Post #5 - Starry, Starry Night

• The night was surprisingly clear of clouds and full of stars. Everyone was outside, on the roof of The Maitland, or gazing out of the window. Suddenly, a shooting star darts across the sky, just like in the movies. It was big and bright, and lit up the whole sky in an instant. Everyone looked up and wished, hoping that their wish would come true in the future. It was a glimmer of hope, since the death of Mr. Evans was still taking a toll on the people.
  Veronica sat on the sidewalk (she was a runaway after all) and was the only one who didn’t wish for anything. She knew a thing or two about being careful about what you wish for. Linh, still frazzled by the new knowledge of Mr. Evans’ scars from years ago, couldn’t leave her house. She had too much information from the autopsy to look over. Yorick and Frederick, even though they were nowhere close to each other, were both outside looking up, when they suddenly saw the same, familiar figure walking in the dark of the night.

Due date: January 28th, by class time. You should include the following: 1) explicitly state a wish--however big or small-- that will come to fruition in blog post #11. 2) Should mention the star in someway. Metaphorically or literally, (in your mind, on TV, in the sky, etc. )
