Assignment#18:My Poem


It's getting colder now,
the darkness seems to be consuming her.
Slowly, destroying her inside.
A feeling that is hard to ignore
A feeling that can't seem to leave her
She disguise's her feeling's with silly little lies,
If she spoke too much could be said,
so she rather keep's it all bottled up.
Perhaps you'll never find out,
the emotions she kept in secret.
It will all be left a mystery.
But for now, she's going to smile, she's going to laugh,
she's going to keep pretending
like nothing has ever gone wrong.

Assignment#19:My Very Short Story


In a small village,located in one of the most wealthiest places in the world lived a young girl named Maya.Maya did not fit in with the other people in this town,reasons were she was not wealthy like everyone else.Maya came from a poor family, since they had very little money,Maya would always get picked on at school and by the people in her community.Though she was strong,strong as a warrior she did not care if she was not as wealthy as all the others, all she cared about was on making her dream's come true. Maya always dreamed on becoming a famous celebirty just like the one’s she saw on t.v.People would always say her dreams would never come true ,that she was not good enough to become something big and popular,nethier did she have enough beauty nor talent.

She never let comment's bring her down,she would always block them from her bubble and besides they did not mean much to her.The only things that mattered to her was her family and what they really thought about her.Although her parents thought her dream was silly, that perhaps it was something that was not going to come true.Maya never knew about her parents point of view,she thought they supported her in everything she planned on doing to become something successful.Like any other,Maya needed to go to college if she planned on making her dream come true.But she knew to get a well education she needed money,and all the schools around her village were the one's you had to pay.

Therefore she had no money she bearly had enough money to afford a pair of shoes.Maya then thought,maybe everyone was right she had no future ahead of her.Her mother saw her burst into tears and asked her what was wrong,she had no response to her mother.Later that day Maya decided to take a walk through the city,to take things of her mind.The city was one of her favorite places to be in because she felt like she was wealthy.

Their was many brand stores, brand new cars and everything seemed to shine in her sight.As she walked through the city she imagined how great it would be to have money.She stoped at a food stand ,where she always bought chocolate,though Maya called them "the lucky bars".Reasons were everytime she bought a chocolate bar good things happened to her,she would find money in the ground or get a ride back home and to her it was a big deal.That day Maya had a good feeling about buying a chocolate,she thought to herself perhaps something good will come in her way.As she bought the chocolate Maya noticed a bulletin board across the street from the stand.

She started walking towards the bulletin board she had never seen before.As she approached to the board she spotted a bright yellow paper with stars around it.She quickly teared it of the board and began reading it.This paper was a contest for who ever sent a letter with a story of their own,they would have the chance to meet Beyonce in person and get a money reward of $100,000.Maya ran home quickly,she was so excited maybe if she joined the contest she would win.When she got home Maya began to laugh of nervous and happiness.

She showed her mother the paper and thought she could have a chance.Maybe she would be a lucky contestant and win.That day Maya sent a letter with her story to the address on the bulletin hoping she would receive something back.Maya waited patiently the following days.Then,couple of days later Maya received a letter in the mail.She had a response from the contest,this letter said she had won.

Maya jumped up and down of joy she was happy then ever now she would make her dream come true,and she was going to meet Beyonce in person.Her family was very proud of her they felt like hipocrits thinking negative about the whole dream Maya had.They belived everything was possible,you just have to try your hardest therefore you could go beyond your succes.Maya enrolled in one of the art studios therefore she was on her way to prepare herself for her future sucess on becoming a celebirty.
