I was doing everything before hand already, i started this a year ago to be honest, i just had been memorizing my essays, and remembered the creative writing, i couldn't think of one since trials anyway so i just looked through my old usb and found this, hence asking for some more tips about it to know what i can improve on

Guess that's just each teachers different perspective. Anyone who has read the entire thing: what do you think?

To be honest, it's balls..... Admittedly, I'm horrible at creative writing, but this is a new level.

Try and make it a shorter time period, so basically your reflection period at the start should be the whole story, or something along those lines.
and don't tell the reader '10 minutes later', '2 hours later' it's boring.
explore a max 10 minute period, but in great depth...makes the imagery a lot more vivid and markers love that shit...
