We liked the second video, which is a parody, because it shows the reality. In the original carol people get weird presents, while in the parody the composer talks about the real problems that everyone faces. On Christmas, there is no person who doesn't need to buy sweets or toys for their children or who doesn't need to buy a Christmas tree or to rig up lights. Some of the people are hangover before and after Christmas and there is no parking place anymore. Meeting the in-laws is an idea that most of people are terrified of. On this holiday everyone wastes their money on useless things, which leads them to huge debts.

A Halloween night

It’s Halloween night. The fog appears in the landscape and gives you a creepy mood. From the forest it is heard a giggle. It’s Tyler, the werewolf! He laughs with his sister, Hope. He wiggles his tail when he sees me. His eyes are blue like the ocean and his fur shines in the moonlight. Because Tyler is a werewolf, he is dressed in rags.
After a long time we have talked about different things, he decides to introduce  his friends to me. It is a lark for me! At first we go to Amanda, his witch best friend, who is so busy to stir ingredients in her magic cauldron to make potions. At the same time she is groaning some spells, but I don't understand them because they are in a weird language. She is so happy to see us, but suddenly she starts yelling at Tyler because he has left the door of her house open.
When we are about to leave, we say “bye” and she gives me a crystal to remind me of her, but all of a sudden, I see a bat soaring in the air. When it comes to us it is swishing the air with its cloak. He is Kol, Tyler’s friend. The vampire is so charming! He has got blonde hair and green eyes. When we start to know each other better, he begins to wail about his girlfriend because she is so rude with him. Oh, it is too good to be true. Tyler takes me to his house because I want to give a present to his sister, but unfortunately she is sleeping and  snoring terribly.
When it comes the time to leave, Tyler yells “goodbye“ to me howling at the moon, as a sign of sadness because I am leaving. It has been a great trip and I hope I will do this every year, maybe more often!
Cosmina


It was Halloween night, when vampires, undead, mummies, ghosts and witches walked the dark streets. While these horrible beings were walking on the street, a child saw them. The vampire soared and swished with a cape, the mummy groaned, the witch giggled and the undead wiggled and howled. The child feared they might hurt him , so he yowled. The monsters didn't hear the boy scream because they had entered a room and the boy was following them. There the boy saw the witch stirring some ingredients in a cauldron. Also there, the boy saw the mummy who was dressed in rags and there were also the vampire who wailed that undead were snoring. The child made a noise and the monsters turned to him. The monsters took the child from where he was hiding and they took him to another room. The child thought that the monsters wanted to eat him, but they were children too. So they all became friends and had a party. Everything was glaring at the party and it was a lark.

Homework

There was once, a long time ago, another world, full of witches, vampires, werewolves and all kinds of creatures.
In a village lived a witch, a pack of werewolves, a few vampires and about 2-3 mummies.

The witch was the most feared, everyone was afraid of her because she could cast spells, curses,  make potions and much more. The witch always giggled, stirred potions in her cauldron, cast spells and talked to her cat, which was always wiggling its tail.

Werewolves were very separated from the others.
They yowled just mummies when they needed something because they don't  didn't get along with vampires and they were afraid of the witch. When they slept, they snored and groaned so loudly that they sometimes woke up the whole village. Every night, werewolves howled at the moon because it was a tradition of theirs.

Vampires were the most popular in the village. They shone in the sun like diamonds, and when they turned into bats they soared over houses and swished the air. Sometimes it was just a lark to look at them.

Mummies were few and antisocial. They didn’t support  couldn't stand vampires, werewolves or witches. They were always wailing about everything and they were dressed in rangs  ragsold’s by thousands of years., thousand of years old.

With all the differences and habits of these creatures, in the village  it was always a very cheerful atmosphere.

We are in 2024. The Corona virus  has ended and everything is fine… or that’s what I thought until I got a call.
-It’s me, Zoya, I have some bad news.
-Hello to you ,too! What happened? Is it that bad? I was reading.
-DO YOU LIVE UNDER A ROCK? We are getting in quarantine again!
-Ha ha! What a LARK! The pandemic has just ended. Are you ok?
-Stop GIGGLING, it’s serious! They said on at  the news that a zombie apocalypse is coming! I am in FEAR for our lives!
-You are so funny! I am going to STIR some ingredients and make a spell for zombies so that they would disappear.
-WE ARE GOING TO DIE!
I thought that the virus was  had been bad but what came after was so much worse. Three years later, we are hiding   had been hiding in the basement since the middle of 2024 and we were also DRESSED IN RAGS. Nice!
-We don’t have food anymore, Zoya said.
-Let’s go quickly to a store maybe we can find some food.
That was the first time we got out of the basement. When I went outside the sun was GLARING so brightly that it nearly blinded me. At the moment I saw what was outside, I was shocked. No houses, no stores, nothing. Everything had been destroyed.
We went back to the basement, but the door was closed. We were stuck outside. After a big fight, Zoya and I decided to go into the forest hoping we can find a place to hide but as we were walking, I looked up and YOWLED:
-Is that a plane? HELP US!
-Stop yelling! It’s just a bird SOARING in the air.
-Let’s eat it! I am so hungry that I'd eat you, too.
-Stop WAILING, zombie! Let's find a place to sleep.
The night came and we got ready for bed. While Zoya was already SNORING, I heard a strange sound. At first, I was scared but I decided to check. As I got closer, I realized the sound was actually a wolf HOWLING at the moon. I gave it some food and we became friends. The wolf was so happy that it WIGGLED its tail and span around.
A week went by and we were still alive… but not for long. At night, when we and the wolf named Hope, were searching for food ,a zombie came out of the blue. Hope tried to protect us, but the zombie was so much stronger and bit her. She was GROANING and crying. At that moment, we knew that was the end, but we still tried to fight.
Finally, I killed the zombie, but other zombies a appeared. We still tried but that was our end.
-I told you that we are going to die, Zoya said with tears in her eyes. -Arian
