The Golden Shoes(A Short Story)

 There was a poor shoemaker in the outskirts of Mayhem and Crystal city. These cities were constantly fighting. One day he was walking nearby the city and fell into an abandoned mine. He yelled for hours hoping someone would come, but nobody did. He then started to look around. Something shiny was at the corner of his eye it was pure gold. Right there he started picking up as much of gold as he could. He found a way out and started creating a rare golden shoe. 

Word reached out of his fortune and people from both cities came by to see it. The leaders of both cities even came down themselves just to see this shoe. Many people wanted to buy it. People started bidding and bidding all day long. The shoemaker was exhausted and said nobody will get the shoe if the keep fighting. The shoe cannot be worn otherwise it will break.

He then sold it to a rich family who bought it for their little girl. She did not listen to the shoemaker and wore it. It did not break though. 

The family came back and the shoemaker said that was fools gold. All the people laughed for a good joke.

A Little Bit About Me 2020

Hi, my name is Diya Sudhagar. I am currently eleven years old I have four people in my family including me. I have a little sister named Isha, who is in second grade at Welch Elementary. I also have my mom and dad. An area of interest that I have is singing. I came to be interested in it at a young age, maybe around 2 or 3. My parents enrolled me in Hindustani Classical Music when I was around 3-4. I am still learning now and I have performed  many times.  I listen to so many songs, when studying, eating, car rides, movies, restaurants, etc. I feel just that music is a special part of me.   My talents are reading, imagination, organizing, singing, and dancing. I use my talent of organizing to stay neat while doing schoolwork. I use the talent of dancing to dance with my family and friends when we put songs to dance to. My imaginations used when I just want to daydream/imagine things that aren’t true. For instance imagining…. meeting famous people!!! My reading ke...

Family Vacation Time

  I love going on vacation don't you? There are so many exciting places to visit, with things to do for every type of person. There are places for people who want to relax or go on an adventure. Below are some places I have traveled, that I would recommend going to! 1. Maldives We went to Maldives last summer and had an amazing time. I experienced a lot of firsts there. I went scuba diving for the first time in my life. Although it was not a full experience(the instructor teaching us held on to our oxygen tanks, to keep us from swimming away), we still saw so many amazing fish. There were so many different shapes and sizes along with colorful coral. We saw schools of fish, and they swam in between us. They were so close I could almost touch them. On top of seeing the sea animals we saw an abandoned shipwreck. It was a smaller sized ship compared to the ones in movies, but it was so cool! Another first I had there was walking on a white sand beach. These beaches are completely ...
