Get to know you paragraph
Hello, this is my get to know you paragraph for English 9 about cycling.
I charge forward through the fog, the rain stinging my cheeks. My wheels splash through the puddles, sending muddy spay all over my backpack. I look up to see the traffic light turn orange. I swerve right and turn onto the sidewalk. I break, unclip my pedal, and come to a halt next to the crosswalk button. I press it, then hop off my seat and turn my bike toward the road. I watch the light turn orange, then red, then my light turns green and I’m off! The cold morning air is full of the scent of car exhaust and fresh coffee. Cars speed past me and I struggle to keep up. I swing round the corner and sprint towards the end of the road, like a Tour de France rider coming into the final lap. I come up to the end of the road and swing up onto the sidewalk. I unclip my foot and stop by the crosswalk button for the second time this morning. I wait for the light and after a few minutes, the light turns green and I start off again. Soon, I’m by the Coquitlam river, listening to the river gurgle along beside me. The trees stand tall against the shadow of the grey sky. I dip under the underpass and come up again beside the river. I sprint along and turn off into gates park. I sail down a small hill and come out onto the sidewalk. I make my way slowly along the side walk, my eyes watering. There aren’t too many people around today, as it is poring with rain. Even I am crazy to be out in this weather. Finally, I turn into the school and stop by the bike rack. I jump of my bike and walk slowly to the bike rack, my rain pants swishing annoyingly beneath me. I lock up my bike and walk into the school, my shoulders heavy with the knowledge that I will have to do all of this again later.
Here is my power point presentation. Get to know you paragraph
