Writing in a Style

You arrive at school and find that there is a big mess in the sofa area. Someone has left garbage from take out food, some clothing, textbooks, half-empty cups, and various papers scattered all over the area. Right away emails start to fly around in the discussion of the mess. For this journal, create three short email messages that might be sent by different people at school to discuss the mess. You can choose any three people from school that you want: teacher, student, parent, staff, or administrator. Write the “email” in a style that reveals the personal qualities of the person sending it. Try to imitate their speech patterns, tone, and diction.

To all PAS student:
  This is ridiculous! You guys are already middle and high school students! And it's almost the end of the school year! Yet you are still so irresponsible? What are you going to do in the future if you are so irresponsible? In the future, id you are this irresponsible, you will never be successful! There are other students out there, working way harder than you! Whoever made this mess, and you know who you are, you better come and clean this! I don't want to see this mess still here when I come to school tomorrow. Is it clear?

To _____:
  Hey, have you got the email that ______ sent? I got it, and you know, she sounds so~ angry. Did you make the mess? I don't think so. You're too responsible and serious. I can almost certainly bet that you and ______ didn't make it. I didn't too, but I know some of the people. Most of them are juniors, but don't tell them that I said that. They might be upset. Anyways, about...


To all hardworking PAS students:
  Good day! PAS is one of the best schools that I have ever been to. The students here are hardworking, smart, but also knows what's fun and how to play. The students here are the best and aim to become even better. However, before we are able to achieve that, we must learn to become responsible students. This is very important. I want all of the people who have created the mess in front of the office at the sofa area to go and clean the mess without people pushing them. There must be a leader amoung these students! If that mess is not cleaned up, then I will have to unfortunately give the whole high school division a detention. So please go and clean up!
