Hurray! It´s Saturday! It´s time to go to the movies. I love this theater. Its seats are comfortable. This move - it's supposed to be fantastic. It´s long, though. I adore its characters. Its credits will show who they are. It's great to go to the movies with friends. It's also fun to go out and talk about movies later. If its plot is exciting, we´ll talk about a movie forever!

I would like to go shopping and then to dinner. When I graduate, then I will get a job. It's warmer today than yesterday. If we clean up, then we can go out.

Last week, I went to the shopping mall with my friends. We wanted to buy a lot of things but had not much money with us. So, we decided to come back another day after we receive our next paycheck. We would like to buy some clothes so we can wear them to our class party next week. It will be really fun to go there and see our classmates.
It was a windy bone chilling day. In fact, it was the kind of day when everyone wanted to stay indoors to avoid the weather. As I sat bored, alone inside my house with nothing to do, I had a sudden idea, I would test my strength, courage and endurance by going for a walk. Anyway, so I bundled myself up in my jeans, jacket, boots scarf, and mitts and stepped outside. Just as I realized I had left my keys and cell phone on the kitchen table, the wind blew the door shut behind me. Crash! I was locked out. When my parents arrived home two hours later to find me shivering on the front porch they asked me, “What on earth are you doing out here in weather like”? This my blue lips were just too cold to explain, but inside I realized that perhaps one should practice courage in warmer climates.
