Winter Wonderland: A Descriptive Writing

You Are Entering A Winter Wonderland...

Winter Wonderland: A Descriptive Writing
Presly Phillips

Underneath you is fluffy, cold snow. The sounds of slush fill your ears. You watch as the misty fog escapes your mouth anytime you take a breath. Every time you inhale a frigid prickle enters your lungs and every time you exhale the heat from your breath warms your lips. Around you are naked trees covered in powder white snow. Glistening icicles hang off the branches like bats. The snow sparkles as it's frozen to branches; creating a Winter Wonderland.Although the beautiful sight makes you want to stay, you know you must be on your way...

Because your nose is as red as Rudolph and your cheeks have taken the color of a rose. The air is frigid and nippy. Your fingers and toes feel numb and are beginning to ache. Your ears feel the prickling cold through a hat that is beginning to itch. You take one last deep breath and the bitter cold air enters your lungs. The watery smell of the snow fills your nose and now you must head home.

At home, you start a fire...

You watch it light up with orange flames. You listen to fire crackling and smell a sweet aroma of burning wood. You sit close to the fire and let it warm your hands. You feel a tingling feeling as the fire warms your body. You make yourself a hot chocolate and throw in some marshmallows. In your mug is melted cocoa with soft pillows floating in the chocolate. The chocolate smell fills your nose as you taste the mouthwatering beverage. You wrap yourself in a fuzzy fleece blanket. Your body warms up and the feeling of coziness washes over you. Content and comfort fill your senses, leaving you in awe.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
