Summer is coming and that means it's time to have fun and carelessly do whatever you want. I have some exciting things to do for this summer.

1. I'm going to watch a lot of American TV shows to improve my English  2.Moreover I'm going to read some books, but 3. I'm not going to read  boring and long novels, something light and interesting.

4. I'm definitely going to go swimming somewhere. 5. Also I'm going to improve my cooking skills, because I'm not so good at it. 6. I hope I'm not going to waste all of my time on social sites because I want my summer holidays to be productive and fun.

It was a windy afternoon. My friends and I HAVE ARRANGED to meet at my house to watch the Football Cup Final together. After I HAD FINISHED school, I WENT to the supermarket to buy lots of soft drinks.When my friends ARRIVED | HAD ALREADY MADE popcorn. By the end of the first half, we ATE all the popcorn and the snacks my friends HAD BROUGHT.While we WERE WATCHING the second half, something WENT wrong. We HAD no picture on the TV. Maybe it was because of the strong winds outside.Unfortunately, we MISSED the end of the match and we were all very disappointed.
