100 Word Story-<strong>Ryan</strong> <strong>Parisi</strong><br />
You’ve all heard about how scary the mamba is. Well I did to and that<br />
did not make my fear any better. I’ve heard from almost everybody that no<br />
ride was scarier than the mamba, and I believed the rumors. The<br />
Line seemed to take an eternity and being scared wasn’t helpIng. when It<br />
Finally came time to ride I felt queasy. The ride started to take off and I<br />
dIdn’t even have to say or think anything before, “voush!” the cart<br />
started screaming down the track over and over. After the ride was<br />
finally over I felt so accomplished.
100 Word Story-<strong>Ryan</strong> <strong>Parisi</strong><br />
7 years back was my first day of kindergarten and like most kids I had no idea what<br />
was going on. I had no friends and when I came time for recess I hadn’t made any. And<br />
out of the corner of my eye I saw a kid just like me who didn’t know anyone. I sat down<br />
with him and we kept talking for the whole recess. Little did I know that this kid would later<br />
be my best friend for the next four years. When he moved I was devastated but we knew<br />
we would stay in touch.

1. Eat more vegetables, eating vegetables improves your mental and physical health. They can<br />
also make exercise easier and give you that healthy glow.<br />

time it took you to read this article.
Twice Baked Potato Recipe<br />
Slice potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop the flesh into a large bowl; save<br />
skins. To the potato flesh add sour cream, milk, butter, salt, pepper, 1/2 cup<br />
cheese and 1/2 the green onions. Mix with a hand mixer until well blended and<br />
creamy. Spoon the mixture into the potato skins.<br />
Twice baked potatoes are a great family meal that even the kids will enjoy. It's a<br />
fast easy and delicious meal great for any holiday. My family has been eating it for<br />
years and your family should to. The seasoning mixed with the potatoes makes for<br />
an exquisite taste unlike any other. The flavor created by the mushy and hard<br />
potatoes mixing is a taste that you will never forget. If you think you’ve heard the<br />
part yet your wrong, these potatoes, like sweet potatoes are very healthy.

The Last Early Dismissal<br />
A day of sadness began as the last early dismissal was upon us. The district<br />
had decided to get rid of all early dismissals forever. As the day went on rumors<br />
Spread of an ice cream social at the end of the day. The rumors were doubted but<br />
as nobody expected the rumors were confirmed. The ice cream social happened<br />
for all grade levels at the end of the day. It was vanilla ice cream widths so many<br />
unlimited toppings. Everybody was overjoyed. The toppings were the most<br />
delicious things ever. Overall I would say that is was a pretty nice last early<br />
dismissal.
