     It was the day of the big blizzard and I had never seen it snow so much!  Everything was postponed, so I had to wait until tomorrow to play my big basketball game.  It was the championship, and the winner of this game would hold the first place title in the whole county.  The day looked dark and dreary.  I was so sad that I started to feel depressed.  My friends weren't arriving at my house because their parents wouldn't let them come over.  It started snowing harder.  I hoped we would defeat the other team tomorrow and win the basketball game!
