Bruno's father said he will soon return to Berlin and when Bruno went to go visit the fence, he wasn't there as usual. Nor the next day. Nor the third day, but on the third day, Bruno waited for ten minutes only to see a speck that was growing, then he broke into a smile.

I'm scared on what the next chapter holds.

Ode

You think your really yummy,
you think your really sweet,
but really on the inside
your like a hunk of meat.

Your rough, your tough,
you make me wanna puff.
You send me to the hospital
like a hobo losing stuff.

Why you make me crazy
and go make my friends go hazy.
I find it so unlucky when
you go and make me lazy.

Palindrome

War,
Peace nor quiet
live to fight
guns fire
fight to live
quiet nor peace
war.

Maria (The house maid) felt touched because of Bruno asked Maria if she was apart of the family. Maria replied "I don't think your father would like that. Bruno mumbled under his breath "Stupid father.". Maria covered her mouth like she was shocked and look around to see if there was no one around. She said "You shouldn't say that about your dad."

I think that the book has like a very good story and I think that it's making me imagine very detailed pages.

I had a load more people in the war who had there stories untold. All I know is that they fought the war.

Killing for
My country, Fighting

Poems


Bombs
Are explosive,
Deadly, heavy, destructive
 Coming along with a
Boom.

Peace
Playing, living
Happy, humming, settle
Living large, living free
Boom! Air raids,
Making deadly
Wars.
Alive
Healthy, living
Walking, playing. Running
Being happy, Feeling Tired,
Bang! Slowly drifting
Away becoming
Dead.


As the trigger pulls on the persons gun,
The bullet is released to seek and to stun.
As the bullet pulls towards his cut.
The bullet was punched through his gut.

My weekend

In the weekend, I was excited to know, that my room, (A.K.A. me) was getting a 32 inch LED TV with Freeview HD. Downside is, it has mega issues with its screen. You can't touch it, (Normally you can't do that with all tvs) and you can't leave it on still image for like 20 - 30 mins. But still, I really like my new TV. I can watch the Olympics and wake up to C4 ( like the channel C4).
