The Glorious Snow Day… Inside!
Value. When most people hear this word they immediately think about money or something that costs money. Well value is a lot more than just physical money. Its about priceless moments too. I’m talking about peeling off that cover on your phone or just waking up to the smell of bacon. Its these priceless moments that I value. I value them every time they occur and i try to make them occur as much as often.That is what value is to me. I hope that i might have changed someone else’s mine on what value is too.
I guess i should start with the priced items. I chose my Xbox. I chose my Xbox because its pretty much what i spend most of my time on when i’m at my house. I've had it for about 8 years now. I actually have a resounding total of 35 games. I have never broken my Xbox or any game which is surprising to me because all of my friends have at least broken one of there many Xbox’s. I enjoy spending time on my Xbox. It takes my mind off of the real world and put me in a virtual world for a short time. That's why i enjoy my Xbox.
My second item is priceless moment. Mine is always waking up on a snow day. Its just so good. You wake up exhausted, get out of your bed and work yourself to your window. You rub your eyes as you look out into the bright, white wonderland. Now if you were like me then the first thing i would do was go back to bed and sleep for 3 more hours. After that i’d wake up, take a shower, then go downstairs and have a huge breakfast. After that i’d finish any homework i didn't from yesterday then go play Xbox for a bit. Eventually i would have to go shovel but i usually put
that off until about 1 or 2. I just love those day because i can just be lazy and not have to worry about anything.
I guess these items are similar because i really enjoy both. They kind just let me relax and take my mind off the stressfulness in my life. I do both of these inside my house. They’re both really enjoyable. There kind of connected in a sense. Like, i play my Xbox during snow days. I really don’t know how these two would be connected i guess.
These items are different in a lot of ways. Like for instance, i can play my Xbox at anytime really, but snow days only happen once in a while. Snow days involve the weather and my Xbox doesn't. I have to go outside and shovel on snow day but i don’t have to on regular days when i play Xbox.
I value these items in different ways. I value my Xbox by buying more games for it and making sure nothing breaks it. I also put money into it so i can buy add-ons and updates for it. I value snow days in a different way though. I value it by doing special things on that day. Like eating that big breakfast for example. I usually just eat a pop-tart or something. I also get to stay in my junkie clothes all day.
I think value isn't just money. Value is more like valuable moments.
