Surely, no mere goldfish would dare to stare at me like that-- it should cower in fear at the sight of me! I decided to have an impromptu staring competition with the goldfish.]]> 2018-03-05 04:23:34 UTC https://padlet.com/fountainhead199/a1q5e4j1f8gc/wish/237921950 https://padlet.com/fountainhead199/a1q5e4j1f8gc/wish/237921960 Look at this puny mortal in front of me. It cowers in fear. What happened to the  Luchd-dìon, the guardians of old? The world is mine for the taking! With a flick of his wrist, the  Ainmhidhean conjured a sword of pure darkfire, but then heard a 'riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing'...
Alban woke , his body drenched in sweat and hit his alarm clock, making the cacophony cease and put on his tunic, grabbed his swordbelt and prepared for a whole new day of training.]]> 2018-03-05 04:23:38 UTC https://padlet.com/fountainhead199/a1q5e4j1f8gc/wish/237921960 https://padlet.com/fountainhead199/a1q5e4j1f8gc/wish/237922008 What, the cat thought, is this small orange blob in front of me. Is it alive? Can it be eaten? Does this small scaly ball has feelings like a cat?  Most importantly, is it tasty? If I ate the blob, would Mama cat approve? WHAT IS THIS BLOB?]]> 2018-03-05 04:23:57 UTC https://padlet.com/fountainhead199/a1q5e4j1f8gc/wish/237922008 https://padlet.com/fountainhead199/a1q5e4j1f8gc/wish/237922015 The little kitten stared at the fish intently. It had been staring at it for hours, wondering whether Mama cat would approve of it eating the fish. Its tail twitching, it tilted its head, wondering if his owners would let it eat the fish.
The kitten could not stand it any longer. It was hungry and needed something to eat. Without hesitation, it stuck its paw in the water, tail flicking vigorously. The fish dodged to the side, missing its claws by an inch.
The kitten lifted its paw out of the water in disappointment. Its belly rumbled loudly. How I wish I could catch fish as well as Mama, it thought sadly. I might as well give up. But Mama cat would be so proud if it caught that fish!
With a piercing yowl, the kitten plunged its claws into the water. It would never give up, not ever.
After a few tries, the kitten purred in pleasure. It had finally gotten hold of the fish! Mama will be so proud, it thought, as it padded away with the fish in its jaws.]]> 2018-03-05 04:23:58 UTC https://padlet.com/fountainhead199/a1q5e4j1f8gc/wish/237922015 https://padlet.com/fountainhead199/a1q5e4j1f8gc/wish/237922039 I stared at the golden blob in front of me. Was this all there was in this place? After all the other nice cats I used to play with, now I only have a random shape moving in front of me! Can it even come out of this bowl? What use is it? I might as well go and explore something else...
Wait. I just realised it is a fish! What is a fish doing in this bowl. Maybe it is for me to eat. Yum!]]> 2018-03-05 04:24:09 UTC https://padlet.com/fountainhead199/a1q5e4j1f8gc/wish/237922039 https://padlet.com/fountainhead199/a1q5e4j1f8gc/wish/237922062 A high-pitched ringing filled my ears. I blinked my eyes to welcome the bright lights staring down at me as I reached groggily across my  bed to shut off that infernalnoise maker known as the alarm clock. What a nuisance! My body ached as I tried to sit up, the effects  of lack of sleep seeping through my bones as a voice inside me longed for a couple more hours of rest.]]> 2018-03-05 04:24:18 UTC https://padlet.com/fountainhead199/a1q5e4j1f8gc/wish/237922062 https://padlet.com/fountainhead199/a1q5e4j1f8gc/wish/237922073 My heart pounded. We were racing against time in a bid to save this man's life. We only had one hour left to remove the tumour from the patient's brain, and it was not going well. An eerie silence echoed throughout the operating centre as I tried to figure out the precise location of the tumour. My hands worked quickly as time slowly ticked away.

With that, he reluctantly reached across the bed and shut off the irritating noise]]> 2018-03-05 04:24:36 UTC https://padlet.com/fountainhead199/a1q5e4j1f8gc/wish/237922097 kbmleleleeleven https://padlet.com/fountainhead199/a1q5e4j1f8gc/wish/237922101 I only have ten minutes left... I thought. Only ten minutes left to save the patient. I have somebody's  life in my hands, so I must make the most out of the time and experience I have. I must keep calm, and not be too nervous, as that may affect how I operate. As the head surgeonfor this operation, I must ensure that a life is not lost just because my team and I are incompetent!]]> 2018-03-05 04:24:36 UTC https://padlet.com/fountainhead199/a1q5e4j1f8gc/wish/237922101 https://padlet.com/fountainhead199/a1q5e4j1f8gc/wish/237922132 The cat's luminous green eyes gazed into the clear globe in front of him. He had been like this for hours, head slightly inclined and ears perked.
A whoosh of orange circled around the globe, and the cat continued to study it. A pink tongue darted in and out of his mouth as he followed the orange flutter's movements avidly. Back, forth, back, forth. His tail twitched along to the rhythm. 
At this point, the cat's eyes were crossed and the outside world was a blur. His felt his heart beating fast and his tail twitched faster still, his nose pulsing and jowls damp. The orange swirled about. His belly rumbled, and he grew increasingly restless. Would the orange swirl really disappear if he just reached in and ate it, even just a tiny bit?

He felt tired. Unprepared to start the day. He reluctantly slammed the machine, putting the incessant ringing noise to an end. He slowly rose up from the comforts of his bed, sighing as he thought of the events that lay ahead for the coming afternoon. Each day was the same, instilling a sense of boredom and pointlessness in him. He found not much point in that daily, never-changing routine of his.]]> 2018-03-05 04:25:27 UTC https://padlet.com/fountainhead199/a1q5e4j1f8gc/wish/237922217 https://padlet.com/fountainhead199/a1q5e4j1f8gc/wish/237922249 A high-pitched sound woke me up from my deep slumber. Must I really have to wake up? I felt tired but I have to go to school. I don't have a choice. How I wish I could just sleep in for the day. I rubbed my eyes, stretched a little bit and reluctantly got out of bed. I slammed the alarm clock, stopping it from ringing.  What a nuisance of an alarm clock!]]> 2018-03-05 04:25:43 UTC https://padlet.com/fountainhead199/a1q5e4j1f8gc/wish/237922249 https://padlet.com/fountainhead199/a1q5e4j1f8gc/wish/237922314 James felt a drop of sweat fall from his chin. Luck was not on their side. The smallest mistake could result in catastrophe.

Looking at the revolting blob of mass, I felt hopelessly helpless. It has been 12 hours, and the patient's condition has only seemed to worsen. The swelling in his brain does not feel like stopping itself. I wiped the sweat out of my eyes, which were getting blurry from exhaustion. With someone's life in my hands, and one of the weirdest situations I have ever seen, the odds are against me. I know that if were to fail, this would tarnish my reputation as the best brain surgeon around.
