It
was the night before a snowstorm and I knew the next day I would be able to
make a decent amount money. I figured the only circumstance that would cut into
my profit was if school was not canceled; therefore, limiting the hours I could
start shoveling snow. I went to sleep that night and woke up around 7 a.m. to
Fox news and realized school was canceled. I started to begin my day as usual with a
shower and bagel. As I finished my bagel the phone rang.
I
scurried to the phone and said,” Hello.”
“Hey
Hen, do you want to play the Xbox today?” answered my friend Stephon.
I
thought to myself, if this isn’t temptation I don’t know what is.
“Actually,
I was thinking about shoveling snow,” I replied.
“Well
can I come along.’
“Yes,”
I said while hanging up the phone.
After
the telephone call I frantically hurried to find my snow suit and ski mask. I
ran to my room and tore my dressers apart until I was fully dressed. I then
proceeded to the garage to retrieve my shovel and make an exit from the house
by sliding under the garage doors before they crushed me. As I stood up from
the ground I saw nothing but snow flurries in every direction. I walked to the
end of the driveway just to hear my mother yell” there is a blizzard warning,
come back inside.
