You walk in the room
Like you’re the best
I would
Have to
Disagree
Funny but
Mean
Argumentative
Strong opinions
By the way
I really am
Not irritating
You are
Mock me
I mock you back
Laugh at me
And I might laugh back
All you talk about
Is one thing
All day long
I don’t think
You could go
Five minutes
Without talking
About this topic
I think
You need help
On how to be nice
You should ask
Emily
She will teach you
Over confident
Who honestly cares
If you are better than
Me
At writing
Grow up
I don’t need you
To tell me what I do wrong
Also I don’t care that
You think I am
Irritating
Also I don’t like to take
Crap from anyone
And I have already proved that
To you
When I talk out loud
Its bad
When you talk out loud
Its okay
You don’t like me
And I don’t like you
Try looking in a mirror
Maybe you’ll find
Just why
I don’t like you

squishy rose
Okay so today during first hour emily got a squishy rose. Shortly after Rachel and Emily found out that it makes a funny noise when you hit it on someone's forehead. The best part is when you hit someone on the forehead you have to slurp. Also Mrs. Reagles told me to put this on my blog with a picture. I hope you all enjoy the picture. If you would like to be hit on the forehead with someone making a slurp noise then come and find Emily Sensiba:) Also it is a BLINKING ROSE THAT IS FEELS LIKE JELLY!!!

Day of the Butter fly
Many times in a person’s life they felt either left out or were considered the outcast. Mostly the “outcast” role is started in elementary school, although the feeling of being left out can happen at any time during life. When you are left out of anything, of course you will be sad and feel as if you are not important. With being an outcast there is almost no sense of hope, as though you will never have companionship in life. In the story, “ Day of the Butterfly” the main character is an outcast and left out during her elementary experiences. From reading "Day of the Butterfly” you begin to see real life experiances.
From beginning to end of this short story Myra Sayla is the outcast due to one reason. That reason is her little brother Jimmy isn’t potty trained. The first time he has an accident, Myra is asked to take her brother home. It almost seemed as if this news spread like wildfire throughout her class room. When Myra returns to school the next day everything seems strange, as though she was some sort of alien. At recess none of the other girls will play with her all because she has to tend to her little brother. Now Myra is considered the outcast, a loner, the weird girl whom no one wants to play with. School carries on and only one person seems to notice Myra’s struggles during recess, her teacher. As the teacher is on recess duty each day she sees Myra sitting with her brother, just waiting for someone to ask her to play. Eventually the teacher addresses to the girls in her class to include Myra and try to be nice to her. Instead of listening to the teacher, the other girls simply mock and make fun of Ms.Darling. Finally one day Myra is noticed by the narrator of the story, Helen. Helen is always included at recess, but yet still feels bad for Myra. When Helen arrives at school she views Myra walking with Jimmy. This is Helen’s moment to try to be nice to Myra, or at least say hello. Helen walks up to Myra and offers her Cracker Jack, and they being to talk. Just this short conversation seems to mean a lot to Myra, considering she is the school out cast. Although Myra’s school social life seems to be a challenge, the next event in this story makes her life even harder.
One day Myra doesn’t come to school, and Helen does notice her absence. Many more days carry on with her absence, and word around school is that Myra has fallen ill. For some of the girls this is no big deal because who really cares about the school out cast, right? To Helen it is different;she actually was starting to get to know her and now she is very sick. More days pass by and Ms.Darling comes up with an idea. All the girls in the class will go to the hospital to celebrate Myra’s birthday, even though it is in July. The day comes when the children go to see Myra, and when they arrive a stream of happiness seems to fill her life. All these girls brought presents just for her! Now Myra will possibly start to get friends, and have a social life if she ever recovers from being sick. Towards the end of the story Myra calls for Helen and asks if she wants to have a play date when she finally gets back to school. Helen agrees and when you read this part of the story you feel happy that Myra may be on her way to a social life. Hopefully one day Myra will feel the joy, once more if she ever returns to school.
From learning more about the story line, you see how realistic the main characters life is. From personal experience I know that there is such thing as being an outcast or feeling left out. In elementary school I remember hearing one of my friends talk about having a play date, and I shortly found out that I was not invited. The feeling of hearing this news made me want to cry and I just didn’t understand how I got excluded from this play date. Myra felt left out at school because no one wanted to play with her. The events in Myra’s life are also comparable to the book Speak. The two main characters in these stories are definitely outcast at school. The only difference is that Myra is an outcast due to her brother and the Melinda from Speak called the cops because of a horrific event. From personal experience of being left out and comparing another main character from Speak you are shown how things like this can happen.
All in all “Day of the Butterfly” shows that kids can become outcasts in elementary school. From this story there is a major lesson learned. The lesson would be treat others as you would like to be treated. Myra was treated as an outcast, a loner, and the weird girl. I’m positive that the girls that did not include her would not like to be treated like she was. The story “Day of the butterfly” truly does show that kids are mean in elementary school, and that you should only treat people the way you would like to be treated.

Strange Couple
Strange Couple
Grungy brown hair
Orthopedic shoes
Navy Sweatshirt
Not my type at all
But to her, I guess that’s her type
Hands
Twined together
Small hands
Fake blonde hair
Girlfriend and Boyfriend or just dating?
Can’t tell which one
Strange couple
Either way
I see a strange couple
They see a perfect one
Ripped jeans
Grey skinny jeans
Will they last?
My bet is
No longer
Than a week
