This is my first post for Creative
Writing class. I would like to describe some things according to my own five
senses in order to show the readers my experiences.
a. Sight
I have some favorite
places, but the sea with beautiful beach is I like the most. I go to there to
refresh my mind because it has wonderful view. The unlimited perspectives from
the sea make me feel free and peaceful. The water is blue as if it is painted
with water color, or as if it is the mirror that reflects the color of the sky.
Moreover, the waves with white froths run to reach the sand and strike the
reef. I really like to walk in the sand
to make footprint along the beach and watch it after I finished. It is
beautiful when you look it from far above away. Besides that, I also write my
name in the sand, but then it is erased by the waves. The nice scenery of the
sea always makes me want to come back there again.
b. Smell
My nose is very sensitive
with the unpleasant smell. Thus, when I smell it, I become very sick. Sometimes
it makes me sneeze and makes my stomach unwell. For instance, the bad smell of
garbage that is not thrown away for long time is the worst. There are odors of
stale food such as rice or other left over foods. Moreover, the strong smell of
fish is really disgusting. I cannot stand it so I have to use something to
cover my nose or spray the air freshener to reduce the smell. As much as
possible, I should stay away from the source of that awful smell.
c. Taste
Rujak lontong is my favorite
food in my hometown. It is kind of Lotek
in Yogyakarta, but is has different ingredients. There are strong taste of petis, the condiment of the fermented
fish or shrimp. Furthermore, the taste of fried peanut which is salty and crisp
makes it more delicious. If we like spicy, we can add more chilies. I like
spicy so when I eat it, it is very hot so I become sweaty and sultry. Even when
it is very spicy, my eyes become teary, but it is nice. Moreover, there are
fresh flavor from the vegetables such as cucumber and kale. Besides that, there
are pieces of fried tofu which I like very much. The tofu is savory and juicy
enriching the delicacy of this food. Then, the last ingredient is lontong which
is smooth and surfeited. This food is very delicious that makes me want to go
home just to eat it.
d. Hearing
Everyday I set up my alarm
in order to wake up early. However, that is not the first noise that I hear
because I switch it off unconsciously. The noise that wakes me up is the
ringtone of my mobile phone indicating my mother calls me. She calls me everyday. The ringtone is the song
of Korean singer named K-Will entitles “Don’t go”. The sound is heard as if it
is ringing my dream, but it still works out to wake me up. Although it is the
ballad song which has slow rhythm, I always startled then immediately pick it
up and speak to my mom. However, I still cannot open my eyes because I am very
sleepy.
e. Touch
My shoes are black and
flat. It is made from rubber so it is light and elastic. I use it almost
everyday for walking to everywhere because it is my favorite one. It has
flowers pattern which are embossed so when I touch it, I feel the rough
surfaces of flowers embroidery. It also has small holes
in the center of those patterns so my feet still can feel the air from the outside.
Thus, I rarely sweat though the weather is hot so my feet still feel fresh.
Besides, the dust sticks on it because I have not washed it yet. The dust is
smooth and I always have to wipe it with tissue before I use it again.
That is all my descriptions
about some things using my five senses. I have tried to make descriptions that
“show” the readers so they can feel the same experience as I did.
