Great writing!

Hey class!

I'm reading your journals, and they are so fantastic! I want to share some of the best writing with you. If you are the author, tell me if I can share your name.

I think the perfect friend is a person who likes to share my happiness when I am happy. When I feel sad, she always comforts me. When I want to stay alone, she leaves quietly. When I want to talk at night, she talks with me all night. When I want to do something crazy, she has the same idea as I do. When I do something wrong, she can correct me.


She has a mind of her own. And she listens carefully to my words. She is kind, polite and optimistic. She is very outgoing and fun to be around. She is brilliant, clever and modest. She always helps when I'm in trouble. So, she isn't a fair-weather friend. She and I understand each other's feelings without saying. Even if we rarely meet, we don't feel awkward with each other. We're always together when we're happy or when we're sad. She has a great many friends because she is a perfect friend.


Before I die, I want to travel the world with my family. I want to own a coffee store because that's my dream. I want to get a big house in my country, and I want to have a sports car. At the same time, I want to tell my family I love them and appreciate what they do.

When I think about the future...

When I think about the future, I'm excited, confused and a little nervous. I'm excited because there are so many things I want to do, and I'm looking forward to doing them. I'm confused because I don't know what I should do first. And I'm nervous because some of the things I want to do are a little scary. I'm also nervous that I'll do the wrong thing. But most of all, I'm scared that I'll never do any of those exciting things, and that would be very boring.

Comments

Hey y'all,

I think I fixed the comments!! Give it a try!

No journal this week

I took your journals away from you, so you don't have to write anything this week. Of course, if you want to write, you can. You just can't do it in your class journal. I'll give them back to you on Thursday.
