• box city

  So last night i slept in card board boxes, refrigerator boxes actually. So i was getting this box ready for my bed with lots of duct tape, lots of duct tape. i made a completely closed off box for my bedroom so no wind would hit, me then a parlor to enter my box with. I assumed everyone would do something like this to keep warm i was wrong. Some of the girls had windows in their's and were going to freeze. i was honestly worried about them but, i stayed out of their business.

  I slept on a tarp and in a 0 degree sleeping bag, it reminded me of camping in yellowstone national park when it snowed, it was chilly but i was relatively warmer than the others, i came out of my sleeping chamber and noticed a twenty degree temperature difference between the chamber and the parlor. Needless to say i was rather happy to be in the semi-warmth. Then i wondered about the people who actually had to live like this, i was very thankful for my house that i normally sleep in, but yet again i was also thankful for my box because without it i would be freezing.

  i put polka dots all over it as you can see in my picture and told my dad repeatedly i wanted to go back home and get in my bed, but to keep our minds off of it we played games like hide and seek and sardines. I had a lot of fun last night and i hope to do it again sometime soon, but not the day before my beauty pageant again. Today i will be doing a beauty pageant and i hope i can share with the audience about my experience.

  Would you ever sleep in a box for charity?
