Episode 2

So this is the second episode of 5 minute writtings!

So everyone knows Madonna is crazy, great performer but still crazy. And celebraties do crazy and stupid things, just like normal people, but they always blow it up into crazy proportions. So reacting badly to a gift should not have been blown into that crzy of a proportion! Everyone receives gift that they either hate or will never use. And sometime, in order to not hurt their feeling, we grin and bear it and say thanks you. Then that gift will stay in a closet somewhere and gather dust.

I can remember when I got the most ugly sweater I had ever seen for Christmas one year from my grandparents. It was from northern reflections, and it had cost them $40. They had left the tags on it. I was in my gothic/emo phase in highschool, and had specifically asked for a anything black, possibly a lacy dress, or you know black clothing. But the sweater they got me was bright, obnoxious red. Not even a pretty rose red, or blood red, but this ugly maroon red that made me cring.

I decided to be a smart kid and thanks them any way, but just to be a pain, I pulled the tag off, handed it to them, and said “next year, you could just give me the $40.”
