Journal Entry (story)
Hi again Journal,
It’s me. So I’m actually here under some.. uh.. odd circumstances… I’m currently stuck in a bus. There was this huge awful accident on I-80. There’s so many buses and cars piled up from what I can see. Firefighters are here but I’m not sure how long until they’ll get here. I’m not really injured. Bumps and Bruises. My heads bleeding a little bit but it’s nothing serious. I got lucky. Somehow everyone else on the bus got lucky too. No one on here died. Thank god. But I’m currently using my journal because I need to save my phone battery. I have no idea how long I’ll be stuck here. I’m pretty cold though. I hope it won’t be too long.
-insert cat doodles-
Honestly, I think my cat doodles are getting better. I actually had this idea a while ago; a comic book based from a cat’s view. It would be cute and funny. But I’m not sure I’d be able to do it cuz it seems hard to make a comic book. Speaking of cats, I can’t wait to get home to my kitty. Mom’ll take care of her if I don’t make it back before it’s her dinner time. Y’know maybe I should do my math homework in the mean time. … Or maybe not y’know?
I mean, the work is easy but I just don’t feel like it. I’ll do it tonight before I go to bed. It’ll be fineee.. Oh I think I hear the firefighters. That was shorter than I thought. Ok, well then, I guess I should pack up and get back to go.
See you soon, Lin
(~Author’s Note - Writing something like a journal entry was not entirely hard but not easy either. I attempted to write a journal entry from someone else’s pov. I wrote it like I occasionally write mine; quick, jumping from topic to topic, not very detailed. Honestly, in my opinion, this one isn’t very good. I really rushed it. Also this little section is mainly for me to criticize my writing and give notes.~)
