My favorite fall activity is playing football in my backyard. I like to play with all my friends that live around me and can ride to my house. I like to put a pile of leaves in the end zone so when your about to score you can dive into the leaves without getting hurt. It is fun when you can play tackle then it is not so easy to get touched and then you are down. I usually do it with my brother and his friends and aaron and kyle and sometimes with Michael. I feel real good that everyone is coming to my house to have fun and after we have eggnog. Eggnog is my favorite drink and I made some the other day and it turned out really good but not as good as regular eggnog from the store. Usually we have a five on five or six on six or however many people can show up to play. We don’t have any penalties or fouls or any refs because that’s what makes it fun. If you have refs and penalties you might as well play for the school and have refs and flags. We usually play two or three games and however long we want to play each game. We usually play for four hours and then every one goes home and since we play on thanksgiving they can all go home and eat turkey and mashed potatoes and gravy. It is fun playing on thanksgiving so you can play and not get hot because of the chilly weather. And so you can work up an appetite to eat a lot on the thanksgiving dinner. I don’t think I am going to do this any more because usually the kids cant come over because they have to go to a family.

MY: free write #1
The good thing about sameness is that nobody can be single out from other groups of people because everyone is the same. It bad to have only same things because nobody could be better at any thing than anyone cant be better at sports, teaching, smarter so know one can be the best or be a really good teacher or athlete. The thing about change is that it lets people express themselves in different ways then other people. It lets people pick what they want to do or to put in there house than everyone having to do what everyone else does. It is not good to be the same because you couldn’t go see the sunset because it would be grey or you couldn’t go see Niagara Falls to see the blue water because it would be plain. You could never go sledding because the weather would be always the same boring nothing. The thing that needs to change in the world of the giver is that they need to have color and pain and memories and grandparents because life is would be so boring and you couldn’t have any holidays because you basically don’t have a real family. The thing that needs to be changed in our world is the North Pole the south pole and Antarctica because they are useless to our life except they are going to flood the world when they melt of global warming. And another useless thing in our world is horses. What do they do for us. They are always locked up in a field or meadow and run around. Oh yeah and people ride around on them in the meadow and that is what I think about change in our world and Jonas’s world to.
