Science Fiction Story

Exit 2040

It’s a sunny day in North Palm Beach. The trees stood still as the days went. Today was the day Charlie had his big baseball game, it wasn’t just any baseball game but he was going to play against the Dodgers. 
“Charlie”! “Wake up, its 10:30 and your baseball game is in a half hour,” Alice says. “Sigh, ugh, five more minutes’ mom,” Charlie yells, from his room upstairs. “No now! You still need to eat breakfast and we still need to figure out how to get there,” Alice says. “But mom”, Charlie yells. “No, ifs, ands, or buts, Charlie, I expect you to be downstairs within five minutes dressed and ready to go,” Alice screams. “Fine,” says Charlie. 
When Charlie finally got dressed into his baseball uniform he came downstairs and sat by the kitchen bar. Alice began to fix him scrambled eggs with whole wheat toast, since that was the favorite. 
“Hey mom,” Charlie says. “Yes,” Alice says. “Where’s my baseball game even at?” says Charlie. “Charlie, it’s near Sherwood Estates, and it’s about a 20 minute drive, so you better hurry up and eat or were going to be late,” Alice says. “And mom, can I drive?” Charlie asks. Alice explains “Well we have to take the freeway, and you only have your temps, so I think I should drive. Besides Charlie, were in a rush and I don’t feel like getting in an accident.” “Alright mom,” Charlie says. 
Charlie finishes up his breakfast and he gets his baseball equipment out of the garage. Alice and Charlie get into the car, but Alice needs to grab the gps in order to get to the ball park.
“Here Charlie,” as Alice hands him the gps. “I need you to enter in the parks address for the baseball park,” Alice says. “Well, what’s the address for the baseball park,” Alice says. “Well, what’s the address,” Charlie asks. “Well I’m looking at your baseball schedule and I don’t even see a address, all it says is Exit 2040,” says Alice. “Then let’s take Exit 2040, or whatever it says,” says Charlie. 
Alice began to think in her head about this address to the ball park. Why doesn’t an address exists? Why “Exit 2040,” it just doesn’t make any sense. Alice started the car and they began to head toward the freeway. The gps directed them to every, turn, traffic light, and road which was needed. It was 10:50 now, and Charlie’s baseball game starts in ten minutes. Charlie knew he was going to be late, but that really didn’t matter to him, what did matter was how to get there. 
“Mom, I don’t think we are going the right way. We have been on this road for the past 15 minutes and we haven’t gotten anywhere, I don’t think,” Charlie says. “Charlie, hold your horses, if you didn’t have to wake up so late then we wouldn’t have to worry about being late to your baseball game,” says Alice. 
Five more minutes passes by and when the clock in the car turns to 11:00 Charlie screamed “Mom, there’s Exit 2040,” says Charlie. “I know it would show up sooner or later Charlie, let me get the car in the right lane so we can take the exit ramp,” says Alice. 
As Alice drove the car up the Exit ramp to 2040, a bright white light struck her car and blinded her and Charlie. Alice lost control of her car and had no clue what was going on… 
When Charlie and Alice woke up, they thought they got into a car accident, but no car was in site. They were parked on a road in a lovely neighborhood. 
“Charlie,” asks Alice. “Yea mom,” says Charlie. “Are you okay, you’re not hurt or anything are you”? Asks Alice. “Mom I’m perfectly fine, so are we at the game already,” asks Charlie. “Well I suppose,” says Alice. “I don’t remember anything from the time I got off 2040 and to how I’m parked on the side of this road,” says Alice. “Well, I don’t know either, but hey let’s get out of the car and walk to the baseball park. I think I see it right down that street over there,” says Charlie. “Okay,” says Alice. 
After Charlie grabs his equipment for baseball out of the trunk, Alice and him start walking toward the baseball park. When walking toward the park, Alice looks at the houses alongside the road and she notices that the houses in her neighborhood are nothing in comparison. These houses had solar top roofs, which would contract light during the summer and would be used to heat the house during winter. Also, in place of every mailbox there was a computerized stand that was touch screen, which you could access your electronic mail such as email.
“Dude, these look so sweet, why don’t we have one of those,” says Charlie. “Charlie please don’t call me dude, and it’s impossible to have one of these,” says Alice. “It almost looks like it’s futuristic,” says Alice. “I know,” says Charlie. “How about we just stick with getting to the game, I’m sure you already late enough,” says Alice. 
As soon as Alice and Charlie arrived to the baseball park, there was absolutely no one there. Charlie sets down his bag and turns to look at his mom with a very confused expression on his face. 
“Mom, I don’t understand what’s going on,” says Charlie. “I don’t know either, maybe we took a wrong turn on the freeway,” says Alice. “It’s more than a wrong turn, all I want to do is play my freaking baseball game,” Charlie explains. “Well I’m sorry. How about we grab some Canes and head home, but first I need to get some gas,” says Alice. “Sounds good to me,” says Charlie.
The two of them headed toward the car, and drove off. Alice couldn’t get a signal from the gps, so she just drove around until she found what happened to be a gas station. When she pulled into BP, there was something quit odd. There were no gas pumps, but there were several silver boxes that had a plug from one end to the other. And from that, it said high currency. Alice first thought that this was some kind of air pump, but the high currency wouldn’t make sense. 
“Charlie, can you please get out of the car?” says Alice. Door opens, “yea mom,” says Charlie. “What do you think this is?” asks Alice. “Hey, I saw one of these on a TV commercial, they were predicting that it’s for your electric car,” says Charlie. “If it doesn’t come out until 2040,” then how is it here?” asks Alice. “Well we have no gas so what are we supposed to do now”? Asks Alice. “Mom it all makes sense, we exited 2040, there’s energy efficient homes, and the gas stations are now charging stations, also there’s no baseball game because its 2040!” says Charlie. 
Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, goes Charlie’s alarm clock.
“Charlie wake up it 10:30 and you have a baseball game. Get up you have had plenty of sleep and silly dreams by now. Be downstairs in ten minutes because you don’t want to be late,” says Alice.

Waste of my time

Okay, so as i read Mr potters blog of the week, i thought his topic was quite interesting. It wasn't about what you like to do in your spare time, but what you consider is major waste of time. And I'm sure all of us have different views and ideas of how they prefer to waste their time but let me tell you about mine. 


If im not busy and have decided to waste my time, i tend to do these thing.... 1) Facebook 2) Play video games 3) Download dumb apps on my i pod and if i don't like them then i delete them 3) Study anything that i feel like studying 4) text or call people 5) or do this dumb blog!:)


Though, it depends on what mood that I'm in to waste my time. If I'm happy, then Facebook is probably the right way to go for me, but if I'm mad about something or someone mad me mad, then Black Ops will definitely be my best option (*killing people) :)! Even though i have gotten through all of the levels i will go back through and play muiltplayer or zombie mood, hhehehehah. 


Anyways, i try not to waste my time that much, but if it happens and im bored, then yess, i will decide to waste my time greatly!

Okay so i only have one brother, and his name is Jeff. We get a long the majority of the time, but because were 6 years apart, we really dont get on fights. On week days, were just doing our homeowork, so fighting over lame  stuff isn't really worth it. He's currently going to Ohio University in Pickerington and he workd at his college as well. Though when were younger, we did a lot more fighting. When i was about 7 or 8, me and my brother would fight over pokemon cards, and a bunch of that other crap. I think it was because i wanted all the shiny pokemon cards and he didnt want to give them to me. Another time was win we played baseball in the back yard. Like mr. potter, his brother and him could share the bat, but me and my brother Jeff had some issues with that. He was selfish, and wanted the bat to himself, while i was stuck fetching all of the stupid balls. It was not okay!!! Then when i was like 11, my family would go out to my grandpa and grandmas on sunday to eat a big dinner and then go "go- carting." We would go cart in the field of land that they owned and it was sooooooo fun. But according to my brother i was not allowed to drive. This really mad me mad, cause he wouldnt even give me a chance! What a terd. But eventually i was able to drive the go cart, and let me tell you, it was a whole bunch of fun:)
Overall my brother and i got along okay when we were young, and now we barely even have fights. Its amazing to to notice how when you get older, you get more mature, and dont you dont really care about fighting over the  baseball bat or wanting all the shiny pokemon cards. Cause eventually you understand whats right from wrong.

Heres a picture of me and my brother Jeff!
