CTY Writing Camp Assignment

Did you know that earthlings do something called breathing? It must be hard for them; they have to breathe almost every second. Isnt this just fascinating? They must be using so much energy on breathing that they would be exhausted every day because of it. They have such a confusing body. My grandfather called them walking meatbags, but seriously, breathing? Sucking air from something called lungs? Human bodies are so difficult. Why cant they just be like us, with holes on our backs traping air and turning it into cepia and shooting it down our bodies? We are immortal, we dont die. But human bodies die, besides,we now have to create a word for things that die. Grandfather was wrong, it wasnt just walking meatbags. They should be called walking, mortal (finally I made up a word for things that die), breathing Earth meat bags. They Shant be ever called Earthlings, walking meatbags or anything like that, they will be called mortal, walking, breathing, Earth Meatbags. Yes, that would be the name of those creatures. Breathing is such a hard thing to do. And did you know, there was two ways of breathing? one was through your nose,the other way was through your mouth. I tried and it almost killed me. You could get killed if you tried breathing. Its a horrible thing to do really really horrible. Do mortal, walking, breathing, Earth Meat bags (Oh, I`ll just call them MWBEMB for that.) endure so much agony every time? Oh, MWBEMBS are so weird. I don’t want to be a MWBEMB. It sounds so horrible to be a MWBEHB.
