Quick Write: If you could create a smart phone app, what would it do?

If I created a smart phone app, it would be able to automatically detect what mood you're in and find a list of songs to go with it. It would be free so everyone can have it on their smart phone.

Quick Write: Create a Super Hero

My super hero would have the power to turn back time at will and his name would be Jeff because when you go around calling yourself something like "Superman" or "The Incredible..." people start to suspect things. Their costume is a regular suit.

Quick Write: Write about a time when you were brave

One time I was brave was when I was left home alone during a huge storm. I was already afraid of thunder and lightning, and the neighbors dog howling didn't help. Anyway, I was sitting in my room watching a movie huddled up in a blanket when I heard a loud noise coming from the washing machine . It sounded like something was trying to get out of it, it was hitting the sides of it, scratching. I decided that it was either face the rain and lightning and thunder or take back my house from this washing machine monster. As I was stepping outside to face the elements I remembered something, my favorite jeans were in the washing machine. My poor jeans, they must be terrified, I thought. So I put on a brave face and went back to the washing machine, opened the lid, and came face to face with the most hideous, the most vicious, cockroach in the world. I got my shoe and gave the loudest battle cry I could manage and crushed the monster to death. I saved my jeans, took back my house, and found my bravery.
