i know this may sound silly.but i need help.well,comments actually.on my essay.i got like 956 words so far.
dont laugh.dont be amazed either.
this is how it begins.
"Caz lives about ten minutes walk form the centre of town.Five minutes if you jog;but who the hell wants to jog?She also lives close enough to the river for the blue mists of spring and the grey fogs of autumn to haul themselves out,roll along the bank,climb over the backyard wall and reach cold,damp fingers into the house where she lives alone with her mum.
Just two girls together.Wouldnt that be a lil,awkward?nevermind.That's the way it has been since her dad ran off with the teenage baby-sitter when Caz was nine.apparently,mum said she was ''HOT''.yeah,hot.In the ass.'Actually,it's a relief.' is what Caz mum said at the time.But the smart house on the hill got sold property.The wooden windows-frames are rotten and the doors are draughty.Damp-mould peppers one wall of the kitchen.
If Caz's mum was a drunk,or a debt-head,or just a nasty-bitch-in-general,the it would be easy to blame her for some thingd Caz gets up to.The old i-didnt-had-a-childhood defence.The broken-home plea.Truth is,Caz's mother is nice as pie.Nice as pecan-with-fresh-cream-pie.Actually,she is better than any of it.She takes no shits,but ever since she first started living alone with Caz she's kept her heap up,worked hard to keep the house and been a good friend to Caz.
If you were the kind of person who held small things against people,here is just all you could say to her ; she sleeps like a pig.Snores like one,too.In fact,her snoring is like the sound of someone driving s whole herd of unruly pig to market.It's the pills.The ones her mum takes for depression.Okay,so maybe the little green and while pills help witht he mood swings,but they put her into a kind of fog.And when she's not in a fog she's sleeping deeply.Caz wonders if fogging and sleeping and snoring through life isn't more depressing than depression itself.
If there hadn't be any pills,Caz's mum wouldn't have been so given over to slumber.If she hadn't been lost in her underwater cavern of sleep,Caz wouldn't have been out doing the Crepy Thing.Caz has tested her mum sleeping.It is possible to slam doors,clang saucepans and ring bells in her ear without her once stirring.When her mum is gone,she is gone.......''
err,it continues alot more.neway,whatcha think?this is like the beginning.i know its alot of words.it's meant to be.so tell me whatcha think bout it.
msn,chatbox,friendster,comments.ANYTHING LAH! (:

Are you writing a story..?
I think some sentences are too informal and confusing..
You got a lot of slang as well..
Overall it is ok..
If you are writing a story...
I suggest you to write the synopsis of the story first...
Outline all the important points that need to be included in your story...
Then from your points...
Write a draft of your story.. Don't give a damn about the spelling or grammar first..
When you finish writing your story...
Go back to it and try to correct your essay with better grammar and spelling...
That is all my advice...
