My Cat is Talking
By Duncan Metcalf
(a story I wrote for English)
One day, my cat Buck and I were really bored. We made some lunch. I had a
sandwich, and I gave Buck some alphabet soup. The next day when I woke up, Buck was sitting on top of me and said, “Hi Duncan!” I was so surprised to see that he was talking! My face turned red till I fainted. Everyone in my family was so surprised that they fainted too!
On Monday, he helped me with my homework. On Tuesday, I called the doctor and said, “Doctor, my cat is talking!” My doctor said to come over the next day. When we went to the doctor, I told him, “He is actually talking! He can help me with my math, science, literature, English, history, and even algebra!” The doctor said, “He may have letters in his brain. Did you give him alphabet soup because the letters would go to his brain, you know. Do you want him to keep talking, or give him a special drink to make him stop talking?” I said, “Well, I’ll give him a special drink that will make him stop talking, because I like it when he’s normal.”
Then I went home and gave him the sweet drink. He didn’t like the blue drink because he thought it was grape juice. Buck doesn’t like grape juice. I put some milk in it and it looked like the milk, but it didn’t change the taste. I talked Buck into it, and he drank it. Then, he was back to normal the next day. But he couldn’t help me with my homework anymore.

The Future- An English Assignment by Me
Do you wonder what the future would be like? One hundred years from now, the world would be in a different place.
The first thing that would be different is school. Maybe we would have laptops instead of backpacks. No more paper, no more pencils, no more spelling, no more text books, would be cool. Spell check on laptops would help you not worry about spelling your words wrong. Downloading text books on laptops would make it so that you don’t have to worry about carrying your heavy text books home. In the future, we would have massage chairs that can vibrate your back really fast and you can lean back on them. They would have arm rests and are really bouncy and soft. We would have more simple desks because we don’t need storage for books and other stuff. It’s all on your laptop. There is no more need for chalkboards because we could use a big screen with all the supplies the teacher needs. I think I’ll like school in the future.
The second thing that would be different is transportation. Cars would be powered up by recycling trash. If you put trash in your engine, it would be turned into fuel. Cars would hover above the ground about 6 inches. There would be no more need for wheels because they fly low to the ground. Cars can hover at least 100 mph. People would use jets more than airplanes because they are faster and bigger. They can fly 1,000 mph but you wouldn’t feel the speed because you are inside the jet.
The third thing that would be different is the houses. We would have robots that did things for you. They would be servant-like. They would clean your room, clean up the front yard, do your homework for you, and rake the leaves, just to name a few. We could have much softer couches to sit and lay on. When you need to read a book, say a poem, and relax, you’ll feel a lot more comfortable in this couch. Then we would have a TV the size of your wall. It would be fun to watch the news, the sports, and cartoons. Playing video games would be cool because it would be like you were in the video game.
That’s what I predict the future would be like in 100 years. I have a feeling that I am going to like it in the future in 100 years, although I will not live to see it.

The Pumpkin Walk
I went on a pumpkin walk tonight. I liked it, well, sort of. Anyway, I saw many crazy things like, Indiana Jones, Kung Fu Panda, and other stuff. Then we had to go find Audrey's pumpkin, but we really didn't find it though. I was so anxious to get home. Although I didn't like to go, it was spending time together as family. Well we all had a good time.

Things that Make me Mad
There are some reasons why I get mad. The first reason is, when I get grounded. It's so irritating, I hate it! the second reason is, when I can't play video games. I mean, video games are my thing, I hate it when it happens! And the third and final reason is, when I can't get on the computer. And I like the computer, you know that! Well those are all the reasons why I get mad
