The Busy Season

Chapter I

The Harvest on the Farm

It was April 24^th. Annie’s family was the busiest of all. Father had to hunt, so he can’t work. Mother picked vegetables from the garden. Annie collected honey from their beehive. Annie’s little brother and sister, John and Anna, were picking apples, hazelnuts, blueberries and potatoes.

Annie headed to the warehouse. The warehouse was old and rusty and full of boxes and cobwebs. Annie poured the honey in a huge honey jar. Then, she came out to harvest the wheat.

Anna went in the warehouse next. She put the things she harvested in a bag and went out to shear the sheep. John came after that. He put the things he harvested in the same bag and went out to collect eggs.

Father came back from hunt with 3 fresh deer and 1 juicy lion in a sack. He put the sack in the warehouse and went out to the market. Mother was last. She poured the vegetables in a box and went out to harvest the grapes. They made a list of what was inside the warehouse:

  

• o   5 warm bread loafs
• o   5 soft pillows
• o   5 eggs
• o   5 grapes
• o   5 grape juice pots
• o   5 fresh deer
• o   5 cheese
• o   5 milk pots
• o   5 light bulbs
• o   5 groceries
• o   5 warm scarfs
• o   5 flour bags
• o   5 wheat stalks

Anna noticed there were 5 of everything. She asked John, Annie, mother and Father if they could work some more. Annie, John and Anna worked together to fill up the warehouse. They made it just in time. The list was like this:

• o   10 warm bread loafs
• o   30 soft pillows
• o   15 eggs
• o   18 grapes
• o   6 grape juice pots
• o   5 fresh deer
• o   50 cheese
• o   6 milk pots
• o   100 light bulbs
• o   50 groceries
• o   5 warm scarfs
• o   15 flour bags
• o   30 wheat stalks

The next morning was the 1^st of June. It was cold. Father went to the attic and grabbed 10 heaters. He turned them on and placed them in the 4 bedrooms, bathroom, living room, warehouse and kitchen, attic and the hall. He turned them on at WARM. He got the whole family to meet in the living room wearing scarfs, a big warm quilt and snugly sweaters. They rested their heads on soft pillows. Annie, John and Anna, although they were big, brought their teddy bears in. It was so lovely.

Eddie run a farm

Eddie, Ken, Thomas and John were playing at Eddie’s house. The yard was huge and roomy. So, Eddie started a farm. He planted wheat first. Then, it was processed into flour. He sold it and bought 3 chickens and 1 sheep. He sheared his sheep next. He sewed it and turned it into wool. Then, he turned them into woolly clothes. Polly, his neighbor, would help him every day. The clothes earned enough to buy 1 cow, apple seeds, and juice pots and to build 1 factory. The factory had 4 rooms: Juice, cake, clothes and a shop. They made apple juice, clothes, and bread to sell. They got $49.99. They kept it in the cellar under the stairs. It was enough to make a second floor. They added Meat, Rice, Vegetable Soup

Jogja

It was Saturday, the holiday. I spent 3 days at Jogja. I arrived in the evening (because the journey was a bit too long). When I came out, my uncle and auntie were waiting. It was almost night, so I came in and took a bath. Finished taking the bath, I came out the bathroom, put my clothes on, and slept. 

In the morning, I took a bath, had breakfast, and went out to have fun. We went to Taman Pintar, a kind of place. We bought tickets, and came in a big building. I learnt about the presidents of  Indonesia. Then, we came in a bigger building, the oval building. I learnt more in there. But, I was in there for AGES! When we came out, we played some learning games. My favorite was Pipa Bercerita. It could make us contact with the person speaking with the pipe of the same colour. I came in the Oval Building again, but this time shorter. Then, the aquarium. At the end of the aquarium, I saw the dinosaur exhibit.  Then, we came in Planetarium room. I watched a movie. finally, I headed home (No, really, I came back to my uncle's house). But we stopped in the middle of the journey for buying books, and having lunch.

At night, I came to a lampion park. ALL of us wore red clothes. It was fun. I also played Boom Boom Car, Scooter, and Bounce house. I enjoyed all of them.

Feeding Time!

I own a doll. It is a blue bear. I call him Blu. Do you like it too?

I have 3 more bears. I call one of them Lambert, another one Charlie, and the last Big Bear.

I drew a picture on Paint. But... the picture has only Blu and Charlie going on a hike. Oh well. Hahaha, :-)

All of them like to eat fish, honey, blueberries, bread, honey cake, blueberry ice-cream, and chicken meat, except  Big Bear, who likes fresh cranberries and fish ice-cream...yuck!

Anyway,they are fed in the morning, afternoon, evening, and night of course. Which of them didn't? They like   mangoes a lot, so for nighttime dessert, ya, it is always mango pudding. And this is the result of the picture of 'em hiking on burnt rocks:

Blu Berry

Eastern Bluebird

Billy was a bluebird who lived with his mother on a nest in an old oak tree. The oak tree stood in the forest edge. One day, in the after on a blustery day, Billy came back from searching for the insects. He was so surprised of the sight, as a pale blue round pulled a little bit circle, sat on their nest. Billy thought that it was an egg. 
"Mummy, is that an egg?" he asked.
"Yes" She replied
"and that means you will get a baby brother or sister" She added.
What shall we named it was the next question. If it was a boy..., if it was a girl...
"Berry!" Billy shouted.
If it was a girl, Berry was her name. If it was a boy...
Mum had an idea.
"Blu!" Mum shouted.
Billy already had Blackies, his big sister, that he sometimes called her Blackbird. And now he will have a new baby. Billy was so excited.
Soon after naming was done, Mum saw the egg was hatching. Out came 2 very wet bluebirds. Billy had twins! Later, Billy went to see Mum. He was very happy to see the baby bluebirds. Blu and Berry.
