Trip to Egypt.

I sat there, listening to the radio. See I bought this ticket so I could win a trip to Egypt. I couldn't wait for the results. I had dreamed about going to Egypt since I was 10. I had watched this movie about Egypt, I think it was the curse of the mummy, and I loved it.

"And after these messages, we will announce the winner of the fantastic 1 month trip to Egypt. We will be right back." Said the DJ on the radio. Messages mean a 5-minute ad break.

"Argh I hate ad breaks. I wish no one had even invented them." I screamed out laud as I went to the kitchen to make myself a sandwich. I hope I do win, I thought to myself but if I do will I take someone with me or go myself. The have said that you get an extra thousand if you go alone.

"And we're back. As you know each morning we ask a different question each day and today's question is 'have you ever walked in on someone in the shower.' It could be someone of same sex or of the opposite sex. Call in with your story. But first the winner of the trip to Egypt."

"Thank god." I said to myself.

"Drum roll please." Some drums start rolling, " the winner is Summer Jennings. To validate that you are the winner you need to ring the station during the hour." He said.

"O-my-God!!!! I won I won I won." I grabbed for the phone and dialled the stations number. After 3 rings the station picked up.

"Hello this is Jimmy Johnson from safm morning breakfast crew how can I help you. You have 1 minute to talk. Make it quick." He said.

"Hi I am Summer Jennings and I won the trip to Egypt." I said in one breath.

"Yes ok we will need you to bring your drivers licence to the air port and your pass port." He said.

"Ok." Was all I could say.

"Hold on a sec," he said. There was a pause and then I heard him say, " Were back and we have with us on the line the winner of the fabulous trip to Egypt. Summer Jennings. It is that easy folks buy listen win and ring. Ok we are going to go to a few songs while we talk to the winner. Here they are." He said and then another pause and he said to me:

"Is there a number we can reach you on to tell you when you will leave." He asked me.

"Yes it is (08) 89432175." I answered him.

"ok one more question, are you going alone or with someone?" he asked.

"Alone I think I mean I need the extra cash to get souvenirs and stuff." I said.

"yes ok you will be getting the $5000 plus the extra $1000 for the spare ticket." He said.

"O-My-God." Was all I could say.

"Ok that's all I think. So we will call you with the details of when your flight leaves. Congratulations and seeya." He said.

"Ok thanks and seeya then." I said then hung up the phone.

I went to start packing because I wasn't sure when they would ring me. While I was in the bathroom getting my toiletries the phone rang.

"Congratulations." Was all I heard.

"Thanks mum." I said.

"I can't believe you are going alone. Why don't you take Jake?" she asked.

"Because we broke up like a month ago cause he cheated on me. You know that why do you keep asking?" I said.

"Only because he was a good guy." She said.

"Yeah a guy who cheated on me with another girl and that girl happened to be my best friend. Mum u don't need to keep asking me cause you are going to get the same answer." I said back

"Ok, ok no need to jump down the line. Anyways I just wanted to congratulate you and so does your father. I have to go someone is at the door." She said.

"Ok say hi to dad. I will call before I go. Seeya." I said back.

I thought to myself that I need someone to watch my house for a month. And I was wondering who that would be. Then I thought of my sister. I rang and she said she would on the condition that she would not have any parties. So now that is sorted I went back to my packing.
