My Business Letter

Dear Mrs. Debolt:

I am an athlete. I love softball, basketball and volleyball. I love to read as well. My favorite series is The Hunger Games. Divergent is a close second. I also love to listen to music. I don't have a favorite song. So when I"m at home, I'm either reading on the couch or listening to music while shooting hoops.

Remember when I said that I love sports? Softball would have to be my favorite. I'm a pitcher. I don't play very competitive but I'm planning on trying out in high school. Yes, that means I have to give up volleyball. That will be hard, but unless I start to like volleyball better, then that's my decision.

I am not very good with computers. They sort of confuse me. I am slow at typing, but since I've been in your class I've learned a lot. I only have one computer in my house, and it's a laptop. I'm writing a story on it. I haven't really had time to work on it though, and it's more of a summer project. I love to listen to music, it's my favorite thing to do, so you can probably guess that I have an iPod. That's really the only "technology" that I have. I hope you can teach me more about computers.

Sincerely,

Kelsey Benack

The Prisoner

I can't believe this. Someone from school? Who? What did they do? I wipe my eyes. I need to help them, whoever they are. I grab my orange backpack, and shove a box of granola bars, 2 water bottles, and a change of clothes into it. I don't know what this is about but if I'm going to be gone for a while I'll need more than this. I close my eyes. I'm shivering now, even though it's 80 degrees in here. I hope they aren't a murderer. I walk to my blue pick up truck and jam my keys in the ignition, what prison? I think. I'll start at the city one. "Hold on." I whisper.
