Speculative Writing

          Yes Johnny thought tomorrow is his mom's birtday.  It was Saturday and his mom has to work all day. "Perfect" he said to himself. He was thinking of things to give his mom. Finally he decided to make her a birthday card. He called his cousin Mary to help him make the card and she said she would be there in 20 minutes.
          "Okay. We need construction paper, a pen, colored pencils, glue, and glitter. First they cut out the card. Then they wrote- 

       Dear Mom,

Happy Birthday!
We hope you have a happy birthday and get what you want as a present.
We love you very much.
We hope you enjoy this day.

                                                                                                                                  Love, 
Johnny and Mary  

          "I think that's good enough" Johnny said happily.
          "All we need know is to draw some pictures. After they drew a picture of Johnny's mom they added glitter. Then they left it and went to eat lunch while the glue is drying. When they got back they saw Johnny's dog Sparky ripping up their birthday card. "No Sparky. Bad dog" Johnny yielded Sparky.
          "What are we going to do know" Mary groaned.
          "Lets make another one." Mary started working on the second card while Johnny locked Sparky in his room. When He got back Mary was almost done. "What do you have left to do?" Johnny asked
          "I just have to draw a picture and put on the glitter" A little while afeter they finished Johnny's mom came in.
          "SURPRISE!" They yelled together.
          " Thank you both" She replied.

Quote

            Do not accuse people for what they have not done. " Do what you can, with what you have, where you are." ( Theodore Roosevelt) Believe what  people say. There is no way to tell if it is the truth or not. Trust people for who they are.
            This has happened to me. When someone in my english class accused me of messing their things up. They should have gotten proof or asking someone else if they saw me doing that before getting fustrated at me for no reason. Do what you have with the information you have.
            This is now happening in middle and high schools now. There are now random locker checks. The administration is now checking students lockers or knifes, guns, and illegal perapenilia. The administration should only check the lockers of students they have tip-offs on. It is not right to check nice students who do not act up in class.
            It is not right to say certain people have done things with the wrong information. "We must all face the choice between what is right and what is easy." (J.K. Rowling) It is easy to accuse people of things they have not done. It is right to obtain the right information then accuse or to apoligize for their actions.
