English 2 - Academy of the Redwoods

Tuesday, August 22, 2006

From where I stand I see life. I see couples in love, and wishing, wanting singles. I see parents and their children, sometimes angels, sometimes brats. I see the poor student dressed as a hot dog trying to attract the passing girls, but he is soon forgotten as a group of teen boys steal their eyes, attention, and hearts. The boys pass, the girls return to hurried chatter and pass an old man taking his daily walk with his dog. I watch others' lives through a pair of eyes that belong to a man who calls the sidewalk his home.

Nice description on your FWIS. A

Your freewrites are very good. I hope the "birthday weekend at the cabin" works out.

I enjoy your writing, and the personal events are relevant--don't stop writing about your life--but I'd like you to take a step in a different direction: every so often, write about an "impersonal" subject--something from the news or a reading, or an object, etc. Just try using a different "voice" in your freewrites.

Excellent A
