I have chosen this piece of writing to publish because I have used adjectives and verbs ( describing, doing ) words and as you can see I have highlighted them in RED.
I carefully printed the names on thirty invitations and placed them into envelope, I quickly put on my helmet, raced down to the post office, carefully put the envelopes into the box and raced home again. I was waiting and waiting for a reply. Two days go bye, I have thirty calls come in, and I couldn’t keep up with them they were just too fast for me. Mum and I were about to go shopping. Mum nudges me and eyes up dad’s wallet. I quickly slip my hand into dad’s wallet and grab a couple of twenty dollar bills. I tuck them into my pocket and jump into the car. I had done that so I could get some extra goodies for the party.
“Mum, can I get this many packets of chips and this many cans of coke. I frantically asked her.”
‘Ok, but that’s it.” Mum said angrily. We walk up to the checkout and it comes to a total of 500.01, mum is shocked.
“All that for a party. This is the only party you’re having for a whole year.” We travel home and set up for the big day and wait till eleven o’clock. The time at this point is 10:59.am, stare at the clock and watch it tick over and over again. The clock strikes eleven o’clock. The door is still shut no one is at my party.
“There probably late just wait ten minutes and see if anyone’s going to come” mum says to me. Quarter of an hour goes by and absolutely no one has turned up. I sit on the couch and cry. Mum starts to pack up the goodies. I cry for the rest of the day and eat my chocolate cake.
Sad story Alesha, but neat writing!!!!!
