Joe and the dragon


By: Arjun Agrawal

It was an early sunny morning out in Joe's backyard. Joe was very poor and was hopelessly trying to find something valuable out there. After one hour of digging, Joe had struck something big and white! They were dragon bones! Joe knew that Ancient bones were worth a lot of money. But before he sold them he wanted to play around with them first.

When Joe put all the pieces together nicely, he fiddled around and threw an apple in its mouth as if it was a basketball hoop. As the apple went in the mouth and reached the stomach, the dragon began to glow!! It was transforming into a real dragon!! It seemed as if the apple was a catalyst for dragon to come to life. At the same moment of excitement, Joe was a little sad; he could have sold those bones for a high price.

 The dragon had a very distinct color of black as a shadow, with blue stripes as star, thus Joe decided to name it ShadowStar. Shadowstar was always following. It it purred and licked Joe. This was an indication that Shadowstar wanted to be friends with Joe. Thus, Joe wanted to teach and train ShadowStar in three things, fighting, how to fly, and in strategy  Joe taught him how to fly and blow fire. Day-by-Day ShadowStar got better at it. For strategy Joe taught ShadowStar chess. ShadowStar totally failed at chess. Soon ShadowStar could fly, breathe out fire, and was potty trained too. Joe realized that Shadowstar made a great fighter, maybe they could watch over the city and stop crime. But since Shadowstar didn't know much strategy. But since Joe was very smart, he could be a watch-over sidekick for Shadowstar. He could be riding Shadowstar the whole time and be telling Shadowstar where and when to shoot out fire on criminals. This made them an unstoppable team.

One day there was a robbery at the bank of five million dollars. This money was supposed to be used to build new roads!! This was Joe’s chance to save the day for the town. Joe flew out of his house with Shadowstar. When they got to the bank, Joe and ShadowStar charged at the group of robbers. Joe told Shadowstar where to shoot and they eventually created a ring of fire around the robbers. They had no escape! But one of the robbers blackmailed Joe to let them out or incinerate all the money in the fire! Joe didn't know what to do. But at the heat of the moment, the cops arrived, went through the fire with their fire resistant coats and busted the mischievous group of men. It was all over! Joe and ShadowStar had saved the day! They had stopped the robbers from escaping and gave enough time for the cops to come and arrest them. From then on Joe was known as the Bog-stopper for his brave acts is the robbery. He got a 34.68% of money that was stolen for saving the bank. That was a sum of 2.8 million dollars! Joe was no longer poor. It sure was rewarding to train a dragon. 
Joe and Shadowstar lived their lives in luxury in a smart house and a limousine  So they lived happily ever after.

Social Anxiety Essay

     My name is Arjun Agrawal. I am a 16 year old teenager in High School. I have received a lot of feedback stating that I have social anxiety and am scared to mingle with strangers. I will be taking three steps towards addressing this. I will play less video games, play more physical games with familiar people, and interact more with strangers.      Firstly, I vow to play less video games. Video games give instant gratification and happiness. This creates addiction. Addictions to video games consume a lot of time. It takes away time from interacting with other people or playing outside. Playing less video games will create much more space for social interaction.      When I am invited to play basketball with my friends, I don't join. This is because I am afraid that I will embarrass myself. Therefore, I dedicate some of my free time playing physical games with familiar people to build confidence. First, I will play basketball with my little brothers outside in my front yard.

TA-14

   John A. Fisher is a concerned parent. He believes that garden education is vital to the future of children.  His article, "Growing the Kinder-Garden" argues that schools should teach garden education. In order to convince his audience, Fisher instills a feeling of guilt, appeals to logos, and uses collective pronouns.      First of all, Fisher instills a feeling of guilt into his audience. He talks about how children in today's society barely know about gardening. He provides a strong point stating that, "if you have a young child, ask him or her where food comes from. Don't be surprised if the answer you get is 'From the store!'" This shows that most children don't know where food truly comes from. They are so isolated from the real world of farming, they think that food comes from the stores. In reality, all food comes from farms and gardens. Kids these days are becoming obese. They're eating manufactured foods instead of natural food

Positive Outlook Essay

     If a glass is filled halfway, is the glass half-full or half-empty? This is a commonly asked question to test a person's outlook. Although both choices are correct, each represents a different outlook. If they say it's half full then they are most likely a positive person. If they say it's half empty then they're most likely a negative person. Having a negative outlook on life can be pretty depressing. However, this is not permanent. It can be fixed. In order to have a positive attitude you must appreciate what you have. You can start out by cherishing nature, cherishing family, and cherishing knowledge.    The world is a beautiful place. You must learn to cherish it. Travelling and hiking are both great ways to appreciate nature. Mountainous landscapes formed by small rivers will amaze you. You don't have to go far to embrace nature. Every morning there is a beautiful sunrise right in your backyard. Chances are, if it in your backyard, it is everywhere. How
