Reflections - 12 - creative writing

Cutting up newspaper task 

When cutting up the news paper me and leanna decided to create a new cover for the newspaper and this was the result. 

Point at a line in the news paper and make a story from it task 

Luiz's rocket kick was another frustration. 

Luiz smith was an average boy from sweeden, however, in his early teens luiz developed a strange skill. His legs, all though apear thin and fimble have the power to kick at rocket speed. 

You may be thinking, that sounds like a fun skill to have but, luiz cannot control it. His legs spazum out at random occasions and has caused him to kick his friends, his car and a cow into outer space. 

Astronauts are trying to retrieve the items but there are some fears that they have blown up when leaving the atmosphere. 

read it back wards, pick out a phrase, write a story about that phrase. 

Astronauts space out into cow. 

It had been 3 days and 17 hours since i left the space station. All though i am glad to be home there is something quite unsettling about being back on this plannet. The green grass i missed so fondly when in space seemed to be so dull and life less now compared to the vast colours of the solar system, and the air. The air down here seems so heavy and dense its like i am unable to breath. I need to get out of this place, its like i am suffocating in a pit of isolation. Nothing is ever going to make me feel so free again.

5 days have now past and my longing to go back has only grown stronger. I just miss the feeling so much, being up there, well it was bliss.  Id kill to feel the weightless of floating around the space station or hear the familiar beep of mission controls radio. I just feel like out there, there is so much to see and explore, here is such a small corner of one planet and im wasting my talent sitting her roaming to the supermarket and back. 

one week home and im starting to settle in. I still have the on going feeling of gloom but today i was paid a visit by an old friend. Sarah, I had missed her more  than i could ever miss the space station. She is probably my only reason for keeping me sane. I still remember the first day i met here, the way here eyes sparkled when she saw the rocket for the first time and the way her space suit fit her curves perfectly.  I am so happy to see her again, nothing can make me feel better than the way she held me hand and prommised me everything will be all right. 

after 13 days of being at home, i thought this feeling would pass. Sarah came back to visit me again today and she told me that this feeling of gloom was normal. She re assured me that every ex astronuat feel like this. After spending a few hours browsing the internet we came across an article. ' New trial drug to beat post travel depression.' This was enligting to read, that it is not just me, not just the astronuts but 100s of other people around the world who cannot feel at a passion any more. 

i may have only been home for 2 weeks, but they said that my slump of depression and longing for outer space again was so intense that they would but me straight on  the drug trial. I have just taken my first pill, and i feel so ecstatic, there is now word to describe how beautiful the world looks today,  i no longer miss space as this place is like every high i have ever been on all at once, it is like i have found utopia. I am so ecstatic right now and this is all thanks to sarah, i think im in love with her. I need to marry that woman, in fact im going to ask her right now. 

day since i left the space station .... un known .  I have just about managed consciousness to write this log. I do not know where i am. I do not know what is going on, all i am aware of is this is not utopia as all i feel now is an ache from head to toe its like ive been hit by a truck or something. I wish sarah was here. 

its been 26 days since i left the space station and i have spent 11 of those in hospital so far. I am starting to feel a little better now, that may be all the pain killers i am taking though. As much as i miss space i have now learnt why you should never take experimental drugs. Sarah came to vist me today, she told me that the drugs company had been arrest for attempted genicide and i was lucky to be alive. she had also filled me in on what has been happening for the last 11 days. She told me she had no idea where i was trying to get to but she found me lying in the middle of a field unconscious after being hit by a cow and that pushed me into a mild coma. I have no recollection of this happening or anything else that happened whilst i was on the drug but as i look back through my notes i was made aware of my plans to marry sarah. She has not mentioned this too me so im guessing that the cow got to me before i could get to her. I wish i had told sarah how i felt about her how ever i fear there will not be an appropriate time to do so now as she is moving away. 

day 33, i miss sarah more than the space station now. I hope one day we shall meet again but i doubt we will. I feel to empty right now to continue this log, i feel to empty right not to continue my life never mind this log. I have lost my only friend and my passion for life and i feel i have to move on from it.
