A Bad Dream

Yikes! I shrank to the size smaller than an ant, I am going to tell you my senses, my dangers, and how I returned to my normal size. First off, my senses were very strong. Since I was small, the air would just go to me. My dad had a machine in our basement. He had pressed the wrong button when he was in the basement. This was so scary I could not even believe it. If I stayed like an ant I could not eat or drink. That is why I am going to tell you about when this happened.

I am going to tell you about what things smelled, sounded, felt, and looked. One thing is, things smelled strong. It is so bad because when things smell strong, for one it is not good to fall in sour milk. Every thing sounded very loud. When things are suppose to be soft, the BOOMED! Last things looked huge. Have you ever seen an elephant? Well things were bigger than elephants. Well using your senses when you are shrunk is not very good thing to do.

When I was shrunk there were lots of dangers and I am going to tell you what they are. First, there where giant ants that chased me around the house. It was hard to run from them with my short legs. Another example is, there was a huge cat that chased me. It chased me from the living to the kitchen, that is a long run for me. One other way is, that there is a little boy that comes over and he just got a toy car for his birthday. The boy had to bring it over the day I got shrunk, it chased me a long way. There where a lot of dangers when I was a size smaller than an ant.

It was a crazy experience returning to my normal size. First of all, my dad had the machine in our basement. The machine is how I got that small. Next, my dad went crazy about the buttons, he did not want me to be that small when my mom got home. He would not stop pressing the buttons! All of a sudden, Ka boom! I was back to normal size again. It was a good thing that my dad kept pressing buttons. It was very good that I turned to the right size because my dad would have got in big trouble by my mom.

In conclusion, I woke up, it was a dream. I could not believe it, it was a dream the whole time. Before I thought it would be fun to be small, but now that I had that dream, I don’t ever want to even have a dream again. I was so scared the whole time, I was going to not be able to eat or drink. If I was even like that for one more day, I would have starved. Finally, that cat had got me, so I was even more scared. The cat scared me very bad. That was the weirdest dream I had ever had.
