5.6. Read about special day in Sandra’s life. Remember a special day in your life and write a composition about it:

Sandra

A special day in my life

Days are usually alike, we go to study, see our friends and have some duties at home. But everybody has some days in his life that will never be forgotten.

The special day I remember was during a holiday and I think that the most special days for young people happen during holidays.

It was a sunny day in July and I was spending time at my Granny’s home in the country. The house was situated close to the lake. A group of young people came to the village. They wanted to put up a tent near the lake. It was prohibited to put up tents in the wood and they came to my grandmother and asked her to allow them to camp on her meadow close to the lake. I was still sleeping when they came but later my Granny said they were three boys and two girls. They were really nice and she let them set up the tents and invited them for breakfast. As they were of my age she thought they would be a good company for me. They were from the same city as I was. And she was right. I liked from the first sight one of the boys named Alex.

So I had not only a good company during the holidays but on that special day I met Alex who is still my boyfriend. That is why it was such a special day for me.
