My Silly Scribbles from ENG 218

It's good to be back! If you've been starving for some ridiculousness from me, I'm sorry I made you wait a decent 2 weeks. We were supposed to go on a trip of a lifetime back to visit Germany, Italy and Denmark but because of stupid weather, unlucky circumstances, and no wiggle room to rebook our trip we had to cancel. It meant a lot to our family, especially to visit family in Denmark.

Vader isn't what you would call a "people person."

So the next best place we could think of was, naturally, DISNEYWORLD. and HARRY POTTER WORLD. if you're FB friends w/ me, go see the 80+ pictures that were taken by your's truly.


Tagent= almost over


I bring this up, because on this trip, I brought a writing journal w/ me to fufill my writing goal of writing everyday {which I would give myself about 3.5/5 stars--but I read 5 books! Holy whuuut??}


And because I brought it w/ me, it brought back memories and I decided to post some of the ones that I enjoyed writing, and reading over again. These posts are unedited, how they are seen in my journal. The journal entries were part of a class requirement--I just had to have a certain amount of writing but I could write about anything--which I did. The freewrites were timed and I had about a max of 5min to write.

{describing a childhood home/setting}

Germans. Everywhere. Mountains faced us on the east all covered with thick evergreens. The Tree of Life is the left, probably the tallest and biggest tree I’ve ever seen in my whole life—taller and thicker than a mansion, with a handsome bird’s nest on the highest point. Some of our crazy neighbors are herding their flock of sheep; those buggers always manage to break out and graze by the Tree as though it’s a magnet to all living creatures. Depending on the time of year, the grass is tall and bends like waves on a windy day, or the field gets a buzz cut and hay bales that look like giant marshmallows take its place. Germans are staring at me through their windows.
