Can you read this paragraph please?

I’m supposed to to write 10-15 sentences about the feeling of preparing and drinking hot chocolate on a cold winters day. It’s an adjective assignment. Please tell me if I should edit, add, or remove anything

My legs felt heavy from exhaustion as I walked toward the loud whistling – almost irritating – sound of the kettle. Every step is a challenge, it’s as though if I make one mistake, the heavy weight will make me fall over. As I approach the sharp, now painful noise, I quickly reached for the outlet and pulled the plug that created the annoying sound. With relief, I grab the kettle and pour the boiling water into the prepared mug. The steam escaped almost immediately, and I watched it create vague images in the air that only I can see. I look down and see the hot water blend together with powder to create a warm, brown, sweetly scented treat. I reach to grab the mug, focused only on the chocolaty goodness that lies in it. I grab the mug without hesitation, and took my first sip. A sudden feel of a hot pain ran across the surface of my tongue, but other sensations soon followed. I tasted a great pleasure of a creamy, rich treat that was sweet in the right way. The marshmallows just added to the creamy taste, and they melted away more quickly than I can devour the drink. I slowly put down the empty mug after a short while of finishing it, and I stood there for a moment. I looked outside, and I saw the wind gently carry small snowflakes to other locations. I looked at the fireplace in my house, and saw the warm colours of the flames warm the air around it. And in that moment, I have never felt so content.

        Major water leakage somewhere under the bonnet, help!?

        Thursday, April 21st, 2011

        Right from the beginning:- I have got an O2 reg ford fiesta, 114,000 miles on the clock.
        about 3 months ago i had a water leakage from the core plug, found a little hole that it was bursting water from, had called the AA to confirm this, he put a temporary putty on it till it got towed to the garage to which they charged me £120 to get fixed, was an awkward part to change.
        Then, water was still leaking, had a pipe changed near the back on the engine. Can’t remember where it was coming from. Had that fixed. Then was driving again, and the bonnet was steaming. i stopped the car, let it cool down, looked in the water bottle, no water left! So obviously there was another leak. Took it back to the garage, they said it could be the water pump, so left it there for them to look at, and it turned out to be the water housing unit, cost me around £70 supply and fit.
        The same weekend i also had my MOT, went through with a few minor adjustments.
        Was determined that my car was ok…untillast thursday, i travelled about 5 miles to my friends house, stopped on the way and there steam coming from under the bonnet again, i got out my car and there was rusty water pouring out really fast. Didn’t wanna stay on the busy main road so i managed to get it to my friends house, i called the AA, they came out, had a look at my water bottle, it was full, but noticed the pressure cap wasn’t on properly. Then he did a pressure test, he said it was fine, so this meant there was no leakages. His advice that night was to get a new pressure cap and to put some more coolant in. So we did this the next day, cost me £7. THEN…I was taking my mom food shopping last night, just a mile into my journey the temperature light came on so we stopped outside my nans house which was just around the corner. Opened the bonnet and it was sissing from the water, so we waited for it to cool down again, opened the water bottle and there was no water left. We filled a kettle up and poured it in, still wasn’t full but it was an improvement. So we carried on, it was only an extra 2 miles, stopped at Morrisons, went round did the shopping etc, bought 2 bottles of water just in case. Got back to the car opened it up again, the water was low again! so i poured a 2 litre bottle of water in and got my car back home. Woke up this morning, it was low again, my dad had to top it up with yet more water.
        So, we’ve had the core plug changed, a pipe near the back on the right hand side. the water housing unit, a new pressure cap. What else can it be. We now think it could be something to do with the radiator. The car is booked in for tomorrow at our local garage, but was just wondering if there are any experts out there that could give me abit more of advice. Would really appreciate it, sorry for the huge essay!.
        Have noticed that there leak mainly happens whilst the engine is running, so its obviously when its trying to circulate. And also, the water is coming from the very front of the car, sort of behind the number plate.
        If it is the radiator, is it advisable not to drive?

          How to i fix my story and add the twist PLEASE HELP ME its sooo important?

          Wednesday, December 29th, 2010

          the twist is that there both dead

          it had been sometime since she heard her grandfather recite the old superstition ‘One for sorrow , two for joy, three for a girl four for a ……………..’’ he had stopped and looked at her , they laughed ‘ a boy ‘ she said ‘ five for silver six for gold ‘’ they continued ‘ seven for a secret never to be told’ .

          ‘? ’Claire said, smiling at the thought of having a baby brother as she had never really liked the idea of having a baby sister that much anyway. There was a calm silence, not at all awkward. Both Claire and her granddad sat on the old wooden bench in the back garden. ‘I guess so’ her granddad said with a smile counting the magpies once more to be sure , defiantly four . The house had been calm for the first time in weeks. The smell of fresh cut grass filled the house. The spare room wasn’t going to be spare for much longer. Claire followed her granddad into the kitchen and ran up the stairs, banging on each wooden step as her feet hit them. Her granddad turned on the kettle and walked to the end of the stairs and called up to Claire ‘you wont be able to make that much noise when the baby comes you where like a heard of elephants running up them stairs!’
          ‘I know’ Claire laughed.

          The kettle began shaking and screaming. It always managed to give Claire a fright even though she expected it. She ran down the stairs and lifted it of the cooker and switched off the heat. The steam erupted out of the kettle and the boiling hot water turn brown in the cup. Her granddad came in from the living room, into the kitchen and said ‘here let me do that, go on back up to your room and let me do that’. ‘No’ she said firmly ‘ill make the tea go back into the living room and watch TV’. Claire went to reach for a spoon, but stopped slowly turning her head to check the coast was clear and quickly sprung up on her tiptoes and began drawing stars and hearts laughing because she knew exactly what her mother would say it she caught her ‘ dirtying the windows’ . She grabbed a spoon and put three sugars in her granddads tea, just the way he liked it and carried it into him.

          if you have any ideas for what i can do please help me because its far to short and im running out of time

          I think it is electrical to thermal in terms of the heating coils. What energy transformation is involved between the heating coil and water which produces steam?

          Where can I have a similie ein this poem?

          Friday, August 27th, 2010

          So much depends on a black tea kettle,
          Silvery steam rushing out of the open cap,
          Hanging on a skinny brown stick,
          Over an orange and red fire.
