I grimaced as the downpour of the rain and the relentless icy blast of the freezing winter wind smacked me head-on in the face. A kind steward who was also waiting for the NJ Transit train kindly offered me a cup of steaming apple cider.

I had an excellent vantage of the airport and the tracks from this station, but all I could see now was whiteness. "Choo choo!" The horn of the train was audible off in the distance, and the wind howled as the train neared the station. However, it did not stop in time, and sideswiped a passing Amtrak train. It lurched forward with a sickening jolt and rammed into the station. There was a loud crunch, and the crumpled mass of the train stopped suddenly. A despicable person was running amongst the crowd of onlookers which had gathered, stealing wallets and expensive jewelry, taking advantage of the discombobulation of the passengers.

The petty thief tried to steal the big fat wallet of disconcerted man wearing an opulent leather jacket and a large shiny 24-carat diamond ring, but as he slipped his unnoticed hand into the man's pocket. the an whirled about. "Stop right there you bastard, you goo-for-nothing scumbag!" I recognized the man as business magnate Bob the Builder.

The commotion had attracted several FBI officers, who immediately seized the criminal and clapped him in irons. He was led away in a SWAT car and sent to the torture facility, where he would be sentenced to death.

THE END!

Today, I went to a place where there was a barrage, and a lot of boats. When I step on a scaffold, I can see a view of the ocean. One person is conveying fish from the boat into a big truck. They are audible and are saying, " Hurry up! The person wants to get the fish right way! " Nearby, there is a hotdog station selling hot dogs. I see an opulent person buying a lot of hotdogs and drinks from it. He is benevolent and gives one to me. I also see a despicable person filching stuff, which made me disconcerting. Suddenly, I notice the shape of an imperceptible object in a muskeg right beside me. I step to a vantage point so I can see it. It was a box. I grimace at it. When I open it, there is a bunch of books inside. Later, on the bus, the steward was magnates and was playing with a golden toy. When I get home, I get very tired.

Today I woke up with a blink of an eye full of excitement ready for a big trip today, I felt a bit disconcerting when I had to sit in the bus beside my friend who had motion sickness. We were halfway through to our destination when I saw that he had a grimacing face that he had to barf, once we were there I noticed that my friend had to filch money before he came here, I took a good look at the place and it was not looking good, I heard some audible noise from the speaker, it was barely heard. I had a vantage to see clearly. There was a couple of stewards working in the station. Magnates did not care if they have a couple of scaffolds.

(Fake story but some of them are real, if I had to do this at my house it would be better.)

So one day, just a normal day I woke up for a exciting day of school. usually I like going to school, but some days I just don't want to go. Today was one of the days I didn't want to go, because we had a word word test. However, today's test was different from the previous one, we did it on a digital device instead of writing it on paper, also known as the boring way. So Mr.Collins explained the rules which were: do not use any dictionary's or any thing that defines the definition. Also, students numbers 1-13 use grimace, filching, audible, vantage, magnates, stewards, despicable and disconcerting. But i'm number 26, so my words are Barrage, Scaffolds, Muskeg, Benevolent, Trundle, Opulent,
Conveying, Imperceptible. So we started the test and this is what I wrote.

I remember a time when I was walking around with my family. I said "Hey Dad, you know that your phone is pretty easy for people to steal." To my family it was pretty AUDIBLE, but I guess it wasn't to my Dad. FILCHING is pretty easy, you just need to lead the person's focus to something else. So I "accidently" bump into my Dad while sliding out his phone from his pocket. From my family's VANTAGE point they could see the whole thing, but from my Dad's, not so much. We all walked a couple of steps and he started patting his pockets to get his phone out. Once he realized what happened he told me to give his phone back. With a GRIMACE I complied, but it was still pretty funny.

There was another time, my family and I were riding a train to get to a cruise terminal. It was a mini-vacation. I don't remember there being any STEWARDS but in the working class room there were some MAGNATES. I ventured through the train for some adventure but there wasn't really anything cool. When we were about to board the cruise it was extremely DISCONCERTING when looking down. I could see the crashing waves below in that slim crack between the ramp and the ship. What if I fell? What if I dropped something? When we got on the ship it was pretty neat. My brothers were DISPICABLE though, getting static electricity from the carpet and then zapping me. I really enjoyed spending time with my family. If you really want to know how to zap someone, I can't tell you. Why? Because it's a secret... (Just kidding, I actually never found out how.)

There was a huge sound of a horn, it was low and the sound stretched on for miles. We went through a bridge and into the giant box. I didn't know what to expect from this experience, as it was my first time. It was disconcerting in a way. Suddenly, we started to move. Surging faster with every second, I had soon found out that our vehicle was moving. Our cruise has departed.

I always had a fear for deep waters, so when I was going on a giant water vehicle, I had panicked a bit. Magnates were onboard as well, unnerving me even more. I don't know why, but I'm afraid of them. Suddenly, a steward on board announced audibly over the crowd about something. I was too busy looking over at the infinitely-stretching ocean to hear, wondering something about dolphins. I reached towards my backpack to get my camera, but it wasn't there. I saw somebody in the distance running and carrying my backpack, and filching other peoples' things as he made his great escape. He disappeared through the crowd, and I went to a vantage point to spot him. I reported the thief instantly, and within minutes he was caught. He grimaced as he was thrown into detention, along with other despicable people. For the rest of the trip, all I had to worry about was crashing and getting eaten by a shark.

"Ring! Ring!", I woke to the ring of my home phone ringing. I woke up with hurting legs. Furthermore, I picked up the phone and said, "hello? Who is this?". The person on the other line or, should I say a robotic recording, said I won a prize. Then, I asked the robotic voice a barrage of sentences but the line was cut off. Moreover, when I told my mom about this fabulous phenomenon, she was very jubilant. She said we would become opulent people if we win the prize. My mom drove me to the destination. It was very spooky and placed in muskeg. When we got to the parking lot, there was a barrage of cars waiting for us. Apparently, a lot of people won this prize. When I step through the door, the place was absolutely gigantic. there were lights everywhere and a huge scaffold was in the middle of the seats. In my surprise state, I couldn't move. After taking in the scenery I trundled around the place finding a seat. Almost all the seats were taken. Furthermore, A person stepped on to the scaffold, he made himself imperceptible. His voice was deep and rich. He said, " For you to receive this prize, you MUST SUBSCRIBE TO PEWDIPIE!". Then I heard a bunch of trucks (possibly conveying all the prizes) park behind the building. When I got back home, I went onto the computer and subscribed to Pewdipie. The moment I did it, my doorbell rang. The benevolent people sent a check of $100000000000. The money had supported me for my entire life. THE END.

Sorry Mr. Collins, I didn't write a good paragraph. I'm not very good at free writing. Hopefully I'll perfect it by practicing!

when I saw my mother walk through door towards me, she had a disconcerting look on her face. My father walked along side her with a grimace look on his face. I went up to them and asked " would the police take the case"? there answer was despicable, " no" my father said finally, "they didn't think it was worth it". " buut" my sentence trailed off and I couldn't hold back the tears, " but this wasn't a little flitching mom! it was 1000+ worth of money"!! my sister was the steward in that one moment, keeping me from over reacting and losing my consions. I just want to be audible. but we magnate back after a while and went back to our daily lives

3 months later

everything is the same as it was before, my sister and u getting on each others nerves, my parents arguing and so on. there was a vantage and quit a bit of one. for the first two month everyone was out of sorts and all over the place.

In my life, there are many stories of adventures and having fun. There are some that are more fun, some that are more boring and also some that are in between. If I were to choose one adventure to redo it would be difficult. However, after thinking about it, I would probably choose Camp Jubilee. Even if it was two years ago, I still have vivid memories of that experience.

The beginning of this was pretty boring as we had to go on buses and then a boat to get to the camp. First of all, we all trundled small suitcases to school, where we got on buses that would take us to somewhere near Kitsilano. Then we got off, and hopped onto two boats that would convey us up the Indian Arm to the camp. Once we got there, we started the heavy labor of moving suitcases to an area with shelter. The moment we arrived at our cabins, the weather turned despicable and it started to rain. However, by the time we went out again for dinner, the rain stopped. The first day was very tiring, and everybody in my cabin went to sleep except for two girls who stayed up all night. Once, late at night, although those two people were whispering, they were still audible and I could hear them clearly.

On the second day, we went to breakfast, which had basically everything. There was bacon, sausages, cereal, milk, hash browns, toast and so much more. Afterwards, our stewards split us into groups to go and do various activities. I remember that Branden, my steward, made so many horrible puns that it caused everybody in my group to grimace. We did high ropes and archery that day, which were both exciting experiences. On my last four shots for archery, I hit three bull's eyes and one that barely stayed on the target. Afterwards, we went kayaking, which was also very exciting as I have never done that before. We paddled in groups of twos and we had an amazing vantage point of the forests and the view of the Indian Arm. It was still a bit disconcerting whenever we tilted a little because there was always the chance that we might topple over. After that section of camp, we went for lunch, where the stewards told us a story about how when magnates come to the camp, they're always surprised by the good service and food because it's so different from their own lifestyle. After dinner, we played capture the flag, where both teams try to filch beanbags from the opposite team. We sang campfire songs by a fire right before going to bed.

The last day of camp was a bit more relaxed. We ate breakfast again and savored the taste of good food, and then went outside for a game of predators, where the top of the food chain (eagles) eat the snakes, which eat the rabbits which eat the grass. Other people of the same kind as someone who has been "eaten" can save them by tapping them on the shoulder. As for the eagles, when a teacher shouts KILL, then the eagles must kill a snake in 10 seconds or they're "eaten". The goal of the game is to try to make sure your population of animals don't die out. It was exciting and we played that for the rest of day. Previous to going home, we also cleaned up our bunks and had some free time before eating lunch and getting back on the boat that would bring us to Vancouver again.

In conclusion, this was one of the most exciting adventures that I have gone on. It was fun and helped me learn new things and I would gladly do it again!

Hi, my name is Anita. I am going to talk about a day at the beach.

I still remember that day is a sunny day, we all brought our favourite food. One of my friend filched a bag of chips(we only have one chip left at that time), she think that she is so lucky that she had stole that bag of chips, and she said that she will not share the chips with us, she was happy, but we are not, we think that she is the most despicable person in the whole universe. When she open that bag of chips, the funiest thing happened, there's a lot of black dots inside the chips, we all think it's ok, but unfortunately, we are wrong, these black dots are not ok, they are black sands, my friends suddenly felt disconcerting and disgusting, she cannot even stand! even tough she is not feeling good, but her voice is audible. We all laugh at her and make grimace face to her. Now, it's our vantage time! We ask my friends father which is a magnate stewards He said it will not hurt your body because she didn't eat too much! I feel so lucky that I didn't eat that bag of chips.

BAAAM! I trundled and collapsed to my knees, I was unable to get up from the floor, the pain was like a hammer banging through wood. My coach ran as fast as he could and told the referees to convey me to a hospital. How did this happen? It all started when my team and I where playing a tournament for basketball, it was the 2nd game and after half time. I had got a rebound off the boards and dribbled up to half I went through the lanes and went up for a layup, I saw a massive kid coming at me at the speed of light trying to block me bam. We both barraged into each other and I collapsed on the ground feeling nothing but pain. When I arrived to the hospital they used a scaffold to put my knee on and tried to push it down but i was unable to straighten it out. The hospital said that this problem is imperceptible to be fixed so they must take me to this opulent hospital in a different area. After 2 days of thinking about it my parents drove me to the hospital, it was huge with detailed designs and sculptures on the outside. The man that was greeting us with a benevolent smile and took us to my room, he did the procedure on me and knocked me out with medication. After a few days I went back home and was able to walk to celebrate my family went to eat muskeg berries.

During science lesson today, I had a barrage questions about muskeg. Such as "Is there any benevolent facts about muskeg, or are we able to conveying or trundle anything without a scaffold on top?' In my opinion, muskeg are looking pretty imperceptible. Often times, we may not even realized that this area counts as a muskeg, it's more likely to be a piece of soil on the platform that's sticky and swampy. In the textbook, a group in South America has been doing a research and an experience about muskeg. They've discovered that if we throw any opulent jewelry into a muskeg. For example, jewelry that's made with high amount of silver or golden. Most of the time, it wouldn't drown into the muskeg. All in all, that should be some of the knowledge I gained from this science period. I'm looking forward to discover more about muskeg in next science lesson!

Hello there. Tonight, I'll be telling you a story. Have you, humble reader... ever heard of what a Buloonie is? (I legit just made that up on the spot, don't go looking it up haha.) Legend has it, these little trolls love living in people's attics. Whatever you put in the attic, a Buloonie will most likely find some use for it. Whatever it is. They say the species used to live in the muskegs up north but due to constructions of barrages, they've moved into to the attics of humans. How do I know this? Well, you see a few months ago I heard a slight trundle upstairs in MY attic. When I went upstairs to investigate, I hid behind the attic door and peaked inside. What I saw was imperceptible. I saw little short, small human like creatures with big ears conveying opulent, fresh looking fruit from one end of my attic to the other. I saw a few of their tiny books they've made from wood and tree barks. Books titled "The Failed Scaffold Experiments" and "The Benevolent". I couldn't believe my eyes, it was amazing. I used to think these creatures were nothing but dumb fairytales adults told to children but I guess not. I decided to let them stay since I felt bad for the poor things. I would even put fruits in the attic while they were sleeping. You might wanna check your own attic to see. They're quite common in Canada.

One day when I was in Toronto, I went to see a movie in the most famous building in Toronto, the CN tower and once I saw the building I was immediately shocked by the height of the entire building. It was just pure magnificence and beauty, I just couldn't wait for the elevator to reach the top. But right after we got to the top, Security directed us right back down because of a possible fire hazard. And so I went down with my family, we were all very sad and disappointed by this news and because of that my parents brought me to a movie theatre to watch a movie.

Well, I choose a short film about a train robbery in Nevada. And in the trailer, I was so interested in how the whole thing, and how it started and ended, and when my parents bought 3 tickets for the movie and the movie was called ANCASE robbery.

Once we were all seated, the movie began, and the first thing I saw on the big screen was a group of tall men dressed in black and white suits, with some type of security detail, and I have reason to believe that they are American magnates. And once they got on the train, the Stewards began to pass out the appetizers and wine for the gentlemen.
A few minutes after the magnates finished their food a waitress came to hand out hot towels to everyone in the room. But right when the Main course arrived, there was a huge explosion near the front of the train, and right then the security pulled out their weapons. I saw this and thought they explosion was probably from the robbers, and once the train security went outside, their faces all turned to grimace because of the number of armed men surrounding them, and immediately the security retreated into the train cart and reported to the magnates.

“Good morning Breanna!” my dad exclaims. “What time is it?” I ask. “4:23 AM, it's time to pack up and go soon.” My dad walks away with a grimace face. “I guess i got to get up.” I stretch my arms out and make a very audible sound. I walk over to my bathroom to freshen’ up. “SPLASH SPLASH!” I clean up my face from the dripping water. I look outside my window to see the beautiful view, but instead i see a very disconcerting bird pecking at a tree. I go to my room and pack up. “IT'S TIME TO GO BREANNA! GET DOWN HERE SO WE CAN LEAVE!” my dad yells. I run down stairs almost tripping and walk outside. “Put your bad in the taxi, we are going to take the train!” my dad walks away.
HOURS LATER

“FINALLY WE ARE HERE!” I yell with enjoyment. We walk over to the ticket stand. “Two tickets please!” my dad asks the young lady working there. I look over to see magnates of people. My dad pays for the tickets and we go over to the seating area. I look for a vantage, so I can stare into nature. “All passengers for train 3, please board your train. We walk over to the train and board onto it. I pick a seat next to the window. “Wow look at all the people on the train! They all look so fancy.” I look around to see the many people. “Actually, those people are stewards who work here.” My dad points to a group of them. “Oh that's why!” I look out the window and doze off…

“WAKE UP! WE ARE HERE!” my dad shouts. I open my eyes to see everyone getting out of their seats. “I'm so hungry…” I whisper. My dad and i walk over to a little store on the side. “Hmmm, maybe they won't notice if i take something from here…” I filch a apple and shove it in my bag. We get outside to a lovely lady taking out bags for us. I take the apple out of my bag and start eating it. My dad notices right away. “Hey, where did you get that apple from?” Uhh… it was free! A nice lady gave this to me.” I explain. “ i don't think so. I think i saw apples at that store we were at!” My dad points out. “OKAY! Fine… I stole it… Im not proud of it…” I rub my eyes. “WHAT A DESPICABLE THING TO DO BREANNA! NOW YOU GET GROUNDED FOR 10000 DAYS!” My dad drags me along. “Sigh, I was just hungry…”

there once was a ship very huge and beautiful, some said that the shipowner was once a huge magnate before he builds this ship.Wait what I am going on a ship that’s strange, oh well whatever I thought. The captain of the ship now is a very nice steward, he always checks if there is any problem himself before going out of the ship. Hmmm, I wonder what is going to happen next I thought. As I went on the ship I soon find a good vantage spot of looking all over the ship. Soon I saw a despicable person filching an old man’s bag. “ wait up” I yelled, the person grimace as he was run away. just then eveything turn black “Wake up, or else you will be late for the school” my mother yells from the kitchen.

It was a day like any other. I had woken up and gone to the bathroom to freshen up. I ate some breakfast and waited for my parents to wake up. When they woke up however, I was told something very interesting, I was told we were going to visit our family in Bangladesh. At that moment my mind was barraged with different thoughts, when are we going? What is my family like? My mind was clouded in thought. I wondered if the house I would stay in would be opulent, but time would only tell. I was told we would go to the airport in one week, so I started to pack my belongings ahead of time. Once we got to the airport, it took quite a long time to board the plane, once it was our turn to board the plane, I trundled inside carrying my luggage. The flight was a long 12 hours forcing me to sleep on the plane, the food I was served looked so sloppy the morsels were imperceptible, until I realized it was fish. After a long flight we finally landed.

As soon as the plane doors opened, I was attacked by the smell of muskeg, and volcanic heat. The heat made me feel dizzy for a small period, but I was ok. We called a taxi, and the drivers were very friendly and benevolent, making me feel welcomed. As we started driving, I noticed that the city looked quite underdeveloped, and I noticed quite a lot of scaffolding. We arrive at my family's house, and it was quite big, which surprised me after what I had seen as we were traveling towards the house. This was the first time my extra family had met me, and they were all conveying these happy faces, which did bring a slight disconcerting feeling. From then I would be spending two months traveling and sightseeing. This was one of the best vacations I ever had.
