Best Days of 101

Peace

One of my favorite blogs I have written was called Peace. I wrote it on January 13, 2006 about one of my worst days that I had in a long time. I really like this piece because every time I read it, I re-live the stress that I went through, but when I get to the end, I feel the peace that I felt that day. I think I did well expressing my feelings, and showing the readers how I felt and make them feel the same thing. One of my favorite lines is “I laid down on the soft couch with my cozy blanket and just smelled the delicious smell of cinnamon fill the air, while soft, romantic music was playing in the background.” When I read this I imagine my self under that soft cozy blanket in that candle lit room and I just re-live it in my mind again and again.

Peace
It was a very hard day. I was awake ever since 5:30 am and had two tests that day. As the bell finally rang at 2:10, it brought a sign of relief to me that my school day was over, but unfortunately, it reminded me that I had to rush to work. As I walked into the office, my eyes were fixed at my desk where huge stacks of papers were piled up. I felt like crying. A had a million things to do in three hours. I couldn’t take it. Half way through my shift, I got a very disturbing headache. I took a break but that wasn’t very much help. I couldn’t wait to get home. When I finally did, I took some medicine, and ate my delicious dinner in silence. I was really happy to finally be home and have nothing to do. No to-do lists, no ringing phones, no tests. Peacefulness, that’s all there was. I turned of the lights everywhere, and lit some candles. I laid down on the soft couch with my cozy blanket and just smelled the delicious smell of cinnamon fill the air, while soft, romantic music was playing in the background.
