Title: "Me and My Hat: A Memoir"
By Thursday 10-12 section
Once upon a time in the land of make believe, there was a terrible man with a red hat and he certainly loved his hat. But one day he forgot it at home and he decided to replace it in a very unusual way. So he went to the supermarket and bought a basket full of lotion for his hair and then he didn't know what to do with the lotion. So he thought a good idea would be to make a hat with the lotion. But he didn't know how to do it so he called a friend, a famous hairdresser who worked for famous artists.
So he passed the idea on to a TV star. But the idea was very difficult.
So he decided to go back to his home and get a hat. So now, he added the hairsprays to the hat. He decided to go to a party with the hat that.
That night he met a beautiful girl. This beautiful girl told him that his hat was horrible.
So he decided to buy a wig. But the girl thought he was ridiculous so he decided to shave his head and throw away the hat.
Finally, he decided to write a novel about what happened to him.
Title: "Reese's Miniatures"
Authors: Thursday 12-14 hrs section
It was a dark and stormy night, and there was a family living in the forest. They were constantly threatened by ferocious animals so they didn't want to go out of the house. So they decided to stay in and think of a possible solution. But one day they needed milk so they went out to milk their cow. They decided the father would go first.
But when he went out he found a different landscape. On the plains there were spaceships. There was nothing moving and it was silent. So he came back to the house without milk. The family could see through a window that the cow was dead and there were many aliens eating that cow and they were having a sort of barbecue. The neighborhood was all looking at them, when another spaceship arrived and...
Thank God, I suddenly woke up. I noticed that my father brought some breakfast.
The breakfast was great and then I went to school. I bought a packet of Reese's and I ate it all. When I got home I started to throw them up and that is all.
Title: "When You're Into Drugs"
Authors: Friday 10-12 section
Once upon a time there was a black cat called Meredith. This cat was a fanatic of heavy metal, but he was a friend of mice. He used to go to every recital of his favorite bands, like Megadeath. He went to see Megadeath last week.
At the concert, he saw a mouse. He looked at the mouse and started to cry because the mouse was Mickey Mouse and he remembered that when he was a child he used to hate Mickey Mouse because he loved Minnie.
Mickey Mouse was the manager of the band and he was really angry because the cat was in the middle of the stage. Mickey Mouse called his bodyguards and they kicked him out of the concert.
But Meredith didn't find out until two days laters because he was so high. Meredith got a sex change and then decided to go to rehab and there she met Britney Spears. When she was in rehab a memory came to her mind and she remembered that she hated mice because one of them had cut her tail when she was young.
She had a magical tail with magical powers so she went to look for her magical tail. So she decided to travel all over the world in order to find it and finally found out that another cat had her magical tail. That cat was Hermione's cat. So, as she was a friend of Harry Potter, Meredith asked him to help her. But Harry said he wouldn't help her, to ask someone else.
So she went straight to therapy. But in therapy, she talked to Britney Spears and she convinced her to look for it again.
So Meredith started anew, and went on another trip. She thought Austin Powers had the tail, so she decided to recover his tail using her power.
Suddenly, she felt something. It was the alarm clock. It was 8, so Meredith got up and started to laugh because of that strange dream. Then she gave her cat something to eat.
