Bubble Wrap

Bubble Wrap
 Why I dislike it...

  1. It's so loud....
  2. Marrissa and Summer play with it in class.
  3. I think it should  be outlawed.
  4. Causes so much stress.
  5. Reminds me of guns.
  6. Gets me in trouble.

This is why I, Devon despise bubble wrap.
Thank You

When I Grow Up...

When I Grow Up
by
Devon
When  I grow up I want to be a Pharmacist. This would require me to go to school for a long time. Although I believe this job would be challenging, I believe I could be up to the task. The pay would be good, but the job would be enjoyable knowing that I'm helping people, and making a greater tomorrow.
