Authors Note: I wrote about the 32 inch fla-screen TV I got for Christmas, it went through a lot before i opened it on Christmas morning.
I could feel the touch of all the hands on me, adding parts to the inside of my screen. All the cords and wires were finally all installed and I felt totally alive. Then I hear the power drills putting the cold new screws into my back so I was all one piece. Then all of the sudden there was so much motion, I was being carried by a man who set me in a box filled with white padding. I was on a big cart with many other boxes, and then we were all put in a big truck. And it all went dark when the big doors slammed shut. I could feel the vibration of the truck starting; it started to pull forward slowly.
After awhile of sitting in the dark the truck stopped. The doors swung open and let in the blinding light from the morning sun. I was one of the first boxes to get put on a big cart, I got pushed through two swinging doors and through aisles and I saw a bunch of other boxes with pictures of different things like me. There were things smaller then me and things that were two times my size. There were people walking around everywhere. I didn’t know what to think of it, I saw people hauling big boxes out of the automatic sliding doors. Next thing I knew I was set on a big shelf with a few boxes in front of me.
I realized what was going on as I kept moving up the live to the first box. People would take the box in the front and take it with them, wherever they were going… I would soon find out! I was now in the front of all the other boxes. I immediately saw a mad coming my way, He looked at me closely then he reached out and picked me up. It was so exciting. I was finally going to find out where the people take us after they take us out of the store. Then I got set down, I was confused I didn’t understand why he set me back down. It was quiet, then I heard a loud beep and I was carried out of the store by the man. He was walking towards a black car. He opened the back of the car and set me carefully inside, he made sure the door was close and he went to a different door and got in. I felt the same vibration as I did before. Before I knew it we drove away.
It was a short drive, we were stopped in a dark place. And then he opened the back door and pulled me out of the car and carried me inside. He set me on a big piece of paper and pulled each side over me and it stuck there then he pulled the sides over and all I could see now was white paper. A couple of days later I was taken out of a closet where he put me after he wrapped me and the paper. I was being carried upward and then I was set down by something that had lights all over it, I could faintly see the colorful lights through the paper that was surrounding me.
I figured whatever was happening wouldn’t be bad so I just sat there then it started to get brighter the longer I was sitting there. All the sudden the paper surrounding me was being taken off the box I had been in for quite some time now. It was a girl, she looked happy and excited, I saw the man that had brought me here. He was smiling at her joy when she opened my box. That day I was set up and put on a stand and He plugged me into more cords and then he turned me on. It was an exciting day for me and the girl.
