Leap Into Life
I just finished a major 8th grade project called the Bio Journal. It involved writing down the story of your life from the point of view of other people. Now, it wasn't my favorite project, but three months of work culminated when I turned in my manilla- folder cover with six (unique) entries, an introduction, and a conclusion. Now I can finally take a sigh of relief: no more Bio Journal! You'd think after three months of work, I'd have some really great stuff, slap it into a folder, and call it a day, right? No. As I sat at the kitchen table (desks are overrated)- listening to bad pop music- I had no idea what to write for the final entry: my life story according to me. I wasn't at a lack of ideas, no I had tons of those. But "how to bring together unrelated thoughts in a beautiful way?" I wondered. Then it hit me: a poem. So, yes, I wrote a poem. And after three weeks of trying to figure out how to do powerpoint and audio and all that stuff, I present to you: What I Carry with Me (the poem I turned in for my bio journal). *** Keep in mind that, you know, this video IS the property of Saltare Into Life, and although I have no idea how to copyright things, I will find you if you steal this and take you to court (probably representing myself)! ***
So finally, as I write this is at 9:08 PM, I propose my super important question to you: what do YOU carry around with you?
