Story Made With Emojis

        The craziest thing happened a few days ago. I had went into town to run some errands, and I was feeling very impatient that day. I don’t know why, I just woke up and didn’t feel like dealing with anything. I was cruising around town when I came to a stoplight. But not just a stoplight, it was a traffic jam. There were around 11 cars in front of me. Honking, yelling, and pounding were the only things I could hear. I didn’t bother looking at what the hold up was. Instead, I reached over to the other seat and grabbed a handful of french fries that I had bought from McDonald’s earlier. They were still burning hot, but they’re better that way.
        As I was waiting, I was going through a list in my head of what I wanted to do today. I wanted to go to Walmart to pick up some groceries, and then hopefully get my hair trimmed. Little did I know, that my favorite salon had been shut down a couple of days ago, due to it ‘not being sanitary enough.’ That made me a little sad, only because I had been going there for almost my whole life. Five more minutes passed, and I got kind of bored. I decided to plug my aux cord into my phone and listen to music. I rolled my windows down and turned it up as loud as it could go. Because of the loud music, I couldn’t hear the upset drivers complaining in their cars.
        After a little while, I noticed something really strange. I turned down my music and peeked my head out of the car window. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. At the very front of the traffic jam, there was a horse and a carriage! It must’ve been what was holding up the line. I watched as the horse trotted forward, going kind of slow. Since the horse was moving, cars started moving as well. I heard whoops and hollers from thankful drivers behind me. I’d say that was one of the strangest things I have ever experienced in a traffic jam.

  1. Awesome story! How did you get this emoji prompt? Did your teacher assign it to your or did you find it on the internet? I liked that you described things, such as your fries being hot and that you couldn't hear the upset drivers complaining because your music was so loud! This was very fun to read!
    Happy blogging :)

  2. Very creative story with the emoji prompts. I agree with the "unknown" that the details such as the fries being hot the aux cord really make it. How did you think of including a horse and carriage?
