I have a very special hood T in my room-closet. It's overly white colored and has a "Smurf" character in the middle.
Its sleeves are worn out, and the color of the clothes is faded.
In addition, it doesn't fit me anymore because it has been stretched after several times of bad laundries. However, still the hood-T is one of my most cherished clothes. Then why is this cloth so important to me?
I have to reel the clock needle backward, and tell you about myself a little bit, before I give you the real story of the hood-T. To tell you the truth, I have some problem in maintain long-lasting relationship with my boyfriends. The longest time I've ever dated was approximately 3 months. Because I dedicate myself a lot when I date, it left me nothing but a torn heart after I broke up. Also I never had a chance to celebrate 100 anniversaries, since I always split apart right before the days of those events. After the same, repeated dating pattern going over and over again, I was exhausted with meaningless dating. So I declared never to get involved in a serious relationship until I graduate the university. However, my current boyfriend totally turned my view on dating. My skeptical thoughts on dating were able to fade away, due to the efforts that my boyfriend has taken.
The hood-T is the 100 anniversary gift that I received from my boyfriend as a present. It's really meaningful not only because it represent that I had a long-relationship for more than 100 days, but also it was my first anniversary gift I've ever gotten in my life. Now our couple has been dating for almost a year, and during the time my boyfriend bought me many other clothes because the hood-T he gave has ragged. However, I will still keep this hood-T as my favorite cloth because it reminds me of the memorable time I spent with my boyfriend.
I will never trade this shirt with anything else.
This hood-T will last for a lifetime!
Hi this is ChaiHyun Nah from your monday writing class. My favorite about your writing is the part you talked about your real story-- about your past, yourself, and the T-shirt. Like the professor mentioned before, the real story really touched my heart, and I could understand more easily the specialness of your T-shirt. However, the first sentence of your main paragraph, "I have to reel the colck needle backward, ~ the real story of the hood T.", is kind of vague for me. I understand what you want to talk about in this sentence but I still believe it would be better if you have stated in the more simple way.
ReplyDeleteThank you, and see you on next Monday:) Happy weekend!
Hi, I really enjoyed reading your writing. Like the comment above telling the real story really meant a lot. But in wrting descriptive paragraph I feel a little bit lacking in your writing. Talking about your previous reationships was great the words came to me instantly but I thought 'escriptive' meant describing something physical,real, like a material.So I think it would be better if you add some describings about your hoody a little but. This is my feed back on your writing and see you in the class!!
ReplyDeleteA hood T that I love…

First, I have to describe about myself a little bit, before I give you the real story of the hood-T. To tell you the truth, I have some problem in maintaining long-lasting relationship with my boyfriends. The longest time I've ever dated was approximately 3 months. Because I dedicate myself a lot when I date, it left me nothing but a torn heart after I broke up. Also I never had a chance to celebrate 100 day anniversaries, since I always split apart right before the days of those events. After the same, repeated dating pattern going over and over again, I was exhausted with meaningless dating. So I declared never to get involved in a serious relationship until I graduate the university. However, my current boyfriend totally turned my view on dating.

The hood-T is the 100 anniversary gift that I received from my boyfriend as a present. I can still remember the first day I received the hood-T. It was wrapped with a red box with yellow ribbon. It felt like a Christmas present. After opening the box, the first thing I saw was a big blue Smurf with a blond hair and a white curved hat on top on it. It was right in the center of the cloth so that everyone can see the Smurf. The point of hat was bended down to the front. The Smurf was she-smurf so she had a long eyelashes and rosy cheeks. It also wore white dress and white pointy shoes. Except for the Smurf there is no decoration in the rest of the part. The color of the hood-T is clean white and it has a lovely cotton wools dangling at the back of the hoods. It definitely fitted me very well and I was very happy when I got it.
It's really meaningful not only because it represent that I had a long-relationship for more than 100 days, but also it was my first anniversary gift I've ever gotten in my life. Now our couple has been dating for almost a year, and during the time my boyfriend bought me many other clothes because the hood-T he gave has ragged.
