Prompt:
Everyone sees the world very differently. To someone from Alaska, Maryland might be considered a desert! Think about the importance of point of view and imagine that you are someone, or something, else. Finish the prompt below:

You are not you. You are a foreigner, an alien, an object, or an animal plopped down on ______ Road right outside of ______ High School. Describe what you see as if you have no idea what you are looking at.

MY WRITING:
My species are called "Feel the Beards". I see giant things on top of round things that spin zooming by at great speeds, faster than I can run. I see a red and blue building with these things that walk on two legs. They are loud and seem to travel in packs. The packs seem to have some sort of social hierarchy that I can't figure out. There is some sort of writing on a big square thing. The writing changes every so often. It says different thing but I don't know what it says. It must be some sort of communication device that the two-legged things use. The two legged things don't seem like they want to be here that much and I want to leave this loud place almost immediately.
This was an English Assignment that I did and I am very proud of the outcome.
"feel the beard" is an inside joke with my english 12 Honors class. Our teacher basically uses it to tell us we need more detail.
