedo) 
-1 dog to protect me from bad people when I do my daily exercise (Bo Derek), 
-4 sheep to comb and sell their fur to earn some money for my college (Pappy, Lammy, Rammsie, S.S.) and a llama to ride for fun (Divinity). Did I mentioned, their fur also makes money?

That is a lot of entertainment for me. These are real entertainment in life, great learning, at the same time having fun. At least, I don’t sit all day and talk to a box.



Jay was speechless, nods and realized that his Xbox is nothing compared to all the things Sarah enjoys in her life because he got none of those either. And Sarah’s got an Ipod and movies to watch if she wants to in her spare time and an xbox in a box stood by too. Sarah forgot to mention that!.

Cell Journey

        
         Accidently cell-size                          
    (My journey through a cell)           

Everyone wondered what the inside of a cell looked like. So when a sizing machine was found by a 2-year-old and her father, you can guess what made the headlines. Inside was enough room for up to 5 average grownups or about 7 average kids. The way to make it work was to press the ON button then uncover the two buttons underneath a protective flap. After this, press the button that has the down arrow to shrink and the arrow pointing up to enlarge. World-famous scientists including me, Dr. John Millers knew the exact spot and size we wanted to be: around ten times the size of a cell. One day while we were getting ready, a dog got in and stepped on the shrinking button, shrinking us all about 10 times smaller than what we had wanted to be. We examined our height and figured out that we were smaller than a cell!
''Might as well get going.'' someone said. Luckily the machine had shrunk everything on us, or we wouldn't have been wearing anything at all or equipment. Using our high-tech lasers, we lasered a hole in the ground, to find out what it was. Tests on the strong, green, smooth, surface proved it to be the cell wall. We decided to slide down and explore the texture, smells, sights, sounds, and all of that stuff. While we were down there, we happened to look up, at the cell wall. Suddenly we realized our hole was closing up, leaving us stuck inside of the cell since our lasers' batteries had died.  Sighing we agreed to look around. We realized that if the layer we had just passed was the cell wall, then the layer we had collided on was this cell membrane. This layer was soft, flexible, and full of holes. Soon, we got bored exploring one area and decided to explore further in.

Once we went in, a thick-liquidy gel surrounded us and in seconds we could not breathe. Luckily, we had brought along an air bubble that would help us. Instantly, a man spotted a glowing blob in front of us. Curious, we tried to reach it but fell on top of a huge, blue, soft thing. We gave our thanks that it had been there (because if it hadn't we probably would have been feeling VERY sore later on). We rested for a bit, taking turns sleeping while testing the material, finding out it was a vacuole. We retraced our steps while looking for the hard organelle we had tripped on. Tests proved the long, transparent, pieces were cytoskeleton.

After tripping about 50 times, we reached our destination: the glowing organs. Surrounding an almost perfectly round thing, they emitted a soft glow as they pulsed lightly with a quick sucking in then out motion. Stepping closer, I tried to touch it but accidentally falling on a piece of the cytoskeleton and landed on the round organ which I assumed the nucleus. It pulsated, giving out organelles. Then I guess I got too close and they thought I was a foreign object, hitting me while they tried to catch me. Even though they were smaller than me, I was still scared. But luckily, I was still curious so I captured them. All of us raced as far as possible from the objects that were following us. Suddenly, one by one, we fell into a tangled heap by some thick cords of stringy material. For some reason, our followers did not go after us once we were tangled in it. Quickly, we fought our way out, though not before tests that proclaimed it as a Golgi complex (/apparatus).


Even though we had somewhat escaped from all chasers or trippers or tanglers, we now wanted to leave, and PRONTO!!!!! We retraced our steps carefully. By the time we reached a familiar landmark: the cell membrane. Gratefully, we raced over. Slipping through we ran to the cell wall. Suddenly we realized: how would we get out? We had gotten in by using our lasers, but, they had to recharge! On a fragile hope, we looked at our technologically advanced lasers. A soft beep was heard just when we lifted them to our eye level saying that they were fully charged. Yelling out our joy, we rejoiced. Suddenly an anteater snuffled in, following a trail of ants while sucking them up with its long tongue. Accidently, it stepped on the up button, zooming us to our regular size.
