chapter1 gene


































One day i was walking with my friend Phineas when we were walking we saw "the tremandous, an irate, steely black steeple besides the river"(6). Off course Phineas always had crazy ideas. He wanted to go climb up the tree and jump down into the stream. " He of course saw nothing the slightest bit intimidating about it" (5). I was the more sarcastic one. When we were yopung boys we went to the Devon school. " I went to the Devon School not long ago,and found it looking oddly newer than when i was a student there fifteen years before"(pg.1). When i saw my school that i attented i was very surprised because they had changed the school alot. " I didn't entirely like this glossy new surface,because it made the school look like a musem,and that's exactly what it was to me, and what i did not want it"(pg.1). The best street in town was the Gilman Street. " I walked along Gilman Street, the best street, the best street in town"(pg.2). The Devon School was not fenced in. It was not fenced in because all good schools were not fenced in back then. " Like all old,good schools, Devon did not stand isolated behind walls and gates but emerged naturally from the town which had produced it" (pg.2-3). I really did like the Devon school. Me and my best freiend Finny went there.

Chapter2 Gene




























































































Finny and I are in summer school. One dayour teacher was absent so we had Mr.Patch-Withers as a substitute. Mr Patch-Withers wanted to punish me and Finny because we had missed dinner but,good thing Finny is my friend because he talked his way out of getting us in trouble. So Mr.Patch-Withers left us without giving us any punishments for missing dinner. My bestes friend in the whole world Finny, incase you didn't know dresses in a pink shirt to resemble the celebration of the first allied bombing in Central Europe. I tried to tell Finny not to wear that shirt because it makes him look weird, but he just didn't listen to me. Finny never listens to me he thinks he is all that. He also thinks he can do anything. He is Mr. showoff. That very same day Mr.Patch-Withers invited us for tea. Well he invited the teachers and students so we weren't the only ones there.Finny is always getting away with everything. When we were at Mr. patch-wither's house, his wife noticed that Finny was wearing his school tie as a belt. Finny was going to get in trouble but he didn't. After that we decide to leave the party. As we are walking Finny sugest to jump off a tree. He asked me if i was afraid and i said no i wasn't when i really was. So we decided to jump off,but as soon as i turned around to talk to finny i sort of lost my balance. It was a good thing Finny was with me or who knows what would have happened.
