The Last Few Weeks
... get to eat any turkey or mashed potatoes or talk about the things I'm thankful for. It was the first time since I arrived at my house that I really wanted to go home. But, everything has passed now and I should be fine until Christmas.
I would like to thank everyone who has sent me snail mail. I love the feeling when my mom walks into the kitchen and hands me a letter. It puts a smile on my face every time. I appreciate all the time and ...

The other students that were punished had to recite a 32 line Fable by Jean de la Fontaine in front of the class on Monday. I got a sudden rush of bravery when she announced that. I decided to memorize the poem in one night.
When I got to class ...
