Creative Writing #1

My First Draft
Title:

Fear is Temporary Regret is Forever
Image result for brave people crossing the river

Have you ever experience you were like an innocent kid.I have,Well kind of.I picked a piece of stick and write something on the ground.It was when I was in a Camp in Boyle River and I was waiting for my team to have an activity where we are together to go to a task.The light and the heat of the sun that awakened us and the weather that came to our body was too cold for us to come out.We are only two Filipino in our team and while we are waiting for some of our  colleagues were just looking at the view and  taking a picture toward the mountains and then I said to my friend that  I smell something bad around the plants surrounding us.Then when we are complete we started to walked and exploring different types of plant and while we are walking we also eat a small pack of raisin and red apple ready to be eaten and  we heard a loud sound of different birds and tide of water coming from the river.

Then we saw it.The two strong wire across the Boyle River  .Then I was like shocked because the risk and challenges is asked myself if I can do it ? and we all know that   it is really scary to go across that wire and then before I go to cross that river I have touched it before I go;The  very fresh freezing fantastic river ,and then we’re  expecting that we are going to cross the river by walking on it and by holding up in the wire.Then after that our leader said that we need to do it again and I was like; No way! Because it was really hurt in our hands,but we need to do it because it's a task and we need to do it also to go back to our lodge.

But I feel like a bomb streaked  lightning across the sky separating it into strips of black velvet.I had my eyes on the mountain and I only just feel the fresh air on my face and the wind blowing through my hair.That day made my feelings perfect and so comfortable.

Our leader yelled at me and said Go!Go!Go! You can do it.Then when I started to walk in that wire then that’s the time I feel very nervous then I said to myself  that I can do  just relax,focus and enjoy.When I am in the middle of the wire I feel very very nervous and just keep smiling even though I was like swinging and nearly to fall.Then when I  was at the end of the wire I said Yes!Yes! I did it.But I’m not still comfortable because I need to do it again but know I’m not afraid anymore because I know that I can do it again.

I started to walk along the wire and while I’m crossing the river the wire also slowly swinging.I said to myself that I will never do this again.When my turn is over Thank God I did it  then I said to my friend you can do it too.I said Yes!Yes!Yes! while removing the safety gear,I’m so happy to do it and then I change my mind that someday I will do this again and travel the world and explore myself.Maybe we  need to try it first before judging one thing.”No one in this world is cowardly maybe we are just afraid of something we have not been trying”.

I knew that I can survive whatever problem it is.I did what most brave people have done.Instead giving up on it why don’t you let it happened and face that problem,after that you felt good being a brave child of God.

  1. I like how you used a lot of descriptive words such as how you describe sky "the lightning across the sky separating it into strips of black velvet", and how you describe what you saw in the camp.
    I would suggest not to use too much "like" and "because", as it makes you drag your writing too much but other than that I liked your writing and I think you did pretty well. :)

  2. I really liked how you explained the way you felt while you were crossing the wired bridge, and while I was reading this it reminded me of the movie "300" were you will never know it until you try it, and that is what I loved in your story, and also if you could work on your grammar and use more stronger and effective words in your story to make it more engaging to the reader. :)
