She Finally Did It!

Mon, March 9,2009 SHE FINALLY DID IT! Reported By: Amelia Gopaul
15 year old Priscilla Ramlochan took it upon herself to carry out a big responsibility on her shoulder;taking out the garbage to the garbage shoot on her apartment floor.
On Saturday, March 7,2009, 15 year old Priscilla Ramlochan performed the duty of taking out not one but two full stinky garbage bags. This has certainly come as a surprise to Gowan neighbourhood, as Priscilla has never done before.
According to a number of eyewitnesses living on the seventh floor, they say they heard a door being opened and the rustling of what sounded like bags. Two eyewitnesses who looked into their peepholes said they saw Priscilla holding the two bags in front of her and she then closed the door behind her. Priscilla was quickly walking through the hall barefoot. Every now and then she would for some reason turn around mabey to see if someone was coming; she looked cautious. Eyewitnesses also added that Priscilla in a haste opened the door to the garbage shoot and quickly dumped bag after bag of the garbage. Priscilla then was running back to her apartment where she closed the door behind her.
19 year old David Sanchopolous who is a friendly neighbour said; "When I looked through that peephole and saw Priscilla, I thought Oh My God, it's a miracle! What brought this on in her, i thought for the rest of the night."
The superintendent of #60 Gowan avenue also has something to say in this miraculous event;"From what I heard, Priscilla is a couch potato, she detests cleaning and especially taking out the garbage. It's reassuring to know that Priscilla has decided to contribute to ensuring the cleanliness of our building. It makes my job that much easier to not have rodents and flies attracting to the garbage onside an apartment.
Priscilla's parents, Caroline and Sooklal were at work at the time of the event but did have this to say; "When we found out from the neighbours of what a good deed Priscilla had done, we simply thought they were pulling a prank on us. But when we asked Priscilla herself if this was true, she said yes. We are indeed proud of having raised such a wonderful daughter who knows what the right thing to do is. I just hope we live to see such a miraculous event occur again."
We certainly do hope to see more of such good being done in our society. But for now here's to Priscilla Ramlochan.

lol, funny!xD Sounds like my little brother. He never takes out the garbage and recycling unless you tell him to, but even then he takes a long time to do it. There's a bit of unnecessary repetion on the second paragraph, telling readers her age and full name.
