An object that is significant to me would be my stuffed panda. I had it for a long time. And when I was younger, it was something I would take with me everywhere I go. My sister and I both had our favorite stuff toys. I remember how we would always play with them, pretending they were real. My stuffed panda was given to me by my dad, and because of this stuff toy, panda became one of my favorite animal at that time!
I remembered carrying around my panda everywhere I went. And now looking back at old photos, I see myself along with my panda on almost every picture. I also remember the times when I would also carry around to the restaurant or any other places I went to. The panda was also something I would hug when I go to sleep. However, one day when we moved, I lost it. This was a few years back, but I can still remember how heartbreaking I felt at that moment. Even though it was just a stuff toy, it meant a lot to me as it is part of my childhood and memories.
Now when talking about an object that is significant to me, I immediately think of my panda and although I don’t have my panda with me anymore, I know that it will still, forever be within my memories; something that is hard to lose.

Hey Viki~
ReplyDeleteoh..what a sad story...but its a good essay. I like it when you said, "I remember how we would always play with them, pretending they were real. " Imagine now, you are talking to your panda, so funny right?! Well, but it reminds me of my BB-pig too. We talked a lot!
Only one suggestion, repetition is good, but I think there are too many "remember"s, so maybe it is better to change it. Overall, this is touching, and the last sentence support ur essay really well- " I know that it will still, forever be within my memories; something that is hard to lose."
Jenny Tang: hey sweety~ Your reflective essay is similar to Sandras! XD I really liked how you described the importace of your panda and it's really nice to give examples of what you did with it....loved it when you said you brought it to restaurants too~ I can't picture mini Viki carrying stuffed Panda around..soooo weird~ hehe Anways...for improvements you could describe your stuffed panda more and maybe tell how you lost it? In general, I loved your essay, sooo cute~

ReplyDeleteVIKI, hahahaha. Panda girl :)
Such a sad story, i know the pain of losing things when you move too!!! cause as you know, i have my own little stories about moving as well :(
I really liked the part where you said "The panda was also something I would hug when I go to sleep" because we all had one of those and we can really link it to when we were little kids too... or when I was a little kid, anyway.
I agree with Jenny and think that it would be really nice if you could give a bit more detail and describe what the panda looked like. Also, you had a few sentences that started with "And" ("... a long time. And when I was younger...", "... everywhere I went. And now...") I think you can just join the two sentences instead of cutting them up if they were talking about similar things, or if they were talking about different things maybe you can try other transition words.
