8C SuperPower Essay

Most of the time, people become an annoyance in my everyday life. Why can’t they do what is needed to become successful? [question] Sometimes, it is a total waste of my time to even look at them, as if I need to engage more productively because time is money (metaphor). Only if they immediately turn into a golden statue, standing in the middle of the classroom, staying in stunned silence, the day would be even better. If this can be done, money is no longer a problem as a golden figure is worth millions. The only issue that puzzles me will be how I should spend the money to please my mind and soul. Perhaps, a monster yacht with a landing platform for the helicopter in case I like to sail to Fiji Island to watch the beautiful sunrise in the morning? [ask a question to make the reader think] Needless to say, with a simple touch, miracles can happen with this unbelievable superpower!


After all the magical touches, suddenly, loneliness and isolation actually haunt my mind, with no one to talk to or interact with. Despite the chirping of birds, swimming with the dolphins and thousands of zipping streaks of light in the night sky, I have begun to realize that relationships with another human are absolutely necessary and this cannot be done with a giant sculpture standing in front of my face, pretending to admire my superpower. The icy cold slap of a golden toilet seat (imagery, touch, cold feeling) can never be as passionate as a warm hug from my lovely wife and son. 

Thus, after I turn half of the world into gold, I want to be human again with no special power.

 Pizza lunch tomorrow

Superpower introductory paragraph (use three devices in your writing. Don't have to include all devices in the introduction)

Kwok's example

For thousands of years, after the kings or queens die in different nations, they like to be buried  in golden caskets that represent wealth, power and longevity in the afterworld. If I can process a power that can turn everything into pure gold with a simple touch, that will be magical since my body sparkles like a shining star in the middle of the galaxy. (simile)

Locker clean out on Thursday March 12

 Bring a BIG bag please and take all unnecessary items home

Important: Grad Photo information

 

Wednesday March 11, 2026

My only tip for students would be to come prepared.  We suggest a white collared shirt for the young gentlemen and for 


the ladies a white collared shirt but also a white rounded neck for a shirt works nicely too.  If the boys want a tie we recommend they bring one from home.  


Tips from the photographer for Grad Photos 

Students please prepare for your photos.   Bright Pics suggest a white collared shirt for the young gentlemen and for the ladies a white collared shirt but also a white rounded neck for a shirt works nicely too. If anyone wishes to wear a tie, we recommend they bring one from home and advise the photographer.  
We take four photos and the first photo is the one that goes on the composite (and in the yearbook) so we highly suggest a smile!!!
Students are reminded to bring their composite money on photo day but late envelopes we will accept too.  
It will be a great day!   
Say cheese!

Thank you,
Kathy
