Enchanted

PREFACE

It's 11:55 PM, and I've been staring at this damn computer screen for hours. I realize that time doesn't move any faster when I stare at the clock on the bottom right corner of my laptop. In fact, it actually makes the time go by slower, but with the mindset that I currently have, I can't risk the chance to even blink and lose what I've been dying to get for the past year.

11:56 PM

I can feel my fingers starting to shake. My arms are covered in goosebumps as I stare blankly at the web page that is opened in front of me. I can see their eyes gazing into mine, their smiles as contagious as laughter. The box below their icon shows a countdown that is also slowly ticking the seconds by, waiting to open the gates to my paradise; my once in a lifetime opportunity.

11:58 PM

My senses are running havoc, I've got my credit card in my palm, covered in my kung-fu gripped fingers along its plastic edges causing a great deal of pain to my sensitive skin, but my mind is too focused on the event that is soon to take place.

11:59 PM

My mind is flustered, I can't compose a straight thought other than the faint attempt not to forget any important information that I may need to apply while filling out the ord..

12:00 AM

OH FUCK! I notice that the clock had struck midnight, and my fingers jolted alive as I press "F5" on my keyboard to refresh the page. I scroll down as it reloads past the 5 faces of god, and find the magical button that will lead me up the stairway to heaven. As I take a quick breath, the page loads and it immediately demands my personal information.

It asked for a couple other things, but I don't believe it is necessary for me to note those. I quickly type in the correct information, skimming to make sure I spelled everything right. As I finish my review of my answers, I continue to scroll down and click "Make Payment Now" as the web page drops more boxes for me to fill out with my credit card information.

I enter the 16 unique digits that match my visa card, add the expiration date and security code and return to scrolling down the page looking for any sort of "Continue" button. Hidden by an ad, (stupid html) I am able to slightly click on the left edge of the button and it leads me to my online receipt.
