Our Family -- By Abigail Zachko

Untitled, originally uploaded by szachko.

Found this story on my phone, wrote by big one at April 11, 2012 with title: Ou Family.  This is very fascinating..

****************
My family is a little cocky in someways. I'm going to tell you a story based on my own but is about a girl named Emily who sees her family in a different way. Then her way becomes the real way. I hope you enjoy my story!

Okay, in my version my family is like a kingdom, my mom is the queen, my dad the king, and and hannah are the two princesses. I'm going to explain each character. My mom is the queen so of course she has the most power. Usually, the king and the queen have equal amount of power but in this case the queen has the most power. I can tell because my dad (a.k.a king Demwire) can't make a choice without my mom. Plus, mom usually gets her way. Once they were in a argument then dad just stopped fighting and gave mom all of the victory.

Next Zoe and I. Me and Zoe are like fire and water. Hannah is a little divaish I would say. But somehow in a good way she sort of like the more girly princess. She likes the dresses and the makeup. I on the other hand HATE makeup and the dresses well they really stink. Me and Hanna fight all the time, too. However, she usually wins.

Oh I almost forgot about Mimi our royal cat. Ya she's pretty old and and grumpy. She's white with black spots. Or is she black with white spots? Never really thought about that. Hmmmmmmmm?

I'm going to tell you how this all became a little realistic.

Struggle....

Tenafly Story, originally uploaded by szachko.

Moving from Hoboken to Tenafly is not an easy transition. We all missed those colorful life style and cherish friends. It was hitting hard on girls as well.

I really admire their courages to put up their best efforts to face this new environment, be good at school and make new friends. It is not easy, and is quite a struggle. But we are family, we are together to get through this.. Cheers! My lovely ones....

How did a place get its name..

Spring 2013, originally uploaded by szachko.

Girls were curious about how Hoboken got its name..

Daddy thought it was named after a hobo named Ken.

Following this logic, girls came to the conclusion how Tenafly got its name -- cause it gets Tons of Flys......

The 1800's (By Abby)

Untitled, originally uploaded by szachko.

" go out side" my mom said as she tried to hush my sister to sleep. I nodded slightly and walked out of the hot little log cabin. I walked toward the apothecary shop. I peered through the window. The bottle that laid just beyond the glass was a purplish color. That meant the flu was going around.

Just then, I could smell a wonderful fragrance in the air. I walked with directions from my nose towards the smell. I found myself walking towards the bakery. I could see just in front of me there was a dark wooden table in front of an old lady. The lady had Snow White hair that rested knotted over her wrinkled face. You could see a dark shadow forming under her eyes. You could tell she was getting tiered. She was using a brass ear trumpet to hear a boy who wanted to buy one of the bread that was Lying on the table. The boy was tall and thin. He had long reddish hair with freckles sprinkled over his cheeks . He was wearing a green shirt that looked rough and scratchy. He appeared to be my age.

I slowly made my way past the table and made long strides towards he bakery door. As I got inside I could feel the smell get stronger. And there, right in front of me was a loaf of bread so perfect it made the world stop and stare. Usually the bread we got was hard and stale. However, this one was P-E-R-F-E-C-T!!!!!! Without thinking I swiftly took the bread and tucked it in my sleeve. I looked to see if anyone saw, and surely enough there standing right behind me was a tall man with he same colored hair as the boy outside but this time he had a big bushy mustache and a flour covered apron.

" what do you think you're doing?" He said with a livid tone. Behind him was the boy peering from behind the mans back mouthing the words.

" run!"

I’m trying hard to go to Mars but I still can’t get there. Sophie says I’ll never make it and she’s pulling out my hair. she is very mean and very lean and also quite grumpy. However my sister Zoë is quite the rabbit because she is very jumpy.

Sincere Advice

Reunion, originally uploaded by szachko.

EK was Abby's 1st grade classmate. He is very nice and gentle. After 1st grade, he moved back to France with his parents. We missed the whole family a lot. The whole family came to visit US in summer and we are lucky enough to have chance to spend time with them.

During the chatting, EK gave me a sincere advice:
"Never put your wife's name o Tattoo. What if you get divorce, then you are stuck...."

I looked at him speechlessly and then smiled back and thanked him for this sincere advice...

How to Train your Viking - by Abigail Zachko

Colonial Williamsburg Day 3, originally uploaded by szachko.

There once was a teacher named Sophie. She teaches young vikings how to be a grown up one. Sophie has brown hair with light brown high lighting, brown eyes, a big viking helmets, fuzzy brown pants and a dark green shirt.

Sophie was a good teacher. She would show her students how to through an ax. She would even tell them how to pick the off the ground. But there was one student that Sophie couldn't handle. Big Tooth.

Big Tooth had one giant buck tooth, a cut off left hand, (it was all wroped up so no one could see it), weird helmet with one horn a lot bigger than the other light green shirt, right leg cut off, (also wraped) brown fuzzy pants and short brown hair.

Big Tooth was horibble at everything.  He couldn't pick up a hammer (made out of only wood), he only ate beans, he only drank mile, he need help with absolutely nothing, well, at least Big Tooth says that.


"What am I going to do with him?"  Sophie said to herself.  She saw some beans and milk sitting on the table and that gave her an idea.

The next morning Sophie put up signs on Big Tooth's saying "Privet classes for Big Tooth at Sat., Sun., Mon., Tu., Thurs. (3:00-3:55)."  Big Tooth saw the poster.  It was Saturday.  Big Tooth got to Sophie's private class at 3:05.  He was only 5 minutes late.  (Who cares)  Sophie said to Big Tooth.  There are beans inside of this door."  Sophie pointed to the door.  "And milk inside the door too.  But..."

Gulp.  Big Tooth had a worried look on his face.

Sophie resumed speaking, "There is a dragon in there, too."

Big Tooth ran out the door with his arms spread out behind him.  "AHHHHHH!!"

"See you tomorrow" Sophie said hopelessly.

On Thursday, Sophie went over the same thing.  This time Big Tooth looked ready.  "are you OK?" Sophie said

"I'm fine.  I just did a little practicing with my daddy."

"Ok" Sophie said opening the door.  A massive dragon came out.  It had read scales, a tail as sharp as a knife and flaming red eyes.  ROAR!! He blew fire everywhere.

Big Tooth dauged every thing the dragon blew.  " I want my beans."  He said as he was getting closer to the door.  Finally, he got to the door.  The door close on him.  Slam!  Sophie went to open the door and put the dragon in another room.  Then she opened the door for Big Tooth.  She found him drinking his milk and a[n] empty plate next to him.

"You did great!"  Sophie said after a moment of silence.

Slurp.

The next day, the private lessons were over and Big Tooth did great at his regular lessons.  Even X-a a very strong girl who was top of the class congratulated him.

As the years went on, Big Tooth got better and better.  In fact, he was the 2nd best wiking in the world.  (The first was Sophie).
