Here's a collection of my vignettes that I wrote for creative writing class (if you don't know what a vignette is you probably will when you read them):
Love/Obsession
When it hurts so much to have someone in your heart but not in your arms, that my friend is called obsession or possibly love. Thinking about that person everyday without even trying. They come up in many conversations you have with friends. Almost everything reminds you of that person, basically any word in the English language. Scribbling their name in your notebook. Songs you sing dedicated to that person. Poems you write about that special someone. Trying so hard to get with that person but feeling emotionally distraught when you realize that it is not likely. Attempting to like the same things as them. Changing yourself to be that perfect man/woman in their eyes. Driving people crazy talking about them. Feeling that you know them but yet they are strangers shows obsession the most. Look at them and feel what they are feeling.
Raviv Ullman
A total babe. Such a hottie. Adds energy to any room he enters. Looking at his smile brightens up my day like the hot sun. He’s my snugglebunny. Sweet as candy. A total gentleman. His eyes are pools of beautiful chocolate. I could swim in them forever. Hair so soft but with a hint of creative wildness. Every time he lets his hair get shaggy and does not shave his face, it’s like his beauty is still there but he’s hiding it. The nicest person you will ever meet. He goofs off a lot so you can tell he is delightfully crazy but he also has a serious side. If someone is sad, he will cheer them up. When it’s time to buckle down and work, he will know that there is a time and place for craziness and that is not it. Possibly romantic. Sophisticated yet playful. Not only are the things he is good at make him the perfect boyfriend but his imperfections also make him the perfect man. He is a brilliant actor. Anyone can recite lines, but he really gets into the character and makes you feel like he is that person. Beautiful but yet not so beautiful that he’s unattainable or unrealistic-looking. If one song could describe him, it would be Beautiful Soul because that’s how a lot of us girls feel about him.
Rosie
Dumb like Chelsea from That’s So Raven. Her fur is as pretty as a rose, for that is how she got her name. Irresponsible like a little child. Stubborn as a mule. Cute as a kitten in a Christmas stocking. She’s my little kitty. Roams frequently under the bed. This frustrates me so much. Her hop is as fast as a racecar. I could never catch up with her. A piggy always begging near her dinnertime. What is she thinking? But why do you even have to ask? She’s so predictable. All she does is eat and sleep. So lazy. She is a little baby as far as I’m concerned. No matter. Despite all her faults, she’s still Mommy’s little girl and I love her. Right away you can tell she’s a man slaughterer. Except she’s a bunny slaughter instead, killing her little babies just because she is too lazy and irresponsible to deal with the pressures of being a mother. Now that is selfish. Or is she worried that I’m being too greedy just wanting her to have the babies for my own profit so she’s teaching me a lesson? Or is she worried whether I’m going to leave her behind and flee using the money I made from her babies? Maybe she’s not as predictable as I thought. This is something I will lose sleep over. Now she is getting fat as a potbelly pig but still cute. Can be aggressive around people she doesn’t know. I guess she has that up- in- the- air mood to her. It’s like “Be careful! She may bite but we’re not sure if she will or not.”
