Lost and found


We all lose something; it could be a favourite CD, a game for play station, a precious jewel or jewellery, toys or a very good movie.
As for me I lose a lot of things. So many things in fact that I can’t count how many.
It’s just really annoying, if you know what I mean, cause you just place something down for a minute or two, and go off to do something, then you come back and you can’t find it.
It is REALLY irritating if its something important, like your homework or essay for school, or even a shoe!


It can get really frustrating, sometimes so much that it just re-appears at the last minute, and then your happy.


A lot of times for me, when I am looking for something I EVENTUALLY find it, but mostly it disappears from my mind and becomes the past. Nothing.


I have a kind of lost and found story; only I never found what I lost.

Well, I had gone to a fair, and purchased a birthstone, it was purple and had beautiful crystals on it.
Well, I took it to school, to do for show and tell. And well, as you could guess, I lost it.
It was so easy to lose! One minute I had it in my hands…then I put it down and leave it for only a moment and the next thing I know I come back for it and its gone!

But maybe that’s my problem. I leave things alone and don’t look after them good. Other wise I need a check up on my glasses.

Lots of people lose things! My dad is always losing his keys, like any other dad would, and my mum is losing some of her jewellery. But half of the time it’s my fault because I fidget with a lot of my parent’s possessions and items.
Even my friends lose things, especially at school (or for our parents, at work). I’m losing my ruler all the time in my BAG!
Heh, strange huh? Goes to show if my bag is that messy, you definitely don’t want to visit my bedroom.

Its also strange how easy it is to lose things, and yet how hard it is to find them, I bet even the tidiest person on the planet would lose something in their life, but that would be a little bit hard to imagine when there isn’t hardly ANYONE on the planet who is tidy, unless of course you’ve met my mum.
Then it wouldn’t be so hard

There was also another time when I lost something I really liked, but happily that time I had found what I lost and so I was really happy.

I can remember having lost a drawing I drew. I think I know what most of you are thinking, “What’s so good about a drawing? Draw another picture”
Well, for starters, I really admired that picture, and I didn’t do it on a piece of paper, in fact I did it on my computer. Guess how long it took me? 4 hours…. and that is without colouring it. Now I don’t really like computers…for saving pictures I mean.
Well…at least I found the picture. But its kinda messed. That goes to show ANYTHING can be lost ANYWHERE, including computers.

So no ones perfect and keeping things safe.

But what if we are supposed to lose things? When say this I mean maybe when we lose something it helps us find other things we have lost a long time ago, Or just yesterday.
If you think of it that way, then it probably comes to a pattern; we lose something, but find another thing. Find something, and then lose something else.
So yeah, you can think of it that way.

Other wise its random.

Most of the time when you lose something its not important, but when it comes to fines and due homework, then you can panic, because they cost you, and not always in money.

They are important because if you do not turn them in you may get a bad grade for school, which may effect what job you wish to be in when you are older. As for fines the more days you forget to return your library books the bigger the fine is the more you have to pay, and so you slowly get less and less money

So it is always handy to organise things to at least have things neat and to be able to find them easier.

So right now I’m starting to get tired of the words ‘lost and found’ and ‘the next thing I knew’
Because you’ve been hearing it a lot with all the other essays about ‘lost and found’
And I’m starting to run out of ideas on what to say, so here is what I say in three sentences to finish my speech:

Personally I think we don’t lose things…. we either drop or misplace them and then they disappear from our eyes, But are still there. That doesn’t make sense thought. Usually we drop it. Or leave it behind somewhere.
But what ever it is, it always will become lost…and then found.
