The Fire

Have you heard about the fires in San Diego? Almost everyone around here got evacuated! Even I did. On Monday, the 22nd, we left my house and went to stay with my aunt and uncle. Actually, we were all staying at someone else's place, because my aunt and uncle were evacuated too. My asthma got very bad, but it's better now. One cool thing, every school in San Diego was closed for the whole week. I feel very sad for those who lost their houses. At least I know my place is safe. I pray that you are safe too!

My Autobiography

In September 1998, a perfect boy was born. That boy was me, Matthew. Now I am nine years old. I live with my Mom, my Dad, and my sister, Hannah. She was born in 2001, when I was two. She was very cute. I enjoy her because she likes to play with me. One of my favorite memories was going to Disneyland for the first time. It was awesome! Last year I had many adventures. I went to Monterey, I went on my first helicopter ride and I also went to Las Vegas! They were all very fun. I love to play guitar, read books, and write stories and poems. When I was little, I wanted to be a paleontologist when I grew up. Then I decided to be a writer. Now I have my heart set on being a rockstar. Maybe someday you’ll buy one of my albums!

If I Were President

If I were president, I would want to change a few things. I would stop the war in Iraq. We are losing troops every day! It may seem dangerous, but I would send every soldier home. I might keep a few guards in Iraq, just in case. I would also give more support to poor nations and people. I would send money and food. Why? To save civilizations from death. You know, our planet needs more beauty. I want to take down all the telephone poles, and put the wires underground. I would also plant more trees. YES! And more flowers. There are many things I will change when I’m president.

Sorry!

HELLO READERS,
I'm sorry I haven't wrote back in a while. Here's a funny poem to cheer you up:

The Craziest Poem You Will Ever Read

I would,
If I could
But I can'ta
Drink Fanta,
Because Fanta
Eats Santa.
And Santa
Eats pandas.
And pandas
Eat bamboo.
And bamboo
will eat you!
