I saw many kids pass by. The gym was packed with happy kids playing. I saw different coloured trees around me and different coloured leaves. The clouds were moving each time I stared up at the sky. The sky was a bright white and a soft grey. I saw yellow and white flowers scattered across the green grass. I saw many houses around me. About four rubbish bins surrounded me. As I looked beside me I saw the poles, ropes and the net from the volleyball net. I saw the canteen and many classrooms.
As people walked past the leaves crunched from their feet from walking over them. I could hear yelling from the gym. My friends watch was ticking as time passed by. The pens were eagerly tapping on and off the table. Sound of screeching and stomping shoes came echoing from the gym. Birds flew past singing their songs and saying their greetings. “ tweet tweet’. I squished the mud with my feet “squish”. People stepped in puddles. “ splash!”. Kids walked past bushes “hussles”.
I breathed through my nose and smelt fresh air. The dampness shot through my nose. The best part was smelling the butter chicken wraps from the canteen making me happy.
Cool 'Setting Description' Bijou. When I read all your descriptions it made me feel like I was in the same setting too! I could imagine the sound of your friends watch ticking, stomping of shoes, the colour of the sky, and the smell of butter chicken wraps from the canteen. Isn't it amazing how certain smells can take you to a happy place?! The sound of a lawn mower and smell of cut grass takes me back to when I was about 6 years old, swinging on my swing outside while my dad mowed the lawns around me. It makes me happy still all these years later. Maybe when you are older you will smell something that reminds you of butter chicken wraps from college, and it will transport you to that happy place and memories of your first year at college?
ReplyDeleteWell done Bijou. You had such wonderful descriptive writing about this setting. My favourite line is "i breathed through my nose". Just because it also gives a sense of being calm in this place. Great job.
