My name is Jelly. And everybody thinks I’m delicious so they started calling me the Delicious Jelly girl. And I love the color purple because it’s the color of jelly. And I have just one enemy and I can’t stand this person. Can anybody guess who it is. Anybody. And I have a lot of friends like peanut butter and ketchup, and mustard.

Chicken : Once I stuck a piece of chicken up my nose. I couldn’t breathe. The doctor had to pull it out. They had a big tool. They were going to use but lucky I didn’t need it. Because I sneezed and that made it go flying in the air. And my Mom caught it.
Tent: When I was a baby in my cradle I had a tent. In that tent I slept and had a sleep over with my sister. She filled up the bed space. She made me get mad. When I cried she told me to be quiet.
Man: I am man. I eat.

I remember I went to six flags, October 7, 2005 to Six Flag Great America and people dressed up like pirates but with no face but like it’s falling and then there was some aliens and sadder clown but like joker clowns and mean ones too and no one finds me and my friends were crying. Because they will touch you, scare you, run after you if you go on a ride alone they go with you and they will cut the line and people screaming, crying, running. And even people will run to a ride and they take a picture with you and then there were isrbes and it was because it was Halloween you are supposed scary you and that the fun part. The End.
