Re:Have you used any of these literary devices? If so, please post them on your blog.

What I had been using was that I read my blog all over again and decided to change some parts the same way I have been taught In class. Like Off topic ideas are not neccisary at all on the blog, I really don't even understand why junk should be In such nice work. What I had said on my Draft #2 was that Fun and games, Luck, and skill. Instead I got feedback from everybody, used It, and chose one topic to focus. And now draft #3 looks fantastic to me.

Different leads

1: There I was, when I had my first card game. I think It was somewhat of a rain drop that fell on my cards, of course, because It was raining. But I do not think It was that rain drop mostly, maybe My card protectors are just too old.

2: Wow! New luck had just arrived! But how? Card protectors are just too weird, This Is just way too unexpected. Maybe that Rain Drop Is way too freaky.

3: I just sat on the table, where I had my first card game. Thinking of how my luck got worse day after day. I know It was raining but, did my cards get messed up? That Is way too weird, These card sleeves are too scary.

Draft #3 "Shocking Rain"

I just sat on the table, where I had my first card game. Thinking of how my luck got worse day after day. I know It was raining but, did my cards get messed up? I kept thinking, second after second, how could this happen. It might be new luck I guess, or maybe It's just a simple drop of water that got my cards stuck together. I heard thunder boom for about 3 times, and I had never heard anything like that before.

The sounds of talking and snapping got me remembering of something, probably just a old memory popping In my mind. After each match I had faced and won, I waited In the rain watching the dark clouds pass by like ghost, Then I stopped looking because the weird situation. Just like how fire burns tissue, The percentage of luck kept dropping quick like how fast the tissue always burns. I thought It was rain but not even a single rain drop stick the card protectors together. Or maybe these protectors are just too old and damaged.

I was maybe wrong about my hypothesis

The old memory was really when I had my first pokemon match, the exact things kept happening to me ( Which was about 2 months ago). I had almost lost and suddenly regained a lot of power reversing the 6 into a 9. Those draws have really shocked me. I know what the cards are saying to me, I have too much stress on becoming #1. I really think what It's telling me Is, "Have a nice long game, don't rush, Just take your time." Maybe, This Is just all In my Imagination.

Rough Draft #2

Back In January 5th,2008."Woah, Is this for real?" I asked myself after winning my 26th Pokemon TCG matches In a row In the Pokemon Card game event. My luck had kept coming worse and worse every time after I had played a rough match. Then I heard a thunder roar after I won, The rain had suddenly appeared 2 minutes later. I had the worse beginning hand after I had heard that Thunder, I thought maybe a drop of water mysteriously dropped on my cards and got stuck to each other.

I was Wrong.

It had must have been the old card protectors I had for 3 years, because I didn't see any water drops on any cards. The next few matches I played, I had almost lost In 3 minutes. Then I needed just this 1 card, next turn. Draw. The card I need always comes and turns the match around In an instant. I would have had more of an enjoyable time playing the game, But I was worrying too much about the new luck. This has never happened to me before.

Then I watched the other player's battles, It had been the opposite. But no worries, I asked my friends and they said," It's nothing to worry, It happens to me all the time, just focus on having an enjoyable event". I did have a fun event, but then I didn't want this to happen. So I called this luck,"The Fire", It's a weird name but I'll go with It. The Fire Is a type of mysterious power that pops out of nowhere when you are about to lose or be KO'd, That power just turns a 6 to a 9. So then I just noticed that happens to some people, So I am not really worried anymore.

Rough Draft #1

"Wow,how easy can this be?" I said after I had won 28 Pokemon card game matches In a row. It was really strange because It's an event that the best of the best players are chosen. I felt like I was the #1 player In the state or maybe the world, because I always use to lose but now It's the complete opposite.
"How can this be?" I asked myself ,"Am I really that good of a player? Or are all of these people just beginners?" The Semis got a little tougher, Still I hadn't regretted what I had said earlier In the day. I kept thinking what got me this far, and I think I was just really lucky. And I started to think I'm wrong, Maybe just the cards I got for Christmas (I kept getting such wierd Ideas).


I thought my rankings will be high, but still stayed the same. I was happy at that moment, But everything changed when I moved up In the tournament bracket. Things got harder then suddenly every game was a very close match, I lost 1 match (Not a single elimination event). When I kept moving higher and higher, The matches I battled were very tough In the higher matches. I suddenly moved higher and higher until the championships match. (City championships)
