HS Essay, tied for 2nd Place: My Secret Daily Pleasure
I’m a high school student, and I always go to school by bicycle. We have a lot of greenery along the route to school even though it is in the city, and there are many catnip plants along the bicycle path. Many sparrows come to eat them, and they were my daily comfort. But recently, I saw that the catnip plants are gone. I think the reason for this is that they were in the way of people walking and riding bicycles in the street. As a result, the sparrows no longer come near. It is disappointing because seeing the sparrows was a secret daily pleasure for me. (108 words) By Ichika A. You can send me a comment or your own story at jaremaga@gmail.com
