My Thankful List from A-Z by Emily Marchant


I have come to two conclusions. One: My eleven year old's list should be renamed, "My Obsession with Shia LaBeouf List" and Two: By age eleven, parents are no longer included on the list or any family for that matter!



A: Ashley- Character in Disturbia (Shia's love interest)

B: Brecht- Kale Brecht's last name from Disturbia
(Shia plays him)

C: Constantine a movie Shia LaBeouf was in.

D: Disturbia (My favorite movie of course Shia is in it!)

E: Even Stevens My favorite old (meaning in her life span: ended four years ago) TV show, Shia was the main character.

F: Francis Quimet (Character Shia played in The Greatest Game Ever Played)

G: The Greatest Game Ever Played (One of my favorite movies, Shia stars in it)

H: Holes (One of my favorite books and movies. Shia is in the movie.)

I: I, Robot (One of my favorite movies, Shia has a small part)

J: June- the month Shia was born.

K: Kale (the name of Shia in Disturbia)

L: LaBeouf (Shia's last name)

M: Maverick (Cody Maverick's last name in Surf's Up, Shia is the voice of the character)

N: Nail biter- What the critics called Disturbia.

O: Out of your seat. (What you will do when you watch Disturbia)

P: Pulse Pounding- What the critics said about Disturbia. *Note- I think she definitely could have put parents here, but no, pulse pounding won!

Q: Quimet (the last name of the character Shia played in The Greatest Game Ever Played)

R: Ronny (Kale's best friend in Disturbia)

S: Shia (need I say more)

T: Transformers (My other favorite movie with Shia)

U: I don't know!

V: Voight (the last name of an actor in Holes)

X: X-Ray (a character in the movie Holes)

Y: Yelnats (last name of Shia's character in Holes)

Z: Zero (a character in Holes)

Author's Note: I know some don't make sense, but I am thankful for the people who said pulse pounding and that junk.

Mother's note: Real wisdom from an eleven year old. I vaguely recall an obsession with C. Thomas Howell and the movie The Outsiders when I was eleven, but would I have devoted an entire "Thankful List" to that????? Maybe.

Talk about being old--I have never even heard of Shia LaBeouf. In fact I can barely spell it. Sounds almost like a meal in a fancy French restaurant to me.

Emily might have at least put under "G" Grandma who has never heard of Shia LaBeouf.
