"How I Overcame Finding a Place For My Stuff"

This Christmas I happily received many gifts,
One was a small tank and I even got a fish
I got a cool laptop and a mouse for it as well
and lastly an owl statue that I surely won't sell

I have all these new things but no where to put them,
although I treasure them dearly like a valuable gem.
I'll need something flat, a shelf or perhaps a nice tray,
anything to put my new stuff on display.

That's it a table! That would be perfect for my laptop,
however the right size could never be found at any shop
for my room is very small, a coffee table would be too short
but a desk is too big and my organization would be in all sorts

I have to build my own table to my liking, it's the only way
first I'll get 1/2 inch plywood, cut the dimensions that I say
get four legs and.... well I'll just get my dad to build it.
Now I have a place in my room for all my stuff to fit.

"How I Managed To Make Snoopy Edible"

This year I decided to take cooking
There weren't really many options
So I didn't bother even looking
Though it went against my aspirations

because I definitely don't want to be a chef
but every year I saw the gingerbread contest
and I knew I would win as I took a deep breathe
My idea was flawless and the results nothing less

I would make Snoopy out of rice crispies
and cover his body all in white frosting
He was world consist of separate pieces
Then I'd put him together being very caring

but everything started to go terribly wrong
and none of the parts were sticking to each other
we put him in the freezer and it didn't take long,
before he was all messy but also frozen together

he was finally finished and ready for judging
my beautiful creation that I thought wouldn't work
I know I'm going to win, I can hear the change clanging
Mrs. Beiner just announced it now lets get out the forks

"Evacuate Bergen Batting Center"

The flood is coming to my workplace.
Time to seal and pack everything up,
Carry out the equipment pick up the pace,
Move it all out even the new cups.

I wasn't even supposed to work today,
My back is starting to kill me
If i wasn't getting paid for this,
I would definitely run and flee.

My lifting partner is a whole foot taller
I keep falling over from the weight
This cart of bats feels like a boulder,
My legs burn and it's starting to get late.

Now we have to pull up all the matts,
Put them in a high place so they don't get wet.
 I'm being constantly bothered by nats,
but this is the last load, one more step.

Bergen Batting Center is practically empty.
Okay... now I can go home. 

"My Battle Against Tardiness"

Senior year I finally got a free,
Even better it was next to my lunch.
It seemed much better than I could see,
the amount of freedom I had on this brunch.

Period 5 Biology was never such a hastle,
It is so easy to just show up on time,
But every day I ended up having to hustle.
Not to mention to sign in there's always a line.

Two hours of freedom is a beautiful thing,
But I never want to go back to school,
When 11:28 sadly comes around,
And then I'm stuck running like a fool.

Then I have to sit in class all sweaty,
With the taste of food still in my mouth,
Having to do the "Do Now" suddenly,
In the end I just sit there like a grouch.
