Haiku Quickwrite p. 494


A special day was the first day of my middle school. Since I have been in the local school for five years of my elementary school, it was a big change for me. And also my local school was a really big one with seven classes in grade and thirty something students every class. So I was really nervous when I know that there are only 100 students in our school, and there are only five students in my class, or grade. I can still remember hearing the bird singing when I woke up. I can smell my breakfast in the kitchen while I get ready all my stuff. I couldn't really sleep the night before since I was too excited and nervous. But I was not a bit tired. As I walk in to my school peeking around, I can hear old students chatting with their best friends about what they did in the summer, and I can see those new students like me sitting in their sit not talking or evening moving at all. As I walk further, I started to realize how small this school is. With only one floor and a 6th floor as gym, I was shocked because my old school was really really big. As the classes begin, the funnest part was getting to know each other, hearing everyone introducing themselves over and over again every class. And I can also feel the new books I just got, how its so slippery and new. And how every page was so white like snow. After school, I was still really excited as I describe my first day to my mom and my sister, and listening as my sister tell hers. So my special day is finally ending, my excited and nervous day.

A Blessing Quickwrite P. 480

I am visualizing a clear blue shy with white and puffy clouds. The sunlight shining on flowers making the water drops reflecting. The air is fresh. Its not too hot but not too cold. With fields and fields of grass. As I stand in the middle of everything, no matter where I look, there is grass. I can see children running and playing in the grass while their parents sit under the tree like they are having a picnic. The smile on the children faces made me want to smile too. As they play and run around with their dog, their parents are watching them with smiles just like I am. I love this scene. This scene make me feel warm and happy, especially the smiles on the children's faces show how naive they are. I often think, why can't we always stay at that time, when we were all happy. The family are happy and I want my family to be to.
