Pricey or Priceless: That is the Question by Caulien C.

A value can be anything you want it to be. It could be an object like shoes or clothes or even your happiest moments and thoughts. There are some things that you can put a price tag on and others that seem priceless. Determining which is which and what the difference is the question. It depends on how you think about it. Do you think it can be priced or is it something that can’t be? You decide.

I get all dressed up in my snowsuit, jacket and boots. Find my dc toque and fuzzy mitts. My mom says that we are going to an ice fishing derby at Bakers Narrow. I’m wearing like five different socks because I know my feet are going to get cold. So we are all suited up, so we get all the fishing gear and hop in the car and go.

When we get there we drive onto the ice and park the car among the other cars. As I hop out I feel the rush of cold air hit me smack on the face. Boy, is it cold! So we each grab something and start walking across the ice. When we get to our destination I see my friend Krystal. I give my stuff to my mom and run over to see her. As I’m talking to her we start to walk around to see if any one else was here. Then I see Justine, Dylan and Stephano. That’s when the fun starts.

While Krystal and I were talking to Justine the boys thought it would be a good idea to throw sow balls at us. Right when I was going to turn round and tell them to stop, Dylan threw a snowball and hit me right in the middle of my face. The snow didn’t hurt at all. It actually felt good. Then I got back to reality and thought oh, it’s on. So I start making snowballs and throw them as hard as I can at them.

Right when I was going to throw another snowball Justine tackled me into the snow. I was like oh no she didn’t and pushed her down, HARD. Then everyone started wrestling and taking each other down and face washing each other (throwing snow into each others face). Just the thought and the feeling of freezing cold snow in my face and my friends tackling me was just the best moment ever. It was priceless.

As I’m waiting for the bus one cold morning I take out my iPod and listen to Beverley Hills. As I start to sing along I watch for the bus and watch the cars go by, what a peaceful moment. My iPod is gray and has 2gb. 2gb means that it can hold up to 500 songs. Pretty cool, eh! I’ve also got these gnarly headphones that are an awesome bright green. Just looking at them brightens my day. I found them on the sidewalk when we and my family were walking around Northampton. I was like, sweet new headphones and I didn’t have to pay for it.

I use my iPod only when I don’t have anything to do. For example, if I have an away game for volleyball I’d bring along to listen to it on the bus and also for waiting for the bus in the morning. My iPod has 297 songs, so I still have a long way to go to fill it. It can hold songs (duh), pictures and even audio books which are pretty cool. I have variety of music like Fergie, some rap, Weird Al, and even some Iron Maiden! It’s so cool. If I could price this iPod I would price it in between $50 - $100 because it’s used and it’s got a lot of scratches and may have music people don’t like. Other then that I think its da bomb (but I could still price it).

These two things are a couple of things that I cherish. Friends from Flin Flon attached with snow to the face. Also there is my awesome iPod with its cool features. I don’t think I could give these up even for the world. Just the feeling of my friends gives me the shivers, but the good kind of shivers. With the right amount of snow added to the mixture it just makes the most priceless moment.

I love my iPod and I love the music that it plays. I love my bright green headphones. My iPod is one of my most coolest and prized possession.

I would have to kill myself before I give these two things up (seriously). I think a value is something that you cherish or even love it altogether. But it sometime depends on how you think about the object. I think that anything can be priced but only the really important things are priceless. But, I’m not the one to decide for other people. This is only my opinion. So what do you think?
