Sense of Place

  Da-hyun Yang

I will introduce the place of my cousin's dog, lango. The size of his house is very much similar to the toilet bowl. It has a blue roof, and its shape of the top is not sharp but curved. And the color of its body which is under the roof is a bright grey. The roof has horizontal dark-blue stripes and the body has vertical dark-grey stripes. Therefore the stripes of these two are perpendicular to each other. This house is made of plastic, so when I knocked the side of the house, the pounding sound resounded through the lango's house. Inside the house, there is a red cushion. Even though my cousin washed it regularly, it has unforgettable smell of urine. To know the atmosphere inside his house, I put my head inside. It was very tiny, of course, but being surrounded by the scent of lango's shampoo and air freshener, his house gives off a feeling of coziness.

  1. Hi, this is Jean Park. What I liked about your writing is that you tried to describe every senses from Lango's house. I could definitely see what lango's house look like, what sounds I can hear and also the smell. The improvements could be, at the first sentence, I think it's better to say introdue lango's house. Also it would be nice if you change some words.

    I will introduce the house of my cousin's brown dachshund dog whose name is Lango. The size of his house is very much similar to the toilet bowl.

The roof has horizontal dark-blue stripes and the body has vertical dark-grey stripes. Therefore the stripes of these two are perpendicular to each other.
