*←A Good Message→*

Monsters Are Due on Maple Street is a story written by Rod Serling in 1960. At the end of the story, when the two figures are, that I think are aliens, are talking, I think that they mean that we humans are "destroying” ourselves by all the fights we have over little things, all the killing that is performed in our world, and all the conflicts that leads us to bigger and worse problems.

I think that we should try not to fight over small things, just for suspicion on somebody. Instead, I think that the best thing we can do is talk problems over, and resolve them in a peaceful way, where nobody gets hurt, and no conflict is made by people. Today, that message needs to help us even more, because nowadays, conflict and crime is big in the world, and many people loose their lives over suspicion and conflicts, which never end happily. We need to follow this message that we don't need to fight, because it can really help us for the future, where I really hope things can go well without the need of conflict and all those bad things.

Monsters Are Due on Maple Street was a good story that adapted well to the time when it was written, because of the technology. T.V was new there, and radios where practically the biggest advance, because television was not quite like ours today, because they didn’t have television all day, instead, only a little time. A way in which we can change this story to adapt it to our time period would be by changing its technology. Back in the story, the only way of knowing what was going to happen was by radio, now, we have T.V, and computers with internet. A way that that would have added confusion is by maybe, a portable computer with its battery charged didn't work, and that would be like the car didn't work, and they both don't need electricity, so that is a way to update the story. Now, I think we don't know any more about UFO's than we did back in 1960, but there have been a few apparitions that are seemed to be aliens, but I don't believe in them, although I do believe that there NEEDS to be another life form, whether in this galaxy or not, because we couldn't be the only life form in the whole entire universe, that would be absurd!

This Weekend I...♥

This weekend, I did alto of things. On Friday, I went to school as usual. I had been waiting all day for soccer practices, where we would have two games. One of the two was going to be against Rea Cartagena, and the other would be against Britanico. When school was ending, like at 2:00 P.M, it started to rain furiously, and we supposed the games were canceled and they were. I was very upset because I really wanted to ply although the games ended late, so I wouldn't have time to go do my nails and my hair for Isabella's party, that was later at night. Isabella did a party that was a dinner at her house, with very few people. I arrived there at about 8:00 P.M, and the party was very fun. About 10 minutes after I arrived, Isabella's parents had a surprise for her... It was a Chiva! We all rode the chiva, where we danced, sang kareoke, and did many more things, like tells jokes and gossip. After we arrived to Isa's house again, a delicious dinner awaited us. We ate meat lasagna, which was delicious, with bread and coke. Afterwards, arrived the dessert. An Alaska was the dessert, and although I don't like Alaska very much, I ate a little, which about a million brownies that were delicious. After we ate we danced, and then we each went to our house around 11:00 P.M. On Saturday morning I woke up really late, at 12:00 P.M, because I slept late. Then Lissette called me to invite me to the Club Cartagena to practice the Halloween skit. I got ready, and he picked me up. We didn't go directly to the Club, we stopped at the Hotel Caribe to pick up a book that was made up of stories we had each written, and my story was published, along with everybody else's, it was so cool! hen we where going out of the hotel, it was raining, and Catalina called us to tell us that everybody had left the Club and gone home, because they couldn't practice in the rain. Then, Lissette went to my house, and there we took a bah, and decided where we would go that night. A huge mess was started when people disagreed on where they wanted to go, and the decided where to go by votes between the Corral, and the Otoyal, and the Otoyal won. At the Otoyal, we had a lot of fun, and we ate delicious food. After that, we visited the Campito for a short time and then, we went to my house to talk. We laughed a lot, told a bunch of jokes, and played. We had a lot of fun this weekend!

[[An Outer World Journey]]

5:17 A.M-
I guess, that to start this diary my religious "coach" is making me do, I will talk about myself. My name is Lucinda, and I live in Munchok, Huntsvilla. Well, in case you humans don't know where that is, I'll tell you. You live in Earth, and I live in another Galaxy, Minea, and my planet is named Setis. My world is actually similar to yours, except... we are not humans, we are Nuts. You know the fairies you imagine in your world would be like? Well, we are somewhat like that. We have a human body with wings, and our world is much cleaner than yours, because we need no cars! Our day is not 24 hrs. like yours, it has 36 hrs. here, and that is 12 hours of A.M, 12 hours of P.M, and 12 hours of C.M.

Our religion is really odd, it is called Ulimep. It is based on the belief of our creator being an ant, named Longor, who created the world on 234 years. Like the religion of Islam in your world demands for a religious journey if able, we are demanded for one too. In the journey, we are supposed to travel aross the forst of Oompa, and find Longor, the Holy Ant, who is supposed to be a glowing green ant, and today, I am starting my journey.

6:01 A.M-
I had my bags packed a week ago, and I am really excited to get going ad start. I am not going alone though, my best friend Maggie is joining me, along with a couple of other friends too, but I don't like them so much, so I don't talk to them, and I don't think I will. My mom is repeating the same words she kept saying for the last week "Take care, be patient, and that is how you'll find him." I am leaving in about an hour, at 7:00 A.M. I just can't believe I am finally going to the Oompa Forest, because so many people have told me wonders about it!

7:15 A.M-
I just started my journey and I feel like a grownup lady, although I am just fourteen. We haven't traveled long, and we are stopping in a cafeteria to buy some "fuel" for the trip. "How much money do we have?" I asked Maggie.

"About...10╛, or 15╛, because I found some money on the floor on our way in" (╛means Fretans, wich is our currency here)

" The total is 9.98╛, including the jar of peanut butter that this girl broke", said the cashier. The girl that broke the jar was actually me, when I bumped into a shelf while paying. We had wasted almost all of our money, and the chances of us finding money on the floor, enough to eat some more, we almost none.

7:52 A.M-
Now, we are returning to our trip, and something awful just happened to me. While trying to get a delicious chocolate bar I bought back at the store, my backpack fell into the middle of the starting forest, and we need to get it soon, before someone, or something gets it before us. "Let's continue, do you really think that we will stop our trip for you? leave your backpack down there and let some diabolic creature down there burst it into pieces" said Cristina B., an annoying girl which makes part of the group of girls that I despise. Once we got down, it took us about an hour to get the backpack, which was very heavy, and continue our trip.

11:32 A.M-
The Oopa forest is beautiful! It is full of flowers, like blue Russponnes, red Oliveras, yellow Moonflowers, and many many orange Carnatons. The trees are so high, we are flying directly above them, almost touching them! There are many animals that I didn't know which appeared next to us. A blue flying bird with and ovaled beak seemed very attached to us, because he started to follow us for about half an hour, until he stopped in his nest, where two adorable babies waited for him, with hunger. Aso, we saw some types of squirrels, but they were blueish-yellowish color, well, a mixture of the two, but is wasn’t green.

1:58 P.M-
Now, we are resting in the ¼ part of the forest. Around me, there are like a million little birds, trying to get some of my food, which consist on a razzapple juice, and a banana. Suddenly, a black little cat shaped animal comes toward me, looking very cute and innocent, but then, it grabs my forest map, and runs away! We started chasing the little vandal until we finally caught it, with difficulty, but we did it.

6:23 P.M-
After the first part of the exhausting trip, we made our tents in a tree –free space, where there was a lake. We took our bathing suits and our wing covering and dived into the lake, it was so cool! While diving, we saw a strange creature, like a shark, that was circling us in a dangerous way. Suddenly, the creature bit one of our companions, Shirley in the leg, and she was bleeding really badly. We took her to shore, and we put a piece of clothing around her leg, and waited until she stopped bleeding, and cleaned her wound. Although it wasn’t very big, her wound made us a little tardy on our trip.

6:45 C.M-
At this hour, it is time to sleep. Maggie and I are going to stay awake for a short time, just to gossip and tell scary stories. Suddenly, from the middle of nowhere, we see a green, glowing light outside our tent. We were very scared, but that didn’t stop us from gong outside to “investigate” the matter. I couldn’t believe it! It was Longor! He was a glorious sight, and I felt really blessed, for nobody had seen him in just one day! We called the other girls, and then we prayed to him and he went away.

8:22 C.M-
After we completed our mission, Maggie and I decided it was time to pull the other girls a little prank. We took the tents of the other girls and threw them into the water, so they would wake up in the middle of the lake, floating! I can’t just imagine their face when they wake up! I am just going to call my mom and tell her to expect me home by tomorrow evening, and I will just wait for her surprise!

Because my religious coach told me just to write a diary until I find Longor, I will stop here, but I just can’t tell ho excited I am, and I hope you learned that you are not the only life, we exist too, and we know everything about you guys, so take care, because you never know what to expect from other people.

*My 11th Birthday!*

For my 11th birthday, I planned to do a trip to my godfather´s farm. The farm is very beautiful, it has a pool, a cabin, 2 bridges, a river, and it is located on a high hill, where there a millions of beautiful flowers of many colors. Tha partywas supposed to be like this:
1. The guests were going to arrive in my house.
2. We would go in vans to the farm
When we got to the farm, we instantly "explored" the farm, and a lot of people loved it! Afterwards, we dived into the water, wich was taken right out of the river(it was clean!, so it didnt have chlorine. Some people wandered into the trees and found a little puppy that they called Scott, because it looked like the puppy in the toilet paper commercial.The puppy was very cute, and after the party I took it home. After that, we decided to go into the hill to roll from it to the bottom, and it was very fun! We ate pizzas made by my dad, who is a great cook. The party was awesome, and everybody liked it, even my boring sister did! Then at the end of the party, it was time to sing happy birthday to me, and I was very excited. When they were singing, I saw that my mom left, and was sneeking in with a large box. After the song was over, they put my face in the cake, and my mom reached out to me to give me a present , that was inside the box. When I opened it, I couldnt believe my eyes. They had bought me a pair of new skates that I had been wanting for a long time. It was a wonderful birthday, and everybody enjoyed it.

→ My Worst Birthday←

On my 9th birthday, I invited some friends to a “wonderful” island to pass the night for my birthday celebration. I invited about 7 or 8 friends because some of them were sick, and some didn’t have permission, so they couldn’t go.(1)When my mom made the reservations, she was told that the hotel was very neat. When we were getting there,(2) we played, we ate, and we danced. (3)Oh, we were very surprised!The hotel was instead of divine, horrible.

The rooms didn't have any airconditioning, one of the rooms had a bee nest in it, and there was a dog sleeping on th front desk! Since there was no food, we had to eat in a nearby restaurant. In that restaurant, (4)we ate fish,rice, and coke. After we ate, we decided to see the pool. The only thing that was acceptable in the hotel was the pool, although it was a bit murky. (5)Diving into the pool, we took pictures of each other in the air. (6) Whenever somebody is taking a picture, I stay away, because I am not photogenic at all. The party lasted for one night in the island, and we had lots of fun at night. Because in the birthday card I told them to bring skates, at night, when it was pitch dark, we decided to "explore" the island by going through it (7) by running, by skating, and some walking. The next day, we returned late to our homes. The return trip wasn't as calm as the other one, because there were (8)huge,abnormal sized,killer waves moving the boat.

At the end, we didn't have so much fun as we expected to. Some people were even dissapointed in my party. That is why I can't say it was one of my best parties, although I can say it was my worst!

[[ My Dream Carrer ]]

People have always thought of "What is going to be my carrer when I grow up?"well although most girls think of things related with fashion, when I grow up I want to have my own hotel. I love to travel and be in different kinds of hotels, and I've always wanted to own my own hotel, where I can choose the design, the restaurants, the pools and everything else.

There are millions of things that I love about hotels, but the ones I like the most are the pools, because I have always liked to discover new types of pools, like for example, I have seen pools with playgrounds in it, and I have been to pools with fish swimming around you(although I didn't like it so much). Another thing that made me like hotels is their rooms, including the bathrooms. Rooms always need to be comfortable, and I think that if one day I have a hotel, the best part of designing it would be the rooms, because when you enter a hotel, the room is a big part of your stay. The bathrooms in the rooms are very important because in some hotels, it is just the best part. Another last thing that is important in hotels is the food. You can't always expect good food in hotels, so when I have my hotel I will make sure that I have food that everyone likes, because in some hotels I have been to, the food is gross.

Some really great hotels that are my "role models" are the Atlantis Hotel in the Bahamas, and the Nick Hotel, in Orlando. I really like them because the whole family can have fun in them, they have excellent entertainment and activities, and their food is great (from what I have read).

I really hope that I get to have my own hotel, because it seems like a fun carrer and a good experience. I hope you get to appreciate hotels as much as I do, because they are absolutely great!

○--A Usual Thing--○

Everyone has made errors in their life; they may be big, small, or normal. I have made lots of mistakes in my life, but I don’t regret doing most of them, because I learn from them. The way I usually deal with problems is with patience, although sometimes people can take out my patience, like when someone is yelling at me, I completely loose my patience and start yelling at that person, because I can’t stand people trying to correct me by screaming, and that is a bad habit I have. When I have patience I usually have time to think about what I have done and what I need to do to correct it. I usually think what way would affect me in the best way.

One error in my life that I constantly look back to is one that I made long ago. When I was in 4th grade, I got into a big problem one day at school. It was a normal day of school, but in recess time, I got into a fight with a girl of my class, because she was going to cut in line. We were both called to the principal’s office when we were shouting and a teacher heard us, and stopped us. In that time, our principal was Mrs. Miriam, and I was very scared of her. She told us that fighting is very bad, and we made a big error, but she punished the other girl more, because I wasn’t the one cutting in line.

Next time I deal with a problem like this, I will try to call a teacher before I react in an angry way, because reacting like that only leads to more consequences, because that is a big mistake.
