Exercise 3 writing part 2

EXT. HIGH SCHOOL.DAY

The leaves are blowing throughout the air as the kids exit the school and exhausted from the long day of work. We then see two KIDS. JOHN and JIM walk out together.

                                             JOHN
             Hey bro did you write down the math homework?

Jim looks at him with confusion.

                                              JIM
                                    (confused)
           I don't think we had math homework today.

The leaves continue to fall all around them. John begins to become angry.

                                             JOHN
                                        (Angry)
Yes we did how do you forget to write down the homework.

                                           JIM
          I don't understand why you always have to count on me to do it.
                              (pause)
       Why don't you just do it yourself.

The sky begins to get dark and gray. Suddenly it begins to rain. Jim and John start to walk into the rain so that they can get home.

EXT.BACKSTREETS.DAY
The rain continues to fall and begins to intensify. The two brothers begin to walk faster.

                                JOHN
      Hey man I'm sorry I flipped on you back there.
                (pause)
      Your right I should not leave everything up to you.

                                   JIM
       Ahh Don't worry about it I was only messing with you before. 
        I got the homework written down.

They both look at each other and laugh and walk into their house as the rain begins to clear. The sun finally comes out from behind the gray looking clouds. The weather instantly becomes beautiful almost spring like.

                                                                                                                  THE END

Exercise 3 Part 1

Msgr. Farrell Highschool Taken By Jason Leavy (Summer 2011)
          



                   A place that shows a lot of visual when observing is Msgr. Farrell High school 

located on Staten Island. When I visited my old school I finally just sat down and 

looked at the building and surroundings and noticed that there were a lot of vibrant 

colors, the shading of the brick, the bright saturation of the autumn leaves, and how 

the sunlight reflected onto the building itself creating an outdoor illumination which 

means the sky and the walls of the building are light. All recessed areas like the doors 

and especially the windows, are in the shade which makes that region dark.
         
When looking around the campus of the school I've noticed a lot of different 

colors. for example the orange/ red of the leaves, the bright green turf coming from 

the football field and how the light from the sky brought upon shadows.  I arrived at 

the school when the kids were exiting the building so there were a lot of laughing, 

and fun conversations going. In some cases I felt a sense of relief from the students 

because school was over.
       
This school was very important to me because it made me a better man and 

helped me active my goal at the time, which was to get into a great college. It was 

and still is considered to be my second home because the teachers help there students so 

that they can succeed in life. Whenever i come back to visit it feels like i never left. This 

places gave me great memories that I will cherish for a life time.
