Imagine
Some days, I just don't feel like getting out of bed. Like today, when I find that the red carpet in my room has turned into lava. I go back to sleep, hoping that the problem will fix itself, like when I was driving, and I heard a 'thump-thump' coming from the engine. So I just drove faster. Anyway, when I wake up the second time, the lava is still there, and I still need to shower before school. So I jump onto my dresser, and climb along the wall, out of my room. But to my dismay, the entire hallway is crawling with alligators. So of course I jump from head to head, as fast as I can. Like the time when I was in the Metrodome, and there were people everywhere, and no way around, and I was already late for the game. So when I finally make it to the bathroom, I see that our ugly brown tile has turned into..... quicksand! So I leap as far as I can, like the time when we were walking on that trail, and there was a big hole, and the tour guide said I'd never make it. So I grab onto the shower curtain, and pull myself into the shower. But when I turn on the water, it is really acidic. So I scream, like the time when I was trapped in the glass box, and I could see outside, but they couldn't see me, and I knew they wouldn't ever hear me. So I maneuver my way back to my bedroom, and cry myself to sleep, like the time when we were stranded on the mountain-top, and they said we'd never survive. And we were running out of food.
