Patrick's+E-Journal

WORD NERD By. Patrick Steckle E journal chapter1 to 5 Ambrose was minding his own business and having a rest in the sun when three kids Troy, Mike, and Josh, but Ambrose calls them the three stooges in his head, bounced a soccer ball off Ambrose’s head. When Ambrose opened his eyes he saw the there stooges standing over him. They talked the whole time about Ambrose’s peanut allergy. Then Troy told Ambrose to close his eyes which made Ambrose hesitate because the last time he closed his eyes for Troy he found a dead crow in his lap. When he opened his eyes he looked around he couldn’t find anything wrong. When he asked Troy what did you do, the three stooges just smiled then Troy padded him on the back and left. When Ambrose was just thinking that wasn’t too bad, he took a bite out of his sandwich and swallowed it he started to get a funny feeling then he started to swell up even though it has been three years since his last reaction. That is a feeling you never forget and he looked under his sandwich and there it was a half eaten peanut. The last thing he remembered seeing was the three stooges laughing their head off. When they gave Ambrose a shot of Adrenalin, his mom was already there and was freaking out that he had another reaction to peanuts. His mom said to him "What happened?" but Ambrose didn’t want to rat on the three stooges. So he didn’t tell her. He then remembered that he told everything to the nurse that gave him the Adrenalin. After he got out of the hospital his mom scheduled an appointment with the principal. His mother was over protective and lasttime he had a peanut allergy was when he was in daycare His mom was a teacher and they moved around a lot. Everytime he got picked on or teased at school or if the school board didn’t give her a full time employment she would.move to another town so that she would have a chance of full time employment and also Ambrose start over but it was always the same. Ambrose dad fell over dead at work on a construction site and they figured it was a brain aneurism. So when she scheduled the appointment she started to scream at the three stooges "Why would you poison my son, I thought you were my son’s friends Then Troy shouted out "We were never your son’s friends". Ambrose’mom said "Why did you invite him over to play, birthday parties, and to help with homework? The three stooges said we never invited him or anything. We don’t even talk to him. Ambrose’s mom just went quite. She didn’t know what to think. The principal stepped in and said you guys will still be getting detentions and if it happens again you will be suspended. Ambrose and his mom just walked out quietly. They went home and after dinner his mom got out the scramble board and when he saw it he was relieved because they were going to stick to his normal routine. Half through the game Ambrose’s mom asked him if he would like to be skybro schooled. It is almost like being home schooled except for once a week you have online skype were you talk to your teacher and they will tell you what you need to do for the next week.
