Week #5

Journal Writing:

If you learned you would die in a few days, what regrets would you have? Were you given five extra years of life, could you avoid those same regrets five years later?

Can you envision how you are likely to look back upon the things you are doing today? If so, how much do you try to live now as you think you will one day wish you had lived?

How does this relate to what is happening in the Gulf Oil Spill?

Poetry Prompt:

This week you may write a poem about any topic you wish. There must be use of the five senses within the writing. There must be at least one use of a metaphor/simile. The poem must be at least 25 lines.
