Free Write #1

I would do a lot with a million dollars. First I would put as much money as i needed in my college account (about $200,000) so that i could go to absolutely any college that i could afford and that would accept me. Then I would give about $100,000 to my parents for monthly expenses like food insurance, utility bills, and cell phone bills. Then I would pledge monthly donations to various charities for about $10,000 for a year or so. Then i would save about $100,000 and put that money in the bank for future needs like cars and apartment payments once i get out of college. Then i would invest in a new piano and baritone because my are well used and in need of replacing. Then I would buy that extremely expensive pastel colored outfit that I've been wanting from the mall and match it with a white Coach purse. I would also replace my ominous desk and television and upgrade to a smaller more organized white desk and a new flat screen T.V. Finally, I would use the rest of my money for my dream vacation to Australia and New Zealand. I would go and rent a house on the coast of the Great Barrier Reef. I would also rent my own private yacht to take me across the ocean. While there on my 2 week vacation I would visit the Sydney opera house, snorkel in the Great Barrier Reef, hike through the outback, and buy lots of souvenirs for friends and family. Having a million dollars to do all these things would be truly wonderful.

Welcome Response

I absolutely love blogging. I watched Alli and Alese set up their accounts since i didn't have a computer so it was easy to start my own account and write my very first blog! I'm only curious about one thing. I read the directions on the back to make my blog more secure but I still can't find the link on the website to get there. I think that we can incorporate our blog into class by making part of our blog about our SSR book, Class Novel, or Read Aloud book. This way we won't have to spend as much time on discussing the book in class and you can have what we say about today's reading in our blog as a reference. For our next free write, we should describe our favorite memory using as many adjectives as possible and use at least 5 adjectives that are less common describing words like taste, feel, hear, and emotions.
