The Storm

The hurricane was a positive and negative effect on my break. It was a bitter-sweet storm (more sweet than bitter). I had no school for a week because of the hurricane Issac. Although most of Baton Rouge lost power, I was one of the few who could enjoy cool air conditioning and funny movies while Hurricane Issac strolled by. I had a wonderful lunch and dinner while the rain pounded on my windows. I sat on the couch looking outside. It looked muggy, and my pool almost overflowed, but I didn't mind because I was watching the show Lost with my family while I wore sweatpants because they air was a bit chilly. I enjoyed unspoiled yogurt because my refrigerator was working quite properly. These were the good times of the supposed terrible Hurrican Isaac. The bad times of the hurricane were that I had no internet or cable.... for a day and a half. I couldn't go on the computer and check what everyone was up to, but I did have my iPhone, so I wasn't too devastated.

The conversation I had with my friends, when I saw them, was "You lost power?... That's terrible. I didn't!" I don't assume the enjoyed my playful banter. It was enjoyable to describe my time with power during the hurricane to my Youth Director because he had lost power, and he was very upset he lost it because he was very hot during the whole time there was no A/C in his house. I enjoyed my time during he storm, but i'm sure other people didn't.
