POST 3 - SANIA

Like every reader expects, the ball was not just an empty useless one....there was something strange about it...the sound that came from it…it pierced through one’s ear….Ethan, an adventurous sort of a person, said, “why don’t we break it open?” “NO” every one screamed. Abby, the youngest among them was the most scared. “What if it explodes? What if some strange creature comes out of it?” she asked with a worried look. “Man!!! You are such a baby” teased Ray. “Come, let’s try opening it. There should be some way to open it!” he said. Yes. There was a way to open it…..but they didn’t know how to…Abby suggested they roll it on the ground again. They did it….

POST 2 - ROCHELLE

On the ball there were some weird looking symbols which resembled ancient hieroglyphic signs. Ethan who had picked up the ball was surprised at how heavy it seemed to be. He gave the ball a slight tap and much to the surprise of the four, the ball was hollow inside. Ethan looked at the others in amazement and gave the ball to Ray so that he himself could see how heavy the ball was. Ray thought that the ball was light a put out one hand for the ball. Ethan smiled to himself as he gave it to Ray. As expected, Ray dropped the ball due to its weight. He turned to glare at Ethan but he was distracted by a noise from the ball. Since they had assumed it was hollow, they thought that it was empty as well.

RULES AND REGULATIONS

Welcome to the freaking IX-B blog of year 2008-2009.....this blog is only meant for the IX-B girls of our own English high school, Abu Dhabi.

For you all to know, you might remember the things i told u in class right? Remember what to do. Write a story. Yes! We are going to write a story through this blog. I will give a starting and then, you have to continue. About 50 words would be enough. I don’t want you to finish the story fast. So slowly elaborate and write. Make it easy for me to understand while writing it. Compiling this story into a book will be decided later. If it will be compiled, we will name the author “X-B” or what ever you want to name it.

The rules in writing are:

1. no short forms of words.

2. Use proper language.

3. Use full words. Don’t write 'noe' for 'know'.

4. Write something with sense.

5. Submit a post at least once in a week. It is necessary. Or else this will not go further.

6. Don’t tell ANYONE ELSE about this blog. No one other than the girls of IX-B should know. Make sure of that. Tell your parents and siblings if you want. But don't give them the address to this site.

7. Make sure what you write is funny and good.

8. You have to click 'NEW POST' to submit a post.

9. Don’t tell reena mam either! Let this be a surprise for her if ever this books gets done.

10. Please don't laugh at me for bringing out this idea to make a book.

11. This story should be completed by the end of IXth grade. The compiling work will be done in 10th grade.

The reason I thought of this idea is because we have a lot of good writers in our class and people like Nahida and Divya have good imagination even though they don't write.

Wishing you all success and please pray that this turns out to happen well!
