EMERGENCY
“Go get the Curious George book on the shelf over there”. I pretend my stuffed cat tells me to run to the bookshelf and back. That probably sounds like it doesn’t make sense, but don’t blame me I was four. My little feet run to the little bookshelf, but I don’t stop! I go full force right into the sharp corner of the bookshelf! I didn’t much think of it at first, but when I saw the blood against my light brown hand I pushed out a small yelp and then started to cry. My mother rushed me to the bathroom and put large paper towels over my bloody cut. When I took the paper towels off of my forehead I could see that the towel had soaked up the blood. My mother didn’t have a cellphone at that time so another women whom was very kind dialed the numbers 9-1-1! Of course I was old enough to know what that means, but I didn’t realize how scary it is to be in this situation.
I heard the annoying noise of the big red truck come closer and closer.”You’ll be fine just relax”. As they arrived two men made me lay on a stretcher. I admit I was a little scared but just because there was people I didn’t know all around me. All I wanted was... my mom to hold me and tell me that I’m alright. After a ride that felt like forever I was lead into a room where a women rolled me in peach colored blanket. I didn’t want to be here I wanted to be at home and I didn’t want to roll back and forth in a blanket. What does rolling in a blanket have to do with anything. I waited in the blanket as the women put a glue stick on my cut. Now why would someone put a glue stick on a big cut to me that made no sense at all. I guess they were trying to glue it together so it wouldn’t leave a scar, but they failed at that because it opened up after a few days and left a scar. After a while I finally got home and all I wanted to know was if I was on T.V.

Winter
Have you noticed that winter is getting warmer? Well, you have homo sapiens to blame for this mess. We are homo sapiens. We pollute in so many different ways like driving a car, using a computer, leaving the lights on, and watching T.V. I believe that bad weather and storms and floods are just Earth telling us to stop it now, and Earth is very angry and using foul language. The next time you complain that it’s too hot or that it’s not snowing or that your favorite animal is in danger just know that you can stop that. I bet you know what to do. Let’s see if we can make winter come back.
