Homework (Class on Jan 27th) One day, my friend Peggy asked me if I would like to go out with them for a party. Firstly, I said NO to Peggy because I prefer to at home. However, when Peggy said some handsome guys would go to the party and it’s possible to know one to have a romantic meeting. I changed my mind. I went to the party independently, which had begun for a while. I found someone who I was familiar to, so came to them to talk with each other. Later, I saw Peggy came to me and around her, there was a man I didn’t know before. Peggy introduced him to me, he was friend of Peggy’s brother. His name is Jack. I did mantra to myself; “calm down, do not angry, it’s in the public†In the end, I drank up my beverage and took this opportunity to finish this conversation. |
