Our assignment in creative writing today was to look at something and come up with 10 different images that you could find on it. I chose my hands, which was not smart. So, all day I was intently staring at my hands and eventually I was angrily staring at my hands. I know what your thinking, "didn't you just make a cartoon about mountains on your hands?" and yes I did, which is why I thought this might be easy. And it was easy, once I stopped trying to make sense and started writing random, creative thoughts. Here is what I finally figured out:
- There are many mountains, creating avalanches that crush your body and soul. (Palms)
- There is a fierce battle between the waves and the surfers, the waves ate the surfers. (Finger prints)
- A heartbroken centipede is desperately trying to become a butterfly, to no avail. (Scar 1)
- A desolate cloud is wandering towards the edge. (My fingernail)
- Withered crops are yearning for love and air. (My wrinkles on my knuckle)
- The pink confetti swirls in a tornado of joy. (???)
- A giant bouncy house is filled with bunnies. (???)
- A crater on mars (Scar #2) is erupting with Twinkies. (???)
- A giant talking cow is spilling my secrets and his milk. (lunch milk carton)
- A spidery robot is breaking out of prison. (My veins)
I think that exercise went very well.

Well, you did better than I ever would have. When I look at my hands, all I think about is money (because the creases in my hand make a "M" which I have always associated with money) lol
Well, when it is mandatory to make 10, you get creative. Besides, my friends helped me.
