Quick Write

In Room 9 we do Quick writes where Miss Fisher writes a starting sentences on the board and we choose which one we want to start with and write a quick write on it. Here is my one I wrote:

Hiding under my bed, i'm petrified. I think they are still downstairs. I was just watching tv in my room when I heard a smash downstairs and a heavy footsteps. I quickly jumped off my bed and turned off the TV, I dived under my bed, daring not to breathe. I heard them open a drawer, the slow creak of the hinges. I'm crying now i'm going to die. I'm just hoping the drawer they opened was the glass one, just wanting a drink.

They are coming up the stairs now. Well probably running, his footsteps are going as fast as my heartbeats. They are in my room now. Under my bed I can see their shoes as they walk around my room looking for valuables, Then the worst thing happened. Ahh ahhh ahh CHOOOO. I'm dead. I see them stop and make their way over to my bed. I see a face peeking under the duvet, a man's face. He has a long white beard and mustache covering most of his face, his eyes are a shade of dark green and his head is completely bald. He grabs my legs pulls me out of my hiding place, I grip the carpet trying to pull myself forward so I can grab onto the bed legs. But i'm not strong enough, he has a firm grip on my ankles which I can't shake off.

As I am pulled from under my beloved bed I see something which makes my heart drop. A gun. He is holding a gun. To my head. He starts shouting something at me but i'm not listing all I can think about is my family and everything i'm going to miss here on earth. I wait for the bang but nothing comes. Maybe he's not going to shoot me, maybe he's just trying to scare me. I keep an eye on his finger on the trigger which is moving closer ever so slowly and he still continues to shout at me. Closer and closer it goes till I swear it should be pushing it down by now. He stops yelling at me and says some words which I can just catch “ Hey what does this weird trigger thing do?” I see the lights.

Rap By Ruby S and Lola

In room 9 Lola and I made a rap about change makers for homework, this is it:

READY FOR CHANGE

Recently I’ve got a feeling that something ain’t right
I’ve been living my life and just holding on tight
I’ve been struggling through the days to reach the long winter nights
And the time has come to make a change

It feels like everything in life is a race
With everyone expecting to come in first place
But I’m stopping running now to do an about face
I’m making a stand to make a change

Cause I’m not designed like some machine
That goes no matter what when the light turns green
If you think about this, you’ll know what I mean
It’s time to pull over and make a change

The thing that stops us changing is irrational fear
That people won’t like us when these changes appear
But good friends when we change will always be near
So don’t be afraid make a change

When you think things need to happen make a move
Get your life bouncing to a different groove
We are the change makers the boys and girls in our youth
The world is ours to make a change.
