Jessica Carbine Moment in Time/A mini Adventure

 


Step by Step/ Moment in Time/A mini Adventure

  1.  Go outside 
  2.  Walk until you see a Tree 
  3. Take 20 steps 
  4. Look down at your feet   
I walked until I saw a tree it was the tree in front of the Lucy Phillips building. I walked 20 steps looked down at the snow that is all there was at my feet, snow. More snowflakes than I could count in just that small space.

A moment in time 

I looked around, how far did 20 steps get me? I looked back at the tree, 20 steps had not even gotten me 10 feet from the tree. I had written down the number thinking it would get me much farther but if but the number had barley even gotten me past the sidewalk. If that was 20 steps how far was 100? I began to walk the hundred steps, it got me to the three pine trees near the library 100 more got me to the corner of the library, 100 more got me to the day care 100 more I was almost back home. 

How many times had I walked from that house to the humanities building? I walked to the Humanities building at least ounce a day usually more and I had no idea how many steps it was how many steps had carried me through my life and I hadn't even noticed it? 
There was no way to answer the life question but I could at least figure out how many steps it was from my house to the humanities building, I walked the rest of the way back to my house and began to count from my doorstep.

  • 100 steps to the boys red brick house next door
  • 200 steps to the back of the coffee shop 
  • 300 steps to the church 
  • 400 steps to the middle of the science building 
  • 500 steps back to the corner of the library where i met up with my previous foot prints. 
  • 600 steps to the trio of pine trees 
  • 700 steps to the tree where I started in front of the Lucy Philips 
  • 800 steps to the humanities building and in to Amy's classroom
