One night I had a dream that I was wearing leggings, with big hair, and a loose sweatshirt. When I would up i realized it was not just a dream, I was living in the 80's! I was scared at first, but began embracing the chance and after a few hours I had adjusted. The music that was popular at that time was so fun to dance to. Then a Genny came one day and said you can either stay in the 80's or go back to 2011 which ever one you choose i will grant you that one wish. I chose to stay in the 80's!
ReplyDeleteSo the other day I was walking down the street when I suddenly got sucked into this vacuum in the middle of the sidewalk. I thought that was great. Most people just break their high heels on vents in sidewalks or something similarly mundane. Anyway, I was floating around and starting and vertigo was starting to kick in, so I sort of tumbled over to the first thing that looked like an exit. I whooshed through it and ended up in this fantastic treehouse in the rainforest canopy. I was at least 100 ft. up. The floor was made of tightly woven vines and I could see stockpiles of the inhabitants' food in baskets made of the same vines. I didn't recognize any of the food. I heard a strange clicking noise. I looked around and saw what appeared to be a very primitve human-- he was only 4 feet tall and had big, apelike arms and facial features. Slowly, others, probably his family, came out from behind the leaves of surrounding trees. After some time, they accepted me into their clan and I lived the rest of my life in peace and simplicity among the treetops.
ReplyDeleteI was walking down the street one day when all of a sudden I feel into a giant hole. When I woke up after that horrible fall I was seeing tye-dye. As I looked around I saw everybody with peace signs and stars all over. It was then that I realized that I fell back into the 70's. It was very different than what I was used to and I wanted to leave! It was scary being there, and all that tye-dye gave me a headache. Clearly, I was shooken up because of the scary fall and waking up surrounded by weirdly dressed people. I chose to get out of there as soon as I could!
ReplyDeleteSome would tell me it was just a dream, but I know it was something much more real. Last night I was transported back to the time of the dinosaurs. I found myself laying in the nest of a brontosaurus. One of its eggs were beginning to hatch as soon as I gained consciousness, and the baby brontosaurus stuck its head out of the broken shell and looked at me. He was already about my size, which was pretty awesome, so I decided to become his friend. Instead, he thought that I was his mother, due to the fact that I was the first thing he saw in life. I tried to leave the nest and he followed me. I decided it'd be pretty cool to have a brontosaurus as a son though, so I was over it. Then I took him home.
ReplyDeleteI was sleeping in my bed one night and woke up to get a drink of water. I hopped out of bed but my floor was gone and I was suddenly just falling. I fell for a long time and after a while it stated getting old and I got super annoyed. When I finally reached the bottom of the fall, I was on this big circle like bed with silk sheets and old time doratings around the room. On the bed side table, there sat an old time phone. It was that kind of phone where you held the piece up to your ear and talked into the other part. When I walked to the other side of the room to look in the mirror, I had this beautiful curled hair and with pearls and abnoxious lipstick. My nails were painted ravish red and I had on a tight black dress. I found a big black hat laying on the chair so I put it on. I was having so much with my new surrounds when I figured out I was back in the 50s. I walked out of the huge house I was in to find that every lady was wearing a dress and there were old time cars with no seat belts. I enjoyed a whole day in the 50s and wanted to stay longer. I noticed this little fairy flying around my head at one point and it started talking to me. She told me if I wished to stay I could, and if I wished to go home, I could do that also. I told her I would like to stay for a while longer and then go home after I'm done having fun.
ReplyDeleteOne day I opened my closet and it turned into a time portal. I was curious so I jumped through. I landed in prehistoric times. I jumped out of the way to avoid getting crushed by the foot of a giant dinosaur. I saw lots of little dinosaurs running around. Some of the smaller ones were curious about me and came up to say hi. They let me pet their small scaley heads. I looked up and saw pterodacktyls flying around. There wasnt anybody around and I missed seeing people. I went back through the time portal and decided I probably should clean my closet.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was walking home, a big hole appeared in the parking lot right below me. I fell into it for like 5 minutes. When I stopped, I landed on a big trampoline in the grand canyon in the middls of a wild wild west gunfight. I bounced on the trampoline for a coulpe minutes because I came from so high, and got to see the whole gunfight happen from above. Then the trampoline suddenly suddenly got super bouncy and I flew back up to current time. I wanted to go back and cheer on the winner, but the hole was gone.
ReplyDeleteI was driving into school one morning, when all of a sudden and giant Taradactle dinosaur swooped down and picked up my car. We swore into the sky and just about when we were going to go into space, we turned around and swore back to earth. We landed in the Jurassic period. There were all types of dinosaurs everywhere! Fortunately, I took a class at CVTC for Speaking to Dinosaurs, so I could talk to the dinosaurs. They were all very nice and helped me travel around Pangaea. After walking around and getting to know the dinosaurs, I went to bed on a rock. I woke up the next morning like normally, and has I get up and walk into the kitchen, my mother hugs me and tells me that they though I was missing and was never going to come home. I explained to her were I went and she completely believed me. She made me French toast and I went to school has a normal school day and told my story to everyone.
ReplyDeleteWe were talking in Mr. Grambo's class about history, of course. I'm not a big fan of the subject so I find my forehead glued to my desk. I barely got sleep last night. The next thing I know I am being shaken. I awaken and look around the classroom. Something is wrong though. The room is set up different. The posters are strange. All the kids in the class room are not my school mates and they are dressed rather funky in super bright odd colors. The teacher in the front is smoking a cigarette, right here, right now, during a lesson! What is happening??? I'm freaking out in my head!
ReplyDelete"What is going on?" I ask the girl who had woke me up.
"Just trying to keep you out of trouble on your first day, you new? Groovy, man.” The girl smiled at me. She had these over sized pants on her with bell bottoms that swallowed her shoes and a shirt where her belly stuck right out.
I shook my head. This isn’t happening. “What time is it?”
“2p.m.”
“What year is it?”
“Uhm, 1974. Are you okay? You don’t even know the year. What have you been taking? Whatever it is, right on man.” The girl just continued to smile at me rather creepy.
“I need to go,” I stuttered, confused. I got up and headed for the door.
“Where you think YOUR going?” The teacher barked at me as smoke poured out of his nose.
I’ll admit this, I started to panic, bad. I ran through the hallway and out the door. I couldn’t believe this was happening! I busted out onto the street and police cars were chasing me! They knew I didn’t belong in this time period!! A loud annoying ring sang into my ears!
I jerked up and looked around again. I was in Mr. Grambo’s room with a bit of drool on the desk. I was glad to be back.
I was sitting on my couch watching Favre 4 Ever when all of the sudden I got transported to 1995 during the packers season. I somehow had season tickets to every Packer game for the next three years so I could see Brett Favre be the only player ever to win three MVP awards in a row. I was at every game in those three seasons and after the last game was done I was transported back to the present. It was the best three years ever!!
ReplyDeleteI was sitting on my couch, slowly drifting to sleep. All of a sudden I was transported to a different time. I was riding a horse through the open plains with the Native Americans. We were hunting the great buffalo. It was before Columbus came and started to take over their land. I spent the whole day and evening with the Indians. I was taught about their spiritual beliefs and got to attend a great fire. Then they told me it was time for me to go back where I came from. I walked into the woods and was transported back to my couch.
ReplyDeleteOne day in the state of good old Wisconsin, myself, Alicia, and two guys (i'll keep the names to myself) were sitting in a hot tub... We were having a bunch of fun when all of a sudden we were transported into a different era. However, we weren't aware of it at first... so we just carried on like any other normal hot tub sitting. Then when we got out, we realized that we were in the 70's. We met a few people and made a few friends. Then we went back to the tub and hopped in. Thankfully, we went back to our normal time. I didn't care for that time anyways.
ReplyDeleteOne night I was walking through the woods and had completely lost my way. I wandered hopelessly all night. When morning came, I was able to find my bearings again and walked home. Although, when I got to "home", the house wasn't there! Neither was the barn, or any of our animals! Some parts of the land was a corn field, and the rest of it was pasture. I thought that I really lost my way until I came across a farm house. I knocked on the door and the people were kind enough to let me in. Except the people were not dressed in modern clothes and the interior of the house was in a 1940's type setting. The family let me stay for dinner and they asked were I was from. I told them my situation and they looked at me like I was a madman. They told me the year was 1943! So the next morning I was planning on heading out on the hope of finding my way back, but an old army jeep pulled up to the farm house. A recruiter in uniform walked in the room and began asking me questions. He asked me my age, if I was going to school, if I needed glasses, if me feet were good, and if I could shoot a gun. After that he told me to go with him. I was being drafted! At least to my fortune, I mentioned having flight experience, and this helped the outcome of my situation. Instead of having to enlist in the infantry, I was able to enlist in the army air corps. I thought that I was going to be sent to Europe immediately, and then they sent me to the Pacific.I had a few days to be trained in a P-40 and the next thing I knew I was being sent up on my first mission for real combat against the Japanese. I lived through the war, and then came the paranoia of the the atomic bomb in the fifties. I never could find my way back home!
ReplyDeleteOne day I was driving to the grocery store, but when I got out of my car I fell down a hole. This hole took me back to the time of the dinosaurs. They were like fifty million times the size of me. I felt like an ant compared to an airplane. As I carefully walked around to get a better look, I ran into a nest of eggs. As I turned around because I thought I heard something coming, the mom dinosaur was heading towards the nest. She was coming to check on her babies. Right when she got there one of the huge eggs started to crack. I ran the other direction because I was scared to death. After the one baby hatched, it was not that much bigger than I was. I didn't feel so small anymore. The baby dinosaur became attached to me and decided that I was like its sister for the time being, while she is still little. I really liked the dinosaur that I decided i would stay and live with the little baby until she was to big to even see me anymore. After all that, I thought I was never going to make it home. I searched and searched when I finally came across a little door hidden behind some leaves. I opened the door and followed the tunnel which led me back to my car.
ReplyDeleteMrs. M! I just wrote a huge story! It was about hunting the world record buck in 1933 and it got completely deleted!!!! I'm so angry right now! I will tell you the whole story tomorrow if you want but Im too tired to type all that again! Goodnight mrs m!
ReplyDeleteI was getting ready for school on typical Monday morning. As I turned on the sink, this big funnel of water started spinning upward. It then sucked me in and I thought it was a dream. When I woke up I knew I wasn't dreaming. These large cavemen were standing over me poking my forehead muttering phrases I couldn't comprehend. As you can imagine I was so lost on what was happening. As I sat up and I looked around I noticed I was no longer in 2011...but in the stone age! I still kept telling myself it was dream because of how unrealistic it was. I wondered around the fields and seen all these half naked men that looked like they have never heard of a bath chasing buffalo. I was freaked out and decided to go back where I woke up and try going back to sleep. Thankfully I managed to go back to sleep and when I woke up again I was standing back in front of the mirror holding onto my toothbrush with my hand on the sink getting ready to turn the faucet on. What a weird experience, but I can definitely say I was happy to be back in my time period. As little as I seen from the Stone Age, it was enough to freak me out.
