My Notebook

Hello peoples. Today I'm writing about some writing I plan t do at school and an example of it. Here it goes.

So recently I've gotten a notebook to write in for entertainment at school. It's not just for entertainment though it's also because lately I've been feeling a need to write some of these things down. Some of them are stories or poems though they often don't rhyme. Other things would just be sayings I've made or bits of wisdom I want to remind myself or stories about my life. Kinda like a journal but more interesting.

Here is an example of something I'm going to put in.

It's Friday and I'm outside running around my neighborhood. This is my third lap around the block and in spite of the chilly fall winds I've taken my jacket off at my last pass by my house. I've gotten to that point where I've gone far enough I won't be stopping for a while. No, I'm not done with it yet it just pushes me to continue. I come to one sharp hill with bright autumn trees on either side of the road. I speed up to get up the hill and my earbuds keep pumping music. Sweat steadily streaks down my temples and then I'm there. At the top of the hill, the view is amazing and I can see both the sun and the moon like rulers of the sky. The clouds have blended in with the oranges and the purples and the sky is split in half between the day and the night. The sunlight shines almost parallel to the horizon and pronounces the fall trees. I haven't stopped running and I'm sprinting down the street like a rocket. The sunlight is beautiful and I close my eyes for a moment and soak it all in like a sponge. It seems to give me a reason, motivation for my every purpose and reason for everything I do. I keep my eyes close and spread my arms out, greeting anything it's gonna throw at me. I was untouchable.
