I could barely feel my arms, but I wouldn't give up, I would keep resisting. Fighting for my home and for everyone else in Smoke which I now considered my family. Except one, Tally Youngblood.
She was the reason to all of this, she was a spy, a traitor, my enemy. As much as I tried to save my home, I couldn't do anything about it. The day I never expected to arrive had finally came, the day, Smoke was destroyed.
I had been captured and there was no chance I would escape. Three Specials, two of them holding my arms forcing them against my back as if they were bound together. But even so I tested my luck. I pulled once again and bit the second Specials' hand. It was useless.
"I have told you before and I will tell you again: We don't want to hurt you. But we will..." Explained the second Special.
"If we have to. I got it already, okay?!" I interrupted.
He grimaced and I looked away.
"Hold her," the third Special demanded, "I need to tie the handcuffs!" Defeated, I gave one last pull and gave up. They were too strong for me. They were flawless.
"Take her and be careful!" ordered the thi...
Journaling is a past-time long forgotten. Finding time to write everyday presents a challenge for many, and so does finding a topic to write about when a mundane day passes. Because of this, most people choose to bypass journaling; however, I have recently rediscovered the purpose of recording my every day shenanigans. Just a week ago I noticed a small notebook hiding behind a few unread books while I was cleaning my bookshelves. As I pulled it from its little nook, it registered in my brain what
‘WRITE EVERYDAY’ it is a common advice. Indeed writing is an important and inescapable part of our daily life. When a person learns how to write daily, a whole world of possibilities open for him. He can pen up his thoughts, create a story and can make his own illusionary world. Writing promotes one’s ability to pose worthwhile questions. Writing is something which is enduring, it always leaves an impact on others. It makes thinking visible. Writing daily makes you seem more professional and genius
proved not as interesting as I wanted, and certainly not as aesthetically pleasing, I moved to plan B: creating my own ink by boiling grape peals. The ink was a deep shade of purple (and smelled like wine); I was sure it would write just like ink from a pen and I would have a beautiful project. However my ego got the better of me. As it turned out the fermented ink would not write on my bark surface. Instead it absorbed into the bark never to be seen again. I moved to plan C. Creating a smoother surface
white natural objects shaded with dots and lines. This was a completely new style of shading for me and it is one that I like a lot. Then I started developing my final art piece for the year I took a section of my garden and drew and shaded it in black pen after this I did 2 or 3 more pictures of this section of my garden one in pencil one in collage and one in acrylic.
The narrator of “Penmanship” is a man madly in love in the art of writing. It is through entering the enchanting world of pen and paper that he is able to face the complexities of reality like social cancer (corruption), violence (murder) and fiery emotions (love) with strength and confidence. He could feel “a twinge of sorrow” every time he mails a letter because he had voluntarily given away a part of himself. I think for him (and may I boldly include everybody else who writes) that every word
my emotions in the moment. It is very rare for me not to have a journal and a pen in my bag, ready to scribble down my thoughts. Whether I am sitting in class, or if I am sitting at the base of a waterfall - I love to write down everything that is happening around me. I would argue that one of my favourite things is the satisfactory feeling of flipping through a completed journal. I feel a sense of pride with every pen smudged page that I flip, reminiscing on where I was when it was written. I find
plot can stand for altered meanings, which aren’t absolutely necessary for the reader to understand to understand the story line. Furthermore, the three main symbols in “Death of a Salesman,” are first, Willy Loman’s wife’s stockings, the fountain pen, and last, also most important the rubber hose connected to the
As I sit down at my laptop to write this response paper about California Typewriter, a small part of me feels ashamed it’s not on a typewriter. After viewing the film it’s hard not to feel that way, even just a little bit. Leaving the theater I envisioned writing this response paper on a typewriter, scanning it into the computer, and submitting it that way. That on creative hopeful idea quickly died, though a bit faster than the demise of the typewriter itself. Before realizing the papers had to
The brooch is elegant and majestic. It is in the shape of an owl sitting gracefully on a branch. Detailed and colourful, it is as interesting to look at as the life it has lived. Belonging once to my grandma, the owl is old now – and sleepy. Her eyebrows sit heavily over her beautiful eyes, bright like little diamonds despite the brooch’s age. She is midnight blue and has deep pink flowers in the middle of her body; “Look at me”, she seems to say, “I am beautiful.” Green leaves accompany the flowers
The pen is mightier than the sword The pen influences your mind peacefully. Weapons do not. They tend to violate every path of human kind. The pen influences more people than the sword and has more impact on their lives. The power of the sword is negative destruction of life, and the sword has only caused problems during its reign of power. Early man relied on their muscle power. In fight the for existence, it was survival of the fittest. Gradually man became civilized and progressed in society
necessary. Since the first words were created, the technology has been advancing. Since I was a young boy, I have been using that technology and this project helps me to realize what struggles and what successes I have encountered. We do not even need pen and paper. I learned to write with paper and pencil. Now, we use computers and voice-mail. These are technologies we did not have a few years ago. I have become so accustomed in such a short time with these brand new technologies. I struggled to
Comparing Magazines: Smash Hits and Select The title 'Smash Hits' suggests that the magazine is full of music and is full of the latest 'hits' from different bands and musical artists. The word 'smash' suggests that the magazine contains new releases from different artists. The title 'select' suggests that the reader would want to 'select' the magazine because there is a selection of music inside the magazine. Inside the word 'select' are the two words 'total stereo' which suggests
Throughout my life, reading and writing was not always my strongest point. In fact, it was one of my weaker subjects and I loathed being forced to read and write when it comes to school. I remember even up to the end of my senior year, I rarely touched any of my textbooks or barely read any of my assigned books throughout high school. However, as I began college, I started to force myself to fully read all my textbooks and complete my writing assignments with my fullest capabilities. In the past
Calliope meet with her friends at the Vagabond, as they are discussing homecoming Calliope has an urge to write as the words are nagging her to let them out she is trying to fight it, trying to find a red felt tip pen to write down the thoughts spinning round in her head but the pen was running out and she won't write with anything out her than a red felt tip.I interacted with this part of the book because it intrigued me that Calliope constantly has urges to write snippets of words that relate
developed, it’s ruining the art of ink on paper. The computer has changed the way students complete their projects or study for the big test. Less than five years ago, people would bring only a pen/pencil to school along with a pad of paper. For homework, they would have to answer everything by stroking the pen along the paper, but now, it has changed. Instead of just paper and pencils, you need hundreds of dollars worth of accessories for a single item, the computer. Personal computers were invented
