Are you hungry?
“Dinner!” my mom yells. I run into the kitchen to find MY FAVORITE MEAL, spaghetti with marinara sauce, fruit salad, and lemonade.
My mom and I make spaghetti together as much as we can. It’s one of the first meals I learned how to make. Thin spaghetti noodles boiled and drained, red marinara sauce with ground beef topped off with Parmesan cheese, and a lot of salt and pepper. Spaghetti is delicious.
Fruit salad is a great side for Spaghetti. My family’s fruit salad has juicy apples, beautiful fresh strawberries, ripe blueberries, a can of mandarin oranges and scrumptious pineapple chunks. We use pink lemonade powder mixed with water and Sprite to make refreshing pink lemonade, which completes this tasty meal.
Whenever we have this meal we have it as a family, at our big square table that can fit all eight of us. My whole family likes spaghetti just as much as I do. “Thanks, Mom” I say as we sat down to eat.
I have always been a messy eater. “Slow down” my dad says. “Can I get thirds?” I ask him in return. My sisters and I keep on thanking my mom. At the end of the meal I go into my room, lie on my bed, and think of how full I am and how delicious it was. I hope I will be able to eat it again soon.

What's in a name?
My name really fits me. It’s just who I am. I couldn’t imagine having a different name. My name is Ryan Christopher Johnson.
My first name, Ryan is a great name. My Mom and Dad were looking at a book with baby names in it just after they were married, and once they spotted the name, Ryan, they were hooked. I think I would have been too. They weren’t even expecting a baby at the time, but they thought, ‘if we have a boy, we’ll name it Ryan.’ In Irish my name means ‘kingly’ or ‘little king’.
My middle name is Christopher. That’s my Dad’s first name. My dad and I are so alike. I look a lot like my Dad when he was little. When he was little he was very short, just like I am. We both love soccer, ping-pong and basketball. We both love football as well. I plan to go to Brigham Young University when I grow up, just like my Dad. It’s really neat to be named after my Dad. Christopher is Greek and means ‘Christ-bearer’. When I have a son I will continue this tradition and give him ‘Ryan’ for his middle name.
My last name is Johnson. It’s a really common last name, but it’s just perfect for me. I love all my names.

Spaghetti, Books, and Thunderstorms
Spaghetti, Books and Thunderstorms might sound like a strange title for this blog post so I'll tell you why it's called this... This is the title of my Autobiography. It's a project we had to do in Language Arts. It was actually really fun. I had to do a front cover, a title page. I didn't have to do a back cover but I thought it would be cool. I decided to put pictures of throughout my life.
Prologue
The title of my writing portfolio, “Spaghetti, Books, and Thunderstorms” is foreshadowing. This project has many topics and the title gives you clues to a few of them. I think it is an interesting title that will hook you and make you excited to read this and learn a bit about me.
Just so you know, my name is Ryan Christopher Johnson and I have a great life, which you will soon learn from my book.
This writing project is a bunch of individual writing topics to show my life and feelings. It has many purposes. First it will help me with narrative writing. Second, it will help you understand me and get to know me. Third, it is a fun way to express my feelings about life.

A Letter of Introduction
Dear Reader,
My name is Ryan Christopher Johnson. I am a person who plays many sports, who reads a lot and is very smart. I like golfing with my dad. I also like eating (Spaghetti most) and playing the piano. I love playing videogames. I have a DS and a Wii. I love playing with my baby brothers. I love playing on my trampoline. I have a happy family and a good attitude. That is all I need to live a great life.
I am the oldest of 6 kids. I have three beautiful sisters and two playful little brothers. The youngest one is a baby only 4 months old. My sisters are all in elementary school though none of my brothers are yet. My dad has a job as a radiologist at Martin Army Community Hospital. My mom was a second grade teacher until she started having kids. All of her students loved her. I have the greatest family of all time.
I love my middle school, Blackmon Road. My Favorite subject is Math. I find it fun to solve problems. I also like doing big projects like this autobiography. (Even though they are tiring.) In this autobiography I have many topics. I really hope you enjoy reading about me.
Sincerely,
Ryan C. Johnson
