Poking, Cutting, and Scooping the Surface by Rylee Breeden
The students were tasked to craft a story about a famous threesome, be they historical, whimsical, or from the kitchen cabinet.
RYLEE…thoughtfully applies the functional properties of the knife, fork and spoon to her own development as an individual
Poking, cutting, and scooping, are all things that a fork, a knife, and a spoon are capable of. All of these are things I try to carry with me. There are appropriate times to use these utensils. Then there will be a great meal and you will have all of these utensils to use together.
Poking the surface. For me to get to where I want to get in life, I have to at least poke the surface.I have to at least make some effort, I have to make a breakthrough. Of course, if I just stare at my food, it will never get to my mouth. If I don’t make the effort.Then I’ll always be hungry for success. So I stick my fork in my food, and I poke the surface.
Cutting the surface. My fork has made holes in my food, so therefore I’ve broken the surface apart. Now I just need to go deeper. I need to make more efforts to get the food to my mouth. I need to make a bigger hole so I can scoop my food. A doorway to success.
Scooping in and taking a chunk out. I have a doorway to success. All I have to do is reach in and use the potential that the spoon holds. Entering myself in the doorway of success to get what I want,to get where I want, and how I want it to happen, requires effort. Scratching, cutting, and scooping are all steps that I need to make to reach the success that I desire.
