Ludwig II

Hello ladies and gentlemen, do you like building a castle with blocks? Even if you do, you would not like it more than Ludwig. He was almost mad about it.

Ludwig II
 Hello my name is Mary Lee. I would like to talk about his life. His actual full name was Ludwig otto Frierich Wilhelm. He was born on 24 August 1845, at Nymphenbury palacy. He was catholic and liked his turtle very much.

He had his parents and his brother. His father's name was Maximillion II of Bavaria. His brother's name was Otto, and Ludwig hated his brother so much. Also his father treated him harshly by never letting him eat full. His father just did not want his con to be fat.

When he was young, he thought he owned the whole Bavaria. So he stole a purse from someone, and siad, "I'll be the king of Bavaria. Everything here belongs to me." Also he idd not like his brother, so one day, his brother mad a big snowball. Ludwig was jealous at him, so he stole it. When teacher told him he should not, he told his teacher the same thing.

Neuschwanstein castle
Even though most part of his childhood was just like others, one thing had changed his whold life. On a Christmas, he got building blocks for his present, so he played with it, made castles and all the things. This led him to build the most beautiful castle in Bavaria.

His father died when he was 18, after being severly sick for only 3 days. When Ludwig became adults, he married with a princess Marie of prussiaz. Then he made a castle called Neuschwanstein, which looks just like the ones that you see in fairy tales. He checked by watchingg the work through a telescope from a hill across the valley. Then he ran out of his ouwn money, so he decided to rob a bank in Bavaria. Even though robbing a bank is a bad thing, I think it is better than taking people's taxes secretly.

The castle was so huge and hard to build, Ludwig couldn't see it being done. Because what he did was so crazy, a docter checked if he was insane, and doctor said he was. After 3 days, Ludwig was found dead in a lake with his doctor. This is only thing that we know about his death, and his death is still mystery.

The castle Ludwig made, it is still counted as the one of the most beautiful castle. The castle was the model of disneyland. Each year, there are one million thirty thousand visitors.

I think Ludwig 2 was not crrazy at all, but just little odd. Also If outher people have treated him more gently, they would have saved him form his terrible end. I feel bad for him, because I think he died because of the stress he got from the country.

I hope you got some good informations from my essay, and thank you for you attention!!

It was a dark night without any light...

It was a dark night without any light in the park and I was listening to music by myself. Suddenly, a man came and sat by me. We talked about the park, and i was explaining about it to him. Though, suddenly he tried to kidnap me, so I ran.  I kept running until I couldn't see any light. About 10-20 minutes later, I reached a door. The door was shinning and I was curious about the door. So I opened it and on the other side of the door, there was a snack world! There were cookie houses, chocolate lake, jelly bean boats and candy forests. there were so many things that was very interesting. I wanted to taste them, but I thought of Charlie and the chocolate factory story and Hantsel and Gretsel. Then I relaxed I was chased by the man I stopped hesitating about if I should taste the snack though it was very tempting. Oh my gosh! Someone pushed me into the chocolate lake! Help me!.... What? I can breath now, and I think I kind of see a hole. I saw a subway inside the hole. It was subway station! I swam to the station. Luckily, there was a subway, so I rode it. But I didn't know where it was going, so I ran to the front of the door and opened the room which controls the subway. There was a man who was driving the subway so I asked him about where it is going. He said, "We're going to the chocolate factory." So I asked him, "Isn't this the chocolate factory?" But he said, "What's wrong with you? It looks like you have lived here for a long time? We are just going to a town named chocolate factory. Isn't real chocolate factory is only for the fairy tales? This right here is Saskatoon, Canada." I was so surprised, because my house is in Saskatoon, and I wanted to go to home, but now, I am on this weird person's subway, and going to Chocolate factory? No! I have to go back! I asked him," Do you know how to go back to Saskatoon? But he said," Where are you wanting to go?" I answered, "I want to go to my house". Suddenly, the subway turned into an airplane and flew to somewhere. I asked him," Where are we going?" and he said,"Your home". I was really happy. The airplane flew as fast as it could, and it arrived in front of my house. Before I could say thanks to him, he flew away. I was wondering why he was so nice to my, and went into my house. There was my mother tied up at the middle of my house, and 3men wearing red cloths. Usually, if you look at movies, mothers says "NO!" to children to save them from danger, but for me, my mother said,"Come on! Come and help me!, I was scared, so I went to cut the rope. The men came to catch me as well while my mom was so happy that I got caught in too. A man grabbed my arm and said,"Why are you talking in sleep?" I looked up. I was my mother holding me. "Why are you sweating so much? You must have had bad dream last night."
