When I first woke up, I found myself covered in a sticky red substance. I was terrified, but then I realized it wasn't blood; it was just red paint. I looked around the room, noticing that there were paint cans and newspapers covering the floors. Then I noticed the toppled ladder. I eventually realized that I must have fallen while painting, knocked unconscious, and was just now recovering.

When I think about what it means to be a teacher, I think about three qualities: patience, knowledge, and a battery that never runs out. It takes patience to deal with smelly, rude kids all day and not lose your temper. It takes knowledge to teach your subject. Lastly, it takes a never-ending battery to have the energy to keep up with youths. That's what it means to me to be a teacher.

In my opinion, the best food is food cooked at home. I've enjoyed a lot of delicious meals at restaurants from Paris to New York City, but I've never found a dish that, with a little Internet research and practice, I can't make better at home. Sure, it takes time, but it saves money and acts as a great way to spend time with my partner. Cooking at home is always the best option for scrumptious meals.

What's better exercise, digging holes or swimming? Both are full-body exercises. When you dig holes, you use your arms, core, and legs to push the shovel and toss the clumps away. When you swim, you use your arms to stroke, legs to kick, and core to turn and breathe. On the other hand, digging holes gives you a final product you can be proud of, the hole, whereas swimming produces nothing useful but the exercise itself. That's why digging holes is better than swimming: you just never know when you might need a hole.

What's the best way to deal with a monster hunter? When I find myself cornered by a monster hunter, I use three strategies to stay safe: hide, wait, and attack. When the monster hunter first appears, the best thing to do is hide; they don't know where you are, but you know where they are. Then you wait to make them doubt their information and start to wonder if you're even here. Finally, when their confidence starts to waver, you jump out and bury your giant praying mantis arms in their soft, wet flesh. Hooray! You survived the monster hunter!

Who would have thought that the end of the world started with a dance? Two young lovers, swaying at a school dance, both infected with different strains of pink eye which combined into what we now call THE PINK UNDEATH. It spread like wildfire, wiping out whole communities, whole countries, until there was almost no one left. Almost no one... but I'm left, and I'm going to survive these pink eye monsters armed with my trusty two-finger poke.
