Emma Perry Mod 5 10/11/11 “I am from...”

I am from my first game console to my fist defeated game in 3 days. I am from long hours at night finishing my latest novel, finishing a movie, or just doodling in my journal.

I am from Harry Potter, Eragon, and green riders, And reading fantasies and wishing I could join the heroin.

I am from the snap of the stirrup as I get ready to ride away from myself and the world, And knowing when to come back to the real world.

I am from the smell of crushed pine needles on the cold forest floor and From gobbling my grandmother’s warm apple pie with cold ice cream

I am from science fiction shows and movies And endless **//__Sliders__//** marathons.

I am from fairy tales and bloodthirsty pirates. I am from pretending to capture the “ship” in the back yard.

I am from 3 hours of Muppets dancing their hearts out. And Jim Henson’s puppets dancing, singing, and cracking jokes.

I am from “Em”, “Emmy”, “Sleeper”, “Perry the platypus”, and “Bookworm”. And I am from constant bickering with my sisters about the names.

I am from learning from and living with my mistakes And living a fun and happy life
