Entry #1

This fruit is just over the top. First of all, the color is unique in comparison to other vegetation. But also, it has features that resemble scales. I can see why it’s called the “Dragon fruit.” This fruit reminds me of a rose. I think it’s because of the similar color alongside the peddle-like features that give me that thought. This fruit looks so odd that I wonder if animals feel comfortable eating this in the wild. It disappoints me to see such a bright fruit begin to rot on my desk. But before that, however, I would love to see how it looks on the inside.

Entry #2

Now that my Dragon fruit is getting more squishy, I can tell it’s time is coming to an end. Although it’s growing old, it still retains it’s gorgeous color. Before this fruit rots too much,  I want to see how it looks like on the inside. I cut it in half and the first thing I notice is the mixture of black seeds in a white background. This sight makes me think of a night sky with inverted colors. As if the sky took the color of the stars, and the stars take the darkness of the sky. This really is a beautiful sight to see. I take a closer look and there are a bunch of randomly placed strings. I wonder if these are like the veins of the fruit. I also can’t help but notice how perfectly split the red and the white are. With all this, I can easily say the inside is much more mesmerizing than the outside. Although the Dragon fruit has a beautiful red skin, the inside just leaves me with way more questions. I can tell that when it’s time to throw my Dragon fruit away, I will have the feeling of unanswered questions being thrown out.
