The exercise:
Today marks the start of the one year countdown to the Winter Olympics here in Vancouver. I couldn't resist the temptation, so today's starter is: the countdown.
Mine:
The second hand edges inexorably towards the patiently waiting twelve. The minute hand prepares for one final leap.
We watch with clamoring hearts and silent breaths. Our eyes no longer blink, our thoughts are still. The only sound that reaches our ears is the ominous tick, tick, tick of the clock.
At last the moment is here; the final second has been counted, the closing minute now lost to history.
Midnight has come.
