    My Summer Vacation
    Ah, summer vacation! The time of year every student looks forward to - no school, no homework, just weeks and weeks of freedom stretching out ahead. This past summer was definitely one to remember.
    It started off with a bang when my parents surprised me and my little brother with a trip to the beach. We loaded up the car and headed off for a week of sun, sand, and surf. I'll never forget the look on my brother's face when he saw the ocean for the first time. His eyes grew as big as saucers and his jaw dropped open. "It's SO BIG!" he exclaimed in awe. We spent our days building sandcastles, splashing in the waves, and hunting for seashells. In the evenings, we'd have bonfires on the beach and roast marshmallows. My dad told ghost storie
s that had us shrieking with a mixture of fear and laughter. It was the perfect way to start the summer.
    When we returned home, I was glad to have a couple weeks of downtime to just relax and recharge my batteries from the school year. I spent many an afternoon reading in the backyard hammock, sipping lemonade and enjoying the gentle breeze. My friends and I would get together and have epic Nerf battles in the neighborhood, diving behind trees and bushes, yelling taunts back and forth until our moms called us in for dinner. Simple pleasures, but ones I wouldn't trade for the world.
    Around mid-summer, my parents enrolled me in a computer coding camp. I have to admit, I wasn't too thrilled about the idea at first. Learning code over summer break just felt like an extension of school. But after a few days, I got totally hooked. There was something immensely satisfying about breaking down a problem into its component parts and systematically working towards a digital solution. By the end of the two weeks, I had created my very own simple video game! My parents were shocked when I asked if I could
take an after-school coding class in the fall. Who knew summer camp could spark a brand new passion?
    The summer flew by in a blur of activities, but there was one event I had been looking forward to all year long - my cousin's wedding. My aunt and uncle live across the country, so we don't get to see them too often. But they flew the whole family out for an amazing weekend celebration. The ceremony was beautiful, and the reception was an absolute blast. I danced my feet off, stuffed myself silly with cake and cookies, and got to catch up with all my extended family members. Seeing my little cousin get married made me realize how quickly time passes, but it also filled me with excitement for all the milestones and adventures yet to come in my own life.
    As the summer days dwindled down, I started feeling a mix of emotions. A part of me was sad to leave the freedom and fun behind, but another part felt reinvigorated and ready to get back into the classroom. I missed my friends, and looked forward to seeing what new challenges and opportunities the school year would bring. Plus, I had a fresh perspective a
nd appreciation for learning after experiencing it in a different context over the summer. My coding camp made me excited to take on new, complex subjects like algebra and computer science.
    So while I'm definitely going to miss staying up late, sleeping in, and having endless hours to fill with fun activities, I'm ready to buckle down and hit the books once more. The appeal of summer may fade, but the joy of gaining knowledge and growing as an individual never goes away. This summer has given me recharged batteries, a headful of happy memories, and the drive to make this new school year one for the books. Bring it on!

    My Wonderful Family
    Hi there! My name is Emma and I'm an 8th grader at Greendale Middle School. Today, I want to tell you all about my amazing family. We're not a huge family, but we're very close-knit and loving.
sort of army
    Let me start by introducing my mom and dad. My mom's name is Sarah and she's a nurse at the local hospital. She has the kindest heart and is always putting others before herself. No matter how tired she is after a long shift, she still comes home with a smile on her face, ready to help me with my homework or listen to me talk about my day. My dad's name is Mark and he's an engineer at a construction company. He's the goofiest dad ever and is always cracking jokes to make us laugh. Even though his job can be stressful, he never brings that stress home with him. Instead, he makes sure to leave his work at the office so he can be fully present with our family.
    I'm an only child, but I've never felt alone because my parents shower me with so much love and attention. We do everything together as a family – going for hikes, playing board games, cooking our favorite meals, you name it! My parents have taught me so many valuable lessons over the years, like the importance of hard work, honesty, and kindness towards others.
    While it's just the three of us in our immediate family, we have a wonderful extended fami
ly that we're very close with too. My grandparents on my mom's side, Nana Rose and Papa Jim, live right down the street from us. Even though they're getting older, they're always willing to lend a hand, whether it's babysitting me when I was little or helping out with yard work. Nana Rose is an incredible baker and every time we visit, she has a fresh batch of her famous chocolate chip cookies waiting for us. Papa Jim loves to tell stories from when he was young and served in the army. His tales of adventure always have me on the edge of my seat!
