Read the following passage. Find examples of simile and metaphor.

I looked out the window of my little apartment on Christmas Eve; the air was cold as ice. I overlooked the sea of people in the bustling city of New York. Everyone was doing their last-minute Christmas shopping, all running around like the wind. I waited, as stiff as a board, looking for the little silver Volkswagen in the swarm of vehicles below. Mom, Dad, and my two little sisters were going to be here soon.
