How would you handle being the only girl living with 7 boys? In the book Megan Meade’s Guide to the McGowan boys by Kate Brain, Megan is your average all American teenage girl. She isn’t the type of girl who has to wear make up to feel pretty or favorite colors pink or is on the varsity cheerleading team. As a matter of fact she is the complete opposite. She hates having makeup on her face she absolutely hates the color pink and she loves soccer. She is a very quite girl most of the time, who doesn’t really speak her mind. She was always polite to everyone. Until she moves in with the McGowan’s, that’s a chaotic household of 7 boys. In the end they change Megan in a way that was unbelievable. You never saw it coming.
Megan is a well educated girl. She gets good grades in school yada yada so on so forth. Then comes the drama at home. As you no she lives with 7 boys, living with 7 boys is really hard for Megan because she is somewhat a quite girl. And all the boys want is for her to leave there house. They try to make her feel bad say mean things play dumb little immature pranks on her but Megan tries to ignore it. It was obvious that the boys were starting to get under her skin. All she wanted was a chance to warm up to the guys a little get to know them a little more and try not to do anything stupid to make them hate her more.
Since she was staying with the McGowan’s during the end f the summer she would have to go to school with the boys for the year. The boys ignored her in school and didn’t want to even be seen with her. So eventually she had to make her own friends. There where try outs for soccer that day and that’s where she found some of her friends. Aimee ended up being her best friend. Not only did she find enemies on the soccer team or enemy. Her name was Hailey. Hailey was actually Aimee’s older sister but you could tell that Aimee wasn’t a fan of her either. Hailey would be described best as the exact opposite of Megan. There are plenty of other words that may describe her but this is the most appropriate. Hailey was always really rude to Megan. But Megan wouldn’t say or do anything about it because she never really stood up for herself. That’s why Hailey found her as an easy target.
The next couple of months there was a ton of drama and rumors going around at school and at home. Megan was trying to make everything better and try to talk to everyone and make sure they didn’t hate her. Aimee was the only one that understood and believed Megan. Megan was getting so frustrated. She couldn’t take it. No one believed her. Soon she found out Hailey was the master mind of this big charade. She lied to everyone and made them hate her. Megan secretly new that it was Hailey well she thought. So before she for sure found out she told Hailey of she said everything that was on her mind she was able to tell Hailey how she really felt about her and how she was not a good person. She also told the boys that she was sick of being treated like an immigrant in their territory and that she equally shares this house has a family with them at that all these little fights between brothers were ridiculous and they needed to stop. Now.
After that all was good Hailey was being nice to Megan and actually sat by her at lunch, the only reason was that her friends wouldn’t let her sit by them. At home they boys stopped fighting and everything was all better.
Haha NOT! Megan was hanging out with one of the brothers Fin for I while because he was pretty much the only person in the house who actually understood her. And then he kissed her. Then Regina his mom walked and she was ferreted. She started yelling at Megan but Finn came in and saved her and he said it was his fault because he kissed her. Megan thought this was a very noble thing for him to do. All though she was not grounded in was. And yet again the boys turned on her.
Now Megan was done she didn’t want to be here anymore. So she was planning on leaving to go live with her parents in Vietnam . She was torn, she wanted to stay but she couldn’t. She was just going to leave and be strong about it but she wasn’t strong about this she was holding down her actual feelings. So she left before she didn’t have to think about it anymore.
Eventually Doug one of the boys that didn’t really like her that much came to the airport and tried to get her to stay. She wanted to stay strong and not go back with him but he persuades her.
Once they got back home everyone was making her feel like she belonged, a sister. She was home. Everything was better and trust and honesty were in the air.
By the end of the book Megan was now a well spoken girl never afraid to tell anyone anything about how she was feeling about the way they acted or what they said. Actually a couple of times she was surprised what came out of her own mouth. I was to.

Pigs
the topic im suppose to be writing about is pigs. Why pigs you ask. I have no clue. i really don't no anything about pigs except that there gross and they roll in mud. Well the big from pigs are gross. I like the pot belly pigs my friend has one her name is Olivia. She's not your typical pig cause shes black not pink. She is kind of cute she live in there house like a dog but she likes to eat stuff shes not suppose to. Like your toes.(: I kind of want a pot belly pig but that will be to much work so I kind of don't. But thas all i really have to say about pigs.
UNICORNS!!!!
"UNICORNS ARE REAL!!!" the reporter shouted. "They're really real" into the mic labeled 5news. The camera rolling while she explains the realize of the fictional creature known only as the Unicorn. Betty has been researching these magnificent creators for quit sometime now. She had found that they live in Australia and the aren't fictional they really exist. They travel from place to place using portals also known as rainbows. There best friends with the lepercons that are also real, so they are able to use these portals but they have to pay a fee of one gold coin for each time they travel. That’s where the pot of gold comes in. So now Betty stands in front of the camera trying to tell her story but the local people think it’s a little silly that a grown woman is trying to tell the town that Unicorns are real so no one listened when she tried to tell them if they don’t believe there never going to get to see them. So the city people never got to see the beautiful animals. they should of believed.

My Favorite Candy Is...
My favorite candy is… SKITTLES. I don’t exactly now why there my favorite but they are. I can eat them all day. There so chewy and fruity. I like to separate them into groups by color and eat them according to the color and the amount in the group, I know it's a little odd but its something fun to do.
Even though Skittles are my favorite candy Twizzlers take second place on my list. I love to eat Twizzlers when I go to the movies. Or if I'm going to be in the car for a while I like to snack on Twizzlers. I mostly like the strawberry over the cherry though.
As you can tell by my two top favorite candy's I really don’t like chocolate that much. I do like Twix, Crunch, and Kit Kats. Oh also I really like those new pretzel M&Ms. As you can tell I like more of the chewy candy. Even though shouldn’t have chewy sweets with my braces. Oh well >:)
