Today marks the beginning of my blog on the internet. My 2 sisters are coming home for the winter break and our break started early because of the winter storms sweeping through the United States. I was amazed when my mom told me that it was snowing in Vegas for the first 30 years. But she took it seriously as an ill-fated omen of power outages and so began preparing by storing the food and checking everything in our refrigerator. I wasn’t really paying attention to anything she was saying, and instead I was daydreaming of when my 2 sisters would come home for Christmas. Meanwhile my mom was again lecturing me for spacing out when she was instructing me.
Today is finally the day that my sister is coming back and it is also Christmas Eve. But I couldn’t stay idle for the entire day until Christmas and so my mother found a great way to keep both of us busy. She quickly forced on my ugly yellow raincoat and my embarrassing girl boots and told me to shovel the walk while taking poses for her family pictures. For hours I continued this manual labor in the heavy snow while my mom just happily stood by me taking pictures of me shoveling snow. I don’t know but I get really mad when somebody secretly tries to take pictures of me.
Is that a flaw or is that natural?
