Why Did Jobe Want To Swim In The 1800's
In the 1800’s there was a whale named Jobe and he loved to swim in the warm oceans waters. One day while Jobe was swimming with his pod he saw a mysterious shiny object and went down to observe it. The closer Jobe got the shiny object the more mesmerized by it and the closer he would swim to it, until he was directly in front of it. Jobe was so close he wanted more than anything to reach out and touch the object, but he had this gut feeling that he shouldn’t and he should go back to his pod right away. Even though Jobe had this feeling he let the object get the best of him and reached out and touched it anyway.
As soon as Jobe touched the object it turned into an octopus named Xavier. When Jobe saw Xavier he was terrified and wanted to turn around and swim back to his pod, but for some reason he couldn’t move at all. When Jobe finally mustered up the courage to ask Xavier why he couldn’t move Xavier responded with an evil laugh and said “You are under my presence and you can only move if I say.” Then Xavier went on about how he would let Jobe go if he got a pearl from the giant oyster, also known as big O, that lived in the deepest and darkest park of the

Jobe and Ollie tried to ignore the eels and keep swimming but the eels surrounded them. Jobe knew he had to get rid of them or they would be dead in about five seconds. So Jobe did the only thing he knew to do he let out an ear-piercing wail. As soon as the eels heard they swam away as fast as possible. When Jobe and Ollie were by them selves they started laughing uncontrollably. When Jobe and Ollie were almost to the deepest and darkest part of the ocean where big O lived, two sharks started swimming over Jobe and Ollie. Jobe was so afraid they were going too attack that he let out all of his water through his blowhole which blew the sharks so far they couldn’t even see them any where. So they continued towards their

    We kept on walking for the whole day until sundown through the flat valley, stopping every once and a while to rest. Then we saw a lake with many fish and mastodons in the distance. We threw our nets into the water, while some people watched the mammoths. We walked towards the mastodons after catching some fish. The mastodons started screaming and I thought ‘Did they see us?’…

    I imagine myself, walking slowly past relics of 20th century post-modernism. The corridor is spaced perfectly; zigzagging up the pathway I catch a glimpse of each work drifting onward towards my fixation. To the left, Warhol’s iconic Campbell’s Soup Can, diagonally across the hallway David Salle’s Good Bye D is suspended. Further and further my eyes wander from left to right, each passing artifact as appealing as the last. With time I make it to the end of the hall. A rounded archway serves as a porter. Am I ready to pay the toll and pass on? Should I turn back around and take one more look at the hanging pieces in the hallway passed? Maybe I should. I don’t know if I’m ready to witness such a beast. Then again, I am here for a reason. Google Image’s thumbnails can only satisfy my curiosity for so long; I need to see this whale. As I move forward, taking a breath of cold, dry, air, the entire room is white as snow. Draped like a linen curtain, the leviathan comes into view. Thin cable wires are bolted to the top of the atrium, my eyes follow with gravity. The cables are fastened intricately to smooth, yellowed bone. My vision broadens. I am awe-struck. Each limb bigger than the next, I cannot even rationalize the size of it. The shadow cast on the floor makes the dimension contrast even more distinct. I’ve stood below such ocean-going mammals before. However, something about this carcass differs from those I’ve seen as a youth in the Natural History Museum, and the New York Aquarium. I look up and see comparable features; The complex fins, the grand rib cage, the broad tail. But, this inexplicable arrangement does not just instill childlike wonder but commands much deeper consideration. A complex crisscrossing of carbon-colored circles cloak the skeleton, protruding branches of rock-hard cartilage and marrow drip of fluidity and gesticulation. I stand beneath the corpse reveling at its magnitude, but the…

    As a reaction I lunged for it and I lost my balance and before I knew it, I was in the water. I cried out hoping someone would hear me and I tried to swim after the racing yacht but after I had swam about fifty feet, I began to realize there was no way I was going to catch up to it. I stopped in the water and I heard a high screaming sound, the sound of an animal in an extremity of anguish and terror. I didn’t even recognize the animal.…

    Flippy said freightened. Then just like a SNAP! Flippy dashed and bashed, zig and zag, whish and swished, through the reef. As he looked back to see irf the killer whale was gone, he hit a reef, right on the top of his head, but he is alright. Then the killer whale caught up with flippy and saw, a big hole on the top of his head, and the killer whale said,” What happened?…

    A small ripple ran across the surface of the water where he had been. I called out his name, hoping that he had just swam underwater for a second. There wasn't a response. I swam out to where he was, feeling slimy strips of sea weed brush against and entangle my feet as I cut through the water as fast as I could.…

    I stood with my feet firmly planted as the old man held onto my arm, the swift current lapping at his feet. His arms moved through the air rapidly and his eyes scanned the water intensely, looking for anywhere the current was obstructed. Suddenly, with a slight flick of his wrist, he cast his fly into a pocket created by a rock near the bank. Within seconds, a small, brightly colored trout rose to the surface to engulf the fly, and was quickly brought to hand. Joe turned to me after releasing the fish and said, “Now see son, that's how it’s done.”…

    With the arrival at the shore many looked excited yet Kelly looked worried. Planted on all fours, kissing the sand he looked up and saw something, his jaw literally ten foot underground. Many continued to celebrate yet Kelly stood up, he did not know what he was looking at. Mesmerised by the event that just occurred yet wondering what was in front of him. He did not know what he was looking at, he questioned whether he has still alive, standing there in absolute confusion, yet so was the other creature he was looking at.…

    In the darkness, it was cold and desolate. When I arrived in front of the cave, a bright light shone into my eyes. I staggered back and carelessly slipped and fell into the river. I didn’t know how to swim, and i knew it was forlorn to seek help because it was midnight at that time. When I was drowning, I seemed to understand what “Curiosity kills the cat” was.…

    Sometimes, we left two people at the camp, and went to discover some other interesting places. During one of these trips, we had to cross a deep and narrow river which had such a strong current that we could not swim across it. This place was wild and of course there was no bridge. We solved this problem with the two planks of wood. Half of us crossed the river without fear but when my turn came, the fear thrilled though my veins. I was not a good swimmer therefore it was a serious problem for me. I tried not to be afraid and said to myself, “yes, you can do it”, and started going.…
