The astonishing diary of a depressed sheep.
Day 1
Yawn. What a boring day. Honestly, sometimes I wonder how I haven’t died of boredom. I mean, I’m stuck in this boring field with boring grass, just waiting to be turned into chops. I’m all alone, with only my reflection to keep me going. Wouldn’t it be great if something interesting could happen for once? Even the cows have each other for company. Maybe though, I should think about looking on the bright side. Hang on, there is no bright side, is there? I mean, I’m a depressed sheep.
Day 4
I started to plan my escape today, but got distracted by grass. Then I tried to hold my nose so I couldn’t smell it, but then I remembered I have hooves. Are there actually any perks to being a sheep?
Day 5 …show more content…

Aw, come on. The clouds are grey and the sky keeps rumbling. No doubt, a storm is brewing.
Day 7 and 10 minutes
HELP!!! It’s pouring down! I’d better go into my shelter!
Day 7 ½
Eek! A lightning bolt struck the grass! Thank goodness it missed me! Note to self: don’t eat from that patch of grass…
Day 9
Finally, the storm has died down. However, a strange flower has appeared where that lightning bolt has struck. It looks very tasty, I’m gonna eat it. Hang on, isn’t there something I needed to remember about that patch of grass? Never mind, it’ll come back to me…
Day 11
Ugh. I feel terrible. I have a terribly annoying itch on my back. I need to scratch it. Great, I can’t reach it. I should really get back to my escape plan, I haven’t thought about it in a week. Ooh, grass…
Day 14
I can see some pretty birds soaring overhead. Whoa, those birds are so elegant. I wish I could fly… I mean, how amazing would that be? Roaming free over the world… Hang on, can sheep fly? Lets’ find out!
Day 14 and 5 minutes
WOO-HOO! I can fly! Hey, the lightning bolt must have created the flower and that itch must have been my wings growing! Goodbye Mr. Reflection, I’m off to Rio de

    It was a bone-chilling winter morning in Bavaria. My alarm clock rang, and I slapped it to snooze. Oh no, I was not getting up that day. I had just finished the worst school week of my life. If we zoom back to that time two years ago, I was a 14 year old foreign exchange student in southern Germany. Bullying from the kids in school had made my homesickness unbearable. But that’s not all. I eventually became so anxious throughout my exchange that I chewed all the skin around my nails, gained 15 pounds, and finally, had to book my flight back home January 1st.

    About a week later a tornado razed a better part of North Houston. It brought rain. It brought hail. It upended cars; it flooded houses. And in its trail it left fallen branches and trees, and removed, in whole, one tiny tomato-onion-potato-and-green-bean garden located behind my garage.

    We are all individuals that are caught up in an unwanted storm. Not knowing when it will end, we have to decided to journey through it or hide from it. There will be endless days of struggle in our lifetime, where rain will hit like bullets onto our skin. However, our mentality and approach to situations have a lot of influence on whether you will move on or stay the same during an obstacle. The power to face the storm or hide from it starts, continues, and ends within ourselves. The storm will not last forever. No matter what the sun will always shine, just look for a brighter tomorrow.

    Halfway up it was beginning to look doubtful, the wind was picking up and everyone was getting out rain gear to prepare for the storm. I voiced my doubts to Phil and he said we might as well keep going until the lighting got too close. So we did. The thunder grew in volume and the echoes magnified the noise to a dull roar sometimes.      Then suddenly it began to ebb. The wind died down and lightening came less frequently. I exchanged relieved looks with Phil after a bit, but kept the pace up--I didn’t want to take chances. Eventually it hit us, but by then it was nothing more then a heavy rain. We kept moving, if slower, and made it over the ridge with no other problems. That night I enjoyed the meal a little more and slept a little deeper realizing how much is important that easily goes unnoticed until something threatens to take it away.

    This assignment introduced me to the sound and message of the rapping duo: Black Sheep. The group consist of New York natives Dres and Mista Lawnge. My search for the album to review started with skimming through the table of context of Brian Coleman’s Check the Technique Volume 2 and listening to snippets of each album. I initially was going to review a 3rd bass album because of the familiar samples; however, one song from the Black Sheep album stood out and made this album a clear choice. In this assignment, I hope to examine most tracks on the album and analyze the collective message of this twenty-two track project.

    Once the storm arrives, stay inside and away from walls and windows that could collapse or be blown away. If it is during the night, have a flashlight near-by so that you can find your way around in case of a power failure. Don’t use the telephone either unless it’s absolutely necessary. Many people may be trying to make emergency calls and the phone lines may be knocked down in some areas.

    Stepping outside, I instantly notice the fresh, wet scent of earth. As I continue walking, I willingly allow the sprinkling droplets to envelop my entire body. My shoes are soon soaked; with each step I take, I feel a puddle of water move beneath my feet. The rain hurls itself violently on the dark, slippery pavement. My hair is dripping with ice-cold raindrops which plummet to the earth with every movement I make. The numbing effect of the icy downpour is finally setting in. Fierce thunder clouds sneak into the murderous sky and flashing lightning strikes begin. The rain falls faster and heavier. My feet move quickly as I run down the road. I rush into my house and proceed to stare out the window and observe the vicious storm that is only beginning. The weather has the uncanny ability to promptly change a mood. Rain holds several emotions that could be considered polar opposites; they range from cleansing to depression, love to anger, and life to death.

    Imagine a beautiful evening in Moore, a suburb lying on the outskirts of Oklahoma City. Mom is in the kitchen and the kids are playing in the yard. In a matter of minutes, the sky turns green and large cumulonimbus clouds start to churn. A crackle of thunder sends a chill up your spine, followed by a strong odor of ozone that fills the air as Mother Nature’s fireworks illuminate the dark sky. Large golf ball-sized hail stings your window and a melody of car alarms play in the streets.

    When I open my eyes and see the bottom of the top bunk I think to myself, "day one of week five." At 7:00, the alarm goes off and I heard the grumbling of eight junior high girls as they start to slowly climb out of their beds half awake. "Rise and shine and give God the glory glory." As my typical morning song continues, I get eight sets of glares from my campers. For some reason it just makes me smile. "I wish I had my blow dryer." "I really want my make up." The usual teenage comment I hear the first day. "Five minutes to finish getting ready before Alpha!" I yell, "I'll meet everyone out side of the cabin!" I found my way outside Mt. Horeb cabin sitting on the picnic table just smiling to myself for no particular reason.
