Mulan Jr.

Hi, it's me again and I wanted to talk about the school play Mulan. First off, great cast. Everybody was hilarious and looked like they were having a great time. I loved all of the costumes (Mushu's was my favorite). The effects were a fun thing to watch. All I have to say to you guys is GREAT JOB!

Chicken soup for the teenage soul

For the past few months I've been trying to find a new book to read. I found books but they weren't the best. But a few weeks ago one of my teachers talked about a book called "Chicken soup for the teenage soul." It sounded interesting so I checked it out today and so far it's been great! It got #1 on New York Times for its bestselling authors. Here's one of the poems.
My new best friend
Retold by Kimberly Kirberger
Today I met a great new friend
Who knew me right away
It was funny how she understood
All I had to say
She listened to my problems
She listened to my dreams
We talked about love and life
She'd been there, too, it seems
I never once felt judged by her
She knew just how I felt
She seemed to just accept me
And all the problems I'd been dealt
She didn't interrupt me
Or need to have her say
She just listened very patiently
And didn't go away
I wanted her to understand
How much this meant to me
But as I went to hug her
Something startled me
I put my arms in front of me
And went to pull her nearer
And realized that my new best friend
Was nothing but a mirror

Polka dotted zebra

I bet you guys are wondering why I named my blog polka dotted zebra. Well, when I was a girl scout they told us about a zebra named Zink that all the other animals teased because he looked different. Zink tells us that it doesn't matter how you look on the outside, but what's on the outside. I think that's a great message. I think everyone should try that. Take the Zink challenge!
