OUTLINES
 WRITINGS 

Writing 1: 
Ruby the Elephant was an extraordinary animal, who made different kind of paintings.
Many people stand a great time to see her paintings. It's not only watching her work, the
public needed to wait like two years for watching her pictures. She was an elephant
from Thailand, she came to the Phoenix Zoo in 1974, when she was just a little baby. It
took more time to become the zoo's favorite animal because she was the only elephant.
It looks like in her behavior that she felt really sad that she doesn't had other elephants
like her to play. It was a controversial situation for the zoo. So, they decided to bring
other elephants to play with her, but she refused to play with them, especially of their
big size and are too tough for Ruby. 
One day apparently, Ruby was using an stick or other object like the other animals, but
the zoo employee, Tawny Carlson found that she had a great talent to make different
pictures. In that moment they introduced her to paint. After that, all the employees of
the zoo bought her colors and she started to paint and drawing. The employees had a
nice trait of her famous artist and became the main attraction of the zoo.  
As we can see, maybe she wasn't the first elephant to made paintings, but she could
recognize the colors and know what to do at the moment to paint. That's why she is
considered as an extraordinary elephant artist. It was completely obvious that she was
going to become a greatest artist. 
Writing 2:
I never imagine that living longer could be a reality because after years of
investigations, people finally find the way to live longer. Maybe it sounds great living
longer, but there are some downsides too.
Here I am. I am about to turn 204 years old, and I look healthy and in good shape. I've
been married with the love of my life Nathalie, and we have raised two beautiful sons.
Their names are Benjamin and Celeste, and I've gone through many things. I am going
to start by mentioning the positive memories I have after find the way to live longer.
Every morning I open my eyes slowly as my butler's hologram vigorously wakes me
up. After washed my face, I smell the recognizable aroma of a great breakfast: Fruit
Juice, Benedictine eggs, Crispy bacon, French Toast, and its special cappuccino. The
breakfast as always was tasty. Later, I am going to manage the family business, which
focuses on imports and exports of different kinds of products like tv's, tablets, game
consoles and other things. I arrived punctually at 7 am and I prepared the reunions. In
addition, I needed to supervise the interns and be completely tolerable with them. It
reminds me when I was a student and intern at the same time. The positive thing about it
is that I can use my experience to help and motivate them, because it is not only to be a
great professional, but also about being a better person. 
As I mentioned, there are beautiful and positive things about living longer,
unfortunately as there are positive things, there are also negative things about living
longer. There are moments that you feel like you made everything that you propose, and
you want to stop. Maybe it sounds radical, but it's true there are times that you feel
bored and just wanted to stop living longer, but after humanity found a way to live
longer, there isn't a possibility to live as a simple human. 
In conclusion, living longer has its pros and cons of living longer, but in my case, I have
a beautiful and numerous family, I expand the family business and I travel around the
world. I can say that my mission was accomplished, since my life from my childhood to
my old age has been an exciting journey. In other words, I lived a great life and it's
something worth telling.
