The smell of sweat,
The feel of the rubber,
The sound of your shoes
squeaking on the court.
The taste of the stuffy
air in the gym.
The intensity of the game
makes your mind focus
on what you will do next.
Will you make the winning shot?
Will you lose your teams lead?
When your team is ahead
the clock is a friend.
When your team is behind
the clock is a fiend
The intensity,
The sweat,
The focus,
The game,
BASKETBALL!

German soldiers have now invaded Denmark and have begun taking and relocating Jewish people. I am a writer from Sweden and we have had about 7,000 Jewish people enter our country in just a few weeks. We have many men and women helping these people and making sure that they are safe and have food and shelter. Swedish people are aware of the cause and are doing everything they can do to help, by taking these people in in and caring for them. Danish people have made secret entrances inside their boats so they can safely transport the Jews over the Sweden border. Fisherman put dead fish on the bottom of their boats, and have drugged hanker chiefs to keep soldiers and their dogs from finding the Jews. Their hanker chiefs would make the dogs lose their sent and the fish would discust the soldiers. The hanker chiefs work by using a blend a rabbits blood and cocaine. The rabbits blood would lure the dogs to the boat and the cocaine would make them lose their scent and they would find nothing in the boats. The Resistance is a group of young men and women across Europe who are rescuing, sheltering, and hiding the Jews. This group has saved thousands of Jews by protecting them and transporting them them to a free country. Most of the Danish people have helped a Jew, by doing that they are risking their own lives to save others. Without the helped many, many more Jews would have been killed or tortured in a concentration camp.
The best part about my Christmas was spending time with my family. On Christmas day we opened presents at 7:00. My puppy Murphy went first. He got a snuggie for dogs and two chew toys. After we put his snuggie on him we all opened our presents. I got a new Wii game, a video camera, two shirts, a jacket, and some little things. My mom got an iPhone and my dad got a pair of crocs. That day my family and I played Wii games, watched movies and had a good time with each other.
