Johnny's Visit To The Past




It was on a summer day when little Johnny’s mother decided it was time for his first trip to the dentist. He was about to reach the age of six, and his teeth were beginning to dance around his little mouth. Johnny complained about it all day.


‘‘Mommy, my teeth aren’t healthy anymore!’’ He would tell his mother everyday at breakfast time.‘‘Johnny, they are supposed to fall down.’’ His mother would answer back. But that didn’t make Johnny happy.


He saw his friends unhealthy teeth fall down, and he was scared he would end up with no teeth just like Grandpa Michael. Grandpa Michael, oh he was old. He could barely talk, and when he talked, Johnny giggled. His voice was lame; it appeared to be he had no tongue because of his sloppy way of speech. But Johnny saw his tongue, so that wasn’t really a possibility anymore. Johnny eventually decided it was because the tooth fairy didn’t like grandpa, so she decided to steal his teeth.


‘‘Mommy, I want my teeth to be healthy, help me!’’ And with that his mother decided it was time for Johnny to visit the dentist.

‘‘Johnny, it’s your turn.’’ The lady told him. She creped him. She had the biggest mole that spread across her nasty wrinkled skin.


Johnny entered the dark room and immediately wished he could be able to escape that place that seemed a nightmare. There was the mark of blood all over the place.


‘‘I’m Dr. Bloodberg’’ The man told him. He could perfectly be the mole lady’s brother. Bloodberg had the same physical appearance, and his last name. His last name made Johnny’s heart pound faster, it scared him a lot.


‘‘Don’t worry. The last kid who died here was four days ago’’ Johnny’s pained eyes widened in disbelief. Was that man seriously telling him not to worry when kids had died there before?Johnny sat down on the wooden chair and looked around the place. Pliers, pelicans, keys with claws. On the other side of the room he saw stacks of teeth.
‘‘What are those for?’’

‘‘To replace your teeth.’’ Johnny wondered. Could they be from other people? Or even dead people? Where they from animals? He got scared, and stood up leaving the place without looking back.

‘‘I want unhealthy teeth!’’ Johnny said running out of the dentists as wondrous eyes followed the running child. What was wrong with him? I wasn’t as if he had gone back in time and found scary things. It was just a normal twenty century dentist. Yet the strange kid acted as if it wasn’t.

A Blog?

Answers to blog questions

A. What does ''blog'' mean?
A blog is a website that consists of posts in reverse chronological order that contain features such as, comments and links for the interactivity of the user

B. Define ''blogging''.
Blogging is when the user writes a post for a blog in order to be published.

C. What is the difference between a blog and a book?
The difference between a blog and a book are that: A blog is a website on Internet that works as a ''folder'' to keep your writings saved. In a blog you are allowed to edit and add new stuff you wish to publish. While a book is physical, not on Internet. And the book may not be changed, neither are you able to add new writings to it.

D. How have blogs changed recently?
Blogs are currently used globally for the purpose of not only being a diary, but are now used to impacts fields such as politics, business and society, with the words a blogger is able to post.

E. Why might you read a blog?
Personally, I would read a blog that inspires me. The content needs to be impacting and it needs to capture my attention as reader. If the blog does not contain posts that are of my interest, then I won't even mind reading it.

F. Is there a reason to doubt the objectivity of a blog? Why? Why not?
I don't think there is a reason to doubt the objectivity of a blog. After all, the writers are publishing what they wish to express to people. Unless the topics about the blog are violent, contain sex, or such, then I don't see the point of doing a blog like that, and I don't see why people would even want to read it, that is not inspiring.

G. What do you think our blog will be about this semester?
I'm really not sure what it will be about. It will obviously have to do with the class, but I do hope we are able to write about the topics that we are interested in. Because I, as reader and writer prefer to be able create things of my interest.

Who I Am



''Someday, somewhere-anywhere, unfailingly, you’ll find yourself, and that, and only that, can be the happiest or bitterest hour of your life.''


Hi,
I'm a fifteen year old girl. Yeah, that girl who is best friends with a camera.


In my free time, I love to play on Photo shop and with my camera. Rather than that, my other passions are books (I absolutely love to read!) and writing, nearly anything that pops up on my mind.


I love morning coffee and cuddling with my puppy.


In life I’ve fallen in love too much, (just one guy) but my heart truly belongs to all those little things that capture my attention and inspire me.


I really love people who like my music. I'm not a big deal. At all. I'm a thinker and an over-analyzer. But that's really enough to say about me...


A blog? Well... I think a blog is a way to express my thoughts and feelings about what I like, what I don't like. Everything that catches my interest, and people will be able to see this and know what I want to tell the world.


A blog would be great for our English class in order to not only improve our writing skills, but also learn how to express through writing.


Oh yeah... My name is Daniela.
