By far, this was the most difficult assignment I have ever received. Funny thing is, I thought it would be easy. I learned that I use far too many uneccessary words that can be eliminated entirely. 

After working for three hours, this is what I came up with.
Awful, yes I know, but it's all I could create. 


Tweeted Poem:

It’s Fall
Today, I’m dancing and flipping.
Forever, I will be hydroplaning.
I thank God with glee.
It doesn’t get any better.

You’ll learn from childhood memories, in and out
swerving, back and forth.
So, just love already!

Forget hate, and
Return love.
Just Breathe. 

So shoes on,
left sometimes tripping.
Alive, 
Minute died,
Sold,

I saw the last stars.
People kid,
How about the need to ever live?

The lanes to home,
a month ago,
almost first, but than twice,
open, 
was the almost, greatest miss
between Fall’s place that is fun darkness.

Put tonight’s scary thing away,
A leaf was just to be loved.

Childhood home sold about a month ago-already it's so different. I miss that place but the memories will live forever.
Flipping back and forth from Dancing with the Stars and Glee-it doesn't get any better than this.
Forgot how fun it was to be a kid. Love this.
Just saw Fall's first leave fall!
Almost died today-twice! Between hydroplaning and people swerving lanes last minute. Thank God, I'm alive.
I hate tripping on shoes left out in the open! Put your shoes away!
"The greatest thing youll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return."

My thoughts with Twitter:
As a course requirement, I joined Twitter last semester for my Introductory course of Writing Arts. I dreaded it! I couldn't grasp the idea of posting "eating a PB&J sandwich." Who cares what your eating for lunch? As I became more familiar with Twitter, I realized it wasn't as bad as I thought. I enjoyed the social network. Quick 200 word responses enabled witty, humorous, and thoughtful posts. It's simplicity was quite unique. And that's what we want- something simple. This day and age, you won't find many people who actually read an entire newspaper or online article. Instead, we skim, because that's what we are accustomed to. We are always in a rush, on the go, busy. Twitter helps us to post what we're feeling or thinking whenever and wherever we chose. It brings us closer when we are farther apart. No matter where people are posting, they feel a closeness because of their tweets. This may be my favorite Twitter attribute! The one thing Twitter lacks-- ALL of my friends! They'd rather Facebook, which I totally understand. It's familiar and everyone facebooks! Now, if we could shift a little more and communicate though Twitter. I haven't tweeted since last semester. I was on Facebook this morning. I guess I'm just as bad as my friends. I won't delete my Twitter account because hopefully my friends will Tweet one day, but as of now, it's just an empty account.
