Why I write

Posted by Tyler Creighton in English 2 - Pahomov on Thursday, October 20, 2011 at 1:16 pm

Honestly I don't know why i write. I write sometimes to show expression, I write to feel something , I wrote to get a thought away from me and out of my head and down on paper. Sometimes when i write it explains the crazy jungle jumble i call my mind. But at times I absolutely have to be forced to write.It's just not in my category. I write to see my thoughts as a movie or a book , when I write it explains me. 

The first time i felt like a writer had to be in the 7th grade.I entered in a essay contest. The contest was about who has the best written essay out of the city of philadelphia. The essay "Does the new President of the united rates inspire you , why ?" Was the best essay i have ever written. I won first place in the entire city. This is the moment i felt superiors to all man kind. i felt like I was the best writer ever and all i had to do was clear my jungle jumble mind and express my self in the best way I could. Which is why I write in expression....

Why do we write?

Posted by Aidan Rios in English 2 - Pahomov on Thursday, October 20, 2011 at 1:15 pm

Hm, writing? Why do we write? What is “writing?” what are we writing about? What inspire us to write where does writing come from? Writing is that thing that people jot down on paper, walks, grounds, computers, hands just about any solid object that you can think About can be written on. We can write about just about anything, stories, poems, riddles, jokes and notes just to remind you of other important things that happen. All you need is your mind, a pencil or writing utensils and a solid object to write on and write away. You can write the new masterpiece inspired by shakeshere. Or instructions on how to build something from the future to make people lives way easier. Writing is the base and foundation of everything from the pass, present and future. Without writing, life would be like French toast without the butter, the cheese fries without the cheese, the sea without the water. Life would be just one boring oblivion of boredom and sowwer. Without writing, there would be no more books, tools, inventions, poems, songs, music nothing just people wondering the earth with out no enjoyment what so ever. What, do you think, “oh, I don’t need writing, I’ll just turn on the TV and what my favorite show” or “I’ll just watch a movie” or “oh, ima just play my new Xbox game” You couldn’t! Writing is how all those things are created. If there’s no scrip, there’s nothing to become in theater nothing.

 

Who would teach the children the fascination of writing or the thrill that you get, the Goosebumps you get from reading stories and the mind numbing things you can learn from other people writing. The bible, history, science experiments done and famous mathematician that lived in life nothing. This world would be just so meaningless. Writing completes us we write for others, ourselves and just for fun. Writing is one of the most important things that Humans and possibly others can do…

Why Do I Write ?????

Posted by Juan Rivera in English 2 - Pahomov on Thursday, October 20, 2011 at 1:15 pm

Why do we write?
Question is why do we all write?
Why do people write down history?
Why do they write down names?
Why do we write down anything?

The truth is writing is a way people can write down there feelings and memorable moments that last for centuries, people have different ways of writing things also. Some people like to make it mysterious, others like to do action, and some just are weirdos and like to have a big imagination talking bout martians and monsters. But my point is, you don't need to be a perfect writer to write a book, a essay, or even a newspaper article. As long as you have a way of showing your feelings and telling people bout something just to send a message to them, then write. 

I like to write poetry, because to me there is a unlimited number of possible things to write about, Life, Drugs, and the most common known LOVE. Poems don't typically have to rhyme, just as long as the people around you can understand the mural you are trying to get through. But in my choice i like to make it rhyme because it sounds more catchable and more people would want to read it if it rhymed. 


Everyone writes for a reason, let your reason be known and write something. Even if its a letter or a song write it and let people know you can write.

Why I write?

Posted by Sarena Shuman in English 2 - Pahomov on Thursday, October 20, 2011 at 1:15 pm

Why I write?
 Ha! Is that even a question.
My pen caresses my paper in a slow gentle way.
 The way my sweaty palm grips my pen, making a permanent mark on my ring finger.
 The smell of fresh lined paper, it's aroma makes me all tingly inside.
Why I write?
 I write because  my mind is my resource, my mind hold my feelings, and my mind is my pen.
Why I write?
The words just stumble on the paper in a jolly kind of way, they don't care if it's a sad story or not.
They just happy they can help me express how I really feel.
Why I write?
 When I write, the world stops and all I see is my paper and my pen.
The tip of my pen touch the blue line on the white track and it's off.
Why I write?
I write because I can be myself, and don't have to act a certain way, it's me and my pen.
​Why I write?
Ha! Is that even a question.
Why you write?

I Write... Beacuse

Posted by Zakee Jones in English 2 - Pahomov on Thursday, October 20, 2011 at 1:14 pm

There are many different reason why I write not just because school thinks it mandatory or I will need in the world I write because some thing i feel like in life should not be said but written. And what I mean by this is some people have a hard time trying to say what they want so they write it down or take note on it. Some people even write letters to some one they like or love because they’re too afraid to say it. But for me writing has just been one of those things that I know am going to need in my life so I want to get better at doing it all the time. Some times writing douse things talking can’t, like when you send some one a letter from another part of the world. It also plays important part in history. Most things that are found out in the world are recorded   and document on paper so the next generations can under stand. What am trying to get at is that writing is important to our society help in many was and it is evolving every day. There are many people in the world that can’t read or write. It wouldn’t matter if it was English or Spanish the point is people who cant write most likely will not be able to survive in the world. It sad to hear but I hope it comes a time when all people will be able to understand each other not just by talking but also writing.

The Reason I Write

Posted by Jordan Hairston in English 2 - Pahomov on Thursday, October 20, 2011 at 1:14 pm

​~Many other reasons I write is because I want to document my place in this world. I hope that one day-even though I won’t be a famous poet- someone will look back at my notes and lyrics and be inspired. I want others to feel the way I feel every time I read a award winning novel. Every time I read The Twilight Saga and every time I make a song. I write for expression of inspiration. I write cause of my dreams, so you can dream of me.

Why I Write

​Why do I write? 

I write because it is a peaceful yet powerful way of expressing myself. I write because I have to write in order to pass in school. I write because I enjoy it, and the satisfaction it gives me to write something I feel strongly about. I write because there are somethings that shouldn't be spoken. I write because it can give other people joy. 

Writing can do many things for not just you but for other people too. 

It can change an opinion, it can give people ideas, it can guide them to the next step, it can do a lot of very beneficial things for our minds and bodies. 

Writing is significant because it can be traced back. 

Without people writing we would never know some famous stories or learned about some incredible events. Writing can give you the big picture, the the background information, and the little details in between. Writing can tell people the story of their family, their religion, their history. Writing can turn into anything. You can turn it into a song, or a poem. Writing above all is a core to our society.

#WhyIWrite. Jtartaglia

Posted by Joseph Tartaglia in English 2 - Pahomov on Thursday, October 20, 2011 at 1:14 pm

The reason i write is so people can understand any thing that I can't come up with on the spot. Like if i need to explain something to some one i could just write it down and they could read it at their own pace instead of me explaining it too fast to them and them not getting the right idea and do something wrong. Because you can all way look back at what someone or yourself wrote down. You might forget the things you sometimes say but if it's written down you can read it and remember to do something like take the task to the curb, or take the dog out for a walk. but writing isn't just for when yo need to remember something it could also be for if you have no other way to express how you feel you can write it down and it would relive the person's stress. writing also can be for entertainment reasons like for a play or for a movie you write for just about anything. you write in every class you are in. you write to keep notes and and keep track of score

WHY DO I WRITE ?

Posted by Michael Hall in English 2 - Pahomov on Thursday, October 20, 2011 at 1:13 pm

I write not only to fill the void of creative feeling in me. I write not only to inspire others but my inner self. Those reasons are not what they are but they mean and they mean what i write. The foundation of life is originality for without that there would be no other creatures. The wolf would be looking for cows and the snakes would be playing with mice but no thats a message. We are not like the things of this world and for that we create our own language. We use these scribbles we call letters to express a  in one bottling up to  pure chaos but that is not in humans personas. No we are creatures of force so we force the fabric of time into our hands hoping that time doesn't pass of by , but thats all a part of the great race of the races i do not win but lose. see i do not run but i walk thinking about the next step in the future for when it comes to it all we can do is think and wonder. My children's hands will be mine incarnate opening feeling the stroke of a pen a wait in the dirt hoping that one day a feathers mark will appear on the sun and the world will not be many but one. Our ideals will morphs into a creature of pure insight and we shall not try to despise this being but become part of it. For in the dark there is always a ray of light waiting for you to seize it but not with a holding mine but with a open heart. The essence of writing is not set in stone but it at least can be written on it. All you have to do as the creator of this piece is imagine your life as a ship on the ocean and you see your horizon line. Writing is not a action but a gift from god. thats why i write.

"Why I Write"

Posted by Tamatha Lancaster in English 2 - Pahomov on Thursday, October 20, 2011 at 1:13 pm

I write to tell my stories
So people know my life.
I write to show how I feel
Whether I'm happy or sad.
I write so I can share who I am,
What I do, and what I like.
I write because it's what I do best

I write to get my point across.
I write to communicate with others,
Because sometimes it's hard for to say aloud.
I write because that's what I normally do
I write to talk about the people I love
No matter who it is, 
Whether it's my family or friends.
But most of all I write,
Because I'm me.
