Poem & Personal Story (422 Words)

the sky is red as the sun rises in the morning
the birds start to chirp and feed on the worms
the grass has do that sparkles in the morning light
the sun comes up a little more
the animals and flowers start to rise the temperature starts to rise as the sun does
heat begins to take over the day some animals begin to hide the sun reaches its highest point
the begins to set slowly
the sky becomes red again the temperature closes
so do the flowers
animals begin to sleep
some come out to play
the night start
so the day can come in the morning


So this part of my writing isn't a poem  but I just wanted to talk about something kind of personal. So I have this friend who's name is Zach. I have known Zach since I was born. He is a few years older than me and has been a good friend to me throughout the years. My family and his family would go camping every year and it would be the best week of my summer. Well when Zach graduated high school he signed up to go into the army. At first I thought it was pretty cool and didn't really think a whole lot of it but then I heard he was going to be sent to Afghanistan. This really hit home for me. Until I heard this it had never really accrued to me how real the war was, until someone very close to me was sent over there. When he was sent over I prayed constantly for his safety and that he would return safely. He would post updates on face book every once in a while saying he was all right. One day he posted a picture of one of his friends who had been killed during one of his missions. He had known this guy since he started basic training. This really made me feel even more scarred for Zach and i prayed for him even more. Luckily Zach is home safe now. He has been home for 3 weeks and hopefully will not have to go back the Afghanistan. But until you actually have someone you know go through the living hell that is war its very hard to for us to realize that what is going on over there is a reality and that people die every day. So just keep all of the soldiers over there in your thoughts and prayers because the need it.

The Apple

Today i saw an apple fall from a tree I know it doesn't sound cool but it actually blew my mind I immediately thought of the saying "the apple does fall far from the tree" I'm not sure why but it was just so amazingly awesome to watch it fall and hit the ground. I took out my notebook and wrote down what I saw. The saying the apple doesn't fall far from the tree is supposed to mean something like this. Lets say a child acts a certain way. Its most likely that he got that trait from the parent. The parent is like the tree, it has all the apples on it and the child is like the apple that has fallen off the tree. The trait the apple received came from the tree and the apple couldn't have gone far.

Driving Life (264 Words)

So yet again I have no idea what to write about. I feel as if my mind is blank. I just feel really tired and don't want to do anything at all, especially write 250 words. But I made an oath so I guess I will just have to force my self to write. So I was actually trying to think of something mind blowing to write but then it just kinda turned into a joke. Almost where I was trying to sound serious but it sounded like a joking serious, if you know what. You probably don't, it probably made no sense at all but what I was going to write was something like how driving is like life. When you start out you hardly know how to drive, and in life its like walking, but then it gets easier. But once you get used to the road you start driving new places that you aren't used to which is a lot like life when you get older and you start exploring new things. Along those roads there are different things that could get in your way, such as speed bumps which can slow you down a lot. Or you could come up to a traffic jam, where you stop all together. Sometimes you get in an accident which just sucks. Life is a lot like driving, it can be easy and get difficult and then sometimes you can get on the freeway and just cruse without a worry in the world. Its really quite amazing how much driving is like life itself.

Random (268 Words)

I feel the carbonation of the soda coming up from my stomach. It feels like the bubbles of at the bottom of a water fall. Wow I just realized how weird that sounds but i am just free writing right now so I can say anything. Like I wish i was a Jedi! How freaking awesome would it be to be a Jedi? You could have a lightsaber and cut stuff with it. You could use the force and move things and have like internal peace or whatever. Think of everything in a different ways or in a new perspective like in the dead poets society. What? I just made a connection I feel so smart now I feel like an awesome person right now except now I fee like I am gloating but who cares its free writing. I really like coffee! Its amazing almost as amazing as being a Jedi. But being a Jedi would be much for awesomer than just drinking coffee. Well I really like iced coffee. Its soo good! Ahhh, now I want coffee. Well I'm gonna go make some coffee at 9 at night so I can not sleep tonight and be really tired in the morning and because I am so tired i will forget to set an alarm and then be late for my Japanese class. Then be tardy, and if I get 4 tardies then it equals 1 absent and I can only have 5 absences. This is so stressful! Ok I'm gonna go make the coffee now so, good bye talk to you tomorrow whoever is reading this.

Late Night Thoughts

So we finished the dead poets society in creative writing today i really liked it it made me think about alot of things alot of it was like what mr. a said we need to let our inner chld out so we dont loose iit like most people do when they get older it also made me realize that writing doesnt have to be done a certain way and only that way it can be done how ever you want you just ogt to let it flow throgh your body and down your arm and into your fingueres and then onto the paper and just never stop untill your figure tips are bleeding from typing or just too much writing well you probably should make yourself bleed but just keep writing like i havent stopped once during this whole writing session i just want it to become natual so i just keep on writing even if i dont know what to write about like mr. a said just dont stop you can cuss if you want to just keep writing i feel like i am repeating myself alot but its all true and now every time i think of writing and not stopping it makes me think of the scene in the dead poets society where he tells him to describe the man and he just keeps going and going thats what i want to be able to do just keep going and not stop even if i dont want to write anymore it will just keep coming to me

Bed Time

It's bed time I pull back the covers to my bed and lay down feeling the softness of the sheets they are cold but not the bad cold I pull the covers back over me and I start to feel mor tired my head lays down o. What feels to be the softest material In the world the light from my lamp illuminates my room just enough to where I can see about everything in my room but yet it's not to bright my body heat has started to warm up the sheets and u feel even more drowsy than I did before I begin to think about what tomorrow holds ther could be all sorts of adventures waiting for me I guess I will never know until tomorrow so I should try and get some sleep but I just can't I am nervous the start if something I have never done before seems to be all I can think about and I can't control it I tell my mind to calm down and just think of sleep it works for now hopefully I can get some sleep I turn of my lamp just above my head and the entire room goes dark my mind starts racing again and I feel nervous of what tomorrow might bring I have to force myself to calm down and then I start to feel better I try thinking of the fun and positive things that tomorrow will bring I will see friends and learn new things in a new environment this wont be as bad as I first thought my eyes begin to get very heavy and they start to shut my world begins to fade into the darkness known as sleep and the next thing I know it was morning

The Future (253 Words)

What does the future hold? The future could hold so many good things or many bad things. Will it be the futuristic sci fi type of future where everything is high tech and life is so much easier, like star trek? That would be amazing to be able to travel at warp speed and arrive at a planet never even heard of before in just a few days. It would be insane! Medicine will have had advanced as well. Who knows maybe a cure for cancer will be discovered. There are so many possibilities that could make the world a better place to live. But there is also the possibility of an apocalyptic future like water world. Where humans have destroyed the environment and it is almost impossible to live on earth any more and people have to fight to survive. Would there be someway to save the human race like in wall-e where they build a huge ship and put the entire human race on it so they can continue to live. The human race could also be left to fend for themselves with no help at all. There are so many possible outcomes for our future but nobody can know for sure what it will be. It could be the amazing high tech future where life is easier, or the apocalyptic future where humanity is on the verge of extinction with no where to go. I believe we all have a choice as to what future we as humans will have.
