So I am sitting in class with pencil that I feel is too sharp, and I don’t know if this happens to other people that they sometimes feel that a pencil is too sharp (weird to think because I put it into a pencil sharpener to make it sharp) but it bugs me because I have accidentally stabbed myself with a pencil too many times(one time my pencil slipped and made a cut that went all the way down my pointer finger), so I never carry a really sharp pencil. So here I am in class with this pencil thats way too sharp for me, so when I was told that we going to be writing it was exactly what I wanted/needed. So with pencil in hand I find out that we are supposed to write about is whatever is on our head at the time, and I draw a blank, I don’t know what to write about. Time started to pass by and my pencil was still just as sharp as it was in the beginning. Then I came up with the idea “ I am going to write about why I need to write”. I writing about that the only reason I was writing was to unsharpen my pencil and as I wrote what I thought was going to be the concluding sentence, I realized my pencil was still to sharp. So I wrote random stuff until my pencil was good enough but it was in the middle of a sentence and how weird would it be to stop in the middle of

Ian, I understand why you don't like sharp pencil. I stab my hand every time I reach for my phone in the pocket because I usually have a pencil. I Also have the problem of drawing a blank when i'm asked to write whats on my mind. Even today for write for five I had to write about liking when we are given a topic to write about instead of just writing whats on our minds.

I didn't have enough words in my comment so I'm adding this to it. If you've read the bestselling "Fault in Our Stars" there's a book within the book that finishes in the middle of a sentence too! And then later John Green, the author, was asked in a reader Q and A whether or not he thought it was okay to end a book in the middle of a sentence. He answered with something along the lines of "no of course it's not okay for an author to--" I thought that was very clever too and your post reminded me of it. Okay, this is enough words.
