A Pet I’ve Known

Ding-dong. I rang the doorbell. Arf, arf, arf, arf-came the reply. Bam! My dog threw itself against the door, as if it could break it down just to get to me. Arf, arf, arf. Bam!

 

Finally my mom came and opened the door. (I was too lazy to take off my backpack, get my key, open the door, and have to put my key back into my backpack). My dog lept out and threw its small, white, fluffy body against my legs. Everyday, my bus driver hands out dog treats to those who have dogs. Binky, my dog knows this and lept up, nose wiggling furiously. “Sit,” I commanded. Still barking, Binky sat down, but he popped back up a split second later. I gave the treat to him, not really because he sat, but mostly to placate him and calm him down. This is my dog Binky:

Home In the Morning

Home In the Morning

“I don’t want to get out of bed,” I thought as I woke up.

But soon I was refreshed and wide-awake.

I was greeted with the smell of sausage and scrambled eggs,

As I walked down the stairs.

My mom was cooking breakfast.

My sister was waiting for food.

My dad was still getting prepared.

My dog was sitting under the table,

Hoping for crumbs to fall.

And I joined my family.

Soon my sister left for school and I was alone with my parents.

We sits together, talk about our day, and watch the news.

When my bus comes, I wish my parents a good day,

And my morning ends.

Who Inspires You?

My Dad is my inspiration. He encourages me and helps me. My Dad will use his own experiences to teach me.

Once, when I scored a very low grade on a math test, he told me that all will still be well. When he was in high school, he also scored a really low grade on a test, and his rank was in the hundreds. But with many years of hard work, he slowly but surly increased in knowledge and skill. When he graduated, he was number two in his grade.

I have definitely not been through as much things as he has, and I want to learn from him. My Dad inspires me. Who inspires you?
