Game For Milton Bradley

If I were to make a game for Milton Bradley, it would be a game similar to Monopoly. It would be similar to Monopoly in that there would be many things to do on the way to winning, this will be in the form of many different things to achieve to get each token. In a few ways, though, this game would be different. One, this game would be a lot shorter than Monopoly. This is so that if you only have time for a quick game, you can play it, while competitive people can play multiple rounds. It would be a multi-player game, probably allowing around 4-8 players to play, but there will also be instructions for a two-player modified version.  The object of the game will be to collect some sort of tokens from around the board. Each person will have to go to different locations and try to collect all of the tokens before the other players can. The game will have a theme, such as a famous city or other places, but there will be many versions of the game available. The game will be somewhat challenging so that it is fun to play multiple times, but there will be a modified version stated in the rules. There will be no point system, because sometimes I feel that that takes over the game.

That is all of the rules that I can think of right now. I cannot come up with a name for the game, though. If you think of a name, you can comment below. I know that was a lot of words packed into a little space. Sorry!

A Night Divided Beginning

Yesterday we started to read A Night Divided. The main character is a girl living in East Berlin during the Cold War. Her name is Gerta. So far, the story is telling about the first four years after the wall went up. The night the wall went up, Gerta's father and brother were on the other side of the wall, looking for work, and later, they planned for the rest of the family to join them. Now, the family is separated by the wall. I think that the problem in the book might be that Gerta and her mom and brother try to find a way to get over the wall to join her father on the American side of Berlin. I am excited to see what will happen in the rest of the book.

Cross Country Meet

As some of you may know, there is a Cross Country meet today after school. It will be our first one of the season, so it is only 1 mile. Most other meets will be two miles. I am excited. If you are in a sport, please tell me in the comments how you feel about a game/meet.
