My Scariest Dream

One of my scariest dreams happened when I was about seven years old. It was set at the front yard of my house. I was with my neighbor friends and we were taking turns on the Tarzan rope that was hanging from the tree. I went to the neighbor's house to see my dad. He was there on the couch, talking to a friend of his. I walked back to my front yard to continue playing, but everyone was trying to get on the rope as once. They were a grabbing the rope and trying so hard to get on, that they didn't see a car drive up. I was the only one who saw it and I knew right away that something was not right. I started running to my neighbor's house so I could get my dad, but it felt like I was running in water. I looked behind me towards my friends and a man had gotten out of the car and he was grabbing all of them in his arms. I tried to keep running, but I could not move. I tried yelling for help, but it was a quiet whisper. I looked back again, and the man was pushing my friends towards his car. I tried so hard to scream for my dad, but it only sounded like a soft echo. I couldn't save them and no one else could either. I had to wake up to myself yelling for help with no one answering me. This dream reminds me of what my parents used to say about talking to strangers. They said that people you do not know can steal you away. I always thought that the people who stole children would boil them up in a big pot and eat them. This dream scared me a lot because of that thought that I used to have as a kid.

Keepsake Items

Memory

The item that reminds me of a good memory is a bag of magnetic rocks. Magnetic rocks are small, black stones that are magnetically charged so when you through them in the air, they make a cool noise when the collide. I got to travel on the train alone with my dad while he was at work. My dad works as a chef, so I actually got to help out in the kitchen, plating up food and doing prep work.  One of the stops while on the train was in Jasper, Alberta. There was a lot of tourist shops and my dad showed me around the city so I could get something. In one of the shops, you could fill a small bag with magnetic rocks for ten dollars. When I remember where I got the rocks, I remember the train trip with my dad.

Importance Now

The item that reminds myself of an importance to me now is my window. My window faces to the east and the sun can shine through my window every morning. I love opening the curtain to the bright light that streams in. My relationship with God is really important to me. I feel that He is always there for me and I can rely on Him at all times. When I open my curtains, I see the light, and it reminds me of God's light to me when I feel like I'm in a dark place. Opening the curtain reminds me when I open up my life to Him so His light will come in.



Hope and Dream

Items that reminds me of my hope and dream is the photo albums at home. I have a lot of albums at home filled with memories of the past. The albums give me the dream of making more albums in the future. Not just to make the albums, but to create memories. When I look through the pictures, I wonder what the pictures will show in the future. I'm excited for the memories I'll make with future friends.

Persuasive Paragraph

Getting a bumper car is way cooler than finishing medical school. First of all, when you finish medical school, you're already an adult and ready for a real job. However, with a bumper car of your very own, you are a kid at heart forever. Additionally, when you get your medical degree and become a doctor with a healthy paycheck, you will probably drive around in your Mustang or Ferrari, which are already so old. Think about how cool you would look driving up to your job at the ice cream parlor in your bumper car. Along with that, whenever you get into an accident, you wouldn't care because there would be no crash, just a bump. No broken windows, no dented doors. It would be fun to get in an accident. Having a bumper is way cooler than finishing medical school.
