Sunny days
Poppies popping out of the ground
Rainy days in April
In a cave a baby animal is born
Nearly everyday the birds sing
God's gift to humanity is spring

Write a post about feelings with no dialogue (under 1000 words, over 200 words)

Reducio

Stress is when you feel like you are being drowned and you can't get out of the flood. You are unable to breathe and you struggle to get out. Instead of water it is stress. Anger is being unable to let go of somthing even if it feels justified. Sadness is a monster that slowly eats your heart and kills you slowly and surely. Happiness is the force that destroys these bad feelings and makes us feel whole again. Excitment is like fire works inside of you that slowly grow and morph into a joy that can't be destroyed. We should embrace excitement and joy.

Write a solo with your character trying something new (under 1000 words, over 200 words)

I walk into the slytherin common room with my bag full of supplies. Supplies for what you may ask, well nobody well because this is in my head. Anyways, I brought supplies that my Mum sent me to try out..... drawing! I sit in one of the large chairs and start to pull out my stuff. There is a 71 piece art pack with charcoal, graphite pencils, smudgers, erasers, and one paper sharpener. I pull out a blank sketch book with a brown leather cover with a intricate desgine on it. Wow Mum went above and beyond.

I pull a 0.2 pencil out and start doing an outline of a person. Nice loose sketching for now Opal. When I am done with that I put proportions on the circle that will be a face. Sketching in gray eyes and a nose I stop. I need a mouth! I pencil one of those in quickly and it all starts coming together. Above the eyes I put thin eyebrows that show that my character will be happy. Nice! I sketch some bangs and a long hairdo. She looks amazing. I put a jean jacket with a few patches on her as well. Sweet!

Short adventure story (under 500 words, over 100 words)

I walk down the empty corridor alone. School has been a challenge! I have met two people and I even kissed one of them! All of a sudden at the end of the corridor I see a brown cat with black spots race down the corridor. Wow it is was beautiful! I bend down and make soft tapping noises to get the cat to come to me. It reluctantly steps in my direction. Come on kitty just a few more steps. It takes a few more uncertain steps and then it trots over. Dang this little guy is trusting! He puts his head under my outstreched hand and I laugh.
"Do you want to be petted little guy?" I ask the cat. In response it purs so I start stroking its head. The cats whole body starts vibrating. "You like that huh?" I tell the cat. It looks like a Bengal but they are usually unpredictable and not cuddly at all. Maybe this little guy is different?
"What is your name little guy? Are you a boy?" I ask. All of a sudden the cat hisses and bats at me. Oops not a boy then!
"Sorry sweetie! I thought you were a boy!" I exclaim. The cat licks my hand and I sit there petting her for a while.

Write a post about your character training for a sport/exercising (under 1000 words, over 200 words)

I am jogging around the beautiful great lake. My goodness it is amazing. The sunlight reflects off of it's smooth surface giving the illusion that it is crystal clear. Maybe it is. Normaly I would reach in to try but the Giant Squid lives in there. Nope not messing with that thing. Tenticals are gross. I pick up my speed and start to breath heavy. Even with my amazing blue new sneakers this is hard! I wear my hair up in a pony tail meaning warm sweat is dripping down my forehead. Ugh gross! Oh well I guess that is what happens when you run around for a while. You know what I am sparkling not sweating. Yeah that sounds dumb even in my head. I keep jogging until my heart rate is very high. My breath comes out in short huffs. I spot a willow tree that isn't very tall yet. Yes a place to rest! I sit underneath the tree to catch my breath. I am trying to get in shape for quiditch next year. I know it is a bit early but a girl can dream right! I get back up and start running in the direction of the school.

I love the the warm gooey chocolate chip oatmeal cookies when they are straight from the oven. When they are baking I feel the anticipation of being able to sink my teeth into one. Or maybe two. Okay I would eat like 10 because they are just so good! Good doesn't even begin to describe how amazing these cookies taste. PErhaps amazing? Nah not good enough. They are the most amazing delcious cookies ever! When I was a little girl my mom used to make me these cookies to make me feel better after a long hard day at school. (IRL RECIPE NOW)
1. Whisk the dry ingredients together in a large bowl.
2. Combine the butter and sugars in the bowl of your stand mixer and beat together until well mixed.
3. Add the egg and vanilla to the batter. mixing until combined.
4. Add the flour mixture and mix on low until almost incorporated, then add the oats and chocolate chips. Mix until combined.
5. Scoop that batter with a small ice cream scoop or cookie scoop. It’s about two tablespoons of dough per cookie.
6. Roll into cookie dough balls and bake at 375F for 8-10 minutes. It never hurts to add a few chocolate chips on top of the cookie dough balls. This way you’ll have nice spots of chocolate peaking out of each cookie.
