Beach Poem

Cool nights and warm days
Laying out and catching rays
By the pool or beachside
No complaints when outside
Swimming in the sea
Always being carefree
No worries or stress
Just every day being the best
The smell of sunscreen and saltwater lingering
As the moon and stars start twinkling
Starting the next day just the same
As the night begins  to fade away

I used end rhyme, euphony with some cacophony, and imagery.

  1. This is a very good example of imagery. This is because of the great describing words that you used.

Fall Break Free Post

       Fall break is definitely one of my favorite breaks. It is a great break from school to relax and have fun. This past break, my mom and one of my friends mom surprised us with a trip to New York for our birthdays. We were both super excited and could not wait until we got there.        We had to get up at 3:30 Thursday morning to get to New Orleans to catch our flight. After the short plane ride, we did not waste any time, we jumped right in to doing things. We shopped the first day and went out to dinner for an early birthday dinner at the Sugar Factory. The next few days, we spent in Central Park, Little Italy, Brooklyn, and SoHo. Also, we went to see Hamilton. It was awesome! Overall, I had a very fun fall break and got a good break from studying and homework.

Kayaking

        This summer when I was at camp in Washington I went kayaking in the San Juan Islands. On the last day, there was a huge channel we had to cross. It was 6 miles long. On the channel, there were ferries, boats, and sailboats all crossing. Also, it was the most popular time of year for boats. To top it off, it was about to rain so the currents were even stronger. Aside from the currents and traffic, the water was crystal blue and the wind was blowing off the chilly water so the weather was perfect.        My group and I started on shore on the other side of our destination. We took a long break and then decided to cross the channel. The kayaking guides instructed us where to point our kayaks to break the currents. Once we started the adrenaline kicked in and we started to paddle through. At points, it felt as if we were getting pulled backwards but we kept having to paddle strongly. The best feeling was when we made it back to the harbor and...

Reading Response: Fangirl

         The book I am reading right now is Fangirl  by Rainbow Rowell. It is about a girl named Cath who is obsessed with Simon Snow. Simon Snow is a writer who Cath and all her friends love. The love for this writer is what got Cath and her twin sister, Wren, through their moms death. When Cath goes to college, she feels lost. Her roommate is with her boyfriend 24/7 and her sister wanted to branch out and meet new people, so she is feeling very lonely. Also, she is worrying about her dad who has never been alone before.         So far I really like this book. I am a little confused on the whole fangirl thing with Simon Snow, but it will probably describe it later on in the book. While reading the first few chapters of the book, I have started to understand the main characters. There are lots of characters so its hard to keep track of who's who, but once I understood all of them the book started to get good.
