I started writing \r\nthis piece, and I realized I was supposed to write a different type of speech; after this, I decided I worked hard on it so I\u2019ll submit it. \r\nWriting poetry, writing songs, writing books\/stories, painting, and drawing zentangles have always been hobbies of mine. For as \r\nlong as I can remember, poetry has not only been something that is easy for me it has also been really fun coming up with these \r\npoems. When I have free time, I am usually writing or working on the zentangle I have on my bedroom wall. I am inspired by all of \r\nmy teachers to work hard so that I have time to enjoy the finer things in life like art. One of my biggest inspirations was my art \r\nteacher in 3rd grade Ms. Pucket. She not only taught me what a zentangle was but she also taught me that everything can be art and \r\nthat art can be something calming not something you get mad over because you can\u2019t do it right. Ms. Pucket taught me that if I am \r\ntrying imitate some kind of drawing to stop and think why because if I am making art, it better be for me and by me because that is \r\nwhat true art is, not imitating someone else.\r\n<\/span><\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
