I really enjoyed the free write today on the "50 years from now..." I started writing my paper as a story but wasn't able to finish it all. Here's a little bit of my free write...
I wake up feeling sore and extremely tired. I stand up to go to the mirror as I always do to wash my face, when I realize that it is not me. My face lokos worn down and my hair isn't a black shiny color. I notice wrinkles that I hadn't seen before on my face. Questions are running through my head. "Where's my Mom, Dad, sisters, Daisy, and Mason?" I'm so confused and I instantly break down into tears. I run outside and don't see any type of nature. All I see are buildings with skyscrapers. I become so terrified! All I want is to see my family. I start walking back to my bedroom and see that my television looks different. Everything is out of the screen, it looks as if it isn't even a television. "Monday, December 13th, 2050." states the T.V announcer. "50 years?!" I start running around the house looking and shouting for Mason. I assumer he has to be here somewhere. He always comes over by this time in the evening. I walk around the corner and suddenly I see him. I tiredly run towards him and hug him tightly. I instantly start sobbing hysterically asking him questions that could literally fill up the room. When I finally stop sobbing, he looks at me very confused.
And that is as far as I got. But I really enjoyed writing this and thinking about how life is going to be so different 50 years from now.
