I recently came across my old livejournal diary from high school and college. It was a pretty entertaining read, full of the moaning and complaints of a teenage girl. A lot of "Oh, well I pulled another all-nighter" and stressed out posts caused by procrastination. You'd think I would learn, huh? Nope!
Anyways, one of the most entertaining things that I feel like sharing as an adult is actually a story I wrote when I was 8. Skilled writer in the making. I should have obviously gone into writing children's stories. I have not made any edits to the original writing from 9 years old. Here ya go:
No More Tyrannosaurs Teeth
by
Katherine Lindemann
One day a little Tyrannosaur bumped into a giant rock by accident, because he thought it was a long neck bending down. He backed up and ran with his mouth opened toward the rock, and BAM! he fell backwards into the water and two teeth fell out! When he got up and out of the water the rest of his teeth came out and got buried in the sand.
When he got home he tried to ask his mother what was for dinner, but instead it came out like this "moter what boe binner?" His mother was so surprised she shouted "Young man what happened to your teeth?!!" After she shouted this, her teeth fell out! When John's (the little dinosaur) father came home his teeth fell out! Soon every T-Rex had no teeth, and every tooth got buried in the sand.
The next day every Tyrannosaur was starving. John's parents, and a lot of other Tyrannosaurs, died. John was going to bury his parents in the sand where he lost his teeth and he found a tooth. He tried to put it in his mouth, but he could not because his arms were too short. So he dropped his parents and ran home, and tried a tree branch that looked like a hand. But still too short. He did not know what to do so he thought and he thought till his brain broke.
After that happened, his friend Brian burst into the room with his sister Angela. He said, "Dohn me an my sister bound a moubull ob beeth!" "Bou put bhem in my mouth." So Brian put them in John's mouth like he was told, and John shouted "Yippee! Yippee!" Then John told Brian to tell every T-Rex that was still alive to dig for their teeth where they lost them.
The next day every T-Rex helped each other put in their own teeth. After everyone had their own teeth in, they all went after food (which were long necks because that's what started it all!).
The End
