I’m out of laundry soap, so I need to get some more. The Winmart doesn’t have the single packet soaps, so I need to go to the other store. I sold my bicycle already, so I’m walking. It’s dark, so I must be careful. I walked 1.5 km, so I’m tired. But now I’m home, so I’m glad. Q. things = [forgot my assignment, ate a whole pizza, witnessed a crime, challenged a gangster] // “I {thing}, so…” Q. walking…
Out with the old and in with the new. It’s time for a change. I got a haircut. I look different, and I feel different too. These old clothes hold memories. It is now time to make new memories. A new day is a chance to make a change. It’s time for a fresh start. Q. Would you ever dye your hair? Q. Agree or disagree: I express my personality through the clothes that I wear.
I went on a bike ride today. I started a little bit late in the day, in the early evening. I followed a road out of the city until I came to an area which is mostly farm land. I turned off of that road and onto a path that went down into a farm land. There were flowers, summer squash and leafy greens being grown. The sun was almost setting by this time, and it looked very large and…
When my cat is alone at home, she enjoys doing these things. She plays in her sand box and buries her potatoes. Then she takes a nap on my bed. She gets full of energy and runs around the room jumping on everything. Then she takes a nap again. She dreams her cat dreams. I had to go to Bac Ninh for a friend’s wedding. I filled up her food and water bowls. I’ll be back in 30 hours. Q….
I’m like that bug that hugs that tree. I hold on. The world moves along, but not me. The things I cling to now, these leaves fluttering in the wind. I am drawing flowers with a pen… and I’m stopped so still that I don’t think I’ll start again. Q. Do you feel ready for the future? Q. What are you holding onto?
These days things have been really good. I have time, and it’s been peaceful. I have a lot of time to spend by myself. In the morning I eat my favorite breakfast and go to the coffee shop. I take my cat pretty much everywhere except work. On my weekends, we spend all day together. Things have been pretty smooth and peaceful. times = [morning, noon, evening]“In the {time}, I __ by myself.” “Peaceful days are days that ______, ______…
I had 2 days off this weekend, and I think I made the most of them. What I like about my job is that when the weekend comes I seize every hour of it. This weekend I played as much as I possibly could. I raced to the coffee shop both mornings, and barely got up from my computer all day. It was like a coffee marathon. I’m exhausted and tomorrow is work, but I don’t regret it. I got…
I went for a bike ride in the afternoon. I bought a couple of things. I stopped at a bakery where they were selling bread fresh out of the oven. It smelled really good and I stopped to buy one. Later, I saw a road-side flower stand and stopped there to buy some cherry blossoms. I thought that my cat would play with them. My cat didn’t play with the flowers. She smelled them and looked at me like I…
It’s been getting really humid lately. At work, the walls feel wet. It’s always cloudy. I had the day off today. I played my computer game. I rode my bike some. For dinner I had pizza. Tomorrow I go back to work. Q. Is the humidity inconvenient? How do you deal with it? Q. Tell me about a day you remember.
My cat knows what time it is. She expects me to take her out in the morning. We will go to a cafe. But first I need to put my computer in my backpack and finish my breakfast. At the cafe, I study and she sleeps in my backpack. We do that until lunchtime. It was a very peaceful time. Q. What do you do after you wake up? Q. Tell me about someone you know well.
