interested him, but he couldn't think of anything interesting. He decided that he would play
basketball instead. The next night Keith sat down to work again, but he still couldn't think of
anything interesting. So he listened to music and played video games instead. The next few
days went much the same. He told himself that he wasn't interested in anything, and then he
read comic books. He watched movies. He read about classic cars. Still, he couldn't think of
any interesting topics for his paper, Keith was worried now because it was due very soon, and
he didn't even have a topic. He tried to think of something that he found interesting, but again
he couldn't. He played his guitar and cooked a meal for his family instead. He loved to cook
At last the due date was here and Keith still didn't even have a topic. By now he had
accepted that he would fail. "If only I could have found a topic that interested me," he told
himself.

Walking down this street was so empty. It's kinda nice though. I feel like I'm walking in an magical forest. It's calm, beautiful and I enjoy it. As I walked further, I saw a house peeking through the tall trees. I was getting closer and closer and saw how enormous it really is. Standing by the mansion's gate made me feel tiny like Alice in Wonderland. The exterior are painted white and their windows are as tall as the trees. Their beautiful and large garden was spread throughout from left to right. In the middle, you can see a huge water fountain just a few meters in front their door where the birds chirp as they drink and bathe. I walked a few steps after I passed the mansion and saw another gate that was connected to the mansion. There were cars parked in there. Their shiny exterior reflected the sunlight as it hits them. The dark red car which almost looks like the color of a cherry caught my eye. It was exquisite and it was the most unique thing I've ever seen. I was left in shock how rich these people are. They're like living the life of royals. How good their life must be.​
