Prompt 1: ''Your character is cleaning their room (or some other room in their home) when they find a bunch of old photographs. Write about what they remember happening during these pictures or what they meant. Write about old friends that were seen in them or maybe deceased family members. ''

Paige sat on the floor of her bedroom as she pulled out boxes from underneath her bed. She wasn't entirely sure what was in these boxes since they had been shoved away fro years. Since she was planning on moving out of the apartment soon, she decided it was best to go ahead and see what all she could find. She opened the lid of the first box and found a large pile of old notebooks and binders. Groaning loudly, Paige sifted through each one in hopes of maybe finding little notes she wrote to her friends during class. In her Chemistry binder, she found a crazy amount of notes in the flap in the back. She flipped through the notes, laughing at each thing she and Lauren wrote each other. She laughed at their conversations about hot guys in their classes. Putting the letters in a pile, she put the notebooks back in the box and decided to get rid of it soon. She pulled out yet another box and opened the lid, revealing a few photo albums.

Paige took out the first album on the top and began to slowly flip through it. She noticed each picture of herself and her twin brother Patrick. There were toddler pictures of them with both their parents together, and Paige couldn't help but remember when her parents lived together. She could still recall the confusion of her five year old self when she was told her parents were divorcing. She hadn't understood it then and it didn't bother her. However, what did bother her was no longer being around her mother. She could still remember always missing her mom and how awful the feeling was. Sighing, she got to the end of the album and shut it. She pulled out a second one, and immediately she could tell that it was after the divorce. Inside were photos of Paige and Patrick playing sports together. They had both joined the same sports teams - flag football, soccer, basketball, everything. Paige laughed at the pictures where she was shoving her brother around during a sports game. One photo was of them during a soccer game and Paige had shoved Patrick out of her way so she could get the ball. Paige rolled her eyes at herself, laughing about how her competitive nature.

Soon enough, Paige had glanced through each photo album. They had all went up to her high school graduation and she loved seeing each picture of her and Lauren. Paige didn't miss her childhood and teenage years in the slightest bit, because now she was loving life. Sure, it still had its ups and downs, but in the grand scheme of things, she wasn't trapped in the past. She was just taking a little stroll down memory lane and laughing at it all. In her mind, Paige was already planning on purchasing a photo album soon and putting photos of her college years in there just for her future self.

Prompt 2: ''Write a short journal entry that your character might write if they had one. This can be about their day, feelings, or just about anything. This is basically just a wildcard prompt. ''

Dear Journal,

It was just another long day at work again. It was crazy busy though as everyone rushed in and out of the restaurant. Holidays such as Mother's Day can always be crazy days for business. I felt like I was never able to even catch my breath because of all the scrambling about in the kitchen. There were people shouting orders and mistakes being made. At one point, all the crazy got to me and I ended up screaming at the people working under me. Of course, I have my own boss - I'm not the head honcho yet. I think they all hate me now though from my yelling. It's not my fault though! It's what happens when people drive me up the wall! I could barely focus on anything because each order was simply a blur in my mind. Maybe this kitchen life isn't for me, but I do love it a lot. I'll figure it out, I guess.

Of course, I've got a lot of stuff to figure out. First of all, I cannot freaking sleep at night! I love Maddy - Lauren and Connor's baby, but she's driving me crazy! There's just so many long nights filled with baby cries and then Lauren and Connor are always talking in baby voices. At first it was okay, but now it's insane. I love all of them, but I am not the mother and I do not need to stay up all night for a baby that I don't have to take care of. I want to move out of the apartment and I'm sure they'd love to have the place to themselves so they can have a little normal family without that weird girl living in the room next door. I've been spending the night over at Brooke and Jaime's which is just across the hall. Most of the time Jaime is working night shift at the art gallery, so I can actually get some sleep. Whenever he's there, he's just snoring so loudly that I want to shove my pillow over his face and make him stop. I need to get him one of those things to make him stop snoring so I can sleep. If not, I'm gonna be on the run for killing him in his sleep. He also grew a beard for some reason? Like, it's the dumbest thing. I hate it. He says he feels manly and cool with his beard, but I think he looks like a stupider than usual. But still, I want my own place. As great as Jaime is, I don't want to really live with him right now. That'd be kind of weird for some reason even though we've known each other for years. It's just weird, in my opinion. I don't know. I'm weird.

Anyway, I guess that's really it. Nothing exciting ever happens to me.

Sincerely,

Paige Siobhan
