I saw this amazing pair of shoes sitting next to my grungy sneakers and by chance, they just happened to be the perfect size. I decided to try them on.

The next thing I knew, was that I was standing right smack-dab in the middle of………… a pumpkin pie, nothing more delicious. The sweet smell of cinnamon and pumpkin filled my head. The only thing wrong was that I couldn’t move, and the only things that I could do were smell, look around, and of coarse hear. So I stood there like a piece of Jell-O just waiting to be eaten. While I was waiting a breeze came down at my feet, and all of a sudden the shoes were gone. How was I supposed to get out of this pie? Well, the next thing that I knew, was that I was in a bed at Kohl’s sleeping in between the covers with the shoes on my feet.
Neverland. Then I looked up in the sky and I saw Wendy and Peter soaring through the air." Whose that". I heard Wendy say to Peter."I don't know. Thats fly down there and meet her. She looks nice and very pretty." Peter said. Wendy grew furious. " I don't think she's pretty." "Excuse me but I can her you guys talking." I said. " Well I'm very sorry. Im Peter and this is Wendy." Wendy just turned her head. From the moment she saw me she hated me. We sat and chatted for a while. Peter was talking about tinkerbell and that she died because Hook captured her. When I heard that I started balling. I always wanted to meet her. After we stopped talking he took me around Neverland. It was the coolest thing. And I was so sad when I had to leave. I have to go because Im going to visit Neverland and see Peter and Wendy. By

THE PACIFIC OCEAN! Well, not really. He was standing on a boat in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. But still, it was the middle of the Pacific Ocean because there was not an island in sight. He didn’t know how he got there but he did know one thing…he was an eleven year-old boy who was all by himself in the middle of nowhere. He had to steer this boat back to shore. He didn’t know where this boat was supposed to go but he knew that it wasn’t supposed to be in the middle of the Ocean. He knew he had to start moving before it gets too late. He went full speed for about 1 & ½ hours before he saw something. “ Land hoooooooooo,” Mark shouted. When he finally reached land, his parents were waiting there. He sprinted towards them and asked them if they knew how he had got in the middle of the ocean. They didn’t know how he got there but they knew he was there because there was a note left in their kitchen. Here is what it said:
Mom and Dad,
I am not running away. I am feeling a little crazy today so I think I will go sleep in the Pacific Ocean. I got an A+ on my Lunch test today and that is not good. Not good at all. If you will excuse me, I am getting tired so I think I will go sleep in the Pacific Ocean now. My bed is not good enough to sleep on because it smells like Froot Loops. That gave me the idea of sleeping in an ocean. BYE!
…middle of… well at first I didn’t know where but then I turned around and saw I sign that said, “You are now entering Candy Land, population: 200.” I just couldn’t believe it! I was actually inside the fantasy board game that I loved playing! Then I wondered what I was going to do first. Well of course I would do what any other candy-loving kid would do, eat! So I ate starbursts, laffy taffy, suckers, chocolate, jolly ranchers, Reese’s, tootsie rolls, gummy bears, snickers, nerds, jaw breakers, and any and EVERY other candy there is. As I was gulping down another starburst I ran into a rather pretty looking fairy but she was no mystery person to me I knew right away who she was, “You’re the gum drop fairy!” I blurted out but she didn’t mind instead she gave me a huge tour of all of Candy Land. She even introduced me to some of the other characters. But from walking all day my feet got soar so I took off my shoes and poof! With out even a good bye I was back in the store. I bought the shoes. And that was the first of many fun trips to candy land.
THE END
When I put my left shoe on the whirlwind started and I landed in the middle of the Grand old Opry stage singing. It was like a total shock. Then people looked at me and I was freaking out. So all of sudden Taylor Swift grabbed my hand and I got to sing with her, it was the time of my life! Then when she was done with her concert, she took me back stage. I told her want happened. She thought I was a little weird, but all I was thinking about is how to get home, so then I went on her touring bus .Then I went to sleep and I took my left shoe off. I whirlwind backed in my house and I said that was so sweet.
the effect passed, as I realized that no amount material things could ever truly give me what I've been searching for my whole life. What really mattered I already had and the search for truth continued, however those were some good shoes so I kept them.
Just thought I'd drop in and see what the fine folks at FIL are doing on this blog, have a good week. Oh and by the way do you still have that video tape of me doing my china project for 6th grade? I'd love to see it.

I would find a rare 5 decillion dollar bill. I would help the poor, go on mission trips and go to china to help develop new software. People would say share it with me I am your best friend but I would share it with my family. I would buy the touch pc, and an iphone. I would shop and shop and shop. I would go to Hollywood and be a star I would work with people who cant do the things we can do. I would be a computer development chief of my own computer company. I would donate computers everywhere around the world.
An NBA basketball game with a uniform on, and Shaq on a fast break heading right towards me I dove out of the way and Shaq scored on a layup. The coach called time out. Good I thought, now I can leave, but then the coach said, “Wade, get back here!” Then I figured it out, I was Dwayne Wade, the star player of the Miami Heat, and I was playing the Phoenix Suns. The coach started yelling at me because of me letting Shaq. Then coach started making a play designed for me to get the last shot. I was supposed to bring it up, get a pick, drive left, pass it out and go right the other players would swing it and I could shoot or drive. We started out, I heard the announcer say, “ 11…10…9” I passed, but then tripped. Beasley had the ball, “5…4…” He was about to pass it, but Steve Nash hit it away, I grabbed it, “2…1…” I threw it up backwards. The buzzer sounded I turned around and saw the ball sitting on the front of the rim, stuck there. After 5 seconds, someone opened the door and a gust of wind blew the ball in. The players started piling on me. Couldn’t breathe, so I took the shoes off and was back at home.
I was standing smack dab in the middle of Antarctica!!! Where in the world was I? So I started to walk and fell over as I stood up I saw that my shoe lace was untied so I bent over and retied it. When I was finished the whirlwind started up again. Next I found my self on top of the Eiffel Tower! I was in shock.
Something came to my mind. Could it be the shoes that were taking me places? So I bent over and looked sure enough. My shoe lace was untied ANGAIN.
Thinking it would take me home I retied it and the whirlwind started AGAIN.
Next I was standing in the water on the beach. Oops! I should take my cool new shoes off so they don’t get wet I thought. When I took the left one off I was in my house sitting on my bed. Wow, I thought. My parents are never going to believe this!
the internet. I could view the data streams coming and going and, somehow comprehending them, followed towards my usual haunts. I arrived at many sites to find that they remained as mundane when I was in them rather than simply browsing them through a computer. While admiring the nigh all-powerful Google servers, a small, seemingly insignificant, stream of code passed me. Something pulled my toward it and, bored as I was, I made no attempt to avoind it. Following closely, I saw a bright light ahead, growing larger and larger on the horizon. All around me voices chanted 'Escribiras en el blog de profe' Suddenly, I burst out of the data stream and onto a site. Due to format changes, it took me a moment to get my bearings and realize that I was on http://blogwithmissmille.blogspot.com. Feeling nostalgic, I entered a comments page and began to write: the internet. I could view the data streams coming and going and, somehow comprehending them, followed towards my usual haunts...
I return in my glory! And in my greed. I can't allow Zach/Met to get all the attention. Just dropped in to say hi, rather than finish a three page paper for tomorrow. It's only ten o'clock...

The middle of a basketball court. I looked down and I saw the Celtic’s logo. Then I looked down the court and saw Larry Bird dribbling down the court with Magic Jonson right behind him! Then Larry Bird passed the ball to me and I started down the court and did a one handed dunk! And the crowd went wild! Then when the Celtics got the ball back Larry Bird came down the court and shot a three pointer! After the game Larry Bird gave me his autograph. Then he invited me over to his house to shoot baskets. Then I woke up.
I was standing smack-dab in the middle of..... Kenya,
And my pen pal mercy lives there. All of a sudden this African kid comes out and says “hey who are you?”
“I am Mary Katherine.”
“I know you Mr.peter sends us stuff and you’re my pen pal, come let me show you around.”
So we did that for two hours and we also did a Safari at Kenya national park and I took a lot of pictures and then guess who I saw pal weaver and I got to shake his hand and then I woke up I was a very cool dream.
A basketball court with the ball coming right at me. I started to duck but then I realized I was a player in the game. It was not just a game. It was game 7 of the NBA championship. The coach started yelling at me because that could have cost us the game. After I realized what I was doing, I turned my game on. They kept passing me the ball and I kept scoring and scoring. We won the game. I was MVP of the game. Once I got in the locker room, I took the shoes off. I felt a wind and I opened my eyes and I was right back where I began.
… Smack- dab in the middle of Brazil on the Brazil soccer team’s feild . The shoe I tried on was really a soccer cleat. It was the most amazing thing, all of a sudden Ronaldinio passed the bal to me. We were playing the Galaxy and when I was dribbling I had to get pass David Beckham to go to goal. There I was Write up by David Beckham and then I stopped and said “can I have your autograph”? The Whole stadium started laughing and laughing. I couldn’t help but laugh too. Then David Beckham gave me his autograph!
Well I was tecnelly sitting, but on the inside of a spaceship! at first I was totally freaked out because I didn’t think I knew what I was doing. When I looked down at the controls I noticed that there was a big, bright, red button I knew that I was taking a chance but, I pressed it any way. To my surprise the space ship didn’t suddenly explode or take me for a wild spin but instead it remained on coarse. I continued to look at the controls I thought that I was going to the moon but on a big screen I saw a flashing word, E A R T H , earth! After that I sat back and waited to go home.
Nice story Small Fry but here's mine. And I landed in the middle off… well I really didn’t know, all I could see were clouds. I was curious how I was in the clouds, so I chose to set down to think. When I was going to set down I made a bad mistake, I started look down. I screamed in terror of what I saw. I didn’t notice it before but I was flying full speed at the ground! I didn’t know what to do! I tried to flap my arms to fly. *Failed* I tried to air swim upward. *Failed* I tried shouting for help. *Failed* I was getting closer! I tried to find a plane to land on. *Failed* Suddenly, a monstrous mouth came out of the ground and grabbed my feet. I pulled my feet out of his mouth, but my shoes stayed in. I was suddenly sucked upward into a green, spinning, creepy hole and fell on my TV. That really hurt. “Hay, it could have been worse,” I said to myself. I got up and wondered if it was real. Was it? So that was my story. Did you like it?
I was standing in the middle of…. A NASCAR race! I saw a green blur coming straight at me! I jumped in fear of my life. All of a sudden I was on a cruise ship! It was headed right to Hawaii! Then a guard said
“Where is your ticket?” I had no answer. I strapped on a life vest and jumped over board. This time I landed in Death Valley CA. Tourists looked at me funny because I was in the desert with a life vest on! I saw a rattle snake and jumped! This time I landed right back where I started, by the pool. Before hand I was coming out of swimming lessons when I saw these amazing shoes and tried them on. That was a big mistake. I will never do that again!
The End
I was standing in the middle of a moto-cross track. Standing around me was all the pro dirt bikers, like Chad Reed, Travis Pestrana and many others. They were doing all kinds of tricks for me. At this time Travis Pestrana landed the first double black flip. Everyone was cheering. Also at this time, Chad Reed won the moto- cross championship. I looked around, and their was my dirt bike standing on the track. The pros, said, "Would you like to ride with us?". I said, "Of course, you guys are the best riders in the world!" So I joined them and I was practicing the jumps to get used to them, when all of a sudden I landed a no hander. They were totally impressed. Travis Pestrana said maybe one of these days you could grow up to be a free style dirt-biker like me. He thought I would be able to land a double back flip when I grow up. I tried racing Chad Reed. I stayed mostly behind him. He was really impressed. He also thought I could grow up to be quite the pro on a dirt bike. Travis Pestrana and Chad Reed shook my hand and told me to keep up the good work. Keep practicing and you will grow up to be a professional.
yeah, we've been getting an onslaught of those lately, I love it when you drive in circles.
I saw this amazing pair of shoes sitting next to my grungy sneakers and by chance, they just happened to be the perfect size. I decided to try them on. First I slipped on the left shoe and laced it up. As soon as the right shoe was on my foot I felt as if I was in a whirlwind and the next thing I knew, I was standing smack-dab in the middle of my Pokemon Diamond game except every thing was real. It was just were I saved last. I wanted to see my Pokemon so threw all my pokeballs and out came Prinplup, Ponyta, Geodude, Kricketune and Hoothoot. I want to train my Pokemon so I can go beat up Team galactic that’s the next thing I need to do. So I trained Then I walked into the Galactic Building beat all the Galactic grunts then the boss. After that I went to get all my gym badges. Witch took a lot of walking and training. Then I beat the Pokemon league. As soon as I beat the Champion I felt that whirl wind feeling and I was at my house all of a sudden.
… a Dinosaur Battle! A triceratops and a T-Rex! I made a run for it. I dodged several dino feet, and avoided a sleeping Allasaurus, but then I got really confused. I saw all different types of animals from our time! Then I saw Noah getting ready for the flood! My eyes widened. The flood! Only Noah and his family and the Animals survived that! So I went to the highest point I could find and I cut down a tree and sat on top of it. Then when the flood waters came I floated on top of the rising flood waters. Then after only the mountain tops remained my log started sinking! So I slipped off my shoes and when they sank I felt as I was in a whirlwind and I found myself back where I started. There in front of me were the shoes. I decided that was enough adventure for today.

First I slipped on the left shoe and laced it up. As soon as the right shoe was on my foot I felt as if I was in a whirlwind and the next thing I knew, I was standing smack-dab in the middle of...a roof looking 3 stories down to the ground with my guns ready!! I realized that I was one of the secret servant dudes. I looked down and some signs said “McCain for president” and “Palin for vice president”. I saw that I was standing in a campaign with McCain. I had to get up really early and I carried bottles of water on my leg to keep me hydrated. I was talking to other secret service guys down on the ground and on other roofs. I was looking at the crowd through a strong pairs of binoculars and on other roofs and in the sky. After mccain left I was able to leave on my motorcycle while the other secret service men rode on the bus other secret service men. Suddenly I was back at home and I liked it being a secret service guy.
I was standing smack-dab in the middle of the Earth. I wasn't at the equator, I was actually in the center of the earth. Wow! It was very hot, but my shoes were protecting me from the scorching heat. I started looking around and saw bones of extinct animals like the dinosaurs. I then noticed a small house in the distance so I walked over to it. As I got closer there were all these very little people moving around. They had a village in the center of the earth and were all busy working. Some of them were cooking, some were carrying water, and other were mining for these beautiful stones. They were very friendly people and showed me these special stones. The stones were shinier than any diamond and they had special powers. Then all of the sudden I was in the middle of a store trying on a pair of shoes. I knew then that if these shoes fit, I was definitely buying them!
I was smack-dab in the middle of...

THE END
A trap!! I aught sight of the calendar and it was April 1st, Happy April Fools Day!! My older brother Jim loves pranking me on April fools day. I wasn’t sure what he was planning but it must have been pretty complex because there was no strings, no glue, and no brother to be found. I didn’t know what to do so I took a step, but nothing happenend. I took another step and again nothing happened, so I decided to start walking and that’s when it started to happen. I decided to take them for a test run outside and when I opened the door a bucket of worms fell on my head!! Then I was angry so I decided to prank him, which I did. My brother always stays in his room except for school, so I tricked him. When he opened the door for school, a spider popped out at him, he is REALLY afraid of spiders. He fell backwards on marbles I had on the floor and he fell into the trick wire and a bucket of snakes fell on his head! And he never pranked me again!
