Trip to Oobleicka World

There once was a girl named Kamalei Garcia Who wanted something more. She wanted to have adventures and explore the world, to do
more than just to sit around and do nothing all day.

One day there was an announcement that there was going to be a singing contest and the top two singers were going to be able to go to a planet called Oobleicka.

The next day she went to the contest. And she was overjoyed because she knew how to sing and play ukulele. She loved to sing and she had a beautiful voice. She sang to a song called "Waikiki". There were many contestants. And many, many, came to watch as she got up to the stage she was not nervous at all. She sang her heart out. They announced the winners thirty minutes after he last contestant. "2nd place goes to Kaleialoha Ka'auwai", the crowd cheered. "and the grand prize winner is Kamalei Garcia." She jumped and screamed loudly.

The next month they were all there at there at the spaceship. There was a total of six adults. There were three men and three women. The others Besides Kamalei and Kaleialoha were 'Auli'i Herrod and Anuhea Ka'awa who were professional scientists. Also Ka'ulawena Braun and Kalalea Kawa'a who were the pilot and the copilots respectively.

Kamalei who loves to sing, also loves to write. Recorded her daily activities in a journal. The day she arrived at Oobleicka world she wrote...

"Dear Journal,

Today we landed on Oobleicka world . The fire from the spaceships' makes the gooey substance, Oobleck hard and makes it a solid so that the spaceship won't sink . As far as my social life goes. I've became very good friends with all the other passengers. After spending the past four weeks together flying. "

They finally reached Oobleicka world. After two weeks, Anuhea started bragging about how smart he was and how he brought a lot of gas so that we would not run out of gas going and coming back.

Unfortunately, two weeks after, they realized he brought only enough gas for going and coming back. Not realizing that he forgot they had to leave the engine on twenty-four hours a day seven days a week so that the Oobleck would stay hard.

Then, BOOM! the engine shut off, and they started sinking. Everyone except Kamalei started to panic, Oobleck entered from the cracks of the door. They are now stuck. Kamalei rushed over to 'A'uli'i and Anuhea and asked them "What are the base elements of fuelick, a special type of gas, and Oobleck?" They figured that it came out to be exactly the same.

Then it hit Kamalei! She got an idea that she was going to put ice on the Oobleck and its texture became exactly like fuelick. So they put it in the gas hole and it worked. The engine pushed them up to the surface. They saw big and ugly Oobleck monsters. Kaulawena gave out a scream. The Oobleck monsters looked back and gave a scream back.

They took off. And successfully arrived home. They had an amazing tale to tell about there journey, about monsters and there adventurous time.
