As the sky was getting darker I was getting more scared.  I have watched many movies about people getting stuck on the top of mountains and stories of people getting lost in forests, on the news. They often find  people when they are able to make a big S.O.S on the ground,  the helicopters find it easier to spot and save them.  There was one story where a boy went missing and they charged the parents thousands of dollars after they found him.  Gosh, I feel bad for my parents, but what am I doing feeling bad for them, I am the one stuck on the mountain.... in the DARK!  Ok ...now lets get it together I thought.... I should make a big S.O.S pattern in the snow or at least make a fire.  

I was frozen.  My hands were shaking and I was numb all over.  I checked what time it was. It was  almost ten thirty.  I had no choice, I had to start a fire.  I searched for sticks close by but there were none to be found.  Finally after a few minutes I had found two.   I tried rubbing them together and spinning one on the other like I've seen on TV,  but it didn't work.  It seemed like nothing would.  I started to fill with anger and smacked the sticks together as hard as I could.  "WHY!?!" I yelled at the top of my lungs.  Why did I ever care what Tessa and Isabelle thought.  "Those butt heads ruined my life!" I yelled. "WHY?!?WHY!?!WHY?!? Why do they want to ruin peoples lives?!?  They should have the terrible lives if anybody does!!"  I have never been so angry in my life before.  I started to punch and kick the snow as hard as I could.   It seemed as if they went from being my BFF's  to suddenly being total butt headed monsters.  That night I ended up crying myself to sleep with anger and fear.  I woke  up at about five o'clock in the morning.   I had a terrible migraine and a frozen body, every time I moved it ached.  I was starving and becoming dehydrated.
