After the previous post and our discussion about Autumn the giraffe from the Greenville Zoo, write from the perspective of a giraffe.
You can be 
Autumn, the giraffe who the world is anxiously waiting on to deliver her calf, Walter, her mate who has been separated from her during this last stage of pregnancy, or the unborn calf who unbeknownst to him/her will be taking its first breaths in front of hundreds of thousands of viewers. 

I am the unborn calf in my mother Autumn's belly; what she don't know is that I am a girl! I already love my mother. I hear all the people who watch her say awe I can't wait till Autumn has her baby; which is me(: I can't wait to be born and see my mother and all of the people.

 BHS:  Look at yesterday's assignment (Thurs. 10/11) and now that the debate is over. Do some research on news sites (cnn, msnbc, fox news, etc) and tell me what you think about the debate and the coverage of it. Who did better?  There was a lot of talk about it being very heated, confrontational, and even at times rude. Do you agree?
Also - it is called a DEBATE - isn't it suppose to be a little heated because the two debaters don't agree on the issues. That's why we have debates. Do you think the public opinion and the media have been overly sensitive about the candidates' performances?

I honestly do not care about the debate.I think Joe Biden did better in the debate because the topics he talked about I agree with. I do not agree with them being so rude to each other but I like how they were a little confrontational. Yes, debates are suppose to be heated; but, I think the public opinion and media have been overly sensitive about the candidates' performance.
