Chapter 5: Martha, GP, Wise Old Frog and Turtle Build Hammy a Home
When Martha and Hammy got back to Martha's house, Hammy said, "Martha, I do not have a place to live."
"You could live with me Hammy," said Martha.
"Thank you Martha for the nice offer, but I would like a place of my own," replied Hammy.
The next day Martha,Wise Old Frog, Turtle, and GP, and the rest of Martha's friends gathered by the riverbank to have a meeting about getting Hammy Hamster a house. Everybody agreed to get him a home.
"We don't have anything for Hammy to live in!" said Martha Mouse.
Then they all thought for a moment.
Then Martha said, "We will go look for something that Hammy could live in."
The next day, Martha, GP, Turtle and Wise Old Frog went out searching for something that Hammy could live in. Later that day, Martha, GP, Turtle and Wise Old Frog found something for Hammy to live in. It was a boot! It was atleast something big enough that he could live in.
GP started to make things for Hammy's house that night. GP made a bed, a table, some chairs, windows, a balcony and a door. The next day Hammy woke up and wondered when he would find a house. He didn't know that his friends were building one for him. That past night, Hammy stayed in Martha's house. When she woke up in the morning, she went over to Hammy and said, "Hammy, I have a surprise for you!"
Hammy said, "I wonder what it will be!"
"Come with me and I will show you. Cover your eyes," said Martha.
Hammy went with Martha outside. While they were walking outside, Martha said, "Now Hammy, keep your eyes closed." When they finally got there, Martha told Hammy to open his eyes.
Hammy opened his eyes and said, "Oh my gosh! It's beautiful! Thank you all so much! I love it!"
When he got inside he, walked around and then he went upstairs, went into his bed, curled up and went to sleep.
HOME, SWEET, HOME!
Chapter 6: Hammy and His New Home
When Hammy woke up the next morning, he went downstairs to eat some breakfast. He went to the cabinets and he found some oats. He ate them and then went out to Martha's. When he got to Martha's he said, "Thank you so much for my own house! I love it! It remind me of my old home back in the forest."
Martha replied, "Is that a bad thing? Are you sure you like it?"
Hammy said, "Yes, I love it! No, it's not a bad thing. That's what makes me feel like I 'm home. It reminded me of what home really felt like. It was warm and cozy, just like my old house in the forest. I love it so much! Once again thank you!"
"Well, I'm glad you like it. GP made all of your furniture. He did a really good job I assure," Martha said.
"Yes he did! I love my bed, but I really must get home. I have to clean up because it s a little messy from breakfast."
"I will see you later Hammy!" said Martha.
" Bye," replied Hammy.
After Hammy said goodbye to Martha, he went home and cleaned up and then went to bed. He loves his new house very much!
Hammy's Journal
July 17th
Dear Journal,
I just arrived on the riverbank. I met so many friends. I met Martha Mouse, Turtle the turtle, GP the guines pig, Wise Old Frog the frog and squirrel. I am so happy that I found Martha because I could have been really lost if I did not find her chimney. They say GP is the smartest on the whole riverbank. Also, Wise Old Frog, they say he is very wise. Maybe that is why his name is Wise Old Frog. All my friends built me a special house to live in. They are amazing friends. I love the riverbank. I really and truly enjoy it here!
Sincerely,
Hammy the Hamster

MOVIE TIME! :-)
The movie that I saw that has made a big impact on my life is High School Musical 1. This movie was almost like my freshman year with trying new things. The characters that I liked the most were Troy, Gabriella, Sharpay, Kelsi, Ryan, Chad, Zeke, and Taylor. I like all these characters because they all have a variety of different personalities. I like them all because of the way they deal with situations. They always say "We're all in This Together." What I like about the plot is that they tell the events of the story in order. They dont go out of order. It tells a story. This movie made me laugh and cry at the same time. There was the sad moments when on New Years Eve, all of a sudden Gabriella was gone, and Troy didnt know where she was. The time I laughed was when everyone wanted to be something totally different from what they are, and Sharpay started to get mad. It did remind me of events in my life where I have had friends taht wanted to try soemthing new, and then another person was like ew to them for trying something new. I saw this movie a bijillion times. What really caused me to see it again is Zac Efron playing Troy Bolton because he is so hot. Also all the singing, acting and dancing in it too. The first time I saw it I was at my house with my sister, brother and parents. My sister enjoyed the movie as much as I did because she also thinks that Zac Efron is hot. My mom thought that the movie was cute. I would recomend this movie to a friend, only if they didnt think it was babyish. I know it sounds that way, but I am into acting, dancing, and singing, and this movie has it all. I would recomend it to a stranger, why not? This is one of the best movies that I have ever seen.

Chapter 4: Hammy Meets GP the Guinea Pig
Martha and Hammy kept riding upstream in the little boat. Then they came to GP's old mill. Inside, GP was having a little leaking problem. His old wheel had stopped turning. Martha and Hammy knocked on the door, and GP came and answered it and told them to please come in.
"What happened GP?" said Martha.
"My house is leaking" replied GP.
Then Hammy went outside wondering what that big turning thing was on the side of GP's house. It was his water wheel. Hammy was covered in ashes and soot from head to tail. When he saw the wheel, he decided to climb to the top of the wheel because he saw why the water wheel was not turning. There was a whole bunch of sticks and twigs and stones inside where the water wheel needed to turn. Hammy screamed down to GP, " So that's why the roof has water coming through." Hammy went to the first section and cleared that away. Then he went to the next section and cleared that away. Then he went to the final section and cleared that away.
"How do I get down from here? Hmm. I know. I will use the water wheel." Hammy got down and went back inside to GP. GP thanked Hammy for clearing out his water wheel so that it worked again, and his roof was not getting wet.
Then GP looks at Hammy and says, "Hammy, you're not dirty any more, but you are soaking wet."
GP got Hammy a towel. Then Hammy curled up in it and dozed off. When he woke up, GP said, "Thanks a lot once again!"
Then Hammy and Martha got back in the boat and went upstream back to Martha's house.

Chapter 3: Hammy Meets Wise Old Frog
When Hammy and Martha drove downstream, they came to a frog sitting on a lilly pad thinking. The frog said, "Hello Matha, and who is this?"
"This is Hammy the hamster," Martha said.
"Hello," said Hammy.
"I am Wise Old Frog," replied the frog.
Hammy said, "I am pleased to meet you."
"How did you arrive on the riverbank?" asked Wise Old Frog.
"I was wandering through the woods and saw Martha's chimney which had smoke coming out of it and then I cleared her chimney becuase the squirrels kept putting their acorns in there. Then I ate breakfast at her house and now I am covered in soot and ashes," said Hammy.
"Then, I advise you to take a shower," said Wise Old Frog.
"I would if I knew where to find one," said Hammy.
"If you look hard enough you will find one," said Wise Old Frog.
Hammy thought about that as Martha started up the boat and headed toward G.P., the guinea pig's house.

Chapter 2: Martha and Turtle meet Hammy
He heard a woman's voice screaing "Help! My house is on fire!" So Hammy went inside and there was a lot of smoke inside.
Martha said, " I was going to make a fire in my fireplace, but those stupid squirrels keep putting those acorns in my chimney."
Hammy said in reply, "I could help you. I could use that broom and I'll put it up the chimney and get all the acorns out." So Hammy did that and got them all out. Martha said thank you to Hammy.
"Who are you?" Hammy said.
"I'm Martha Mouse," said Martha.
"I am Hammy the Hamster," said Hammy.
Then Martha asked Hammy, "Did you just arrive on the riverbank?"
"Yes I did. And by the way Martha, I would like to know what a riverbank is?" Hammy said in reply.
"Well," Martha said. "It is a hole with water and fishing."
Then Martha asked Hammy if he was hungry, and he said yes. Hammy then told Martha the whole story about coming to the riverbank.
"Hammy, do you want to go out on my boat?" asked Martha.
"Yes," replied Hammy. "I have never been out on a boat before!"
Before they headed out on the boat, a turtle appeared.
"Ahoy Martha!" Turtle said.
"Ahhh!" said Hammy. "The monster from before! The one I told you about!"
"Hammy, that is no monster. That is Turtle. Turtle meet Hammy, and Hammy meet Turtle," said Martha.
Hammy has never seen a turtle before and Turtle has never seen a hamster before. Then they got in the boat and floated downstream.

The Hampster that lived in a Boot on the Riverbank Chapter 1
So I am going to break up this little book I wrote Freshman year and got an A+ on it.
Chapter 1: Meet Hammy
One day, when Hammy Hampster went for a stroll in the woods, he wandered off too far from home. Then Hammy asked a squirrel if he knew where he was.
"Sure I do! Well you are going to the riverbank!" said the lovely squirrel.
Then Hammy wondered and said, "What is a riverbank?" Then when he wanted an answer, the squirrel was already gone! Hammy said, "Oh Mr. Squirrel! Are you there?" But he got no reply. Then Hammy kept wandering.
When Hammy go to the riverbank he said, "My, this water is so warm and clear." Then he decided to go explore more. When he was exploring, he saw something in the water. He got scared and ran away screaming, "Help! There is a monster in the water!" But no one came after him. I guess Hammy gets really scared sometimes. Poor frightened Hammy! He was so frightened, that he kept running. All of a sudden he saw smoke. He thought that there was a fire. When he got closer to it, he began wondering what it was. Hammy thought it was a fire breathing dragon. Hammy was supposed to be a brave little hamster. He went closer and closer and closer until he got so close to it, he found out it was a chimney. Then he saw smoke coming from a little house by a boat! Can you guess who's boat it is?

Journal December 4, 2008
So today is Thursday, December 4, 2008. I am so excited that Christmas is only 21 days away! That is only 3 weeks. Christmas is my most favorite time of the year. Most people like Christmas just for the presents, but not me. I love Christmas because I get to spend time with my family. That is the only time I get to spend a lot of time with my mom. During the year, my parents both work two jobs, and I hardly get to see them, except for tuesday nights, saturday and sunday. My dad works everyday but saturday and sometimes friday. My mom has off from her second job Tuesday and Thursday. But I dance Wednesday, Thursday, teach Friday, dance saturday morning and teach saturday morning. Christmas Break is going to be fun. I am going to spend time with my family, play board games, and probably hang out with friends too. Play Auditions are coming up! I can't wait. Once on this Island is going to be so much fun! I am upset that t.v. doesnt have any good Christmas shows on this week. They have so many shows not related to Christmas. They need to put more shows on that actually have to do for Christmas. Exactly a week from tomorrow is the workshop for Once on This Island. I really cannot wait. It is going to be a lot of fun. I love acting, singing and dancing. I might not be the best at singing, but I can say that I do not stink. Well, You've heard from me. That's all I have to say for today. BYE! Oh wait, I forgot about my countdown clock. Here it is:
83 days until my 17th birthday
129 days until I get my license
116 days until school ends (not counting weekends
40 days until Dance for a Cause
21 days until Christmas
47 days until Obama takes over being President
