Every English period, 9MG have a little start up piece of writing to get us into the right mindset to start our work. My favourite piece of writing was when we were asked to write a 100 word story about anything ,but, we had to put in a few words in to make a bit hard for us. i made one about Spongebob and how i was in the story as a massive, awesome, cool guy in the story and how my only weakness was ice cream. it was still my favourite story to write ,but, what was really funny is that every one laughed and couldn't stop but they all taught i had a really good seance of humour.
