6 Word Memoris

Time for a creative-ish post ^^.

A few weeks ago my older cousin (lets just call her M) came over my house (she lives on the same street as me, so this wasn't really a big deal...) She's in high school, and she's taking an Autobiography class. It might not be called that, but it's basiclly what they do there- learn to write about themselves. Right now they have an assignmenet called, "6 Word Memoirs." The idea has been used in schools all over, and it came from the author Earnest Hemingway. http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&frm=1&source=web&cd=1&sqi=2&ved=0CDIQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FErnest_Hemingway&ei=a3sDT-WjNNTJiQLj4zU&usg=AFQjCNGDFOIs-i37cGI2nETfp7OOQNQdqg&sig2=jJvTQVbWG50m6d5XQmcyDA">Earnest Hemingway.

Once, he was challenged to describe his life in 6 words. He said,"For sale: baby shoes, never worn."

Most people believe it means that maybe he once tried to have a child but died really early, so he never wore the shoes, or maybe he had a younger sibling that died when he was younger.

Anyways, the point of the assignment is to describe your life in 6 words. For Christmas, my cousin made my sister and i each a collage with our favorite things on it and stuff(you know, an "All about me" thing) and she put a 6 word memoir on it for each of us. Mine was, "Undiscovered genius, waiting for her calling." It was nice ^^ even though i am totally not a genius.

SO...
i want you people...
to write your own!!!!!!! Either on your world, in a comment, in an ecard/wallpaper, anything.

Don't feel like you have to, but i thought since i found it fun to make them up it might be fun for you too .

So basically do whatever you want with this, i won't really care either way, but maybe you could think about it at least???? It's really very interesting.

All right! I feel like a teacher, assigning you stuff like this. Kaly sensei!!! hahaha XD Please have fun with this :)

OH!!! Theres lots of videos on YouTube that are just all 6 word memoirs written by high school kids. This is my favorite one, you can use it maybe to get you started:
