CINDERELLA Once upon a time, there was a young girl named Cinderella.

She lived with her step mother and two step sisters. The step mother and sisters were conceited and bad tempered. They treated Cinderella very badly. Her step mother made Cinderella do the hardest works in the house; such as scrubbing the floor, cleaning the pot and pan and preparing the food for the family. The two step sisters, on the other hand, did not work about the house. Their mother gave them many handsome dresses to wear. One day, the two step sister received an invitation to the ball that the kings son was going to give at the palace. They were excited about this and spent so much time choosing the dresses they would wear. At last, the day of the ball came, and away went the sisters to it. Cinderella could not help crying after they had left. Why are crying, Cinderella? a voice asked. She looked up and saw her fairy godmother standing beside her, because I want so much to go to the ball said Cinderella. Well said the godmother,youve been such a cheerful, hardworking, uncomplaining girl that I am going to see that you do go to the ball. Magically, the fairy godmother changed a pumpkin into a fine coach and mice into a coachman and two footmen. Her godmother tapped Cinderellas raged dress with her wand, and it became a beautiful ball gown. Then she gave her a pair of pretty glass slippers. Now, Cinderella, she said; You must leave before midnight. Then away she drove in her beautiful coach. Cinderella was having a wonderfully good time. She danced again and again with the kings son. Suddenly the clock began to strike twelve, she ran toward the door as quickly as she could. In her hurry, one of her glass slipper was left behind. A few days later, the king son proclaimed that he would marry the girl whose feet fitted the glass slipper. Her step sisters tried on the slipper but it was too small for them, no matter how hard they squeezed their toes into it. In the end, the kings page let Cinderella try on the slipper. She stuck out her foot and the page slipped the slipper on. It fitted perfectly. Finally, she was driven to the palace. The kings son was overjoyed to see her again. They were married and live happily ever after.

My mom is my BestFriend
Sometimes we can't feel the love and care of our parents. We even say that they're cruel, strict and sometimes thought that they don't love us. February 13, 7:00 in the morning when i got home with those wounds i got from a motorcycle accident. A day before that, i ask my mom to hang with my friends, yet she dint allow me so i lied to her. I went to my friends house and there we drank a lot and i even slept there for one night. At at bout 4:00 am when i got a message from her, "Where are you? I've been waiting for you to come home ". I ignore her message and i get back to sleep. 6:30 am when i woke my friends up and ask them to held me home. I really don't know why I felt nervous that time, i even feel sorry for myself. On my way home i ask my friend if I could drive on his motorcycle, he

gave me the keys and i drove yet accidentally i loss control and we crash on church's gate. Upon seeing the cross, i felt conscience for what i've done. I got home with wounds,cuts and bloods.

"You are my daughter, my best friend and my life" my mom told me after the accident happened. I realized that she's the one who really loves me, the one who cares me much even the one who stay by my side without counting any costs. I've learned a lot from it. i hope this could change you a bit.. based from a real experience of mine..:)

The Fight To End All Fights

I sat in my small damp dressing room, wrapping my wrist tape, tighter and tighter to provide extra strength during my battle. My trainer stood behind rubbing my shoulders to help me relax with the deafening noise of the crowd waiting outside in the packed arena. With the last roll of tape completed I tied my boots and shorts. I stood up from my chair; I was ready to fight my opponent. The bell rang in the room to signal our departure it was time to face my destiny. I walked out of the room with my coach behind me. We walked through the narrow dim corridor past the heavy set security guards holding onto their mean vicious bull terriers foaming at the mouth vying for blood. The crowd became louder and louder my signature music echoed around the stadium, heavy metal played as loud as possible for perfect entrance. The curtain drew, the lights faded with the spot light focused on me, this was my time, and this was my destiny. The crowd roared at my presence, they screamed my name. I was the challenger but I was their champion. I entered the ring and received my applause. I performed my last minute routine to focus my attention on my rightful prize. I was only going to leave with one result, defeat was not an option. My opponent then appeared through the curtains to the melody of his fearsome entrance. He was twice the size of me, built of pure muscle; he was some machine it would take a lot from me to bring him down. He entered the ring and the both of us glared at each other waiting for the other to back down. The official came between us to announce the title fight and introduce our presence to the enormous crowd. The sport had never witnessed such an attendance. They were about to witness the greatest show on earth, never before had there been such a buzz for a contest like this. The officials rang the bell the bout had begun. I stared down my opponent before making my first move. I unleashed a perfect hit landing it right in the middle of the target. The champ was unable to follow my lead and received several thumps one after another. The fight continued for another thirty minutes before reaching its dramatic climax in the final round. The champ thought he had won it with one ferocious shot, until I hit back with one last victorious flick against the platform I stood upon, it left my opponent hurled to the floor in pain and horror as my dream became a reality. My fate had arrived I was now the world champion; the crowd cheered the roared at the result they all hoped would happen. The ref lifted my arm into the air as the ring announcer spoke to

welcome the new champion. The winner by knockout and the new Tiddlywink Champion of the World.

Life In the Present

I once thought that it was better to live in the futher than to live in the past. But that was many years ago. Ive grown since then. 13 is way diffrent then 4. And i guess in some peoples eyes Im still there little girl and always will be. But life is bigger than the futher and has much more meaning. We werent put on the Earth to never break rules. Never have fun. And never cut lose and be free. So I dont understand why we think so far ahead and "Plan" who we will be. You dont know who we will be when we grow older. Hell for all we know we could be the most famous people known to walk the Earth or the poorest people and be happy to be alive. My point is you dont know nor can we cantrol who we shall be in life. It just happens. So Ive decided I will think in the present more offten and not worry about farther down the road. So if i do fail a couple classes, break a couple hearts, break some rules and even have my own heart broken I know i will have done all this within a damn good! So that way when i do look back on the past I know I will be happy with myself and know i had alot of fun doing the things i did. So i will live in the present because I know that the present is SO special and is a gift more than anything. I will not take so much for granted and be happy with what I get throughout my life. I will laugh at the stupid things I cried for and feel stupid for the things I got mad at. You never know when it might be to late to say I love you to someone that you truly love. So live life to all it can be because somethings are So precious loseing that one thing as important as anythIng will change you into something way diffrent then who you ever imagined you would or could be. The present IS a gift <3
