Project Proposal with Rubric out of 100 points:
Im am going to cover alot of various genres. Maybe a poem one day, a diary entry another day, and other genres like recipies, timelines, etc. Almost like out multigenre project but about my life, expieriences, hopes, dreams, goals, etc. A good way to grade my work is to grade the amount of content, and creativeness.. I'm not sure how else to grade it..

Due at the End of Class on 4/22:

Awkward moments; How i hate awkward moments.
My heart beats fast, drops into my stomach,
I get nervous, i get paranoid.
Almost everyday i have an awkward moment,
whether it be with an ex boyfriend, an ex bestfriend,
someone i havnt talked to since elementry school,
or being intoduced to a complete stranger.
I wish i didn't have awkward moments,
I wish i didnt hate awkward moments,
I wish my heart didnt beat fast, drop into my stomach,
I wish i didnt get nervous, get paranoid
But almost everyday i have an awkward moment.
Whether it's an old friend, or a complete stranger.

I wrote my ex bestfriend a letter today, i'm not sure why.
It's not like she will even care, so it was a waste of time.
Dear Diary, please help me find the right words to say
Because i'm stuck in the past and I want it back today.
I'm sick of apologizing when I wasn't wrong
Someday i will have to suck it up and stay strong
But its hard when no ones there,
And it's worse when no one cares,
I wrote my ex bestfriend a letter today, i'm not sure why.
It's not like she will even care, so it was a waste of time.
Dear Diary, please help me find the right words to say,
Because i'm stuck in the past and i want it back today.
I'm sick of being pushed around,
I left my heart and pride on the ground,
When i fall, i fall hard, and i can never let it go
When will it stop? No one knows.
I'm sick of apologizing when I wasn't wrong
Someday i will have to suck it up and stay strong
But its hard when no ones there,
And it's worse when no one cares,
I wrote my ex bestfriend a letter today, i'm not sure why.
It's not like she will even care, so it was a waste of time.
Dear Diary, please help me find the right words to say,
Because i'm stuck in the past and i want it back today.

Wait, who is the "she" in the second and last lines? My question is, did you send it to him? Your writing is like a hook, it hurts, but it draws you toward it.
-Edited-
It makes sense now, but I still agree with my earlier statments. You should just make a book of these, if you write one everyday, just put them in order, send them to a publishing company, and get rich. Then you can be eating $200 a scoop ice cream while writing this cutting poetry. I will buy that book, even if I have to not eat lunch for a month to buy it.

Ignorant to the feelings of others
She didn't care, as i expected,
I never set high expectations,
I never set high expectations,
It makes me so mad i don't even want to write about it,
how could someone be so heartless?
someone i gave everything to whether it
be materialistic or my heart, my pride.
this was my last attempt to try,
i give in, i give in,
what else do you want from me?
you know ill give it up
im just one phone call away,
as it said in the letter,
don't sweat it, don't sweat it,
i know you're thinking about it,
you want it back so bad,
but you're too stubborn,
you're trying to prove a point,
but what is your point,
please tell me, please tell me,
i still wont understand,
just know, you won't always have me
in the palm of your hand.
i'm over it, i'm over it,
yeah, it still hurts,
but i can't keep letting these things
distract me from what is really important right now,
i shake my head, i shake my head,
and if i am to die in the near future,
it'd be wrong for you to attend,
because it's your fault, your fault,
just accept it,
but like i said don't sweat it,
i never set high expectations,
i give in, please tell me,
i'm over it, i shake my head
i still won't understand,
just know, you wont always have me
in the palm of your hand.

I can't seem to read your work aloud. I feel like I'm stepping on the soul that you've poured out for your readers, aww screw it, I'll be self centered in my comment, for me to read. Your work is like a river, a river that makes me want to dive in, and drown. Drowning in this writing would leave me content.
