So I just found my usb that I kept when I was in Year 3/4, I'm not sure. First thing I do is plug it in to see what cringe-worthy content it holds. There's a folder called best stories, so I click on it to find two documents. Clicking on both, there's one that just made me laugh so much that I had to share.
First off, it's 43 pages. So that's where 7/8 year old Jess' time went; writing draggy, pointless stories for future Jess to cringe so much that her eyes bleed. Secondly, the format, I'm crying.
1. The title is in rainbow word art
2. The background is black
3. The text is in alternating colours of the rainbow, one colour for each page
4. The text is in comic sans.
I'm halfway down the page, and the characters are called Alexandra Sparkle and Madelyn Sparks. I'm crying. I clearly didn't have a google to research proper last names. Guess what? Alexandra is tall, popular and gorgeous, and Madelyn is a nerd who's room is cluttered with every single academic trophy imaginable.
I think my eyes are already hurting as I'm trying to read bright red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple text. They're probably going to be bleeding once I'm five pages down.
I just thought I'd share that with you so you can all cringe at 7/8 year old me.
