‘Write an account of a time when you enjoyed or hated taking part in an outdoor activity’

“Thump, thump, thump”. Is that my feet as I drag them from out of the slogging, mud road? Or is it the rain hammering against my jacket? The mud has long soaked through my green hiking boots, turning them a dark, muddy brown and I debate turning around back to the safety of the campsite. But I can’t. The rain has made it impossible to see three feet in front of me. It is the only thing I see, rain droplets and clouds. I'd like it if I were inside my house or a cabin somewhere in the woods. Preferably, inside a cabin so I can still enjoy all that nature has to offer, but not have to be soaked and tormented by torrential rain. Unfortunately, I made the mistake of going outside where I'm tormented by torrential rain, which strongly indicates an angry Zeus, it’s a shame he hasn’t brought the lightning - yet. My jacket, my hair, my everything is soaked through right to the bone. I don’t think I'll ever be dry again. The trees cloud together to make nothing but a blur of green movement. The road is no longer walkable, it’s now a slugging mess, if you try to walk in the brown liquid you’ll be stuck in it for days. I think that’s my fate. My feet are lodged well within the quicksand like mud and as much as I tug and pull they won’t dislodge. This is my worst nightmare. I feel my heartrate quicken and my hands leak with sweat - great more water! I can’t get out. I’m heaving and I’m pulling but it just won’t give. This is wearing me out, my chest beats up and down, almost in time with the rain, my hand slips down the hiking stick as I fall deeper and deeper into the mud.

i wish i liked a man

I wish I liked a man, I ask myself when could I start?, When can you begin to like a man, But I don't, that's the unfortunate part.

I wish i was straight, My brain tells me to like a man, Yet an attraction i cannot create, I wish I liked a man.

Why can’t i enjoy loving a woman, I wish i had my family's support, Really, why can’t i be human, Why was I cut short?

Why do you find a woman loving a woman so vile, Why are you so hostile? Why did I treat myself that way? It’s not disgusting to be gay.
