Why Write!

Hi guys I sort of wanted to write a story because I am quite terrible at expos ><

Black book of treasures

She never did have any friends. Her parents were too busy working to pay much attention to her. She cooped herself up in the house all day, with her black book tucked safely under her arm and a pen in her pocket. “She must live a boring life,” the other children said.

Or so they thought. Her life was anything but boring. She went on adventures every day, made new friends every day, and visited new places every day. She had a secret she shared with no one, not even her parents. Truth was, she had her very own magical world, a world where no one else could go, for only she held the key to this world. It was a beautiful world. This world would morph into different places, and all she had to do was to concentrate hard on the place where she wanted to go. In this world, she could be anyone she wanted to be, whether it was a princess, a mermaid, a brave female warrior, or even a dolphin! Again, all she had to do was focus. She rushed home from school every day, ready to enter her magical world, where she had full control of who she was, where she was and what she was going to do.

Just yesterday, she was a pirate, who stole from the rich and gave to the poor. She wore a red bandana, a black patch over her left eye, had a shiny steel hook for a right hand and a wooden left leg. On her left shoulder stood Percy the parrot, who would ask for crackers every five minutes and left her fuming. She spoke with authority as she ordered her crew around. Many feared her, and she was known as the Terror of the Seven Seas. Just hearing the name made others shudder and cringe in fear. She stole from many rich merchants sailing the seas and gave them generously to the poor. To some, she was the worst thing you could ever imagine, but to others, she was a heroine.

"What adventures shall I embark on today?" She wondered as she skipped home. Joyful chatter was heard as she walked past a playground where all the other children were playing. The other children suddenly grew very silent, stopping to watch her as she passed by, gleefuflly skipping her way home. "Lonely? Who needs friends when I have you?“ She held her black book close to her heart and felt for the pen in her pocket. Then she ran all the way home, with a knowing smile on her face, ready for another exciting adventure.

My 55 fiction \(^_^)/ !!!

I've never found writing this fun I must admit, since I am someone who is not really inclined in this area =/. But this 55 fiction was really interesting and enjoyable and it really challenged me! Something like a game haha. I'm not very good at this but here goes!

Waiting for rain
He stood in the scorching sun, teddy bear dangling from his hand. It had not rained since she left. The sweltering heat was simply unbearable, but there he stood, his feet firmly planted in the ground. Every day, he stared out. Every day he waited. Every day, he wondered when this drought would finally end. (55)

Lifeless present
She lay there, slumped in a corner. She used to be really lovely, with her long golden french braid and her beautiful sun dress. She used to be loved. Oh, how she longed to move again! But there she lay stiff, suffocated by a layer of dust. Fallen and forgotten, stuck in that little corner. (55)

Fight
Stepping up onto that hard yet soft platform, he heart pulsated uncontrollably. I focussed on that blurry white figure before me. There was no time to lose; reach out, grab, pull! At the speed of light, I spun into position. He flew. Cheers and war cries echoed all around. Ah, the sweet taste of victory. (55)

(This was written because as many know I'm oh so passionate about judo hahaha it's not very interesting especially since few can relate to it and because it's very obvious. I wrote it in the situation of a judo competition and that is something I would like to experience in the near future! VICTORYYYY haha it sounds a little far-fetched though but imagining it in my head makes me happy)

Celebration
It was time. Time to spread my wings and fly. Soon, I would be leaving my comfort zone and venturing into the real world. I felt the strong shake that was the cue for me to count down. I was fired up and tension rose. "POP!" I flew! Cheers of "yam seng!" acknowledged my success. (55)


Whee that's all for now. Busy times! I shall write more next time (: Bye for nowww
