My life as an animal.
My family and I lived in a cozy nest that kept us warm throughout the cold days, but the nest was becoming crowded with all my growing sisters and brothers. One afternoon, while mother went out searching for food, we kids were a bit squished, and got into a little fight. Apparently I was the unfortunate one who got shoved out of the nest. Little did I know what an adventure the day would become.

I had never been out of the nest. Mother had always warned us that it was dangerous in the outside world. But my curiosity grew and I thought to myself, " Since I am already out of the nest and it wasn't my fault that I got pushed out of the nest, I might as well have a look around before I go back ". I took a few brave steps away from my nest...then a few more...and before long, my home was out of sight and I found myself in the real world. I caught the fresh sense of the grass under my little feet. They felt soft and cozy, like a field of soft fur being planted onto the ground. As I walked a few steps more, I inhaled the sweet sense of flowers blooming in the garden. I had never smelled anything like it. My stomach started to growl and I knew I was hungry. I crawled down the road in search of food. There I found something that looked like an acorn. As I bit into it, it was hard and would not break. When I looked at it again, I realized I was biting into a brown rock. I threw the rock away and continued my journey, where I was determined to find food. A strong wind came blowing down the street, as I dig my claw into the earth to hold on to the ground. The earth was soft from last night's rain and a bit muddy too. I looked up at a tree that looked like a giant to me. I am not used to staring at a tree from its feet, since I'm always on top of it. A leaf floated down from the tree and landed on top of me. The leaf was huge compare to my small baby body. As I looked back down the road, I saw a large hole on the edge of the street. It looked like a tunnel, leading to a

    One day I decided to ditch out on my 3rd grade class, my teacher was being a complete phony, and go for a long pointless walk in the woods. Pretty soon, I came upon a house that looks like it could have been from a fairy tale, all perfect and what not. I cant tell you why, maybe because of complete boredom, but I knocked and no one answered. Something smelled good and I was goddamn hungry so I decided to take a quick peak and see what was cooking.…

    One day our local fire department got called to a grass fire. It was a pretty good size fire too. My mother and I had to take a cooler of ice cold water out to all the guys. At that point I knew I wanted to get in on the action. I recall telling my mother that I wanted to be out there putting the fire out and saving some of the owners’ property, rather than being on the side of the road handing out water. I wanted to be one of the ones that saved some land. The following week I had put my application in to join the fire department. The next month I got accepted to join. That was one of the happiest days of my life.…

    I was born today. My bones quarried at Rano Raraku near the northeast end of my homeland, Easter Island. My makers were small, with deep tawny skin that gleamed with moisture under the sun as they carved the gentle curves of my body. As I lay among the rock, an unmoving piece of stone that stretched across the land to the creatures that constructed me, I observed the thriving life around me. I was surrounded by trees, some whose unbranched bodies shot into the vibrant sky, their silky, lively leaves dancing in the warm wind that swept over me. Down at my laying level, grew a variety of small, round, leafy, thin, and sweet smelling plants, sprouting from the land like gifts sent from the fertile soil. From the moment at which I was carved from the earth, I was in awe of its beauty, which provided myself and the creatures around me with so much, taking nothing in return. My observations were interrupted as I felt my body lurch forward, and slide onto what I felt to be the dancing trees I had once perceived around me. Hundreds of the small creatures stood around me, noise exchanging between them moving quickly and frequently from their lips, disturbing the peaceful silence. We slowly moved forward, my body still shuddering over the slippery dead trees beneath me. I felt as if I could hear them whimpering. As we proceeded, I was overwhelmed by the exotic life that moved by me. Colors swirling through the air, growing from trees high and low, with branches sturdy and fragile, trunks thick and thin. Smells overwhelmed my buzzing senses; sweet, spicy, musky, sharp, eye watering. I watched the creatures as we passed these aromatic plants; rip brightly colored fruits from their branches—killing them without even a thought. We continued to march forward. The vibrant sky above me began to darken, and our pace slowed as we reached our seemingly final destination. Although I could not see through the darkness, I could still feel and hear. Something long…

    In the 2nd grade, I was living with my grandparents for the year as my current house was being built. Never had I been home alone either. But then, one day, I was instructed not to take the bus home from school, as my father had told me to stay at school. As my day went on, I had forgotten this detail. Therefore, when I got home there was nobody at the house. Crying, I started looking through the windows to see if maybe someone was inside, as I had no way inside. But then, when all hope had vanished. A cop drove very slowly past. My eyes widened and my heart started racing, as I frantically waved down the cop and explained my situation through tears. The cop was very kind and sympathetic. She gave me a hug as I cooled down. She took me to the police station as we waited for my parents. Her fellow co-workers gave me a tour around the police station. By that time, I had almost forgotten that I didn't even have my parents with me, when my grandma showed up to retrieve me. Running as fast as my little legs could carry me, I ran into her arms, and I never…

    As I sat there, playing, the door suddenly banged open. My mom stood there anxiously with fear in her chocolaty eyes. I knew something tragic had occurred for she never came home early. She grabbed my forearms and pulled me up with a jolt and snatched a plastic bag from the corner and stuffed what little clothes and toys I had in it. My own brown eyes were filled with tears, but I didn’t let them fall. She dragged me along as she moved and on her way out, she shut the door with a thunderous bang. Who would have thought that that was the last day I would ever see that little one room garage house again.…
