So when I was in wildwood a few years ago I bought
this spray paint painting and this is what is looks like. I will start off by
telling you the major parts in this. There is a circle that is about the diameter
of the board. Inside the circle there is the USA flag that appears to be the
sky. Also in the circle it the twin towers that show the reflection of the
American flag on the two towers. The reflection isn’t precise it is more like a
watery reflection where it is kind of distorted. Below there are several other
building. There appears to be a straight line of buildings TOWARDS the bottom
where underneath there is a body of water. The water fills the bottom portion
of the circle and at the bottom of the circle the water becomes a waterfall and
flows off the bottom of the circle. The water shows a nice white foam effect
when flowing over the circle, which adds some realistic effect to it. Right
under the row of buildings there is a foggy mist. Behind the twin towers you
will notice a few smaller buildings that show distance effect because they and
they are to the left. They also show the reflection of the flag in the
background. Around the circle you will notice that there are white spots
everywhere outside. The artist I believe was trying to make it appear as though
the circle was in fact a planet. There is a dim red outer circle the surrounds
the bigger circle/ planet to show the atmospheric effect.
It was the beginning of a hard day. It would be full of work, work,
and more work. It started off with me waking up. I woke up with a bit of a headache and not wanting
to do anything. My
hair looked as if I had just got done a pillow fight. It was everywhere. I walked into the well-lit room. The sun filling me with warmth
and I thought maybe this wont be such a bad day after all. It was nearing the time I
needed to leave for work. Hair fixed and ready for work I brought my bike outside and rode off.
The breeze was wonderful; filling my lungs with fresh
air was much needed. I arrived to the job that I had both hated and enjoyed at the same time. Angelo my boss greeted me just
as he does everyday. The smell was the same. A smell that was full of pizza goodness. My boss is a very generous man
and allows me to eat a slice before I get to work. So I take a slice and sit down. I taste the
delicious pizza as it enters my mouth. It fills my taste buds with joy. When I got done
drooling over the delicious pizza I grabbed the some pizza menus and walked to
my destination.
My job requires me to deliver menus to doors, so that hopefully the pizza
shop will get more business. It is a very tedious job. Requiring me to go up and down must go through. With 8$ an hour I get more
money then most people in Philadelphia. Kind of pathetic if you ask me, but ill
take it.
Money in pocket, pizza box in my one hand, it was a
pretty good day at work. I didn’t have any problems. The smell of the pizza was permeating up through my
nose. The hills were
brutal. Making my legs burn with intensity as I pedaled up the large slopes.
Almost home, just 3 more blocks and then I can dig into this awesome pizza. My
hair was being a pain so I flipped it out of my face. BAM! Was all I heard and a car
was all I saw. I stumbled, hand in pain, leg scratched up. I had lost my balance when I
flipped my hair and ran straight into a car. Pain was intense, shooting up my arm. I couldn’t
move anything.
Hurting, throbbing, pain like I never felt before. “Is it broken?” I asked
myself. My
bike was twisted and mangled just as my arm was. I fought through the pain to
pick up my bike and move it out of the street. The pizza box was demolished but
the pizza was still in tact. The pizza was good but my arm wasn’t.
I called
my mom told her I had crashed. Away she went to the spot of my tragic crash. My arm was still in
excruciating pain. The
cuts and scraps that lay all over my leg have no effect on me because the pain
in my arm was so intense. My mom put my bike in the back and we drove those 3 blocks back to my
house. I rested my
arm on my other arm.
No smell, no sound, nothing but pain. I walked into my house.
Suddenly I thought that 16 dollars wasn’t worth this. I never broke a bone so I
couldn’t tell if it was actually broken or not. I have a ton of homework to do and with this pain
I’m not going to get anything done. A two page paper due in 2 days, a 10 page packet due
in 2 days, and even more. I’m in pain and now I’m panicking about all the work that I now have to
do with only one arm at my disposal.
I started with math. I was hungry but there is no
time for food right now. My stomach is growling; mad at me because I am denying it food. The frustration overwhelmed me
and I was not very successful with the math. I didn’t even finish half of the packet. Now, more
pressure lays on me. Demanding that I do more work with so much pain. It wasn’t going to be
a fun next day. I
went to sleep with a brace on my wrist so that my wrist wouldn’t move in my
sleep.
I woke to a mother that demanded my presence, however she wasn’t going to get
it because my arm was in so much pain. It was un bearable. I couldn’t move at all, not a
single part of my body without wanted to scream in pain. Such a pain should not be
forced against someone, not anyone. Still I knew I had a ton of homework that I had to
do.
I got up and wobbled to the kitchen. I got out the cereal and a bowl
to pour it in. I poured the cereal half way just as I usually do. Walked over to the refrigerator
and got milk and continued to pour milk in there until the cereal rose. Just the way I like it. I grabbed a spoon and began
eating the wonderful cinnamon toast crunch as I walked to the table. I wasn’t
very successful with just one arm but I got one spoonful before I reached the
table. I set the bowl
down and enjoyed each and every bite.
The birds were chirping and the sky was blue. It was set out to be a
beautiful day; that I of course could not enjoy. I was forced to suffer indoors and do homework. The hours past and eventually I come to
present. I
sit here in pain TV in background. Still have a lot of math to do. Obviously not done this essay.
Every time I even try to use my thumb for any reason
a sharp pain travels up my arm. Making it impossible to type with that hand. Now I’m in a predicament, one
hand to type, one hand to do everything, and still a lot of homework. Its now 8:26 and I still
haven’t eaten dinner and I am not even half done my math.
What a way to end my weekend. My eyes are heavy, my arm still
hurts and I have school tomorrow. I am supposed to be getting x-rays tomorrow to make
sure that it isn’t broken. Hopefully its not broken but I never broke a bone before. If its not broken I would hate
to know what it feels like if it was broken. I probably wouldn’t be able to move my fingers at
all. The smell of
chicken is starting to fill my house. I sense that dinnertime is coming shortly. I’m starving, my stomach is
growling and I think it is about time to eat some food. A good day at work gone wrong. A new experience in which I
will learn from.
Next time I wont flip my hair.
