Restaurant Review- The Counter

Last week, I went out to dinner at a restaurant called The Counter. They mainly serve burgers. The idea of The Counter is to build your burger. I settled on a beef burger, with American cheese, and Russian dressing. However, the burgers took too long to arrive to the table. I was quite hungry when my burger arrived. I took my first bite, and it wasn't as mouth watering and tasty as I was craving. The burger definitely could have used more flavor. I continued to eat my burger and I was getting close to the end of finishing it, when I found a hair on the bun of my burger. I was not impressed at all. In fact, I lost my appetite. I didn't even finish the last few bites. That was my first and last time at The Counter for sure. Overall, my meal was fine. In fact, I give the restaurant a three-star rating only because of their parmesan fries. The parmesan fries were just ordinary fries with parmesan and chives. According to Natalie Lam, they were " mmh..mmh.. GOOD!" If you go to The Counter, ordering parmesan fries is a must. If I had to go back to The Counter, I would only order the Parmesan fries. In any case, the waiters were very nice, and the restaurant was very clean and nice.  If you ever do go to The Counter, make sure you order the right things, or even better, choose a healthier restaurant choice.

5 reasons why I should be allowed to have sleepovers

1. I should be able to have sleepovers  while I'm young. When you are older, you aren't going to want to sleepover. Imagine being 40 years old and actually wanting to sleepover with your friends.
2. You need to enjoy life and have fun! Yolo! ( you only live once!) 
3. You will become closer with your friends! And that's a good thing so they never leave your side. To add on, if they never leave your side, you will never be lonely or sad because your friendship is so strong!
4. Sometimes you and your friend have something you want to do that morning or that night. Then you should just have a sleepover! 
5. I am responsible enough to sleepover at my friends house:)

As you can see, sleepovers are actually very important! Hopefully you realized that too and will be willing to change your mind.

Why dogs should be allowed on the carpet.

1. Dogs deserve to be apart of the family! Let them be with you while doing homework, let them be with you while you are sleeping! You won't feel as lonely in your room. 
2. They won't harm your things if you train them right. Give them a chance and teach them that it's not ok to chew on sheets, or pillows. After you see they can handle being on the carpet, you will then realize that it's ok for them to be in your room, or on the carpet. 
3. My 3rd and final reason is just have them there to show them you love them. They may feel abandoned or sad if they aren't on the carpet with you.🐶 In order to have a good relationship with your dog, you must be show them you love them. Don't leave them out in big things like being on the carpet with you. I believe you and your dog will have a stronger bond, and a better relationship if you just let them do little things like go on the carpet with you.
