This is something I saw on another writing site once, and it worked out pretty well. Basically, the writing activity is to just describe your day in haiku form. Lets see if it works out here.

Also, a haiku has three lines. The first and third lines have five syllables. The second line has seven syllables.


Today finals start,
Test-taking, essay writing,
Tired I will be.

Silly stinkin poems,

That be all I do.

I woke up today,
Dogs barking, people yelling,
I just want my sleep

I wake up 'round twelve
Then go downstairs and study
Desperately so
Graffiti is the most passionate form of literature there is.

Homework really sucks
I shouldn't have put it off
Until the last day.

I write a Haiku
I find it quite difficult
I'm not good at them

No pen or paper
Yet ideas in my head
Taunt me as I walk.

Am I even up?
I wish I were still asleep.
Weight training, cartoons.

It's come! The Doom Day!
I did my Science Fair speech
I kinda blew it.

Went driving today
I sped into all my turns
Which is really bad

Snow, snow, everywhere
Looks like dandruff in my hair
How did it get there?

My stomach hurts lots
I don't want to go to school
But I may have to

Horrible, I know!
