Writing Circle Pieces

My writing pieces, topics were chosen by writing circle group. Enjoy!

PS3 vs, Xbox

Author's Note:Some many people have been asking me " Which is better? The ps3 or the Xbox? well we all have our opinions. here is mine

As my research shows, the ps3 is better because it has free internet unlike the Xbox, on the Xbox you have to pay for the internet. Also, the ps3 has way better graphics then the Xbox. On the Xbox, the graphics can sometimes get really fuzzy but on the ps3, the graphics are clear and sharp. Furthermore, the ps3 has a lot more gigabytes for memory than the Xbox does. In addition, the ps3 can play blue-ray DVDs unlike the Xbox which can't play DVDs at all Lastly, from experience the controller is way easier to handle.

My Made Up World

Author's Note: Everyone I know has a made up world. Most made up worlds are created to fit the needs of its creator, but alas, we all know that these worlds can only be thought of and my never come true so we can only dream.

In my made up world I wouldn't have anything educational, no schools, no books, just comics, no teachers and nothing educational. I would have all of the food in the world and kids could eat anything they wanted we would never run out of food. There would be no parents to boss us around but if kids wanted parents would be able to visit from time to time but only if the kids wanted. There would be amusement parks everywhere the rides would be free and so would food. The laws of my made up world would be one don't bully others even if you don't like them two Don't be greedy and three Have Fun!

Haunted House

Author's Note: People think that haunted houses are scary but when I went to a haunted house I found that sometimes the monsters aren't as scary as they seem.


When I went to a haunted house in Milwaukee I thought it was the scariest one I had been to, but as I was nearing the end I came across a slasher and to my surprise he spoke, "Brittany?" I was terrified, how did he know my name? He then took his mask off and I burst out laughing. It was my cousin, Felix! We were both laughing and hugging each other saying hi and everything. He then decided to walk me out of the haunted house so I wouldn't have to go through the rest of the house.

Scariest Dream

Author's Note: Almost everyone has a scary dream. Most of them consist of scary monsters chasing them or them being locked in rooms and cannot escape. They also formulate around your greatest fear. This is dream is mine.


The scariest dream that I have every had would have to be when I was six years old, I was stuck in a warehouse with a bunch of other kids, some my age and some older. We had come up with a plan to escape; we were going to have all of the older kids try to reach the keys to unlock the gate door. Once we got the keys we made sure the old man was sleeping and we all ran outside. Once we got outside we found out there was a very large fence. All of us tried to get over it, some of the older kids many it over but, the rest of us couldn't. We were all so weak from not eating, then the warehouse doors opened. I then woke up from the sound of my own door opening.

How do you feel?

Authors note: Every song you listen to has a different feeling to everyone. One song could seem happy or sad or depressing.

When I listen to my favorite song "Space Bound" I always feel so light like I'm in space. Always so calm. For most songs they are really happy and uplifting for others they can be very sad. There are many genres of music, all have a different effect on a person. When you listen to a song what do you feel?

Point of view

Author's Note: Many items are written about in books, but people don't take the time to think about them or what happened to them. Have you ever wondered about what happens to the little items that were in a book?

Hello! I am your average pile of money and I have traveled far and wide to end up in your pocket. First, I am made in a machine in a faraway place. Second, I am shipped off to different places ,mostly banks, and traded for checks and different currency. Although I may seem like an ordinary pile of money, I am very special because I am going to take a long journey to a very special place.

My journey began in a purse. It was very dark in there, the only time I saw light was when a woman with dark hair opened the purse and reached in and took out different things. I thought I would be in there forever, but one day the woman reached in and took me out! I was so excited! I was finally going to get used! I looked at the woman, she looked like she was in a hurry. She then took a very pretty box and very gently put me in it. I was so very scared so I looked around for peephole. I finally found one and it looked like we were heading for a very large tree.

I waited for about two days before a young girl came and opened up the box and took me out. She then raced out the door and bought an ice cream and that where my journey ended and now here I am. In a cash register just laying here hoping that one day, I will go on another journey.

Favorite Food and Drink

Author's Note: Everyone has a favorite food and drink. Like for food it could be pizza or pasta and for drink it could be Sprite or
Cherry coke. What is your favorite food and drink?

I have to say, it is very hard to choose a favorite food considering how much food there is in the world but if I did have to choose then I would pick lasagna because ever since I was little my brother made it for me and I never got sick of it. The reason I like it so much is because of all of the chesses, the captivating noodles and the well done meat inside. My favorite drink would have to be a Sherly Temple. A Sherly Temple is a mix of Sprite and Grenadine (cherry flavored soda) I like this drink because it is caffeine free so if I drink it, I won't get all hyped up.
