The MAGIC box!!

Today we all were blindfolded and had to seek the object in the magic box.

It was then my turn, I was very excited because I felt like a pirate digging for treasure, but then my nervousness rose up and the daydream turned in a nightmare, My hand started to get eaten by an ALLIGATOR.

The blind was covering my face. I really thought I was gonna get a hard one but it ended up being a hard object with an square up top and  tube shape down the bottom. At the end there was also a circular hole with a price tag. This object also had pointy sticks on the base aiming up which also  felt like little knives stabbing me,.This object also had a convex back.

The object I turned to have was a… BRUSH. Once I figured it out I sat back down and continued with the show.

I hope we can do it again but this time with… SLIME.

During this game I will write what you are feeling on the board.” “EWW” Syraia - lee announced feeling disgusted, as we carried on with the game (Everyone started giggle since it was so disgusting. “HEHE”.
