Lights Out

I can remember the one day that my power at house went out. I can say that it was not fun. I could not believe it, I could not use the house phone, play my Wii system, or use the computer. This all happened when Hurricane Isbella hit back in 2005. The day when Isbella hit was both scarely and horrible. About a few hours into the storm the power at my house goes off. I was upstair in my room, when it was dark, when the power goes off, and I was right in the middle race in a game called Mario Kart Double Dash. If the power at my house goes out again I would go crazy because I could not use the computer, I could not play my Wii system, and I could not use the phone.

The first reason I would crazy about is not using the computer, because first, I would not be able to type up reports for my English class or talk to my friends on Facebook. If the computer was out, my life would be bording because I play video games on the computer, when my mother or my grandmother are using it first, and beside I like using the computer. The other reason I go crazy is because I could not type up essay for my English class, which make me fail, because I am a bad speller. I know when I use the computer that spell check when come in play.

The second reason I would crazy is because I could not play my Wii system. If I could not play my Wii, and that means I would not have a place to escape. I mean my Wii is in my room, and that is where I go when I do not deal with my grandfather. It is all thanks my Wii I can get away from grandfather. If that did not work that would mean I would have to deal with his mouth, and that is something that no one in my family would like to face now and days.

The third reason I would crazy is because I could not use my house phone for calling help or calling my friends up to see if the want to have talk so that way they and I have someone to talk to. If my phones did not work I would not be able to call for help as well, because what were to happen if one of my grandparents were to hurt from falling down or would not wake the nexts day. That would be bad for many reasons.

When the power went off at my house, I was scared and had no clue what to do. When this happened my life was boring and it was like a monster that I could not control anymore. I mean I love using the computer, talking on the phone, and playing my Wii system. Without those items in my life it would boring. I hate when the power goes off at my house. But does have //advantages, like sending time with my family by playing bord games with them. The basic games like "Battle Ship" and "Uno." That was both a fun day and scaredy// experience for me.
