I didn't remember if I had bought and I checked in a box in the living room, there were many papers as white as snow but not a single battery. Although I tried to stay calm, I got desperate and took the car to the first open store, I think It was my first time driving as fast as a leopard, I finally saw a mini-market in the middle of the night and was able to get my big prize, my batteries.]]> 2022-04-22 21:44:09 UTC https://padlet.com/nick82071/64k8cliopfrz/wish/2154157827 Astrid Carolina Hernández astridchernandezr https://padlet.com/nick82071/64k8cliopfrz/wish/2154177285 While Jack was reading the newspaper, he felt nostalgic like a rainy day, he had read an article about the first rocket with people on it that it had arrived at Mars.

I dreamed that I was on vacation with my family, we were on a very nice double-decker sailboat, the sea was so calm, the sky was clear and the clouds were like cotton. Who was in charge of the service was Robotina, She was preparing the snacks and drinks for us, she did everything quickly, she was as agile as a hummingbird. I had been eating too much, so much that I felt like going to the bathroom urgently, so I went downstairs faster, when I got to the bathroom I got a horrible surprise, the bathroom was small and as dark as a cave, it was actually scary and It's like I was in another place, but I didn't have much time, so I decided to go in, I used my cell phone for lighting, and suddenly I was in the bathroom of my house. At that moment my daughter was entering the room and I woke up.

The mouse lived very sad due to the climate of the city, his fur was always dirty, and he could not show his beautiful color. To solve this situation, he had bought an umbrella as small as him, that would allow him to cover himself from the rain, however, he did not count on the fact that the umbrella would not allow him to cover himself from the dirty water that was splashed on him by passing cars. Without finding a solution to his problems, he decided to search on internet for other cities where he could live, so he borrowed the computer from a mouse friend (quite particular because he wore glasses as big as a coin) and started his search on Google, on this wise, he found that some companies were offering wonderful houses in the beach for mice. Sudenly, without hesitation, the mouse packed his bags and traveled to the beach where he was able to fulfill one of his dreams, traveling by sailboat.]]> 2022-04-22 23:49:36 UTC https://padlet.com/nick82071/64k8cliopfrz/wish/2154224889 Maria Alejandra https://padlet.com/nick82071/64k8cliopfrz/wish/2154241068 The Captain Jacke received a letter at night, when he turned on the light to read it, the light bulb burned out, he had been practicing guitar all day, he  forgot to buy one, so he had to use a candle, the letter said that he should make a trip on his boat, he got so upset that his face turned as red as blood, because he was enjoying his vacation and was as happy as worm, However Jacke kept calm and went out to eat with his friend, he was as hungry as a bear that ate a giant pizza. ]]> 2022-04-23 00:23:44 UTC https://padlet.com/nick82071/64k8cliopfrz/wish/2154241068 Carol Cortés Story https://padlet.com/nick82071/64k8cliopfrz/wish/2154252085
Yesterday, I was reading a magazine while driving my car. I know it is very dangerous but it was an important article I had to read for a contest at work. Unfortunately, I didn't brake in time and collided with a motorcycle that was right in front of me, it was a slight hit and the motorcyclist didn't suffer any injuries but the scare was very big. However, it was worth it because I won first place and for the next issue of the company newspaper they will publish the winner and a picture of me will appear in it. On the other hand, my car broke down and I will need more than one tool to fix it.]]> 2022-04-23 00:49:52 UTC https://padlet.com/nick82071/64k8cliopfrz/wish/2154252085 Victor Parra'S Story victorparra303 https://padlet.com/nick82071/64k8cliopfrz/wish/2198179618 Once upon a time a creative ghost. This ghost was as creative as a raven. So, he decided to build a robot. As he was building his robot, he found himself in a difficult situation: Would this robot have brain as he had when he was inside a human body? Yes! of course. His robot would have one. However, how can a ghost build a brain? Even worst, how is a brain designed and what kind of stuff is it made of?  When he used to be a human, he had a body and the body itself had a pre-made brain inside it. In this case he would design one. He looked for one brain model on google, on YouTube, and, Eureka! he finally found a tutorial about how to build a baby brain. He was building it and when he had finished, he noticed that this brain was a little baby's brain. He turned on his robot and his robot started peeing all over the place. Damn! a baby pees without control! However, since the ghost was as stubborn as a mule, he did not give up and tried again. After some attempts, he barely got to build a brain that helped the robot to crawl. So, he simply decided to wear the robot with underpants and place inside them a diaper for his uncontrolled peeing impulses. The robot was writing a letter to his old friends for telling them about his achievement when a little mouse suddenly entered the room. The ghost was having a panic attack! He would scare people who lived in that old house. However he was scared of mice and started to cry. However, as the ghost was as smart as a fox, he had a beautiful idea: he was planning to catch a snake, take its brain off its head and place it inside the new robot's head. He did it and his experiment finally worked: every time a mouse was coming near to the robot, it instinctively started to make a sound similar to a snake and the mouse flied away.. Since that day on, the ghost has had a new friend, it has been his best friend no matter that he have had to change his diaper since that very day until now...]]> 2022-05-24 18:49:23 UTC https://padlet.com/nick82071/64k8cliopfrz/wish/2198179618 Carolina's Story https://padlet.com/nick82071/64k8cliopfrz/wish/2199877679 This happened about a year ago, I was leaving my house to go see a baseball championship. My friends invited me to that tournament because they were going to participate, and they wanted me to go with them on that day. As I was arriving at the stadium when I realized that I had forgotten my glasses, and without these I could not see the game because my seat was far from the baseball field. I was sad because I couldn’t watch my friends' game, so I decided to buy a burger. As I was walking to the fast-food place when I found some binoculars. So, I thought with these I could watch the game, even if I didn’t have my glasses. That's how I could see how my friends were winning the tournament, and then celebrate with them afterwards.

It happened in a day when he woke up late. He had been running with his owner for hours; He used to be as fit as a fiddle and his dog too. The dog heard an unknown voice, so he went down the stairs.
He has searching for his food (he was as hungry as a bear) when someagressive hands touched him and took him into a carrier box. He started to bark desperately but nobody heard. He was in a car. It doesn't smell like his owner. His hunger came back and he felt so sad.
Suddenly, the alarm rang and he woke up. It had been just a dream. "Im lucky to be here" he thought. ]]> 2022-05-25 22:11:48 UTC https://padlet.com/nick82071/64k8cliopfrz/wish/2199959351
