Emily And The Case Of The Disappearing City.

   Once there was a detective whose name is Emily and she is the best detective yet. Now one day she and her family went to a city for a vacation. It was time to relax but when they get to their location, there was no city! For a moment Emily thought that this was the wrong location but when she looked at the map it was the right one. And so she thought this was another mystery.

   “Are we lost?” asked Emily ’s big sister, she was the laziest of them all. Emily’s sister is always complaining and doesn’t help at all. “It should be here! It should be here!” Emily’s father said. “Oh, great we’re lost!” Emily’s mother said. Everyone except Emily was complaining in the car until Emily’s father said that it is getting late so it was time for them to go home.

   Emily could not believe that the trip was futile. And since it was a holiday, their mother said that they will have their vacation in another city so they went to the nearest city and found a hotel. They were so tired so they went to sleep except for Emily. She was still thinking about the city and a few hours later she left the hotel and drove her invisible car. This car is so magical that if you touch it you will be invisible too.

   When she got to the city there were dead trees, weird people, and haunted mansions. She got curious hence she went into the mansion and she saw a big cobra!  It was trying to squeeze her tight but Emily tried to free herself it but it was too late the snake trapped Emily so tight. Then the cobra’s tail accidentally bumped the sleeping spell which was lying on a desk near the snake that made the cobra and Emily very sleepy. She tried to stay awake and then the witch who lives there brought her to a scary bedroom and the witch locked her up. Then she realized that the mansion, the sleeping spell, and the snake were owned by the witch. It looks like Emily is refraining from being sleepy then she saw an open window so she jumped out. She asked the weird people outside but they don’t talk at all although they were in great abundance. She bumped into an old lady who welcomed her into her house as she told her a story about why the city became haunted.

   Then it was time to go home so Emily said goodbye and drove back in her invisible car and waved to the old lady who quickly waved back. Off she went as she passed the crevice of entrust thinking thoughtfully about the city. It stands for a reason that it was, first of all, a beautiful city until an earthquake destroyed and it killed so many people that it became a haunted city. When she went back to the hotel, her family was just waking up to go out for breakfast. They didn’t know that Emily went out and solved the mystery of the vanishing city. The End.

The Truth About Dinosaurs

   Millions of years ago, dinosaurs ruled the Earth. The time when dinosaurs dominated the Earth is called the Mesozoic era. That was the time before humans lived although not all dinosaurs lived in one period alone. They were born in different periods. The first period is the Triassic period, this was where the Herrerasaurus reigns. The next period is called the Jurrasic period. This was the time where Stegasaurus appeared. On the Cretaceous period, the king of the dinosaurs, T Rex was born and this was the end of the line.

Brachiosaurus

   The dinosaurs are extinct but some of their descendants are still around and this is in the form of birds. Paleontologists have discovered that dinosaurs evolved into birds like cockatoos and hummingbirds. We know why because birds lay eggs like dinosaurs and they have scaly feet although some characteristics of dinosaurs are not copied by birds like how they grate their food with their teeth and how they roar.

Velociraptor

   Dinosaurs are depicted in films but of course, they are not always true. I mean, dinosaurs didn’t live in the same period. The T Rex didn’t interact with the Mastodon which is a wooly mammoth. Humans and dinosaurs have a different period too. The movies about the dinosaurs have some truth in them too.

Supersaurus

   Today, even if we don’t see dinosaurs like a giant reptile, we can still see their fossils. Fossils are the bones of the dinosaurs that turned into stones. When a giant meteorite crashed down the Earth, clouds blocked the sun for months and this was a devastation for the dinosaurs. But small animals survived this pandemonium but most plants died and this was the time when dinosaurs disappeared. Today, paleontologists are digging evenly to uncover fossils. There is always a dinosaur fossil waiting to be uncovered. So loathe them or love them, dinosaurs are the best!

Mimi's Drawing

It’s storytime again and this time around it’s about a cute little girl who loves to draw and a teddy bear who magically appeared. I hope you like it. Mimi’s Drawing A girl named Mimi was a magnificent artist! She once won a drawing contest and received a package full of toys, isn’t that awesome?

The Teddy Bear

One day she wanted to draw again and this time she drew a teddy bear with brown fuzzy fur, cute little eyes, a mouth full of joy and a sniffly little nose, isn’t that cute? Then it was time for lunch so Mimi went down to eat but then her drawing, the teddy bear started to come out of the picture. Then the teddy bear heard footsteps and he doesn’t know who it is but it was just Mimi walking into her bedroom. She went inside her room and saw what happened, she shrieked in fright but the teddy bear said, “stop! I will pay you a compliment for making me.” “Alright then”, Mimi said, this time she was noble and brave. “And what is the compliment? asked Mimi. “What do you like to do?”, the teddy bear asked. “Well I like to go to the Run Around Amusement Park,” said Mimi. “Then that’s where I will treat you.” the teddy bear said. “But how?” said Mimi. “Don’t worry I will draw some money.” said the teddy bear. “You can draw too, that’s great!” Mimi said. “Teddy bear you must be very hungry, let’s go have lunch first,” said Mimi.

The Monster

After lunch, Mimi felt like drawing again and this time it was a monster and when the monster came out in a flash, it chases Mimi! But Mimi knew how to outrun the monster so she didn’t move a muscle and she started to crumble the drawing and gradually the monster disappeared. “I think it’s time to stop drawing,” Mimi said. The teddy bear overheard that and said to Mimi, “no don’t desert your drawings, I love them.” “You do?” asked Mimi. “Of course!” said the teddy bear. “Well I do love drawing,” said Mimi. “And it is also my passion so I guess I shall continue my dream,” said Mimi. So from then on, Mimi continued to draw but this time she drew cute little things. The End.

I hoped you like it, it's a silly story, anyway see you at the next storytime.

In The Dark

It’s story time again so this time you’ll be spooked a little maybe and scared!

In The Dark.

The Spooky Cave

It all started in a dark and spooky night, I was at home reading about cougars and I said, “how beautiful they are! I wish I could see one myself! Oh, but these big cats are hard to find. I wish I can see one.” Then I went downstairs and asked my mother if we can go out into the woods to see a cougar since I’ve always wanted to see one. My mother said, “not now darling, I’m busy.” So I went back to my room feeling miserable that we can’t see a cougar so I went back to reading. A few minutes later the phone rang. And on the phone was my friend and he said, “I really want to see a cougar in the wild too!”. “Well, my friend we both live near the woods so why don’t we sneak up when our parents are sleeping!” I said. “That’s great! I will get some of my toy weapons in case there’s a monster”, he replied back. “Of course there are no monsters in the woods!” I said. That’s when I put the phone down and waited until my parents are asleep. After few minutes I heard them snoring and I knew they were asleep so I sneaked out of the house and meet my friend.

The Monster

And believe it or not! My friend did get those weapons but they are made of plastic. “That’s not going to work,” I said. Anyway, after that, my friend and I walk to the woods when all of a sudden we saw a cave. “Look! a cave let’s go inside”, I said. “I’m too scared to go!”, my friend said. “Alright then I’ll direct you to stand guard here”, I said. So while my friend was guarding the cave I went in all by myself. It was so dark in the cave when all of a sudden I bumped into something big and hairy strong, fierce big wings and sharp teeth and big claws and big jaws. It was a monster! So I shrieked with fright and ran as fast as I could. I had to outrun the monster and so I shouted “help! help! somebody please help!” And guess what! My friend outside helped me and he said “you bad monster! Stop chasing my friend!”. The monster was ravenously hungry but my friend defeated the monster and subdued it. I didn’t expect that the toys will come in handy because it helps defeat the monster. Oh well, after that I heard a big bang and then rocks came falling down the cave. “Quick, run its about to collapse!” I said. So my friend and I ran out of the cave and from then on we never walk into the woods again and learned our lessons to always obey our parents. THE END.

I hope you like this story!

The Book

Welcome back to story time. I hope you like ghosts because this is a ghostly story. Enjoy!

THE BOOK

The Book

In the corner of my bedroom is a book that was never touched and was never read.
Since I’m not reading it, it’s getting old and dusty so I started reading it. On the first
page, it said, a girl was envious about the book, unfortunately, she tried to steal the
book and gradually she turned into a mist. The name of the girl was Samantha,
a girl standing right next to you.

The Ghost

And believe it or not! The girl from the book appeared right next to me and of course, I took fright at the apparition and then I called, Mama! Mama! Mama come rushing up the stairs to see what’s going on and gradually the apparition was fading and when Mama came into my room she didn’t see a thing. Anyway, I asked my mom to sleep with me tonight so the thing that I saw won’t bother me.

The Dream

But guess what! the next day there was no sign of my mother only the apparition and so then I called. Papa! Papa! Papa came into my room but the girl disappeared again so I told my Papa if I can sleep in his room. I slept peacefully that night but when I woke some things changed. First, my Mama disappeared and now my Papa. I took fright and thought that the apparition will chase me so I ran into a room full of ghosts and even worse the door was locked so then I cried for help. Help! Help! and I woke up wondering if that was a dream. And gradually I realized it was a dream after all but when Mama came into my room I was not pleased. She struts around my room and then she said this is my most favorite book and told me “I know you love books so I thought you will love it and read it all over again”. Well, I didn’t really like her surprise so I just put it on the shelves hoping someone would not read it. The End.

I hope you like this story you might get too spooked but don't worry, that won’t happen. I hope you sleep better at night!

A Mystery in the Library

It is storytime! The title is A Library Mystery, ok so I hope you're ready because this is going to be a mysterious and scary story.

A LIBRARY MYSTERY

I was in the library looking for books when all of the sudden books came falling down in aisle three so I went to see what was going on.

Floating books at aisle 3!

Miss Nada was there too looking quite surprised as all of the books were floating in mid-air. I asked what happened here, Miss Nada? But miss Nada flatly refuse to answer me and five minutes later she disappeared. I sorrowfully will miss Miss Nada but for now, I have a plight to investigate.

I saw a weird looking man with a wand and he makes all the books float in aisle eight and believe me I knew he was the thief. So I subdued the man, got his wand and tied him in a chair. Now tell me where miss Nada is! I shouted to the man. Miss Nada the librarian? the man said . Yes! That’s her! I said. Oh oh! cried the man. I must have accidentally used the disappearing spell! Here give me the wand I will try my best to bring Miss Nada back. I helped the man untie his hand and likkity spliit! Miss Nada was back. Miss Nada! I cried. I missed you! Um sorry about what I did, it was an accident, said the man. I was practicing my floating act when I accidentally used the vanishing spell. Well, said Miss Nada, it was certainly an accident so we will have to let you go you and you may practice here but clean up after you practice.

Trying to bring back Ms. Nada.

So from then on we now call this library the magical library.

The Magical Library

The End

I hope you like our short story, so goodbye until our next storytime bye-bye.

Spectacular Sagada

   Welcome to Sagada! So remember our trip to Atok, now it’s Sagada time!

   It’s my first time in Sagada and we went straight here from Atok. It was a long drive and on the way, it was like a drive in the forest because there were mountain trees, mountain rocks and lots of plants.

  After we booked our hotel, we went to a gift shop to buy some gifts and we also bought lemon pie and souvenirs. And about the lemon pie, it was delicious.

 

The delicious lemon pie!

   Yes, I know my blog looks boring but watch out because we’re taking action.

   The next day we went to Bomod-ok falls and it was a long walk. Along the way, we ate some snacks. The snack is totally amazing and there were two choices, savory lumpia, and sweet lumpia. Lumpia or turon is a type of snack here in the Philippines. It is a traditional food and my favorite too.

 

   And at last, we reached the falls. And believe me, the view is spectacular and you would feel like you’re on a rocky beach though there are some silly dirty things on the other side of the falls but it still is nice here. And the water was so cold too. I went swimming in the shallow part but my cousin went to the deeper part of the falls. But before that, I was with my cousin and SPLASH! we fell into the falls because we were not paying attention and we got wet so we swam instead.

Bomod-ok Falls

   Our next stop was Salt and Pepper diner and because we all got hungry after our adventure in the Bomod-ok falls. I ordered pasta and I have to tell you it was spectacular while the others didn’t like their food because the rice wasn’t cooked properly.

 

My Lunch!

Their Lunch!

  Then we went to see the hanging coffins and of course, we saw some coffins hanging on the rocks but the most interesting part is the story about the hanging coffins. We learned about the people who died centuries ago and why they hang the coffins. My Auntie keeps asking questions and it was about to rain and we got wet in the rain all because of lots of questions. And since it’s raining we decided to go home.

Hanging Coffins

 
   Oh well, I hope you like my big adventure from Atok to Sagada. I’ll be back there for sure because I had fun and there are still lots of spectacular places to see. That’s all for now. And I also have another cool fun story to tell, it’s coming out soon. The name of the story is a library mystery and like I said it’s fun scary epic story! All right then I need to end my blog now so bye bye!
