My Story

As I walk  through and open the double doors I see 6 year old kids getting happy because their mum is hiring them out dora the explorer platinum edition. I continue walking past various sections from action to drama until I find Playstation games. I search for a few minutes to find the game I was looking for but I had no luck. I left the store feeling empty unlike the 6 year old.

Comment

I think I was in the video store. You kind of used desritpive language to show where you were. But it wasn’t that clear, eventually I got it but until I realised that I thought it was a gaming store. Overall you did a good job
