Me In Three Objects

A short time ago I begged my parents to get me another dog because my old one died of leg cancer when I was 7. On my 9th birthday my parents got me a dog. She is a Bichon Frise. She was so white like the inside of a coconut. That is her name, Coconut. She is the best dog in the world. I love her so much and would never want her to.

Second I treasure my game-boy so much because I have had it for nine years and I love gaming and this is the only portable gaming device I have. I got it from my grand mother for my forth birthday And when I play with my game-boy I feel connected with the gaming part of me. If I lost my game-boy I would not know what to do.

My Lego arc 170 starfighter is my favorite Lego set in my collection. I got it for my last birthday form my Grandmother I love Lego because it is so fun to build it and after that I play with it if my Lego brakes I would be so mad and most chances are I would lose a lot of peaces and would not be able to build it again. and i have had so many fum memories with it, and most of it I got for my birthday.

My Prehistoric Name

I am named after my great-great-great-grandfather, my great-great-grandfather, my great-grandfather, my grandfather, and my dad. I am the sixth generation with my name in our family. In English my name means “wide meadow”.

Yet I don’t like my name very much. People always spell it wrong. In second grade my teacher spelt my name wrong on my name tag- that misspelling lasted for the year. When people first see or hear my name, without seeing me yet, they often think I am a girl. Then when they find out that I’m a boy they tease me about it. It makes me feel isolated from everyone else and lonely like a caged bird in the middle of nowhere. I hate being so secluded from everything. it feels like this happens because of my name. And because of that, I am always in the middle of everything, never first or last. At my old school I was that kid never noticed, just there. I want my name to be something like Ryan or John. I want to blend in and be normal and not isolated and secluded from everything. But right now I am just a small fish in the middle of the big blue ocean. I am Sidney.
